The PowerMax control panel is supplied with 3 instruction manuals:
Installation Instructions (this manual - for your exclusive use)
Programming Guide (for your exclusive use)
User's Guide (for your use during installation only. Must be handed over to the master user after testing the system).
Appendices A and B to the installation instructions will help you prepare an installation plan. Please take time to fill out the
forms - your job will become much easier and confusion will be prevented. Filling out the forms will also help you create a
list of detectors and transmitters that must be obtained for the particular application. Compatible detectors and
transmitters are listed and described briefly in Paragraphs 3.8 and 3.9 of this manual.
Remember - it is advisable to power up the control panel temporarily after unpacking and program it on the work bench, in
accordance with the installation plan. Paragraph 3.3 of this manual refers you to the programming guide.
The programming flow charts in the programming guide show all options available for each parameter. Factory defaults
are marked with a dark box to their right, and other options (that can be selected instead) are marked by clear boxes. This
method allows you to put a checkmark in the appropriate clear box whenever you deviate from the factory defaults.
To increase the backup time provided by the Ni-Cd battery (which is 4 -6 hours), we recommend the use of 6 size AA Ni-
Mh cells with a capacity of 1600 mAh (produced by GP). Under AC failure conditions, these batteries provide up to 20-
hour backup with no alarms, and up to 16 hours if an alarm occurs.
Although setting the correct time and date is one of the user tasks, we recommend that you set the time and date in the
course of programming. Access to the "User Settings" is possible through item 9 on the installer's menu (see User's
manual for exact procedure).
When you are through programming, proceed to install the system as detailed in the Installation Instructions, from
paragraph 3.4 onward.
The installer should verify line seizure. Be aware of other phone line services such as DSL.
