next section. It is acceptable to enroll and install each device one by one rather than enrolling all the
devices then installing them. If you use this method, the CP-3500D has to remain in enrollment mode
during installation and the devices will have to be tested for alarm operation after enrollment and
installation of all the devices, annunciators and repeaters is completed.
3.4.2 Installing the Annunciators, Repeaters and Devices
Warning: All devices, annunciators and repeaters must be enrolled as described in the
previous section prior to installing them.
This section assumes the devices, annunciators and
repeaters have already been enrolled to the CP-3500D. After enrolling, the next step is to mount the
devices, annunciators and repeaters at their locations.
Important: As you install each device and
repeater make a list of their serial numbers along with a description of the mounting location.
This information is necessary so it can be entered into the description field for each device
and repeater.
During installation the CP-3500D can be placed in test mode or left in normal
operation. Placing the panel into test mode will abort any audible notification devices, NAC circuits or
CP-3500D alarm outputs from activating. Leaving the CP-3500D in normal operating mode will allow
all alarm functions to operate normally. The devices intended to directly communicate with the CP-
3500D should be installed first. Insert the battery in the device then hold the device at its desired
position and generate a signal survey transmission from it. Refer to the individual device manual and
the signal survey section of this manual for signal survey instructions. If the signal is acceptable the
device may be installed at that location. Slight transmitter location or orientation adjustments may
have to be made in order to obtain acceptable signal strength results. Do not mount any device
unless acceptable signal strength indicating tone is heard from the sounder in the device being
tested. Once the device is mounted confirm acceptable signal strength once more to insure proper
operation. After the device has been installed and signal verified, activate the device for an alarm
signal transmission and verify proper alarm reception and proper site specific programming
operations. Next proceed with the first repeater location closest to the CP-3500D panel. Temporarily
connect the backup batteries to power the repeater, hold it in its intended mounting location and
perform a signal survey test. If the test result is acceptable, install the repeater in accordance with its
instruction manual and perform a signal survey test after permanently mounting the repeater. Then
install the devices that report to that repeater verifying acceptable signal survey results for each
device as previously described. Continue out from the panel installing the balance of the repeaters
and devices until the installation is complete. It is recommended that notification appliances and
repeaters be installed at the same time. Refer to the repeater manual for a list of notification
appliances and other equipment approved for connection to a repeater. Any equipment to be
connected to the CP-3500D such as dialers, notification appliances etc. can be installed and
connected before or after installing the initiating devices. Refer to other sections of this manual for
compatible equipment. Be sure to attach the cover panel as described in section 3.4.4. After all of the
equipment has been installed and powered up be sure to reset the panel back to normal operation
mode. Various troubles may be reported while installing the devices, annunciators and repeaters.
This is normal. After all of the equipment is installed reset the panel. If any troubles exist they will be
reported within 200 seconds. Refer to the operation section of this manual for further information. The
CP-3500D should now be programmed for site specific functions required in the installation. A full
system test must be performed after programming the CP-3500D and all of the devices, annunciators
and repeaters have been installed. The system test should include initiating an alarm from all initiating
devices, verifying proper NAC activation, testing audible notification devices as well as central station
communication if applicable.
