TS400/TS410 Installation Instructions

Detection Devices

There are several types of detection devices
available which are suitable for domestic
installations as follows:

Passive Infra-Red (PIR)

A detector which detects movement of an
intruder by the change in infra-red body heat.
When fitting PIRs, refer to the installation instructions
supplied with the unit. In general there are two
types of PIR "Standard" and "Latching". Normally
the standard type is used where one detector per
zone is fitted and a six-core cable is required for
connection. The latching type is used when more
than one detector is fitted to a zone, the latch
facility allows the user to identify the triggered
detector by means of the indicator LED on the
detector "latching" on. If latching detectors are
used an eight-core cable is required for
connection.

Magnetic Contacts

Magnetic contacts consist of an electrical switch
which is operated by a magnet. They come in two
versions, the "Flush" type is designed to be fitted
into the top or side of the door/window. The
"Su rf ac e " typ e i s de si g ne d to fi tt ed to
doors/windows where it is not possible to use flush
contacts e.g. garage doors, UPVC windows etc.
Both types of contacts require a four-core cable
for connections.

Personal Attack (PA) Button

Normally PA buttons are located by the front door
or adjacent to the bed, and preferably out of
reach to small children. Pressing the button at any
time will generate a full alarm. Some PA buttons
auto reset and some require a key to reset them. In
both cases the control panel must be reset. PA
buttons require a four-core cable for connections.

Vibration Detectors

Vibration detectors are normally fitted to windows
or door frames. They are triggered when the
device senses a shock attack. Vibration detectors
require a six-core cable for connections.

Smoke/Heat Detectors

12V Smoke or heat detectors may be connected
to the system to provide additional protection
against fire. When activated a distinctive internal
sounder tone is generated and the external
sounder is pulsed. Smoke detectors require a
four-core cable for connections.

Final Exit

This is the point at which the user leaves and enters
the premises (normally the front door). When
setting the system the user must leave the
protected area via the exit route and through the
Final Exit zone. When re-entering the premises the
user must activate the Final Exit zone to start the
entry timer which allows the user time to gain
access to the control panel to unset the system. If
the user enters the premises through any other
point and triggers a detection device a full alarm
w ill be gen er ated. The s ys tem may be
programmed to set after the exit timer has expired
or by the operation of the Final Exit detection
device.

Auxiliary Tamper

The tamper protection for all zones and any
auxiliary devices such as the speech dialler must
be wired in a continuous loop and then be
connected to the auxiliary tamper terminals.

Keyswitch

An optional keyswitch may be fitted to the system
to allow the user to set and unset (or part-set and
unset) the system using a physical key rather than
a four digit passcode.
