3. Installation

This manual is a quick start guide and details how to learn
Ricochet™ devices to the system, full programming details for all
other system features and functions can be found in the Premier 48
installation manual INS176 contained on the enclose CD or available
as a hard copy from your distributor.

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.

If using a hardwired expander in addition to the wireless
devices, numbering should start at address 2.
4: Install the External Sounder
Install the external sounder and connect to the control panel.
5: Other Wiring
Complete all other wiring including speakers, telephone line and
output connections etc.
6: Applying Power to the Control Panel
Once steps 1 to 5 are completed, power can be applied to the

control panel.

When applying power for the first time, the factory default settings
must be loaded. 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 the Premier Quick
Reference supplied with your panel.
8: Learn Ricochet™ Devices
Learn devices to the system and place them in their desired location.
9: Programming the Control Panel
Please refer to INS176 for instructions on programming the control
panel.
10: Testing the System
Test the system thoroughly to ensure that all features and functions
operate as required.

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
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
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 supply MUST incorporate 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
