ACKUP
See Figure 2. The control unit operates on 12 VAC or 12 VDC. Hook up the 12 VAC transformer between
terminals No. 1 and 2 as shown in Figure 2 (NOTE: Do not connect a DC power source to terminals 1 and 2).
A built-in battery charger will keep a 12 volt sealed lead-acid battery (not included) charged for operating the
Sonalerts during power failure.
NOTE: The battery back-up is not needed for normal operation of the
CF-2C control.
If you choose to purchase a battery, only a sealed lead acid (starved, wet-cell) battery should
be used. DO NOT use a gelled-electrolyte battery. Recommended batteries are made by Yuasa Battery, Inc.;
Gates Energy Products, Inc.; Eagle Picher Industries, Inc.; Panasonic Industries, Co.; or G.S. Battery, Inc.
The positive (RED) lead connected to terminal No. 4 and the negative (BLACK) lead connected to terminal
No. 5 are provided for connections to the battery. When an outside DC power source is being used, connect
to these terminals in place of a battery.
Special note
:
During initial power-up or power-down and power-up sequence, the “Exit Delay” timer is
automatically activated. Be patient, for the CF-2C control cannot be accessed until the “Exit Delay”
timer times out. It is recommended that when the control unit is first installed that the “Exit Delay”
adjustment (potentiometer “C”) be set at minimum (fully counter-clockwise) until the system is
operational. (See “Adjusting FC-9 Exit Delay” on page 6.)

See Figure 2. A proper earth-ground is essential. A proper earth-ground is established by using an 8 foot
copper or copper-clad ground rod driven deeply into the earth.
