5. TESTING PROCEDURES

5.1 Preparations

Make sure all windows and doors are closed. If all zones
are secured (undisturbed), the display should read:
R E A D Y
If the display is "NOT READY", query the control panel by
pressing the
of the problem(s) will be displayed and read aloud. Take the
necessary measures to eliminate the problem(s) before
testing the system (see next paragraph).

5.2 Diagnostic Test

To verify proper function of all detectors in the system, a
comprehensive diagnostic test is required. To perform this
test, refer to figure 4.10.

5.3 Keyfob Transmitter Test

Initiate transmission from each transmitter enrolled as a
keyfob unit (according to the list in Table A2, Appendix A).
Use each transmitter to arm the control panel AWAY and
immediately disarm it. Upon pressing the keyfob unit's
AWAY key, the ARM indicator should light.
The display should respond as follows:
A R M I N G A W A Y
P L E A S E E X I T N O W
The exit delay beeps will begin.
Press the keyfob unit's DISARM ( ) key. The ARM indicator
should extinguish, the announcement "Disarm, ready to arm"
should be heard and the display should revert to:
R E A D Y
Test the AUX button in each keyfob in accordance with the
information noted in Table A.2, Appendix A. Verify that the
AUX button performs its duty as programmed.
If the AUX ( ) button is defined as "STATUS", system
status should be displayed and announced upon
pressing the button.
If the AUX ( ) button is defined as "INSTANT", press
the AWAY button and then the AUX button. The
response should be:
A R M I N G I N S T A N T
(alternating)
P L E A S E E X I T N O W

6. MAINTENANCE

6.1 Dismounting the Control Panel

A. Remove the screw that fastens the front unit to the back
unit (see figure 3.1H).
B. Remove the 3 screws that fasten the back unit to the
mounting surface (see figure 3.1A) and remove the
control panel.

6.2 Replacing the Backup Battery

Replacement and first-time insertion of battery pack is
similar (see figure 3.1C).
With fresh battery pack, correct insertion and tightened
battery compartment lid, the TROUBLE indicator should
extinguish. However, the "MEMORY" message will now
blink in the display (caused by the "tamper" alarm you
triggered when opening the battery compartment lid). Clear
it by arming the system and immediately disarming.

button repeatedly. The source(s)
H H : M M
and the exit delay beeps will start. Press the DISARM (
key immediately to disarm.
If the AUX ( ) button is programmed as "PGM" and
permitted to activate the PGM output, pressing ( )
should activate the device wired to the PGM output.

5.4 PGM output ON/OFF Test

Go over the table in Appendix B column by column. If, for
instance, the "BY ARM AWAY" column has an "X" marked,
then arm AWAY the system and verify that the appliance
that is connected to PGM output is actually activated upon
AWAY arming.
Continue in the same manner in the following columns,
always creating the state or event that will activate the
appliance that is connected to PGM output. Verify that it is
activated as programmed.
IMPORTANT! Before testing "BY TIMER" and "BY ZONE",
make sure that these forms of control are permitted - click
repeatedly and verify that the display shows:
B Y T I M E R O N
and:
B Y S E N S O R O N
A dark box at the extreme right means that these functions
are enabled.
The easiest way for test timed activation is to select the
ninth item in the installer's menu ("10. USER SETTINGS")
and set the system clock a few minutes before the relevant
"start time". Do not forget to return the clock to the correct
time after completion of this test.

5.5 Emergency Transmitter Test

Initiate transmission from each transmitter enrolled to an
emergency zone (according to the list in Table A3,
Appendix A). For example, upon pressing the transmit
button of an emergency transmitter enrolled to zone 22,
the display should read:
Z 2 2
(alternating)
V I O L A T E D
It is advisable to let the central station know that you are
conducting this test, or just disconnect the telephone line from
the PowerMaxComplete during the test, to prevent false alarms.

6.3 Fuse Replacement

The PowerMaxComplete has two internal fuses that have
automatic reset. Therefore, there is no need to replace
fuses.
When over current condition occurs, the fuse cuts off the
circuit current. Upon fault current being removed for
several seconds, the fuse is automatically reset and allows
current flow through the circuit again.

6.4 Replacing/Relocating Detectors

Whenever maintenance work involves replacement or re-
location of detectors, always perform a full diagnostic test
according to par. 4.10.
Remember! A "poor" signal is not acceptable, as stated at
the end of the test procedure.
