Installation Sequence

Before attempting to install the alarm system, read this
section. Once you have an overall understanding of the
installation sequence, carefully work through each step.
1: Design the Layout
Make a rough sketch of the premises to get an idea of where
the alarm detection devices, keypads, zone expanders etc.
are to be located.
2: Mounting the Panel
The control panel should be mounted in a dry area close to
an unswitched AC power source and the incoming telephone
line (if using a communicator).
You must complete all wiring before connecting the
battery or applying AC mains to the control panel.
3: Install the Keypads and Zone Expanders
Mount and connect the keypads, zone expanders and output
modules to the control panel (see page 12 for wiring details).
4: Install the Alarm Detection Devices
Install the detection devices, PIR's, Contacts, PA Buttons etc.
and connect them to the control panel (see page 19 for wiring
details).
5: Install the External Sounder
Install the external sounder and connect to the control panel
(see page 20 for wiring details).
6: Other Wiring
Complete all other wiring including speakers, telephone line
and output connections etc. (see pages 20 - 21 for details).
7: Applying Power to the Control Panel
Once steps 1 to 6 are completed, power can be applied to
the control panel.
When applying power for the first time, the factory default
settings must be loaded (see page 26 for details). Power
should always be connected in the following order:
•
Connect the red battery lead to the positive terminal of
the battery and then connect the black battery lead to
the negative terminal
The panel will only become 'live' when the AC
Mains is connected or the 'Battery Kick-start'
button is pressed.
•
Connect the AC mains
For a complete list of factory default settings, see page 29.
8: Programming the Control Panel
Please refer to section 5 for instruction on programming the

control panel.

9: Testing the System
Test the system thoroughly to ensure that all features and
functions operate as required (see page 89 for details).

Control Panel
Mounting
Mount the control panel on a flat, plumb wall using at least
three screws of appropriate size.
It is essential to ensure that none of the fixing slots or
cable entries are accessible after fixing.
Mains cabling must be secured (e.g. with a cable tie) to
one of the anchor points provided.
Wiring the Control Panel
WARNING: ELECTRICITY CAN KILL
BEFORE connecting the control panel ALWAYS
disconnect the supply at the consumer unit.
If in ANY doubt consult a qualified electrician.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. HAZARDOUS
VOLTAGES INSIDE, NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS,
NO USER ACCESS.
ONLY connect the mains supply to the mains terminal
block, NEVER connect the mains supply directly to the
PCB.
ALWAYS refer to National Wiring Regulations when
conducting installation.
An appropriate and readily accessible disconnection
device (e.g. an unswitched fused spur) MUST be
provided as part of the installation.
The disconnection device must NOT be fitted in a
flexible cord.
Where identification of the neutral in the mains supply
is NOT possible a two-pole disconnection device
MUST be used.
The building mains
appropriate short-circuit backup protection (e.g. a fuse
or circuit breaker) of High Breaking Capacity (HBC, at
least 1500A).
Use mains cable of adequate carrying capacity for the
rated current (i.e. at least 0.75mm
