Preface

Dear Customer,
Thank you for choosing PowerMax10-G2, a highly
advanced wireless alarm control system produced by
Visonic Ltd.

Overview

The PowerMax10-G2 is a wireless alarm control
system that provides protection against burglary, fire
and tampering. In addition, it can be used to monitor
the activity of disabled or elderly people left at home.
Status information is presented visually.
The PowerMax10-G2 is governed by a control panel
(Fig. 1) designed to collect data from various sensors
that are strategically located within and along the
perimeter of the protected site (Figure 2).
In the disarmed state, the system provides you
with visual status information, and initiates an alarm
if smoke is detected or upon disturbance in a 24-
hour zone (a zone which is active 24-hours a day).
In the armed state, the system will initiate an alarm
upon detection of disturbance in any one of the
armed zones.
