 Other Features

Integral sounder volume: 

The Alert Point has 2 volume settings – High and Low: this 

is determined by the position of the jumper connector configuration show below.

 

High: Jumper between centre pin and bottom pin (factory setting)

 

Low: Jumper between centre pin and top pin 

 

Note: 

Silencing the Alert Point is possible by not having the jumper fitted, but no 

sound will be produced by the integral sounder during alarm, fault or tamper conditions.

Low battery check: 

The Alert Point monitors the output power of the 9 VDC battery 

          

 

 

in 16 minute cycles. If the battery falls below the 

    

 

 

 

recommended power level the unit will display a fault, emitting 

  

 

 

 

a periodic single beep. 

Battery life: 

 

The working life of the 9 VDC battery under normal `standby’ 

 

 

 

 

condition is a minimum of 15 months: it is recommended that 

 

 

 

 

this battery is replaced at least every 15 months.

Battery back up: 

When the Alert Point is powered by a 12-30 VDC power 

 

 

 

 

supply, the 9 VDC battery will become a backup if the external 

 

 

 

 

power is lost. The unit will display a fault until the external 

    power 

has 

been 

restored.
