PowerMaxExpress Compatible
Detectors
Each detector compatible with the PowerMaxExpress
system is packed with its own installation instructions.
Read them carefully and install as indicated.
A. PIR Motion Detectors
The wireless passive infrared (PIR) motion detectors used
in the system are of the PowerCode type. The
PowerMaxExpress is capable of "learning" each detector's
identification code and linking it to a specific zone (see par.
4.3 in this Guide). Some units are shown below:

MCPIR-3000
NEXT
or K-940 MCW
K9-85 MCW
Note: K-940 MCW, Discovery K9-80/MCW and NEXT
K9-85 MCW are pet immune units.
In addition to its unique 24-bit identification code, each
detector transmits a
information:
• The detector is in alarm (or not).
• The detector is being tampered with (or not).
• The battery voltage is low (or normal).
• "This is a supervisory message".
If any of these detectors detects motion, it sends out a
message to the alarm control panel. If the system is in the
armed state, an alarm will be triggered.
B. Magnetic Contact Transmitter
MCT-302 is a PowerCode magnetic-
contact transmitter used to detect the
opening of a door or a window. The alarm
contacts are closed as long as the door or
window remains closed.
The unit has an extra alarm input that acts as if it were a
separate wireless transmitter. It sends (or does not send) a
"restored to normal" message to the alarm system,
depending on the setting of an on-board "DIP" switch. The
"restore" message informs you, through the control panel's
display, whether the door or window is open or closed.
C. MCT-100 Wireless Adapter for Wired Detectors
MCT-100 is a PowerCode device used
mainly as a wireless adapter for 2 regular
magnetic switches installed on 2 windows in
the same room. It has two inputs, behaving
as separate wireless transmitters with
different PowerCode IDs. Each input sends
(or does not send) a "restored" message to
the alarm system, depending on the setting
of an on-board "DIP" switch.

detector equipped

enrolled to a fire zone, it initiates a
fire alarm upon detection of smoke.
E. Glass Break Detector MCT-
501 An acoustic detector equipped
with a PowerCode-type transmitter.
Since it restores automatically after
detection, this unit does not send a
restoral message to the control panel.

Transmitters
The PowerMaxExpress system is compatible with multi-
button and
transmitters that use PowerCode and CodeSecure coding
methods.
Multi-button PowerCode transmitters transmit the same
code each time the same button is pressed. They can be
used for emergency signaling. They can not be used for
arming / disarming.
CodeSecure transmitters are of the rolling code type - they
transmit a new code each time the same button is pressed.
This provides a higher security level, especially in arming /
disarming applications, because the code can not be
copied ("grabbed") by unauthorized people.
Following are the basic details of several compatible
transmitters. The possible applications for each push-
button are indicated in each drawing.
