About i-on Compact

Thank you for choosing i-on Compact – 
one of the most advanced and trusted 
means available today to protect people 
and property. The i-on Compact is a high-
reliability radio alarm system for up to 
20 zones, intended for use in small to 
medium-sized domestic applications.

Your i-on Compact is future-flexible: as 
Eaton develop new features, your alarm 
system can be updated remotely or locally 
with the latest software.

i-on Compact alarm systems provide a 
comprehensive range of communication 
options, configuration settings and 
peripheral devices, which provide the 
flexibility needed to customise the system 
to match the requirements of the most 
demanding applications.

System components

This section outlines typical components 
that your alarm system may include. Other 
components may be used, depending on 
your requirements.

Control unit

This is the main processing unit of the 
alarm system. From a user’s view, its main 
features are as follows (Figure 1):

 

• LCD display – This shows messages, 

prompts and options that guide you 
through the user interface. 

 

• Keypad – This allows you to set or 

unset the system, access user options 
and acknowledge alarms. You can 
identify yourself to the system by 
entering your unique access code at 
the keypad.

 

• Proximity tag reader – Each user 

can have a unique proximity tag. 
Presenting your tag accesses the 
system in the same way as if you had 
entered your access code.

Detectors

Detectors are devices that detect alarm 
conditions. Below are some popular 
examples, all of which can connect 
wirelessly (via radio) to the control unit. 

Note: Many other detectors are available, 
including flood, shock and glass-break 
sensors – please contact your installer for 
details.

Passive Infra-Red (PIR) 
movement detector. 
Pet-tolerant versions are 
available.

Smoke detector.

Door contact – to detect 
when doors are opened.

Perimeter PIR detector – to 
monitor external areas 
such as gardens. Dual-
sensor technology and 
pet-tolerant mode ensure 
reliable outside operation.

Note: A zone is the lowest-level item 
that you can set or unset. Since there is 
normally only one detector per zone, the 
terms “zone” and “detector” are often 
used interchangeably.

External sirens

These are mounted 
externally, high up in 
a visible location for 
deterrence. They  include 
a powerful sounder and 
strobes.  Up to 2 external 
radio sounders can be 
used.
