Diagnostics of the
control panel and
peripherals
You can test the function of all wireless
sensors deployed throughout the protected
area, to collect information about the
received signal strength from each
transmitter and to review accumulated data
after the test.
To perform diagnostics and to obtain
signal strength indication: see section 5.9
Diagnostics.
Conducting periodic
tests
The system should be tested at least once a
week and after an alarm. The periodic test
can be conducted locally or from a remote
location (with the assistance from a non-
technical person in the house).
To conduct a walk test locally: see
Chapter 6 Periodic Test.
To conduct a walk test from remote
location: refer to the Remote Programmer
PC software User's Guide, Chapter 6 Data
Details Tables.
Partitions
The partitioning feature, when enabled,
divides your alarm system into distinct areas
each of which operates as an individual
alarm system. Partitioning can be used in
installations where shared security systems
are more practical, such as a home office or
warehouse building.
1. Enable partitioning: see section 5.13
Partitioning.
2. Setup partition association for each
device: see section 5.4.2 Adding New
Wireless Devices or Wired Sensors.
To understand more about partitioning:
see APPENDIX B. Working with Partitions
and APPENDIX B. in the User's Guide.
Two-way voice
communication
1
The WP8010/WP8030 system enables voice
communication with Monitoring Stations.
To enable and configure two way voice:
see section 5.6.4 Configuring Events
Reporting to Monitoring Stations.
Device configuration
templates
The default parameters with which a new
device is enrolled into the system can be set
before you enroll devices. This default
template saves time on device configuration.
1. Define enrollment defaults for devices:
see section 5.4.7 Defining Configuration
Defaults for "Device Settings".
2. Enroll or pre-enroll devices: see section
5.4.2 Adding New Wireless Devices or Wired
Sensors.
SirenNet - distributed
siren using Smoke
detectors
All PowerG smoke detectors are able to
function as sirens, alerting on any of 4 types of
alarm in the system: fire, gas, burglary and
flood.
Note: For UL installations, smoke detectors
alert only upon fire alarm in the system.
Enable and configure SirenNet for each
smoke detector: refer to the (PGX926 /
PGX916.) Installation Instructions.
Integrated Siren built
into the panel
The control panel has a high-powered built-in
siren that sounds in case of alarm, enabled by
default.
To define whether or not the control
panel's siren will sound upon alarms: see
section 5.5.5 Configuring Sirens Functionality.
Wired Siren outputs
The control panel can operate a wired siren
and strobe devices.
Install and connect wired siren: see
section 4.9 Optional Expander Module
Mounting.
Wired zones and
programmable
outputs (PGM)
The control panel can support wired detectors
and control automation devices with
programmable wired outputs.
1. Connect a wired zone or PGM device:
see section 3.6 Adding a Wired Zone or
PGM.
2. Program the wired zone: see section
5.4.2 Adding New Wireless Devices or Wired
Sensors.
3. Program PGM outputs behavior: see
section 5.7 PGM Output.
