Alignment & Adjustment

Overview

All the 4100U-S1 cards and modules in the base panel are tested and aligned in the

 

factory before being supplied to the customer. The only field adjustment that may be

 

necessary is to set the battery charger voltage. (Note this has been set and should not

 

need re-adjusting).

Battery Charger Voltage

 

Should the battery charger voltage need adjusting, the method is as follows:

 

1.

Run the system with the batteries connected and the door closed for at least 30

 

 

minutes to allow components to "warm up" (the longer the better).

 

2.

Calculate the required no-load battery charging voltage by taking 27.3V for

 

 

20°C and subtracting 0.1V for every 3°C above 20°C, or adding 0.1V for every

 

 

3°C below 20°C.

 

3.

With the system not in Alarm, disconnect the batteries.

 

4.

Measure the voltage at the battery terminals on the SPS and adjust this to the

 

 

voltage calculated in Step 2 by turning pot R341 on the SPS.

 

5.

Re-connect the batteries.
