Testing & Mounting 5.1 Test the Reception of Wireless Devices It is very important to test the proposed placement of each wireless device before it is mounted. Following these steps will test the signal strength between the PC5132433 and the wireless devices. You can test all of the devices together (global placement testing) or test each device individually. To test all the devices together, see Testing All Wireless Devices Together. To test wireless devices individually, see Testing Individual Devices. NOTE: After you have enrolled the wireless devices, you must exit and then reenter installer’s mode at least once before you can perform a placement test. Testing All Wireless Devices Together: 1. Temporarily put the wireless devices in the places you want to mount them. 2. At a system keypad, enter [✱][8][Installer’s Code]. 3. Enable the Global Module Placement test by entering section [804]. Then enter sub-section [90] and turn on option [8]. 4. Press [#] twice. 5. Enter programming section [904], then enter [01]. 6. Activate one of the devices being tested until a result is displayed on the keypad or sounded by the keypad or bell: WLS904-433/WLS904P: To perform a Placement Test on the WLS904-433, remove the detector from the back plate and then replace it. Once the detector is replaced on the backplate the LED on the detector will flash rapidly 5 times to indicate that it has sent a transmission. The panel will show and/or sound the result of the placement test on the keypad. To perform a 2nd and 3rd test, repeat this procedure. Carefully replace the backplate onto the detector, ensuring that “TOP” is facing upward, or you may damage the tamper switch. NOTE: When you remove the detector from the backplate (tamper the unit), the detector will also be put into “Detector Walk Test” mode. While in Walk Test Mode the detector will activate the LED when motion is detected. The detector will also send a signal to the receiver 5 seconds after motion is detected, indicated by 5 rapid flashes by the LED. The LED will only work in this fashion for 10 motion detections after a tamper/restore. Note, that the panel will ignore these transmission signals with respect to a placement test. The only way in which the panel will acknowledge a placement test, is if the backplate has, each time, been removed and restored. WLS906-433: Remove the detector from its backplate, wait 5 seconds and reattach it, or hold a magnet near the raised line on the outer rim, then remove it. WLS907-433/WLS925L-433: Open the contact by moving the magnet away from the unit. The keypad will show/sound the test result. After the first test result has been generated (about 10 seconds) close the contact to generate another test result. If the unit is attached to a door or a window, open and close the door or window to activate the device. WLS909-433/WLS919-433: Press any function key at several different locations.

To exit the placement test and installer programming, press [#] twice. Testing Individual Wireless Keys: You cannot use the individual device test described above to test WLS909-433/ WLS919-433 wireless keys. To ensure that the PC5132 receiver is receiving transmissions from the devices, use the function keys on the Wireless Keys at several different points in the installation. 11 T 5.2 Mount the PC5132 and Wireless Devices When you have tested reception of the PC5132 with all the wireless devices (see section 5.1) and you have a good mounting location, mount the PC5132: 1. Pull the Keybus wires through the hole at the bottom of the cabinet. 2. Mount the cabinet securely to the wall. Mount the Devices If you have conducted the placement test described in section 5.1 and got 3 “Good” results in a row for each device, you can mount the wireless devices. See the Installation Sheet for each device for mounting instructions. Now that your PC5132 and wireless devices are mounted and working properly, read section 6 for information on potential wireless trouble conditions, RF jamming signals, and battery replacement. 12 Additional Notes 6.1 Trouble Conditions The control panel always watches for possible trouble conditions. If a trouble condition occurs, the keypad “Trouble” light will turn on and the keypad will beep. Press [✱][2] to display the trouble conditions. The following trouble conditions apply to the PC5132 and/or any enrolled devices. General System Tamper - This trouble is generated when the PC5132 plastic cover is removed and/or if there is a jamming condition present. General System Supervisory - This trouble will be indicated if the panel loses communication with any module connected to the Keybus. The event buffer will log a detailed description of the event. Device Low Battery - This trouble is generated when a wireless device exhibits a low battery condition. Press [7] one, two, or three times to view which devices are experiencing battery failure. An LED keypad will indicate battery failure using zone lights 1 to 8. Zone Tamper - This trouble is generated when an enrolled wireless device is removed from its mounting location. Zone Fault - Each wireless zone will send a supervisory signal every 64 minutes. If the receiver does not receive a signal within the time programmed for the Wireless Supervisory Window, it will generate a zone fault. Tamper Switches There are two tamper switches on the PC5132 board. Removing both the plastic cover and/or the PC5132 from its mounting location will cause a general system tamper. 6.2 Jamming Signal Detection The PC5132 receiver detects jamming signals that can prevent the receiver from properly receiving transmissions from enrolled devices. See section 4.4 “Jamming Signal Detection” for information on jamming signal detection programming. 6.3 Wireless Zone Low Battery Transmission Within any transmission, the device will indicate the status of the battery. If a battery is low, the system will indicate a Device Low Battery trouble. The system will delay reporting the event to the central station for the number of days programmed for Zone Low Battery Transmission Delay in section [370]. This will prevent unnecessary reporting of the event if the user has been instructed on how to replace batteries. 13 A Replacing Batteries in Wireless Devices 1. Remove the cover of the device from its back plate. This creates a tamper condition on the zone. 2. Refer to the battery installation instructions on the Installation Sheet of each component. Be sure to note the proper orientation of the batteries as you install them. 3. When the fresh batteries are in place, re-attach the cover to the back plate. The tamper is restored and the zone sends a battery trouble restoral signal to the PC5132. The battery trouble is now clear and the device should function normally. NOTE: When batteries in one device need to be replaced, the batteries in all devices may need to be replaced at the same time. 14 Troubleshooting 1. When I enter the 2-digit zone number when adding a wireless device, the keypad gives me a long beep. You cannot enter ESNs unless a PC5132 wireless receiver is connected to the Keybus. See section 2 for instructions on setting up and wiring the PC5132 module. 2. I have entered the ESN for the device but when I violate the device, the zone does not show open on the keypad. Check the following: • Ensure the ESN has been entered correctly • Ensure that the zone is enabled for the partition (if partition programming is used). • Ensure that the wireless zone is not assigned to a zone used by PC5108 modules, an on-board zone, or a keypad zone. • Ensure that the zone is programmed for something other than “Null Operation”, and that the wireless zone attribute is turned on. 3. When I try a module placement test I get no result or “Bad” results. Check the following (see sections 5.1 and 5.2 for more information on testing devices): • Verify that you are testing the correct zone • Verify that the correct ESN was entered when the device was enrolled • Verify that the device is in range of the PC5132. Try testing the device in the same room as the receiver. • Confirm that the PC5132 is properly connected to the Keybus (see section 2 for PC5132 set up and wiring instructions). • Check that you are testing the zone correctly (see sections 5.1 and 5.2 for testing instructions) • Check that the batteries are working and installed correctly. • Look for large metal objects that may be preventing the signal from reaching the PC5132. The device must be located where consistent “Good” results are obtained. If several devices show “Bad” results, move the receiver. See section 2.2 for tips on choosing a mounting location for the PC5132. 4. The LED on the motion detector does not turn on when I walk in front of the unit. The LED is for walk test purposes only. See your WLS904-433/WLS904P-433 Instruction Sheet for walk test instructions. 15 Programming Worksheets [804] 5132--433 Wireless Expansion Programming • 6-digit entry is required.

Experiments using typical fires in family living units indicate that detectable quantities of smoke precede detectable levels of heat in most cases. In existing homes, NFPA Standard 72 requires that a smoke detector be installed outside each sleeping area and on each additional story of the family unit. On smooth ceilings, detectors may be spaced 9.1m (30 feet) apart as a guide. Other spacing may be required depending on ceiling height, air movement, the presence of joists, uninsulated ceilings, etc. Consult National Fire Alarm Code NFPA 72, CAN/ULS-S553-M86 or other appropriate national standards for installation recommendations. Do not locate smoke detectors at the top of peaked or gabled ceilings; the dead air space in these locations may prevent the unit from detecting smoke. Avoid areas with turbulent air flow, such as near doors, fans or windows. Rapid air movement around the detector may prevent smoke from entering the unit. Do not locate detectors in areas of high humidity. Do not locate detectors in areas where the temperature rises above 38oC (100 oF) or falls below 5oC (41oF). Smoke detectors should always be installed in accordance with NFPA 72, the National Fire Alarm Code. Smoke detectors should always be located in accordance with: • Paragraph 2-2.1.1.1 of NFPA 72:“Smoke detectors shall be installed outside of each separate sleeping area in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and on each additional story of the family living unit, including basements and excluding crawl spaces and unfinished attics. In new construction, a smoke detector also shall be installed in each sleeping room.” • Paragraph 2-2.1.1.2 of NFPA 72:“Split level arrangement. Smoke detectors are required where shown. Smoke detectors are optional where a door is not provided between living room and recreation room.” The Smoke Detector is designed to use Eveready Energizer EN91 Alkaline Batteries. Do not use other brands of batteries with the Smoke Detector. Using brands other than the Eveready Energizer will void UL approval, and may affect the system’s operation. 21 Index add device 4 wireless key antenna 3 global placement test 10 removing device 9 module 7 5, 11 batteries replacing 13 buttons programming 5 individual placement test 11 interference 3 jamming signal detection 8, 12 serial number 4 slot number wireless key 5 supervision DEOL 8 device 8 disable 7 module 7 window 8 connect Keybus 3 receiver 3 location choosing 3 low battery devices 12 testing door/window contact 10 global 10 individual 11 motion detector 10, 11 PC5132 10 placement 10 trouble 12 troubleshooting 15 default module 9 panel 9 delete device 9 devices 2 adding 4 removing 9 distance from control panel 1 electronic serial number 4 enroll device 4 PC5132 7 wireless key 4 ESN 4 factory default 9 frequency 1 function keys 5 Keybus mount devices 11 PC5132 11 number electronic, serial partition programming 7 wireless keys 5 placement PC5132 3 test 10 power 3 problems 12 22 wireless key access codes 6 activating outputs 6 arming/disarming 6 enrolling 4 identifying 6 programming 4 zone adding 4 attribute 7 numbers 4 programming 7 wireless 7 FCC COMPLIANCE STATEMENT CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Digital Security Controls Ltd. could void your authority to use this equipment.

Toronto, Canada • www.dsc.com Technical Support 1-800-387-3630 Printed in Canada 29005106 R003 Direct all comments concerning this publication to pubs@dscltd.com WARNING Please Read Carefully Note to Installers This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users of this system. System Failures This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, however, involving fire, burglary, or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Any alarm system of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some but not all of these reasons may be: ■ Inadequate Installation A security system must be installed properly in order to provide adequate protection. Every installation should be evaluated by a security professional to ensure that all access points and areas are covered. Locks and latches on windows and doors must be secure and operate as intended. Windows, doors, walls, ceilings and other building materials must be of sufficient strength and construction to provide the level of protection expected. A reevaluation must be done during and after any construction activity. An evaluation by the fire and/or police department is highly recommended if this service is available. ■ Criminal Knowledge This system contains security features which were known to be effective at the time of manufacture. It is possible for persons with criminal intent to develop techniques which reduce the effectiveness of these features. It is important that a security system be reviewed periodically to ensure that its features remain effective and that it be updated or replaced if it is found that it does not provide the protection expected. ■ Access by Intruders Intruders may enter through an unprotected access point, circumvent a sensing device, evade detection by moving through an area of insufficient coverage, disconnect a warning device, or interfere with or prevent the proper operation of the system. ■ Power Failure Control units, intrusion detectors, smoke detectors and many other security devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If a device operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a security system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the system operates as intended. ■ Failure of Replaceable Batteries This system’s wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several years of battery life under normal conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuations may reduce the expected battery life. While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating condition. ■ Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference. ■ System Users A user may not be able to operate a panic or emergency switch possibly due to permanent or temporary physical disability, inability to reach the device in time, or unfamiliarity with the correct operation. It is important that all system users be trained in the correct operation of the alarm system and that they know how to respond when the system indicates an alarm. ■ Smoke Detectors Smoke detectors that are a part of this system may not properly alert occupants of a fire for a number of reasons, some of which follow. The smoke detectors may have been improperly installed or positioned. Smoke may not be able to reach the smoke detectors, such as when the fire is in a chimney, walls or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors may not detect smoke from fires on another level of the residence or building. Every fire is different in the amount of smoke produced and the rate of burning. Smoke detectors cannot sense all types of fires equally well. Smoke detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by carelessness or safety hazards such as smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson. Even if the smoke detector operates as intended, there may be circumstances when there is insufficient warning to allow all occupants to escape in time to avoid injury or death. ■ Motion Detectors Motion detectors can only detect motion within the designated areas as shown in their respective installation instructions. They cannot discriminate between intruders and intended occupants. Motion detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They have multiple beams of detection and motion can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by these beams. They cannot detect motion which occurs behind walls, ceilings, floor, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors or windows. Any type of tampering whether intentional or unintentional such as masking, painting, or spraying of any material on the lenses, mirrors, windows or any other part of the detection system will impair its proper operation. Passive infrared motion detectors operate by sensing changes in temperature. However their effectiveness can be reduced when the ambient temperature rises near or above body temperature or if there are intentional or unintentional sources of heat in or near the detection area. Some of these heat sources could be heaters, radiators, stoves, barbeques, fireplaces, sunlight, steam vents, lighting and so on. ■ Warning Devices Warning devices such as sirens, bells, horns, or strobes may not warn people or waken someone sleeping if there is an intervening wall or door. If warning devices are located on a different level of the residence or premise, then it is less likely that the occupants will be alerted or awakened. Audible warning devices may be interfered with by other noise sources such as stereos, radios, televisions, air conditioners or other appliances, or passing traffic. Audible warning devices, however loud, may not be heard by a hearing-impaired person. ■ Telephone Lines If telephone lines are used to transmit alarms, they may be out of service or busy for certain periods of time. Also an intruder may cut the telephone line or defeat its operation by more sophisticated means which may be difficult to detect. ■ Insufficient Time There may be circumstances when the system will operate as intended, yet the occupants will not be protected from the emergency due to their inability to respond to the warnings in a timely manner. If the system is monitored, the response may not occur in time to protect the occupants or their belongings. ■ Component Failure Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the failure of a component. ■ Inadequate Testing Most problems that would prevent an alarm system from operating as intended can be found by regular testing and maintenance. The complete system should be tested weekly and immediately after a break-in, an attempted break-in, a fire, a storm, an earthquake, an accident, or any kind of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system. ■ Security and Insurance Regardless of its capabilities, an alarm system is not a substitute for property or life insurance. An alarm system also is not a substitute for property owners, renters, or other occupants to act prudently to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of an emergency situation.
