To allow programming of the system options, a unique
Installer Access Code must be entered at the Control Panel
Keypad. The Installer Access Code should be changed from
the factory default setting during programming after
installation is complete.
Note: For security reasons, once the system has been
Armed by the User Access code, the Installer Access code
cannot be used to reprogram the system.
Note: The User Access Codes and the Installer Access
Code should all be different.
PLANNING THE
INSTALLATION
GENERAL
Before attempting to install any wiring or system
components, it is recommended that a plan of the proposed
installation is prepared. This should help the installation to
be completed using the most unobtrusive and effective
methods. The following guidelines should be followed and
used in conjunction with the example provided when
preparing your own system plan.
CONTROL PANEL AND REMOTE KEYPAD
(Remote Keypad PA8 only)
The Control Panel & Remote Keypad should be located in a
position out of sight of potential intruders and in a safe location,
but accessible for system operation. Typically, the Control Panel
may be located in a small cupboard under the stairs (or other)
close to the mains supply and for ease of cable installation, with
the Keypad located adjacent to the main Entry/Exit door. An
ideal mounting height would be the same as a household light
switch or similar. If small children are in the household, a further
consideration should be given to keeping the units out of reach.
However, the final positions of the Control Panel and Keypad will
depend on the individual user’s requirements.
Note: Also consider the user’s ability to hear the Exit/Entry
tone (emitted by the Control Panel) effectively when setting
the system. It is preferable that the Exit tone can be heard
from outside the property when arming the system.
MAINS WIRING
Mains wiring to the Control Panel should come from an
independently supplied, un-switched fused connection unit
(fitted with a 3A fuse) located close to the Control Panel.
It is not advisable to connect the supply to other household
circuits, as this may cause the system to malfunction. Attempt
to keep the mains cable run as short as possible between the
fused connection unit and the Control Panel, (less than 3m).
IMPORTANT: The mains supply to this product should be
installed by a competent person (e.g. a qualified electrician)
in accordance with the instructions contained with the
product and in accordance with the appropriate clauses of
the current edition of the IEE wiring regulations (BS7671).
It would be an advantage to have the mains supply connection
unit fitted prior to commencing the installation to avoid any
unnecessary delay in fully commissioning your system.
Note: The mains wiring should be kept separate from wiring
to the detectors, both within the premises and on entering
the Control Panel. Always route mains and detector wiring
separately, preferably 300mm apart.
DETECTOR WIRING
Where only one detector per Zone is to be connected, the
cable should be run directly to the detector. However, if
more than one detector is to be connected to a Zone, either
(a) run all cables back to the Control Panel or (b) run one
cable to the Control Panel and link the detector contacts in
‘Series’ and power supplies in ‘Parallel’. (Refer to example
installation wiring diagrams on pages 12-13.
MAGNETIC CONTACTS
The Magnetic Contact is suitable for mounting in dry interior
locations only.
Decide which doors and windows are to be protected by fitting
Magnetic Contact switches. Usually the front and back doors
will have Magnetic Contact Switches fitted. Additional contacts
may be fitted where required to other more vulnerable doors or
windows, e.g. garage, patio and conservatory doors etc.
Note: It is not recommended to connect more than ten Magnetic
Contacts to any one Zone, as this may cause difficulty in wiring
and hinder any attempt to remedy wiring faults efficiently.
PIR MOVEMENT DETECTORS
When considering and deciding upon the mounting position
for the detector the following points should be considered to
ensure trouble free operation:
