3. TYPICAL SYSTEM SENSORS

DOOR/WINDOW SENSOR

◆Sensor mounts on door or window with adjacent magnet.

◆Opening door or window moves magnet away, triggering sensor.

◆Internal lithium batteries are monitored by the

Console.

◆Sends hourly status reports to the Console.

◆Up to 3 years battery life (depends on frequency of activation).

WIRELESS KEYPAD

◆ For controlling the system without having to go to the Console.

◆Emergency and fire alarm can be triggered from wireless keypad at any time.

◆Green operation light.

◆Internal 9-volt battery is monitored by the

Console.

◆ Keypad’s beeper will buzz during transmissions when the battery is low.

◆ Up to 3 years battery life (depends on frequency of activation).

◆ Sends hourly status reports to the Console. ◆ Press the [(A)] key to activate the automation

output.

◆Pressing [∗] clears the keypad.

◆Holding [∗] for two seconds sounds the mode beeps from the Console.

✔Off Mode: 1 “Gong”

✔Chime Mode: 1 “Gong” & 1 “Beep”.

✔Home Mode: 1 “Gong” & 2 “Beeps”.

✔Away Mode: 1 “Gong” & 3 “Beeps”.

✔Test Mode: 1 “Bing” & 4 “Beeps”.

ABOUT SENSOR STATUS SUPERVISION

All DXS Format sensors transmit hourly status reports. All DXT Format sensors do not transmit hourly status reports. Both sensor formats can be used with the Console.

When a sensor is programmed into the Console, the Console will set the sensor as non-supervised or supervised. Sensors set as non-supervised are not expected to send hourly status reports. Sensors set as supervised are expected to send hourly status reports. If a status report is not received in 8 hours from a sensor set as supervised, the TROUBLE indicator will flash.

When sensors are programmed into the Console, ALL

STATIONARY SENSORS ARE SET AS SUPERVISED, ALL PORTABLE SENSORS ARE SET AS NON-SUPERVISED.

If stationary DXT Format sensors have been programmed into the Console, be sure to change their setting to non-supervised to prevent TROUBLE indications. This will not prevent low battery monitoring.

If portable DXS Format sensors have been programmed into the Console, and the installation requires supervision for specific portable sensor(s), change the selected portable sensors setting to supervised.

After programming the sensors, if changes are required, refer to “Changing a Sensors Supervision” on Page 26 for details on changing the way a sensor’s supervision is set.
