4 PERFECTA 64 M SATEL
1. Introduction
Thank you for choosing this product by SATEL. Read this manual before you start using the
alarm system.
It is recommended that the installer prepare and deliver to the users a customized
alarm system user manual. The manual must include all changes and modifications in
relation to the factory default settings.
The installer should train the users in the rules of operating the alarm system.
2. Technical reliability of the alarm system
A failure of any component of the alarm system will result in deterioration of the level of
protection. Unfortunately, the devices which are installed outside (e.g. the outdoor sirens) are
exposed to the adverse effects of weather. During storms, the devices connected to the
electrical system are vulnerable to damage as a result of atmospheric discharge.
The control panel is provided with a number of safeguards and automatic diagnostic features
to test the system performance. Detection of irregularities is signaled in the keypad by an
indicator. You should immediately respond to such a signal, and, if necessary, consult
the installer.
In addition, some features designed for testing the alarm system are available in the control
panel. They make it possible to check the detectors, sirens, control panel cellular
communicator, etc for correct functioning. Only regular testing and inspection of the
alarm system will allow you to keep a high level of protection against intrusion.
It is recommended that the installer, at the request of the user, carry out periodic
maintenance of the alarm system.
It is in the interest of the user to anticipate and plan in advance the procedures in case an
alarm is set off by the control panel. It is important to be able to verify the alarm, determine its
source and take appropriate actions (e.g. evacuation in the event of a fire alarm).
3. Alarm system operating costs
The control panel can inform the users and the monitoring station about the status of
protected facility. Realization of these features means financial costs. The amount of the
costs incurred depends on the amount of information sent. A failure, as well as an incorrect
programming of the control panel, may result in increased costs (due to making of excessive
number of calls).
Please inform the installer, which is a priority: to deliver information at any cost, or to prevent
excessive costs. For example, after an event code has failed to be sent successfully to the
monitoring station, the control panel may repeat attempts every few minutes to send the code
or to cease the attempts to send the code until a next event occurs.
4. Glossary
Alarm – warning that an intruder or other hazard (e.g. glass pane break, gas detection, etc.)
has been detected in the protected area by the detectors. The alarm can be signaled in
keypads or by sirens (during a defined time or until cleared). Additionally, information on
the alarm can be sent to the monitoring station or the user.
