INSTALLATION 3.1 Unpacking the Equipment Open the cardboard packing box and check whether all items have been included. If you find out that an item is missing, contact your vendor or dealer immediately. 3.2 Supplying Power to the Unit Enrolling the transmitting devices’ ID codes in the Power- Max+ memory will be easier if carried out before actual installation, with all detectors and the control panel on a work bench. It is therefore necessary to power up the PowerMax+ temporarily from the external power trans- former (see figure 3). Alternatively, you may power up from the backup battery, as shown in figure 1. Disregard any “trouble” indications that may appear (due to lack of battery or lack of telephone line connection).   Remove battery area cover(see fig. 4, step 3) andremove battery compartmentcover (1 screw).Connect rechargeablebattery pack (seespecifications) to the batteryconnector. Afterwardsremount battery area andbattery compartment covers.12 Figure 1 - Backup Battery Insertion 3.3 Programming  It pays off to plan ahead - use the tables in appendices A and B at the end of this guide to register the intended location of each detector, the holder and assignment of each transmitter and the control plan for the X-10 units.  Gather up all transmitters and detectors used in the system and mark each one in accordance with your deployment plan. Program the system now as instructed in the PowerMax+ Programming Guide.  3.4 Mounting PowerMax+ mounting process is shown in figure 2. 3.5 Wiring PowerMax+ wiring is shown in figure 3. Extract the screw terminal blocks one by one and make the necessary connections. When done, plug each terminal block onto its PCB mounted pins.  You will need 6-lead RJ-11 cord(s) for telephone line or telephone line and telephone set.

LINE JACK Figure 3 - Wiring Diagram Notes regarding figure 3: *  Zone 29/GND and Zone 30/GND terminals can be connected to a normally closed contact of a detector, switch (for example a Tamper switch of any device), or a pushbutton, via a 2.2 KΩ resistor. Such a resistor is connected at the factory across both Zone 29/GND and Zone 30/GND terminals. The resistors should remain there if the terminals are not used. The V+ terminal can be used to supply 12V (up to 100mA) to a detector (if necessary). **  Both +12V terminals are identical (shorted together). The +12V and "-Hold" terminals can be connected to a siren (for constant DC power supply) and the INT or EXT terminal can be used to trigger such a siren. The INT terminal can be programmed to "internal siren" or "strobe" (see DEFINE OUTPUTS - DEFINE AUX in chap. 6 in the PowerMax+ prog. guide). *** Removable  LINE SET terminals or connector (RJ-11), according to the purchase option. WARNING! When plugging terminals back into place, be sure to align them carefully with the pins on the PCB. Misaligned or reverse insertion of terminals may damage internal PowerMax+ circuits! IMPORTANT! The terminals for internal and external sirens are DC outputs intended for 12V sirens. Connecting a loudspeaker to any of these outputs will cause a short circuit and will damage the unit. Notes for UL installations a. The site INTERNAL SIREN and EXTERNAL SIREN are suitable for burglar alarm application only. They are not suitable for fire alarm signaling.  b.  A device that is connected to PGM terminal should not be programmed to be activated during standby. c.  "V+" and "-HOLD" terminals shall not be used for UL installations. d.  The system shall be installed in accordance with Chapter 2 of the National Fire Alarm Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. e. All wiring should be acceptable for class 1 systems as defined by the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord shall be used. f.  The system shall be installed in accordance with CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1. g.  A minimum spacing of 1/4 inch shall be maintained between the telephone wiring and the low voltage wiring (zones, bell circuit, etc). Do not route the LINE and SET wires in the same wiring channel with other wires.
6  DE5465 3.6 Connecting the AC Transformer CAUTION! Do not plug the transformer into the AC outlet before completing all other wiring. A. U.S.A. only: Remove the center screw from the AC wall outlet. B. Plug the transformer directly in - the Power LED of the control panel should illuminate. C. U.S.A. only: Use the screw removed in Step A above to secure the transformer to the AC outlet. Tighten the screw well. D. The distance of the transformer from the system should not exceed 150 ft using 18 AWG conductors. For UL installations, do not connect to a receptacle controlled by a switch. 3.7 PowerMax+ Compatible Detectors Each detector compatible with the PowerMax+ 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+ is capable of “learning” each detector’s identification code and linking it to a specific zone (see Section 3 in the Programming Guide). Some units are shown below:   Figure 4 NEXT® K9-85 MCW   Figure 5  MCPIR-3000 or K-940 MCW  Figure 6 DISCOVERY K9-80/MCW MCPIR-3000 is not UL-listed! 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. B. Magnetic Contact Transmitter MCT-302 (figure 7) is a PowerCode magnetic-contact transmitter used to detect the opening of a door or a window. The alarm contacts are closed as long as the door or window remains closed.  Figure 7 MCT-302 The unit has an extra alarm input that acts as if it were a separate wireless transmitter. It sends (or does not send) a “restored to normal“ message to the alarm system, depending on the setting of an on-board “DIP” switch. The “restore” message informs you, through the control panel’s display, whether the door or window is open or closed. C. MCT-100 Wireless Adapter for Wired Detectors (not UL-Listed) MCT-100 (fig. 8) is a PowerCode device used mainly as a wireless adapter for 2 regular magnetic switches installed on 2 windows in the same room. It has two inputs, behaving as separate wireless transmitters with different PowerCode IDs. Each input sends (or does not send) a “restored“ message to the alarm system, depending on the setting of an on-board “DIP” switch.   Figure 8 MCT-100 D. Wireless Smoke Detector MCT-430 (UL-listed). A photoelectric smoke detector equipped with a PowerCode-type transmitter. If enrolled to a fire zone, it initiates a fire alarm upon detection of smoke.  Figure 9. MCT-430 E. Glass Break Detector MCT-501 (not UL-Listed). An acoustic detector (fig. 10) equipped with a PowerCode-type transmitter. Since it restores automatically after detection, this unit does not send a restoral message to the control panel.  Figure 10 MCT-501 3.8 PowerMax+ Compatible Transmitters Note: Each transmitter is packed with its own instructions for battery installation and use. Be sure to pass these documents on to the “Master User“ of the alarm system. The PowerMax+ system is compatible with multi-button and single button key-ring and hand-held transmitters that use PowerCode and CodeSecure coding methods.  Multi-button PowerCode transmitters transmit the same code each time the same button is pressed. They can be used for emergency signaling, for activating the PGM output or for controlling appliances via X-10 units. They can not be used for arming / disarming. CodeSecure transmitters are of the rolling code type - they transmit a new code each time the same button is pressed. This provides a higher security level, especially in arming / disarming applications, because the code can not be copied (“grabbed”) by unauthorized people. Following are the basic details of several compatible transmitters. The possible applications for each push- button are indicated in each drawing. A. MCT-234  (Fig 11): ‘Keyfob’ transmitter - one unit is supplied with PowerMax+. You can program the AUX (auxiliary) button to perform various tasks, in accordance with the user’s needs.  Figure 11. MCT-234 B. MCT-231 / 201* (Fig. 12): (N.A. in North America) Single-button pendant units. The MCT-231 (Code- Secure) and the MCT-201 (PowerCode) can be enrolled to perform functions as shown. Both units look alike. Figure 12. MCT-231 / 201* Not UL listed.

Figure 15. MCT-131 / 101F. MCT-211* (Fig. 16) Water- proof, wrist-worn PowerCode transmitter. Can be enrolled to perform emergency or non-alarm functions.  Figure 16. MCT-211 * Not UL-listed - not to be used in UL-listed systems 3.9 PowerMax+ Compatible WL Siren The MCS-700 (*) wireless siren (fig. 17) can be integrated with the PowerMax+ in areas in which wiring action is difficult or impossible. The MCS-700 is a fully supervised, 2-way communication device (it includes a receiver, to receive activation commands from the alarm system, and a transmitter to periodically transmit its status signal to the alarm system).  Figure 17 Wireless Siren When an identifiable activation command is received from the PowerMax+, the siren activates its sounder and the flash light (strobe light every 1.5 seconds). * Not UL-listed - not to be used in UL-listed systems 3.10 Installing an Optional X-10 Siren (Not to be used in UL-listed systems) If you need a “wireless” external siren, you may install an X-10 siren module which is triggered by a signal transmitted  via the built-in electrical wiring of the protected site. This siren can replace the regular external siren or complement it without laying out additional wires. Of course, such a siren can be used only in conjunction with an optional power-line interface module.  The X-10 siren is ready to function upon connection to an electrical power outlet, without re-programming the Power- Max+. You only have to set the HOUSE CODE and the UNIT CODE selectors on the X-10 siren as follows: House Code: Set this selector to the letter that follows, by alphabetical order, the letter that you programmed as a house code for the protected premises. For example, if the programmed house code is “J”, set the siren house code selector to “K”. Note: If the programmed house code letter is “P” (which is the last programmable letter), select “A” for the siren. Unit Code: The siren will function only if you set the unit code selector to “1”. 3.11 Connecting PowerMax+ to a Computer The control panel can be equipped with an optional RS232 module for serial data interchange with a local computer. If this module is not supplied, a special plastic cap blocks the niche designed to accommodate the module. Attention: For data download from a local computer, the PowerMax+ must be set to the installer mode. Insert the RS-232 adapterinto its male connector,until a click is heard21Remove plastic capRJ-45orRJ-31X(USA) Figure 18 - Connecting the PowerMax+ to a Computer 3. 12 Connecting PowerMax+ to GSM Modem The GSM unit enables the PowerMax+ system to operate over cellular network. For details regarding the GSM modem features and connections, refer to the GSM Modem installation instructions.  4. TESTING PROCEDURES 4.1 Preparations Make sure all windows and doors are closed. If all zones are secured (undisturbed), the display should read:  READY     HH:MM If the display is “NOT READY”, query the control panel by pressing the <SHOW/OK> 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 4.2 below). 4.2 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 9 in the Programming Guide.  4.3 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 unit’s AWAY key, the ARM indicator should light. The display should respond as follows: ARMING AWAY  Ð  PLEASE EXIT NOW The exit delay beeps will begin.
8  DE5465 Press the keyfob unit’s DISARM ( ) key. The ARM indicator should extinguish, the announcement “Disarm, ready to arm" should be heard and the display should revert to:  READY      HH:MM 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”, press the AWAY button and then the AUX button. The response should be:  ARMING INSTANT   (alternating)      PLEASE EXIT NOW 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. 4.4 Appliance ON/OFF Test 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 “X”s 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:  BY TIMER ON       and:  BY SENSOR ON     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 installer’s 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. 4.5 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, the display should read:   Z22   EMERGENCY   (alternating)      VIOLATED It is advisable to let the central station know that you are conducting this test, or just disconnect the telephone line from the PowerMax+ during the test, to prevent false alarms.  5. MAINTENANCE 5.1 Dismounting the Control Panel A. Release the PowerMax+ unit from its bracket, as shown in figure 2, step 1-5. B. Separate the PowerMax+ unit from its bracket. 5.2 Replacing the Backup Battery Replacement and first-time insertion of battery pack is similar (see figure 1).  With fresh battery pack, correct insertion and tightened 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. 5.3  Fuse Replacement The PowerMax+ has two internal fuses that have automatic reset. Therefore, there is no need to replace fuses. When overcurrent condition occurs, the fuse cuts off the circuit current. Upon fault current being removed, the fuse is automatically resetted and allows current flow through the circuit again. 5.4 Replacing/Relocating Detectors Whenever the maintenance work involves replacement or re-location of detectors, you must keep in mind the requirement to provide a 6 dB safety margin for signal reception.  It is therefore mandatory to perform a full diagnostic test according to Section 9 of the Programming Guide.  Remember! A "poor" signal is not acceptable, as stated at the end of the test procedure.

DE5465  11         Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Statements FCC PART 15 STATEMENT This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. WARNING! Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.  The digital circuits of this device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in residential installations. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio and television reception. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this device does cause such interference, which can be verified by turning the device off and on, the user is encouraged to eliminate the interference by one or more of the following measures: – Re-orient or re-locate the receiving antenna. – Increase the distance between the device and the receiver. – Connect the device to an outlet on a circuit different from the one which supplies power to the receiver. – Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician.  FCC PART 68 STATEMENT This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. On the front cover of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, the FCC registration number and ringer equivalence number (REN) for this equipment. If requested, this information must be provided to the telephone company. This equipment uses the following jacks: An RJ31X is used to connect this equipment to the telephone network. The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices which may be connected to the telephone line. Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to the line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the telephone company to determine the maximum REN for the calling area. If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. If advance notice is not practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe necessary. The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens, the telephone company will provide advance notice that will enable you to make the necessary modifications in order to maintain uninterrupted service. If trouble is experienced with this equipment, please contact the manufacturer for repair and warranty information. If the trouble is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may request that you remove the equipment from the network until the problem is resolved. There are no user serviceable components in this product, and all necessary repairs must be made by the manufacturer. Other repair methods may invalidate the FCC registration on this product. This equipment cannot be used on telephone company-provided coin service. Connection to Party Line Service is subject to state tariffs. When programming or making test calls to an emergency number, briefly explain to the dispatcher the reason for the call. Perform such activities in the off-peak hours; such as early morning or late evening. Alarm dialing equipment must be able to seize the telephone line and place a call in an emergency situation. It must be able to do this even if other equipment (telephone, answering system, computer modem, etc.) already has the telephone line in use. To do so, alarm dialing equipment must be connected to a properly installed RJ31X jack that is electrically in series with and ahead of all other equipment attached to the same telephone line. If you have any questions concerning these instructions, you should consult your telephone company or a qualified installer about installing the RJ31X jack and alarm dialing equipment for you.
