MESSAGE TO THE INSTALLER
The PowerMax+ control panel is supplied with 3 instruction manuals:
„ Installation Instructions (this manual - for your exclusive use)
„ Programming Guide (for your exclusive use)
„ User’s Guide (for your use during installation only. Must be handed over to the master user after testing the system).
Appendices A and B of the installation instructions 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 Paragraphs 3.7 and 3.8 of this manual.
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. Paragraph 3.3 of this manual refers you to the programming guide.
The programming flow charts in the programming guide 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.
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 installer‘s menu or
through the user menu (see User’s manual section 7).
After programming, proceed to install the system as detailed in the Installation Instructions, from paragraph 3.4 onward.

3. 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 PowerMax+ 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 transformer (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).
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.

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!
DE5465
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.
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:

MCPIR-3000
or K-940 MCW
Figure 6
DISCOVERY

NEXT K985 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
Figure 7
door or window remains closed.
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“
Figure 8
message to the alarm system, depending
MCT-100
on the setting of an on-board “DIP” switch.
D. Wireless Smoke Detector

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 pushbutton are indicated in each drawing.

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 PowerMax+. 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.
Remove plastic cap
Insert the RS-232 adapter
into its male connector,
until a click is heard

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).

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.

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

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.
