5. Special Functions
Looking after People Left at Home
An important characteristic of the PowerMax10-G2 is
its ability to function in a mode contrary to the usual
behavior of an alarm system. When the system is in
the disarmed state (or even when armed "HOME"
with perimeter protection only), it can keep track of
in-house activity and will report lack of motion in
interior zones if there is no detection of motion within
predetermined time limits.
To use this characteristic, you must ask your installer
to program a specific time limit beyond which lack of
motion will be reported as a "not active" alert.
To make things clear, let us assume that an elderly,
sick or handicapped person is left unattended in a
protected site. This person, disabled or sick as he
may be, will not stay entirely still for hours. It is only
natural that even while being asleep he will turn over
in his bed from time to time. He might also wander
into the kitchen to eat or drink, or to the bathroom for
other necessities. Upon doing so, the bedroom,
bathroom and kitchen motion detectors will detect his
movement.
If, for example, the "lack of motion" time limit is set by
your installer to 6 hours, a virtual 6-hour clock will
carry out a 6-hour "countdown".
If motion is detected within the 6-hour time frame, the
countdown will restart from the beginning (the virtual
6-hour clock will be "reset") and no alert message will
be sent out.
If no motion is detected within the 6-hour time frame in
any interior zone, the control panel will send a "not-
active" alert message to the monitoring station or to
private telephones designated by the installer.
IMPORTANT! In addition, you may provide the person
confined to interiors with a single-button transmitter for
distress situations, see next paragraph.

The PowerMax10-G2 can be programmed by the
installer for selective transmission of messages to
private telephone subscribers.
The following siren signal will be sent to private
telephone upon event reporting:
*
FIRE: ON - ON - ON - pause.... (- - - - - - ......).
** BURGLAR: ON continuously (
*** EMERGENCY: 2-tone siren; like an ambulance.
The called party must acknowledge the message (as
explained later on), but if he does not respond, the
message will be transmitted repeatedly as many
times as possible within a 45-second time limit.
When the 45 seconds are up, the PowerMax10-G2
will disengage the line and call the next private
telephone number on its list.
The called party can acknowledge the message by
pressing the "2" key on the telephone keypad. As a
result, the PowerMax10-G2 will disengage the line
and consider the event duly reported.
Remote Control by SMS
PowerMax10-G2 system with GSM unit can respond
to SMS commands from any cellular telephone.
The various SMS commands are detailed in the
following table (the detailed SMS message sending
process is described in the cellular telephone user's
guide). In this table, "<code>" means 4-digit user
code and blank space simply means blank space.
