AC Power and Backup Battery
The system is powered by a 9 Volt DC, 2.7 Amp Plug-in Power Supply, 300-04705 or 300-04065 (300-04063
in Canada). Refer to the wiring table below for wire gauge and length. In the event of an AC power loss, the
system is supported by a long life backup battery that is supervised for connection and for low voltage
conditions. If the battery is missing, or a low battery condition is detected, a “low battery” message is
displayed and a report is sent to the central station. In addition, the system will beep once every 45 seconds
to audibly indicate a low battery condition (press any key to stop the beeping).
Use only the provided 300-04705 or 300-04065 (300-04063 Canada)

supply into the AC outlet until after all wiring connections have been made. Ensure the cover is snapped
closed prior to applying AC power
The LYNX Touch is equipped with an integral, replaceable, rechargeable battery pack
