NESS R8 CONTROL PANEL - USER MANUAL

The panel has a built-in keypad for programming and user operation, a built-in piezo siren, built-
in LCD display, built-in radio receiver, built-in battery backup and built-in dialler.
The R8 supports up to 8 Ness radio PIRs and up to 14 Ness Radio Keys. All Ness supervised and
encrypted radio devices are supported. There is even a Doorbell feature with selectable tunes
when used with the Ness Radio Doorbell transmitter.
In addition to radio devices, the R8 has 1 hardwired zone and 1 hardwired tamper input for
connection of a wired detection device and external siren cover tamper switch.
The built-in piezo siren provides high volume audible warning. The R8 also has Siren, Piezo and
Strobe outputs for additional hardwired noisemakers.
The R8 has a number of sophisticated power saving features designed to provide at least 48
hours service running on the backup battery alone. (This includes one full alarm condition with
sirens, strobe and dialler).
The built-in dialler uses Contact ID format for central station monitoring as well as audible monitoring
to any telephone. The user can also dial into the system for remote arming and disarming over
the telephone line.
