MESSAGE TO THE INSTALLER

The PowerMax Pro control panel is supplied with 2 instruction manuals: Installer Guide (this manual - for your exclusive use) Users Guide (for your use during installation only - Must be handed over to the master user after testing the system). Appendices A.1 and A.2 will help you prepare an installation plan. Please take time to fill out the forms - your job will become much easier and confusion will be prevented. Filling out the forms will also help you create a list of detectors and transmitters that must be obtained for the particular application. Compatible detectors and transmitters are listed and described briefly in Appendix E. Remember - it is advisable to power up the control panel temporarily after unpacking and program it on the work bench, in accordance with the installation plan. The programming flow charts in the programming section show all options available for each parameter. Factory defaults are marked with a dark box to their right, and other options (that can be selected instead) are marked by clear boxes. This method allows you to put a checkmark in the appropriate clear box whenever you deviate from the factory defaults. Most of the programming section paragraph numbers correlate with the programming menu numbers. For example, paragraph 4.4.19 describes the "Jam detect", that exists in menu 4 (define panel), sub-menu 19 (Jam detect). Although setting the correct time and date is one of the user tasks, we recommend that you set the time and date in the course of programming. Access to the User Settings for the installer is possible through item 10 on the installers menu or through the user menu (see Users manual section 7). After programming, proceed to install the system as detailed in the Installation Instructions, from paragraph 3.4 onward.

4.6 GSM Auto Detection

The GSM modem auto detection feature enables automatic enrollment of the GSM modem into the PowerMax Pro control panel memory. GSM modem auto detection is activated in one of two ways: after tamper restore and after reset (power-up or after exiting the installer menu). This causes the PowerMax Pro to automatically scan GSM COM ports for the presence of the GSM modem. In the event that the GSM modem auto detection fails and the modem was previously enrolled in the PowerMax Pro control panel, the message "Cel Rmvd Cnfrm" will be displayed. This message will disappear from the display only after the user. The modem is then considered as not clicks enrolled and no GSM trouble message will be displayed. Note: A message is displayed only when the PowerMax Pro alarm system is disarmed. In the event that the PowerLink modem auto detection fails and the modem was previously enrolled in the PowerMax Pro control panel, the message "BBA Remvd Cnfrm" will be displayed. This message will disappear from the display only. The modem is then after the user clicks considered as not enrolled and no PowerLink trouble message will be displayed. Note: A message is displayed only when the PowerMax Pro alarm system is disarmed.

4.15 ENABLING/DISABLING PARTITIONS
This mode allows you to enable/disable the partitioning feature (optional). Partitioning allows you to divide the
system into a maximum of four independently controllable areas. A different user code is assigned to each partition in order to limit or control access to each area. A partition can also be armed or disarmed regardless
of the status of the other partitions within the system.
When the partition feature is disabled, zones, user codes and features will operate the same as in a regular PowerMax Pro unit. When partition is enabled, menu displays are changed to incorporate the partition feature.

4.16 WALK-TEST
This mode (see Figure 4.1a) provides you with the means to conduct a periodic test, via the walk-test menu, at least once a week and after an alarm event.

5. TESTING PROCEDURES

Note: The system is intended to be checked by a qualified technician at least every 3 years.

5.1 Preparations

Make sure all windows and doors are closed and all zones are secured (undisturbed). If the partition (in a PowerMax Pro Partition system) is enabled the control panel displays the current status of the selected partition. For example, if the current partition is 3, the display should read:
Press the keyfob units DISARM ( ) key. The ARM indicator should extinguish, the announcement Disarm, ready to arm" should be heard and the display should revert to:

P3 RDY

Note: "P3" refers to PowerMax Pro with Partitioning (enabled). If the display is "N.RDY" / NOT READY, query the control panel by pressing the button repeatedly. The source(s) of the problem(s) will be displayed and read aloud. Take the necessary measures to eliminate the problem(s) before testing the system (see next paragraph).
Note: "P3" refers to PowerMax Pro with Partitioning (enabled). Test the AUX button in each keyfob in accordance with the information noted in Table A.2, Appendix A. Verify that the AUX button performs its duty as programmed. If the AUX ( ) button is defined as STATUS, system status should be displayed and announced upon pressing the button. If the AUX ( ) button is defined as INSTANT at partition 3, press the AWAY button and then the AUX button. The response should be:

ARM PLS

INSTANT EXIT NOW

5.2 Diagnostic Test

To verify proper function of all detectors in the system, a comprehensive diagnostic test is required. To perform this test, refer to Figure 4.10.

(alternating)

5.3 Keyfob Transmitter Test
Initiate transmission from each transmitter enrolled as a keyfob unit (according to the list in Table A2, Appendix A). Use each transmitter to arm the control panel AWAY and immediately disarm it. Upon pressing the keyfob units AWAY key, the ARM indicator should light. For example, If the current partition is 3, the display should respond as follows:
Note: "P3" refers to PowerMax Pro with Partitioning (enabled). and the exit delay beeps will start. Press the DISARM ( ) key immediately to disarm. If the AUX ( ) button is programmed as PGM / X-10 and permitted to activate one or several X-10 units, pressing ( ) should activate the appliance controlled by the chosen X-10 unit(s). If the AUX ( ) button is programmed as PGM / X-10 and permitted to activate the PGM output, pressing ( ) should activate the device wired to the PGM output.
5.4 Appliance ON/OFF Test

ARMING PLS

AWAY NOW
Note: "P3" refers to PowerMax Pro with Partitioning (enabled). The exit delay beeps will begin.
The X-10 unit assignment information that you noted in Appendix B of this manual is very useful for this test. Go over the table in Appendix B column by column. If, for instance, the BY ARM AWAY column has Xs marked in the rows pertaining to units 1, 5 and 15 - then arm AWAY the system and verify that the appliances controlled by these units are actually activated upon arming.
Continue in the same manner in the following columns, always creating the state or event that will activate the relevant units. Verify that all appliances are activated as programmed. IMPORTANT! Before testing BY TIMER and BY ZONE, make sure that these forms of control are permitted - click repeatedly and verify that the display shows:
5.5 Emergency Transmitter Test
Initiate transmission from each transmitter enrolled to an emergency zone (according to the list in Table A3, Appendix A). For example, upon pressing the transmit button of an emergency transmitter enrolled to zone 22 at partition 1, the display should read:

P1 Z22 P1 Z22

EMERGENCY

TIMER SENSOR

VIOLATED
A dark box at the extreme right means that these functions are enabled. The easiest way for test timed activation is to select the ninth item in the installers menu (10. USER SETTINGS) and set the system clock a few minutes before the relevant start time. Do not forget to return the clock to the correct time after completion of this test.
Note: "P1" refers to PowerMax Pro with Partitioning (enabled). It is advisable to let the central station know that you are conducting this test, or just disconnect the telephone line from the PowerMax Pro during the test, to prevent false alarms.

6. MAINTENANCE

6.1 Dismounting the Control Panel
A. Release the 2 screws that fasten the front unit to the back unit (see Figure 3.1k). B. Remove the 3 screws that fasten the back unit to the mounting surface (see Figure 3.1a) and remove the control panel.

6.3 Fuse

6.2 Replacing the Backup Battery
Replacement and first-time insertion of battery pack is similar (see Figure 3.1h). Insert a fresh battery pack, and then tighten the battery compartment lid; the TROUBLE indicator should extinguish. However, the MEMORY message will now blink in the display (caused by the tamper alarm you triggered when opening the battery compartment lid). Clear it by arming the system and immediately disarming.
The PowerMax Pro has two internal fuses that have automatic reset. Therefore, there is no need to replace fuses. When over current condition occurs, the fuse cuts off the circuit current. Upon fault current being removed for several seconds, the fuse is automatically reset and allows current flow through the circuit again.
6.4 Replacing/Relocating Detectors
Whenever maintenance work involves replacement or relocation of detectors, always perform a full diagnostic test according to par. 4.10. Remember! A "poor" signal is not acceptable, as stated at the end of the test procedure.

7. READING THE EVENT LOG

Up to 100 events can be stored in the event log. You can access this log and review the events, one by one. The log uses the first in, first out (FIFO) principle. If the event log fills up completely (100 events), the oldest event is deleted upon registration of each new event. The date and time of occurrence are memorized for each event. When reading the event log, events are shown in chronological order - from the newest to the oldest. Access to the event log is provided by clicking the asterisk key and not through the installers menu. Reading and erasing process of the event log is shown in the next drawing. Note: Up to 250 events can be stored in the event log via the Upload / Download software application.

APPENDIX D. Programmable Zone Types

D1. Delay Zones

A delay zone triggers the entry delay set by you in the course of programming the system. Warning beeps will sound throughout these delays, unless you choose to mute them. Exit Delay - The exit delay begins once the user arms the system. It allows him to leave via interior zones and a doorway before arming actually takes effect. When the exit delay starts, the buzzer beeps slowly and maintains a slow beeping rate until the last 10 seconds, during which it beeps rapidly. Entry Delay - The entry delay begins once the user enters the protected area via a specific doorway (his entry is sensed by a delay zone detector). To avoid an alarm, he must reach the keypad via follower zones and disarm the system before the delay expires. When the entry delay starts, the buzzer beeps slowly until the last 10 seconds, during which it beeps rapidly. The PowerMax Pro has two types of delay zones, for which different delay times may be set. In distress situations, they can press the button on their transmitter, causing the PowerMax Pro to send an emergency call to the central monitoring station or to private telephones designated by the installer.

APPENDIX E. PowerMax Pro Compatible Devices

E1 Compatible Detectors

Each detector compatible with the PowerMax Pro 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 PowerMax Pro is capable of learning each detectors identification code and linking it to a specific zone (see par. 4.3 in this Guide). Some units are shown below:
DISCOVERY NEXT MCPIR-3000 K9-80/MCW or K-940 MCW K9-85 MCW 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. Wireless PowerCode Infrared Detector CLIP MCW. A curtain-pattern PIR detector for indoor use and designed for easy installation. An advanced motion analysis method allows the CLIP MCW to distinguish between the true motion of the human body and any other disturbances that cause false alarms. After detection, the detector disarms itself to save battery CLIP MCW power. It rearms (reverts to the ready state) if there is no subsequent detection throughout the following 2-minute period. Dual technology anti-masking NEXT PLUS Detectors. The NEXT PIR is a microprocessor-controlled PIR detector, designed for easy installation, free of vertical adjustment. It features a cylindrical lens with uniform detection sensitivity of up to a distance of 15 meters (49 ft) from the detector. Wireless PowerCode PIR Detector TOWER 40. A microprocessor-controlled wireless digital PIR detector, designed for easy installation, free of vertical adjustment. It features parabolic and cylindrical mirrors with uniform detection sensitivity throughout its operating range, up to 18 meters (59 ft), with creep zone protection. An advanced True Motion Recognition algorithm (patented) allows the TOWER 40 to distinguish between the true motion of an intruder and any other disturbances which may cause false alarms.
E. Wireless PowerCode Gas Detector MCT-441. A natural gas detector designed to send an alarm when Methane gas is detected. The detector can be used in a house, apartment, caravan, mobile home or yacht. The detector can send the following messages to the alarm control panel: Gas alarm, gas sensor failure, AC power failure and low battery voltage. F. Indoor Wireless CO Gas Detector MCT-442. The carbon monoxide (CO) detector is designed to monitor the CO gas level in residential dwellings and give early warning before potentially dangerous levels exist. The CO alarm is transmitted to the alarm control panel and presented on its display. G. Glass Break Detector MCT-501 An acoustic detector equipped with a PowerCode-type transmitter. Since it restores automatically after detection, this unit does not send a restoral message to the control panel. H. Wireless PowerCode Flood Detector MCT-550. The flood detector is used to detect the presence of water based fluids at any desired location. Upon flood detection, a digital message is transmitted, composed of the detectors PowerCode ID followed by various status and other messages. Alarm and other data are thus forwarded to the alarm control panel. I. Wireless temperature detector MCT-560. Fully supervised wireless PowerCode temperature detector. Can be enrolled to monitor change in temperature. The detector alerts the control panel upon detecting critical indoor or outdoor temperatures. The detector generates an alarm message when its sensor detects that the temperature has reached a certain temperature point. A restore message is generated when it crosses back the threshold temperature point.

Useful Hints For PowerMax Pro Users
Stopping an alarm: When the alarm sounds press the DISARM ( ) button on your key-ring transmitter or press on the keypad and then enter your access code (by default). Stopping trouble beeps: When trouble occurs in the system, the TROUBLE indicator on the front panel will light, and a sequence of 3 beeps will sound once per minute. If you do not wish to eliminate the trouble immediately and the beeps are bothersome, press the DISARM ( ) button on your key-ring transmitter, or press on the keypad and then enter your access code (by default). This will silence the buzzer for 4 hours, after which the trouble beeps will resume sounding. Be advised, however, that in any case the trouble beeps are silenced during night hours. Perimeter and interior zones versus 24-hour zones: Most of the protection sensors in your system are linked to perimeter and interior zones. These zones trigger alarms while the system is in the armed state and do not trigger alarms while the system is in the disarmed state. Other sensors are linked to 24hour zones which trigger alarms irrespective of arming/disarming. Arming while perimeter zones are not secured (doors and/or windows are open): Your display will read NOT READY if a protected door or window is open. You can find out which zone button. You is not ready by clicking the can eliminate the problem by closing the door/window or by performing "Forced arming" (zone deactivation) if this option was enabled by the system installer. In case you intentionally choose to bypass a zone, leave the door or window open and arm the system (a voice message will announce that "Forced Arming is under way). Bypassed zones will not be protected during one arming period. Gaining access to 24-hour zones: If you wish to access a sensor defined as a 24-hour zone without causing an alarm: - the display will read: Click NORMAL MODE / WALK TEST. Click again - the display will read: USER SETTINGS.
Click - the display will read: ENTER CODE ___. Key your secret 4-digit <User Code> - the buzzer will play the happy Tune (- - - ). You have 4 minutes during which the 24-hour sensor can be opened and accessed. When the 4 minutes are up, the system will automatically revert to the normal mode. Canceling accidental alarms: Upon alarm, the internal sounder is activated first for a limited period of time (set by the installer). Then the external siren starts and the event is reported to the central monitoring station. If you accidentally cause an alarm, you may simply disarm the system before the external siren starts - the alarm will not be reported. If you cause an alarm accidentally and the external siren has already started - you can still disarm the system within a time limit set by the installer (1 to 15 minutes, as desired). If you manage to disarm on time, a CANCEL ALARM message will be automatically sent to the central monitoring station. Failing to exit before the exit delay expires: If you exit the protected site after the exit delay expires (the exit delay beeps stop), the system will interpret this as if you just entered. The entry delay countdown will begin and the entry delay beeps will sound. To prevent an alarm, you must disarm the system before the entry delay expires. Unauthorized entry took place while you were away: If you hear alarm sirens when you are about to re-enter the premises, and lights which should be off are on - an intruder may still be inside or another event may have occurred. Do not confront the intruder - remain outside and call the emergency services.

Note regarding the Mute Speaker button The Mute Speaker button is active only if the "Set Voice Option" function is enabled ("enable prompts" see user setting flow-chart, fig. 8). other holders of keyfob transmitters will have no problem, because you can disarm the system before entering by pressing the DISARM ( ) button on your transmitter before entry. C. Getting status information: Upon pressing the aux button on your transmitter, the control panel announces the system status over the loudspeaker. In partition mode, the control panel announces the status of the partition to which the keyfob is enrolled. D. Skip exit delay: Pressing the AUX button will immediately cause the system to arm instant. Disarming by a keyfob whose battery voltage is low (if enabled by the installer) If you try to disarm the system with a keyfob whose battery voltage is low, a protest beep will be heard for 15 seconds. During this period you should press again the disarm button of the keyfob or control panel (for the control panel, user code is required) to disarm the system. If you perform this action during the 15 seconds period, the Low Bat acknowledge message will be stored in the event log. If the disarm button is not pressed again during the 15 seconds period, perform either of the following actions when you want to rearm the system: A. Press AWAY twice to arm the system, otherwise the system will not be armed and an acknowledgement (from the user that he knows about the Low Bat) will not be stored in the event log. B. Press AWAY and then press disarm button, to acknowledge, otherwise the acknowledgement will not be stored in the event log.
Multi-Function Transmitter
Your system responds to signals sent by a 4-button (MCT- 234) or a 6-button two-way (MCT- 237) keyfob transmitter, or by a two-way wireless keypad (MKP-150/151) - see figure 4. Both wireless keyfob transmitters are used to control the alarm system or a single predefined partition (*). The two-way wireless keypad is used to control the entire alarm system but is not used when partition is enabled. * In PowerMax Pro with PARTITION feature. MCT-234

Pressing AWAY twice within 2 seconds initiates Latchkey arming, if enabled by the installer. The devices can be used for: A. Controlling a gate or another electrical device: Pressing the AUX button opens/closes an electrically-controlled gate, or controls a chosen electrical d. Your system responds to valid proximity tags enrolled to the system. The proximity tag enables you to perform a variety of functions without entering user code, for example, arming, disarming, reading the event log, etc. Whenever the user code is required, you can simply present a valid proximity tag and perform the desired operation without the need to key-in your user code.

Voice Announcements

The pre-recorded voice announcements respond to your commands by announcing what the system is doing and by prompting you to perform certain actions. They also announce alarms, troubles and identify the source of each event.
B. Arming the system in the INSTANT mode: Pressing the AUX button immediately after arming, during exit delay, causes the system to be armed without an entry delay. This means that entering the protected premises via any zone will trigger an immediate alarm. You and DE5468U
The sounds you will hear while using the control panel are: Single beep, heard whenever a key is pressed Double beep, indicates automatic return to the normal operating mode (by timeout). Three beeps, indicates a trouble event

Screen Saver Option

The purpose of the Screen Saver option (if enabled by the installer) is that when no key is pressed during more than 30 seconds, the display reads PowerMax and the LEDs do not light (to prevent an intruder to know the system status). The normal display returns after pressing the button followed by entering user code (Refresh by Code) or after pressing any key (Refresh by Key), as selected by the installer. If Refresh by Key was selected, the first pressing of any key (except Fire and Emergency) causes normal display return and the second press performs the key function. Regarding the Fire and Emergency keys, the first key press causes normal display return and also performs the Fire/Emergency function.

ELECTRICAL APPLIANCE CONTROL
4. Electrical Appliance Control
Control Options and Pushbuttons
The system allows manual or automatic remote control of up to 15 electrical devices (lights, radio/TV, tape recorders, fans etc.). This requires an optional X-10 controller and up to 15 remote X-10 units (see Fig. 2). ON / OFF control codes are communicated via the regular household electrical wiring. Besides the X-10 units (numbered 1 to 15), it is possible to control a device connected to the PGM output (unit # 00). The user defines the ON and OFF times via the Scheduler (see Chapter 7 - Scheduler Function). The installer determines which zone sensors will switch the remote controlled appliances on and off. However, the decision whether the remote controlled appliances will respond as programmed is up to you (see next table). Note: The X-10 output operates on the entire alarm system and not per partition. Key Function Manual activation of lights or other household electrical appliances. Manual deactivation of lighting or other household electrical appliances. Selecting the active automatic control method: Sensors: Appliances are controlled by sensors (assigned by the installer for this). Timer: Appliances are controlled by timer (ON and OFF times are defined by the installer). Both: Appliances are controlled by sensors as well as by a timer. Examples of benefits gained by automatic remote control: Timer Control. When you are away, the timed activation / de-activation of lights, radio and TV simulates the presence of people at home, to deter potential burglars. Zone Control. Upon disturbance of a perimeter zone, lights are switched on and a tape recorder starts running, playing back a series of dog barks. Note: Automatic activation and deactivation of electrical appliances depend also on the Scheduler setup (see Chapter 7 - Scheduler Function).

A. Establishing Telephone Communication You can access the PowerMax Pro system from a remote telephone and perform arming and disarming, activation and deactivation of electrical devices and the auxiliary output (PGM), record, playback and erase a voice message, and investigate the system status.

* The 2-way communication can be terminated by anyone close to the PowerMax Pro, by disarming the system. Remark Regarding Listen-in & Speak-out modes Listen-in & Speak-out modes allow one way speech at a time. Back and forth exchange of uninterrupted speech between two parties is a method normally used in military, commercial and amateur radio communication. Once you finish talking you should say Go Ahead or Over and then switch from speakout to listen in. When the person at home finishes talking he should also say Over, as a cue to you to switch back from Listen-in to speak out. EXAMPLE: [1], Hey, George, You (at remote telephone): can you hear me? Are you in any trouble? Over. [3] Person at home: Yes, I am. I had a dizzy spell while trying to get out of bed and fell on the floor. I am unable to get up and my thigh hurts. Can you help me? Over.

[1], All right, over You (at remote telephone): [ ] 9] [9] (END OF SESSION) and out.. IMPORTANT! If you wish to exit the two-way communication mode and execute another command, just press [ ] and then key your user code followed by the command (see keying sequences in Executable Commands table above). If a person under surveillance in the Watkins residence has been inactive, the message will be: [The Watkins Residence - No Activity].

MAINTENANCE

9. Maintenance

Replacing the Backup Battery
The PowerMax Pro uses regular electrical supply, but incorporates backup 9.6V battery pack (see sticker on battery cover). Upon receiving the following trouble message when reviewing system troubles (see Chapter 5 - Reviewing Trouble Information), contact your installer for instructions on how to proceed: CPU LOW BATTERY

Front unit

Figure 10. Battery Replacement Open battery compartment cover. Insert one 8battery pack and connect its connector to the PowerMax Pro receptacle. For optional two 8-Battery packs: Insert both battery packs and connect one battery pack connector to either receptacle and the second battery pack connector to the other receptacle. Note: Dispose of used backup batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions. Note: Removing the cover starts a Tamper alarm. The trouble indicator will light and both Memory and Trouble will flash in the display window. If you view the display at this stage by clicking the key, the "CPU TAMPER ALARM" and "CPU TAMPER OPEN" messages are displayed in addition to the "CPU LOW BATTERY" message. When you correctly insert fresh batteries and close the lid tightly, the TROUBLE indicator shuts off. The MEMORY message continues blinking in the display (because of the Tamper alarm you triggered). Clear it by arming the system and disarming it as soon as the exit delay starts.
