The PowerMax+ system can send SMS messages to a
registered SMS telephones (up to 4). (The SMS telephone
registration is preselected by the system installer).
The reported SMS messages are quite clear and self-
explanatory and therefore are not detailed in this guide.
Example of the reported SMS messages:
• JOHN’S HOME
**AWAY**
• JOHN’S HOME
**DISARM**
• JOHN’S HOUSE
POWERMAX: LOW BATTERY
GARAGE: LOW BATTERY
• JOHN’S HOUSE
STATUS MESSAGE 01
(Event list is displayed)
Note
Status messages can be sent only to a calling telephone
whose identity number is not blocked by the user!
6.7 Reporting Messages to a Pager
M
PAGER
PowerMax+
control
panel
Since the PowerMax+ can be programmed to report events
to a pager, the user of the pager must be informed on how
to interpret the numerical message that his pager displays.
Communication with a pager takes place as follows:
• The PowerMax+ dials the pager’s phone number, waits
5 seconds and sends the numerical message.
• The message transmitted by the PowerMax+ to the
pager is actually a string of digits, as follows:
[
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
]
[
YYY
]
[
0ZZ#
]
Pager’s PIN No. - Up to 16 digits
Programmed by the Installer
Zone or
User No.
Event
Type
Figure 6. Pager Message Structure
The person receiving the message sees only the “YYY -
0ZZ#” part of the message, which he can interpret by using
the following legend:
Events types (YYY) are coded as follows:
Event Code Event Code
Alarm 919 Fire 515
Trouble 818 Close 101
Emergency 717 Open 102
Panic 616 Latchkey 103
ZZ is the zone number in which the event occurred, or the
user number in case of Close
, Open and Latchkey events.
Example 1: Message reads “919-003”:
This means an alarm occurred in Zone No. 3.
Example 2: Message reads “101-008”:
This means the system was closed (armed) by user No. 8.
6.8 Conducting a Walk Test
The walk test is an indispensable operation by which you
verify that all detectors function properly, without disturbing
the neighbors with loud sirens. The test must be performed
at least once a week, and should include all detectors in
all zones.
Note: During the test period, 24-hour zones will not cause
an alarm if violated, but a fire zone will function normally.
A typical test will take place as follows:
A. Press the test button ( ).
B. The display will prompt you for your user code:
ENTER CODE ___
C. Enter your code. The siren will sound for 2 seconds and
the display will change to:
TESTING
D. Walk throughout the protected area and make sure you
trigger every detector with no exception (move across
the field of view of motion detectors and open/close
doors and windows). Each time a detector is triggered:
The “Happy Tune” will sound,
The zone name and number will be displayed briefly,
EXAMPLE 1: You triggered a motion detector in the
living room (zone 11). The display will show:
LIVING ROOM
Z11 Violated
After 5 seconds the display will revert to:
TESTING
EXAMPLE 2: You opened a window in the guest room
(zone 13). The display will show:
GUEST ROOM
Z13 Open
After 5 seconds the display will revert to:
TESTING
E. When done, click the button repeatedly. The
display will show the test results, zone after zone, in
ascending numerical order. For example:
GUEST ROOM
(alternating)
Z13 OK
or: “Z13 NOT OK” if there was no response from Z13.
F.
To resume testing, click . To quit the test mode,
click
. The display will then read:
< OK> TO EXIT
G. Click . The display will revert to its normal state.
7. USER SETTINGS
7.1 What are the Settings You Need?
The installer provides you a ready-to-use alarm system,
but a few settings and adjustments will still be needed.
Note: Although the user settings are your responsibility,
you may request your installer to perform them for you
(except for the user codes, which you would like to keep
secret).
The user settings include:
• Bypassing zones - determining which zones will be
bypassed (disabled) during the present disarm period and
the next armed period.
• Reviewing the bypass list - "show bypass" - displaying
the numbers and names of bypassed zone one by one.
• Recalling the last bypassing scheme - "recall bypass" -
re-using the previous bypassing scheme, which becomes
suspended after disarming but is still saved in the
PowerMax+ memory.
