Wireless Sounder Instructions

Pre Alarm indication
This wireless sounder incorporates a pre-alarm feature that enhances the security of
the system by producing a local alarm in case of sabotage.
If defined, the system sends a pre-alarm signal to the sounder at the beginning of the
entry delay. If the sounder does not receive a cancellation signal from the system at
the end of the entry time, the sounder goes into alarm mode.

Step 3: Testing the Sounder
Communication Test
The sounder communication test performs a communication test between the sounder
receiver and the system.
To perform a communication test:
1. Access the communication test option.
NOTE:
WisDom: Engineer menu > 9) Devices > 2) Sounders > 3) Communication test
Agility: Engineer menu > 2) Testing > 5) Sounder > 1) Communication test
LightSYS (V2.40 and above): Installer Code/User menu: Maintenance > Wireless Test >Wireless
Sounders > Comm. Test.
2. The system sends a test signal to the sounders. A number between 00-99 indicates
the strength of the communication signal between the system and the sounder.
NOTE:
For successful communication, the strength of the signal should be higher that the sounder receiver
noise threshold level.

Diagnostics
The Diagnostics menu enables to test parameters reflecting the operation of the
sounder:
Speaker batteries voltage: Tests the selected sounder’s speaker batteries voltage
Radio batteries voltage: Tests the selected sounder’s radio's batteries voltage
Sounder version: Displays information regarding the sounder's version
