3.9 PowerMax+ Compatible WL Siren 
The MCS-700 (*) wireless siren (fig. 17) can be 
integrated with the PowerMax+ in areas in 
which wiring action is difficult or impossible. 
The MCS-700 is a fully supervised, 2-way 
communication device (it includes a receiver, 
to receive activation commands from the alarm 
system, and a transmitter to periodically 
transmit its status signal to the alarm system).

Wireless 
Siren 
When an identifiable activation command is received from 
the PowerMax+, the siren activates its sounder and the flash 
light (strobe light every 1.5 seconds).

3.10 Installing an Optional X-10 Siren 
(Not to be used in UL-listed systems) 
If you need a “wireless” external siren, you may install an X-
10 siren module which is triggered by a signal transmitted  
via the built-in electrical wiring of the protected site. This 
siren can replace the regular external siren or complement it 
without laying out additional wires. Of course, such a siren 
can be used only in conjunction with an optional power-line 
interface module.  
The X-10 siren is ready to function upon connection to an 
electrical power outlet, without re-programming the Power- 
Max+. You only have to set the HOUSE CODE and the 
UNIT CODE selectors on the X-10 siren as follows: 
House Code: Set this selector to the letter that follows, by 
alphabetical order, the letter that you programmed as a 
house code for the protected premises. For example, if the 
programmed house code is “J”, set the siren house code 
selector to “K”. 
Note: If the programmed house code letter is “P” (which is 
the last programmable letter), select “A” for the siren. 
Unit Code: The siren will function only if you set the unit 
code selector to “1”. 
3.11 Connecting PowerMax+ to a Computer 
The control panel can be equipped with an optional RS232 
module for serial data interchange with a local computer. If 
this module is not supplied, a special plastic cap blocks the 
niche designed to accommodate the module. 
Attention: For data download from a local computer, the 
PowerMax+ must be set to the installer mode. 
Insert the RS-232 adapter
into its male connector,

Modem installation instructions. 
 
4. TESTING PROCEDURES 
4.1 Preparations 
Make sure all windows and doors are closed. If all zones 
are secured (undisturbed), the display should read: 
  READY     HH:MM 
If the display is “NOT READY”, query the control panel by 
pressing the <SHOW/OK> button repeatedly. The 
source(s) of the problem(s) will be displayed and read 
aloud. Take the necessary measures to eliminate the 
problem(s) before testing the system (see 4.2 below). 
4.2 Diagnostic Test  
To verify proper function of all detectors in the system, a 
comprehensive diagnostic test is required. To perform this 
test, refer to figure 9 in the Programming Guide.  
4.3 Keyfob Transmitter Test 
Initiate transmission from each transmitter enrolled as a 
keyfob unit (according to the list in Table A2, Appendix A). 
Use each transmitter to arm the control panel AWAY and 
immediately disarm it. Upon pressing the keyfob unit’s 
AWAY key, the ARM indicator should light. 
The display should respond as follows: 
ARMING AWAY  
Ð
 
  PLEASE EXIT NOW 
The exit delay beeps will begin.
