Programming
The notes in the programming sections of the PowerSeries Neo Reference Manual
describing the system configurations for UL/ULC listed installations shall be
implemented.
Control of the Protected Premises
In order to have a UL certificated system, the protected area is to be under the
responsibility of one ownership and management (i.e., one business under one
name). This may be a group of buildings attached or unattached with different
addresses but under the responsibility of someone having mutual interest. The per-
son of mutual interest is not the alarm-installing company.
Note:
This does not apply to strip mall applications where each independent busi-
ness must have their own separate alarm system.
e.g.,1: a commercial partitioned system that has an office and a warehouse area in a
building where each area can be armed or disarmed independently.
e.g.,2: a residential system partitioned so that the garage area is armed separately
from the house.
Each of the above examples is under the sole responsibility of a single owner. The
bell and DACT power supply must be in a protected area including partitioned sys-
tems. The bell and DACT power supply must be located where it can be heard by
the person or persons responsible for maintaining the security system during the
daily arming cycle.
Bell Location
The alarm sounding device (bell) shall be located where it can be heard by the per-
son operating the security system during the daily arming and disarming cycle.
Protection of the Control Unit
The local control unit and the local power supply must be protected in one of the
following ways:
•
The control unit and audible alarm device must be in a protected area which
is armed 24 hours a day.
•
Each partition must arm the area protecting the control unit and the audible
alarm device power supply. This may require duplicate protection armed by
each partition. Access to this protected area, without causing and alarm, will
require that all partitions be disarmed.
•
In all cases described above, the protected area for the control unit must be
programmed as not-bypassable.
Casual Users
The installer should caution the user(s) not to give system information (e.g., codes,
bypass methods, etc.) to casual users (baby-sitters or service people). Only the
One-Time Use codes shall be given to casual users.
User Information
The installer should advise the users and note in the User’s Manual:
•
Service organization name and telephone number
•
The programmed exit time
•
The programmed entry time
•
Test system weekly
•
The installer code cannot arm or disarm the system
