MOUNTING
a
Remove front cover.
b
Disconnect the transformer supply leads from the controller Printed Circuit
Board (PCB).
Cc
Take out the controller PCB by pulling back the central retaining clip and
removing the PCB from underneath the guide rails.
d
Hang the control panel base onto the wall with the central mounting hole using
one of the screws and plugs provided.
e
If possible use a spirit level or some other means to position the control panel
squarely then drill two more holes into the wall to locate the other two screws
and plugs.
8.3
MAINS CONNECTION
a
The mains supply connector should be carefully wired to an ac mains supply
using a suitably rated 3 core cable with a current carrying capacity of not less
than 5 Amps. It should be connected to a fused spur with a fuse rating of not
more that 2 Amps.
b
The mains connections at the power supply input are coded as follows:
L
:
LIVE
E
;
EARTH
N
NEUTRAL

BATTERY
CAPACITY
It is recommended that the rechargeable battery used with the Paragon Super control
panel should be capable of powering the alarm system for a minimum of 8 hours, and
that this time period should include 20 minutes of bell/strobe operation. The minimum
battery capacity should be calculated from the current consumption of the individual
system components.
A typical example is shown below:
Non alarm currentfor control panel (7hrs 40min)
F
45mA (0.045 A)
Steady state currentfor detectors
¢
75mA (0.075A)
(eg 5x 15mA for 8 hours - Pyronix PIRs)
Typical standby currentfor external sounder
:
50mA (0.050A)
(eg Self Actuating Bell for 8 hours)
Typicalon state currentforexternalsounder(20mins)
:
350mA (0.35 A)
Alarm state currentfor control
panel (20 mins)
:
210mA (0.21 A)
Typical current
for external strobe (8 hours)
:
150mA (0.15A)
Totalbatterycapacity
=(Panelstandby currentx 7hrs 40min)
+( Detector, SAB and strobe currentx 8 hrs)
+(Panelin alarm with external sounder x 20min)

x 7.67 hrs
+ (0.075 + 0.05 +0.15)x 8 hrs
+(0.21 +0.35)x
0.33 hrs= 2.7 Amp Hours.
For this example it is recommended that you use a battery of not less than 2.8 AH.
