Introduction; Specifications; General Data; Rf Section - Visonic PowerMaxExpress Installer's Manual

1. INTRODUCTION

The PowerMaxExpress is a user and installer-friendly, 29-
zone fully-supervised wireless control system.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Partitioning refers only to purchased
control panels that support the partitioning feature.
The PowerMaxExpress includes an optional partition feature.
Partitioning allows you to have up to four independently
controllable areas with different user codes assigned to each
partition. A partition can be armed or disarmed regardless of
the status of the other partitions within the system. For
example, you can define the garage as partition 1, the
basement as partition 2, the house as partition 3 and a safe
as partition 4. Since each partition is independent of other
partitions, you can arm or disarm each partition as desired
without altering the states of the other partitions. Therefore,
while arming or disarming your home this will not interfere with
the safe that you desire to arm most of the time.
