D-303983 PowerMaxComplete Installer's Guide 45
This method will work provided that you programmed the [
]
button for PGM control (see Par. 4.4.17), and that you
programmed the PGM output to be controlled by keyfob
transmitters (see par. 4.8).
E11. Perimeter Zones
Perimeter zones rely on detectors designed to protect
doors, windows and walls. An immediate alarm is initiated
when such a zone is violated by opening the door/window
or by trying to break the wall.
E12. Perimeter Follower Zones
A non-entry/exit zone, typically a perimeter zone located
on an entry/exit path that is treated as an entry/exit zone
during an entry/exit time.
E13. Temperature Zone
A temperature zone uses a wireless temperature detector
to detect both indoor and outdoor temperatures and is
permanently active. The detector monitors room
temperature using an internal sensor. For outdoor or
refrigerator installations, a waterproof temperature probe
(optional) is used. There are a total of four fixed
temperature points and the user can enable one or more
temperature point.
Upon detection of change in temperature a digital
message is transmitted and the event is reported.
E14. 24-Hour Zones
24 hour zones are mainly used for PANIC buttons, perimeter
detectors and anti-tamper protection. They therefore trigger an
alarm in both armed and disarmed states.
24 Hour Zone - Silent. - Upon detection, this zone
initiates a silent alarm, meaning that the sirens do not
function. Instead the PowerMaxComplete dials telephone
numbers and reports the event to central stations and/or
to private telephones, as programmed.
24 Hour Zone - Audible. - Upon detection, this zone
initiates a siren alarm. The PowerMaxComplete also
dials telephone numbers and reports the event to central
stations and/or to private telephones, as programmed.
E15. Guard Zones
A Guard-box is a metal safe (usually) containing the
physical keys needed to enter the building. Following an
alarm, the safe becomes available to a trusted Guard who
can open the Guard-box, obtain the keys and enter the
secured premises. The Guard zone functions like a 24-
hour audible zone, except that following a short time period
after an alarm, the alarm is disabled (to allow access to the
safe by a Guard).
Note: Opening or closing the Guard-box causes the
PowerMaxComplete to send notification to the monitoring
station.
E16. Outdoor Zones
An Outdoor Zone is used mainly for outdoor areas where
an activated alarm does not indicate intrusion into the
house. When the detector that is assigned to the Outdoor
Zone detects a disturbance, it triggers an alarm and
reports it to private phones, but does not report the alarm
to the Central Station.
Note: Outdoor / Monitored zones are not part of the
confirmed alarm sequence on UK panels.
Note: If a Tower-20 MCW is installed and the Masking Event
Reported as Tamper option is enabled (DIP switch 4 = ON),
the PowerMaxComplete identifies the masking event as a
tamper in all instances.
APPENDIX F. PowerMaxComplete Compatible Devices
F1. PowerMaxComplete Compatible
Detectors
Each detector compatible with the PowerMaxComplete
system is packed with its own installation instructions.
Read them carefully and install as indicated.
A. PIR Motion Detectors
The wireless passive infrared (PIR) motion detectors used
in the system are of the PowerCode type. The
PowerMaxComplete is capable of “learning” each detector’s
identification code and linking it to a specific zone (see par.
4.3 in this Guide). Some units are shown below:
Note: K-940 MCW, Discovery K9-80/MCW and NEXT
®
K9-85 MCW are pet immune units.
In addition to its unique 24-bit identification code, each
detector transmits a message, containing status
information:
The detector is in alarm (or not).
The detector is being tampered with (or not).
The battery voltage is low (or normal).
“This is a supervisory message”.
If any of these detectors detects motion, it sends out a
message to the alarm control panel. If the system is in the
armed state, an alarm will be triggered.
