BEFORE PROCEEDING ANY FURTHER
- Verify that there is MicroBurst
Coverage in the area in which this unit is to be installed by either checking the coverage
selection at the AlarmNet web site
www.ADEMCO.com/alarmnet
or by calling our technical
assistance group at 1-800-222-6525. The ZIP code of the given installation site must be
known in order to determine MicroBurst availability.
1. Unpack and Initialize the Radio
•
Unpack the 7845CZ and install the antenna.
•
Remove the cover (refer to the “Removing the Cover” paragraph in Section 4).
•
Connect a fully-charged battery (ADEMCO K4362) or apply 12VDC power to TB1 from
either a control panel or a 7720V2TR. Be sure to observe the polarity.
•
Monitor the initial power-up LED sequence (refer to the “Initial Power-Up Sequence”
paragraph in Section 4). This can take several minutes.
2. Find Coverage and Select a Site
IT’S ALL ABOUT COVERAGE!!!
To be successful using this product,
you must carefully observe service availability, signal strength, and transmission
ability!
•
Verify MicroBurst
coverage using the radio status LEDs as
shown at right.
•
Choose the installation site with the
best signal strength
by
observing the signal strength (RSSI) bar graph (refer to the
“Selecting a Radio Installation Site” paragraph in Section 4 for
details).
3. Test the Site
•
Test communication with the AlarmNet C and cellular networks by
double-clicking the tamper/test switch and receiving message
validation. If desired, you can cancel validation by clicking the
tamper switch once.
•
If multiple (3 or more) failures to transmit occur (as indicated by the RED Status LED
rapidly blinking after each transmission), the location selected may be inadequate. Move
the 7845CZ to a different location and retest.
