ALARM BOX INSTALLATION
This section provides installation instructions for the Alarm Box - Figure 16. The Alarm Box
is an optional iCOMM™ system component sold separately. The Alarm Box provides both
visual (red light) and a loud (80dBA) audible alarm that is activated whenever a water
heating appliance monitored by the CM declares a Fault or Alert condition. The alarm is
activated if the Leak Detector system component (page 10) senses water. The alarm may
also be activated if the system water temperature drops below a programmable set point
accessed on the iCOMM™ web site.
The Alarm Box can be installed near the iCOMM™ system’s CM or in a different location for
remote monitoring. Keep in mind the Display Button on the CM (Figure 21 on page 30) must
be pressed to silence the alarm when considering a remote location.
The Alarm Box is mounted on a wall. A 24 VAC plug in transformer (included) provides
power for the Alarm Box. 18/2 SJ cord connects between the Alarm Box and the CM
(communication module - page 6). Each Alarm Box comes with the items listed in Table 4.
Ensure all these parts are present before you begin the installation.
