WARNING
Installation and maintenance shall be
performed by qualified service personnel
only.
CAUTION
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by
an incorrect type. dispose of used batteries
according to the instructions on the battery.
ADSL NOTICE
Adsl broadband data can interfere with the
operation of your alarm dialler.
It is recommended that a quality Adsl filter be
installed as per the filter manufacturer's guidelines
in all premises with an alarm dialler installed.
ESD WARNING
(Electrostatic discharge).
Once properly installed, Ness control panels are
well protected from Esd. However, take note of
the following precautions during installation.
the human body can generate static electricity
when it is insulated from earth - for instance by
walking over carpet.
Esd occurs (and a small shock is sometimes felt)
if an earthed metal object is then touched.
the installer should be aware that if he generates
static electricity while installing the panel and then
discharges this static electricity into the internal
components on the main circuit board or the
keypad board, then Esd damage may occur.
the circuit board should not be unwrapped until it
is actually ready to be installed.
methods to avoid electrostatic build-up.
1. Use a foot strap, a wrist strap, or a grounding
mat. the aim is to connect the body to earth
to discharge static before it builds up. the
connection is a high resistance for personnel
safety.
2. If the above is not available, then it is
advisable to wear clothing that will minimise
the build-up of static.
3. Handle circuit boards by the edges. Avoid
touching any components on the board as
the integrated circuits, in particular, are not
guaranteed by their manufacturers to be safe
from Esd.
4. to minimise the build-up of static, avoid
walking around as much as possible while
working on the installation.
5. touch an earthed object to discharge any
static before working on the installation.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
the location of the main panel housing and all keypads should be
in an area that is within the protected area of the premises. A linen
closet or cupboard are good examples as these are generally located
in the centre of the premises.
positioning of the movement detectors should be considered as the
incorrect position may cause unwanted alarms.
1. Remove the housing lid.
2. Remove the battery from the base.
3. securely mount the rear panel housing to a secure location.
4. Run all cabling needed for the installation.
5. before removing the circuit board from its protective wrapping.
6. Insert the pCb stand-offs in the panel and then plug the circuit
board onto the stand-offs.
7. Wire to the circuit board terminal blocks, as per the wiring
instructions shown in this installation manual.
8. Replace the battery.
9. Insert the panel tamper bracket as shown below.
10. Close the lid and program the panel as required.
