Device Configuration
Device parameters and related system
behavior can be configured from the KP-250
PG2 keypad or from a remote location.
Each PowerG device has its own settings
which can be configured through the KP-250
PG2 keypad by entering the "DEVICE
SETTINGS" menu.
To configure devices from the KP-250
PG2:
see KP-250 PG2 Installer’s Guide,
Chapter 3 Programming and also the
individual device's Installation Instructions.
To configure devices from a remote
location:
refer to the PowerManage User's
Guide Chapter 3 Working with Panels and to
the Remote Programmer PC software User's
Guide, Chapters 6 and 7.
Diagnostics of the
control panel and
peripherals
You can test the function of all wireless
sensors deployed throughout the protected
area, to collect information about the
received signal strength from each
transmitter and to review accumulated data
after the test.
To perform diagnostics and to obtain
signal strength indication:
see KP-250
PG2 Installer’s Guide, section 3.9
Diagnostics
Conducting periodic
tests
The system should be tested at least once a
week and after an alarm. The periodic test
can be conducted locally or from a remote
location (with the assistance from a non-
technical person in the house).
To conduct a walk test locally
: see KP-250
PG2 Installer’s Guide, Chapter 4 Periodic
Test by Installer Code or KP-250 PG2 User’s
Guide, Chapter 8 Periodic Test by User
Code
To conduct a walk test from remote
location:
refer to the Remote Programmer
PC software User's Guide, Chapter 6 Data
Details Tables.
Partitions
The partitioning feature, when enabled,
divides your alarm system into distinct areas
each of which operates as an individual
alarm system. Partitioning can be used in
installations where shared security systems
are more practical, such as a home office or
warehouse building.
1. Enable partitioning:
see KP-250 PG2
Installer’s Guide, section 3.13 Partitioning
2. Setup partition association for each
device:
see KP-250 PG2 Installer’s Guide,
section 3.4.2 Adding New Wireless Devices
or Wired Sensors
To understand more about partitioning:
see KP-250 PG2 Installer’s Guide,
APPENDIX B. Working with Partitions.
Two-way voice
communication
*
The PowerMaster system enables voice
communication with Monitoring Stations
To enable and configure two way voice:
see KP-250 PG2 Installer’s Guide, section
3.6.4 Configuring Events Reporting to
Monitoring Stations
Device configuration
templates
The default parameters with which a new
device is enrolled into the system can be set
before you enroll devices. This default
template saves time on device configuration.
1. Define enrollment defaults for devices:
see KP-250 PG2 Installer’s Guide, section
3.4.7 Defining Configuration Defaults for
"Device Settings"
2. Enroll or pre-enroll devices:
see KP-250
PG2 Installer’s Guide, section 3.4.2 Adding
New Wireless Devices or Wired Sensors
SirenNet - distributed

All PowerG smoke detectors are able to
function as sirens, alerting on any of 4 types of
alarm in the system: burglary, gas, fire or
flood.
Enable and configure SirenNet for each
smoke detector:
refer to the SMD-426 PG2
/ SMD-427 PG2 Installation Instructions
