Visonic MCS-710 Installation Instructions

MCS-710
Fully Wireless Siren

1. INTRODUCTION

The MCS-710 is an indoor or outdoor fully wireless siren,
designed for installation in areas in which wiring action is difficult
or impossible. There is no need for an external power supply. The
MCS-710 is powered by an internal non-chargeable battery.
The siren communicates with the PowerMax+, PowerMax Pro or
PowerMaxComplete. When an identified activation command is
received from the control panel, the siren activates its sounder,
activates its flash lights and acknowledges its activation to the
alarm system.
The MCS-710 and the control panel should be located in the
same house.
