BATTERY MONITORING
All system devices continuously monitor their battery
condition. If the battery level of any device drops
below acceptable levels then its low battery indication
will be activated.
In addition if any PIR or Magnetic Contact detector
has
a low battery status it will be recorded by the Control
Panel and a message stored in the
Event Log.
When a low battery indicator is activated the device will
continue to operate normally for up to 2 weeks
(depending upon system use). However, the
battery for
that device should be replaced as soon as possible.
Note: Before removing the battery cover on any device
to replace the battery ensure that the system is put into
Test mode to avoid initiating a Full Alarm condition.
The low battery indication for each system component
is as follows:
Control Panel:
During a period of mains supply interruption the
Control Panel will be powered by the rechargeable
backup batteries.
Under normal battery conditions the Power LED
on the panel will flash at 1s intervals. However,
under low battery conditions the Power LED will
flash at 3s interval.
Remote Control:
When the Remote Control is operated under low-
battery conditions the transmit LED will continue
to flash after the button has been released.
Under normal battery conditions the LED will
extinguish within 2s of the button being released.
PIR Movement Detector:
If the voltage level of any PIR battery falls below
approx. 7.5V, the LED behind the detector lens will
flash when movement is detected to indicate that
the battery needs to be replaced.
Under normal battery conditions the LED does
not illuminate unless the PIR detector is in Walk
Test mode.
Magnetic Contact Detector:
Under low battery conditions, when the Detector is
activated, the transmit LED will be illuminated for
approximately 1s as the door/window is opened.
Under normal battery conditions the LED will not
illuminate as the Detector is operated, (unless the
Detector is in Test Mode with the battery cover
removed).
