1. Introduction to the IDS 1632
The IDS 1632 is a versatile, microprocessor-based sixteen-zone Alarm Panel. There are eight partitions
and the panel can be expanded to monitor thirty two burglary zones. Most features are optional and may
be programmed directly through the keypad. There is a dedicated Panic zone, monitored siren output,
auxiliary power outputs and eight (expandable to twelve) programmable outputs which may be
programmed to perform various trigger/switching functions.
The panel interfaces with a GPRS module (optional), allowing remote control by SMS, as well
as SMS reporting to up to 5 cellphone users. An optional Voice Module reports to the user in English and
provides a voice-prompted menu over the telephone.
For correct operation these Alarm Panels must be used in conjunction with the specified
transformer/battery combination and appropriate peripheral sensors and signalling devices.
2. Before Operating Your Alarm System
Read the entire manual carefully and keep it in an accessible place.
Note that your security system should be installed and serviced by a qualified security
professional who should instruct you regarding the level of protection provided and the operation
of the system.
Should you have any questions regarding the operation of the system, contact your security
company representative.
Note that your system should be tested on a regular basis. Before testing the system please
notify your security company of your intention to do so.
NEVER disconnect the mains power as the back-up battery will eventually discharge thereby
causing the control panel to shutdown.
Note that a security system cannot prevent emergencies. It is only intended to alert you and (if
applicable) your central station, of an emergency situation.
Note that smoke and heat detectors may not detect all fire situations.
