2. CHOOSING THE INSTALLATION LOCATION
To ensure the best possible mounting location of the PowerMaster control panel, the following points should be
observed:
The selected location should be approximately in the center of the installation site between all the transmitters,
preferably in a hidden location.
In close proximity to an AC source
In close proximity to a telephone line connection (if PSTN is used)
Where there is good cellular coverage, if GSM-350 PG2 is used
Far from sources of wireless interference, such as:
o Computers or other electronic devices, power conductors, cordless phones, light dimmers, etc.
o Large metal objects (such as metal doors or refrigerators)
Note: A distance of at least 1 meter (3 ft) is recommended.
When mounting wireless devices:
Make sure that the signal reception level for each device is either "Strong" or "Good", but not "Poor".
Wireless magnetic contacts should be installed in a vertical position and as high up the door or window as possible.
Wireless PIR detectors should be installed upright at the height specified in their Installation Instructions
Repeaters should be located high on the wall in mid-distance between the transmitters and the control panel.
WARNING! To comply with FCC and IC RF exposure compliance requirements, the control panel should be located at
a distance of at least 20 cm from all persons during normal operation. The antennas used for this product must not be
co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

4.2 Enrollment of the First KP-250 PG2 Keypad
The PowerMaster-33 G2 is designed to operate wirelessly with the KP-250 PG2 keypad display device installed
anywhere within the protected premises.
The first keypad must always beis always enrolled as Keypad no. 1. If a keypad is already enrolled at Keypad no.1, the
keypad will be deleted and the LED will light to indicate this.
Step Action
1 Press the "Enroll 1st Keypad" button (located on the front unit of the PowerMaster-33 G2 control panel –
see Figure 3.1) on the PowerMaster-33 G2 control panel for 2 seconds. If no keypad exists in the first
location, the "Enroll 1st Keypad" LED on the PowerMaster-33 G2 blinks slowly for one 1 minute (go to step
3).
If a keypad already exists in the first location, the "Enroll 1st Keypad" LED on the PowerMaster-33 G2
control panel lights steady for 10 seconds (go to step 2).
Note: Pressing the "Enroll 1st Keypad" button takes the system out of any of the system modes,
programming modes, etc., and disarms the system menu mode (Installer Mode, User Settings and Periodic
Test).
2 If you still want to proceed (any keypad that was enrolled in keypad no. 01 is deleted from the system),
press the "Enroll 1st Keypad" button again within the timeout period (10 seconds). Any keypad that was
enrolled in keypad no. 01 is deleted from the system.
The "Enroll 1st Keypad" LED on the PowerMaster-33 G2 blinks slowly for 1 minute.
3 During this 1 minute period, hold the button on the KP-250 PG2 keypad for 2-55-7 seconds, until the
LED on the keypad lights bluered, and release*. The enrollment "Enroll 1st Keypad" LED on the
PowerMaster-33 G2 will indicate the result of the enrollment procedure.

Lights steadily for 5 sec. Wrong device type
4 Upon completion of the enrolling procedure, the keypad is ready for immediate use even if the system is
currently in the Armed state.
Note: If the keypad was previously enrolled at a different keypad no., it will be automatically relocated
automatically to Keypad no. 1. However, all of the configured parameters will be lost and the keypad will
revert to the default parameters.
4.3 Using the Prox Tag
Proximity tags enable authorized people to enter
restricted areas. Presenting a valid proximity tag to the
tag reader (as shown in the drawing) while the system is
armed causes the system to disarm. Presenting a valid
proximity tag to the tag reader while the system is
disarmed causes the system to be armed in AWAY
(optional HOME) mode. To enroll / delete proximity tags,
refer to the KP-250 PG2 User’s Guide.
Notes:
1. Use of the Proximity tags is optional.
2. Proximity tags are not compatible for use when partition
is enabled.
5. MAINTENANCE
5.1 Dismounting the Control Panel
A. Remove the screw that fastens the front unit to the back unit, see Figure 3.2.
B. Remove the 4 screws that fasten the back unit to the mounting surface - Figure 3.2 - and remove the control panel.
5.2 Replacing the Backup Battery
Replacement and first-time insertion of battery pack is similar, see Figure 3.9c.
With a fresh battery pack, correct insertion and tightened battery compartment lid, the TROUBLE indicator on the kp-
250 PG2 keypad 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.
5.3 Fuse Replacement
The PowerMaster-33 G2 has two internal fuses that has automatic reset. Therefore, there is no need to replace the
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.
5.4 Replacing/Relocating Detectors
Whenever maintenance work involves replacement or re-location of detectors, always perform a full diagnostic test
according to the KP-250 PG2 User’s Guide, section 12.9.
Remember! A "poor" signal is not acceptable.
5.5 Annual System Check
Note: The PowerMaster system must be checked by a qualified technician at least once every three (3) years
(preferably every year).
The annual system check is designed to ensure proper operation of the alarm system by performing the following checks:
Periodic test
Arm/disarm function
No trouble messages are displayed on control panel
The clock displays the correct time
Reporting: generating an event to be transmitted to the Monitoring Station and to the user.

Panic alarm
( 2 sec.)
Preparing to Arm
Before arming, make sure that READY is displayed.
HH:MM READY
This indicates that all zones are secured and you may arm the system as desired.
If at least one zone is open (disturbed) the display will read:
HH:MM NOT READY
This indicates that the system is not ready for arming and in most cases that one or more
zones are not secured. However, it can also mean that an unresolved condition exists
such as certain trouble conditions, jamming etc., depending on system configuration.
To review the open zones click . The details and location of the first open zone detector (usually an open
door or window sensor) will be displayed. To fix the open zone, locate the sensor and secure it (close the door
or window) – see "device locator" below. Each click of will display another open zone or trouble indication.
It is highly recommended to fix the open zone(s), thus restoring the system to the state of “ready to arm”. If you
do not know how to do this, consult your installer.
Note: To quit at any stage and to revert to the "READY" display, click .
Device Locator: The PowerMaster system has a powerful device locator that helps you to identify open or
troubled devices indicated on the LCD display. While the LCD displays an open or faulty device, the LED on the
respective deice flashes indicating "it's me". The "it's me" indication will appear on the device within max. 16
seconds and will last for as long as the LCD displays the device.
Zone Bypass Scheme
Bypassing permits arming only part of the system and at the same time allowing free movement of people within
certain zones when the system is armed. It is also used to temporarily remove from service faulty zones that
require repair work or to deactivate a sensor if, for example, you are decorating a room.
You can set the Zone Bypass Scheme i.e. to scroll through the list of registered (enrolled) sensors to your
PowerMaster system and to Bypass (deactivate) faulty or disturbed sensors (either READY or NOT-READY) or
to Clear (reactivate) BYPASSED zones (sensors).
Once you have set a Bypass Scheme you can use the following 3 options:
To quickly review the bypassed zones – refer to Chapter 6, section A.2 of the KP-250 PG2 User’s Guide.
To quickly clear a bypassed zone i.e. to reactivate the bypassed zone – refer to Chapter 6, section A.1 of
the KP-250 PG2 User’s Guide.
To repeat (recall) the last used zone bypassing scheme – refer to Chapter 6, section A.3 of the KP-250 PG2
User’s Guide.
Notes:
1. Zones will be bypassed throughout one disarm-arm period only. Disarming the system after arming will
suspend the entire bypassing scheme but you can recall and reuse it as described in Chapter 6, section A.3
of the KP-250 PG2 User’s Guide.
2. Fire zones cannot be bypassed.
