Introduction
The battery-operated wireless sounders for your ABUS wireless alarm system offer
you fast, flexible installation without elaborate cable-laying. The wireless sounders
work bidirectional – i.e., radio signals are sent to the wireless sounders, and
tamper messages are sent from the sounders to your alarm system.
Features
Alarm and tamper signalling
In the event of an alarm or tampering, the wireless sounders are activated and
start to register an alarm visually and audibly. The alarm duration is defined by
a setting in the programming menu. However, the maximum alarm time is
limited to 5 minutes to save energy, regardless of the setting.
Battery monitoring
If the batteries are low, this is reported to the system.
Φ Battery for radio transmitter/receiver
Φ Battery for audible/visual alert
Supervision
The wireless sounders send a signal to the system every 65 minutes. If the
function is enabled, the system monitors the arrival of this signal.
Pre-alarm function
The pre-alarm function is an important security function. If it is enabled, the
system sends a signal to the wireless sounders at the start of the entry delay
period. This arms the wireless sounders. If they are not disarmed when the
delay period expires, they automatically trigger an alarm. So if the system is
destroyed within the entry delay period, an alarm is still sounded.
IMPORTANT:
This function must be enabled in the programming menu.
Self-test
Press the reset button on the PC board of the wireless sounder to run a self-
test. If the sounder detects a fault, it is reported to the system. You can also
start a test from the system.
LED display
The wireless sounders have 2 LEDs. The LEDs are active for 10 minutes after
opening the tamper contact.
Red: Activates on sending
Yellow: Indicates a low battery
Red and yellow (3 seconds): Confirms successful learning
