Step 6 – Installing the Control System and Transmitters
Having chosen and tested the mounting location of the Control System and each transmitter, you are now ready to
permanently install the system.
To permanently install the transmitters, refer to each device’s installation instructions (in Appendix B of this manual or
supplied individually with each product).
To install the Control System:
1.
Disconnect AC power from the Control System.
2.
Open the housing as explained in Step 1 – Temporarily Power up the System and Install SIM Card.
3.
Remove the backup battery pack. If you want to install the Control System with back tamper, it is also necessary
to disconnect the flat cable connecting the Main board to the front panel keypad and remove the Main board.
4.
Place the Control System in position against the wall and mark the upper and lower mounting holes. If using the
back tamper, also mark the hole for the back tamper screw.
5.
Install wall anchors in the appropriate positions.
6.
Thread any required cables through the wiring hole on the back cover (e.g. AC power, HA interface, Ethernet
cable, and telephone line) and make any necessary wiring connections:
a.
Connect the power cable to the AC power input on the Main board.
Always connect AC power before connecting the battery pack. Batteries are supplied
uncharged. When you first connect the battery, it is probable that the system will display a Low
Battery condition. Allow the battery to charge for at least 18 hours before use.
b.
Connect the telephone line to the Telephone Line terminal block on the GPRS module (PSTN
connector) – see p. 6,
1.4.3 GPRS/LAN Communication Module.
7.
Mount the Control System to the wall using four screws and insert the back tamper screw if required – see p.11,
2.3 Back Tamper.
The Control System must be mounted so that it shall withstand a force of at least three times
its own weight.
8.
Replace the Main Board and reconnect its peripheral modules.
9.
Connect the flat cable connecting the Main board to the front panel keypad and replace the front cover’s fastening
bands.
10.
Apply AC power.
Always connect AC power before connecting the battery pack. Batteries are supplied uncharged.
When you first connect the battery, it is probable that the system will display a Low Battery
condition. Allow the battery to charge for at least 18 hours before use.
11.
Connect the battery pack to the connector on the Main Board.
12.
Position the front cover’s top holding hooks onto the back cover and snap the front cover closed.
13.
After installing the Control System, perform the Find Modules function – see p. 73,
13.5 Find Modules.
2.3.
Back Tamper
The back tamper switch is an optional feature that provides an extra safeguard in the event that the Control System is
removed from the wall.
The back tamper switch is located on the rear side of the Control System’s Main Board and is constantly depressed by
the section of the back cover shown in Figure
2-5.
Figure
2-5: Perforated Back Tamper Release
For this feature to operate, you must insert a screw into the back tamper mounting hole – see p. 11, Step 6 – Installing
the Control System and Transmitters. When the Control System is removed from the wall, the screw causes the
perforated section of the plastic to break and remain attached to the wall. As a result, the back tamper switch is released
and an alarm is generated.
