TEMPERATURE ALARMS

Temperature sensors can be used

to signal that a temperature (in a

special room, like a greenhouse or

wine cooler) has gotten too high or

too low. If the temperature in this
zone goes above the HI setpoint or

below the LO setpoint, the console

beeper is activated (inside and

outside sirens are not activated)

and the central station and/or
voice dialer is called.

The HI and LO setpoints are

changed as described for the PESM.

Use the zone number that the tem-
perature sensor is connected to in

place of the unit number.

NOTE: Setting a LO or HI tem-

perature to 0 takes it out of ser-
vice.

DIRECT RELAY CONTROL

The Model 1503 has three outputs

that can be used to switch relays.

Two are Auxiliary Outputs 1 and 2,

and they are available only if not
used by a Model 1101 PESM. The

third is the OK TO ARM output,

which can be reassigned from that

function to a general purpose out-

put by your dealer.

Auxiliary Outputs 1, 2 and the

OK TO ARM output (if reassigned)

are controlled as UNIT NUMBER 17,

18 and 19 respectively. These are
hardwired outputs that are con-

nected directly through the Model

1503 and not through a module. If

you have had something connected to

Outdoor temperature zones have a

HI and LO temperature associated

with them that can be used for

control purposes. An example where
the bathroom heat is turned on if

the outdoor temp goes below 60

degrees is shown in the PROGRAM-

MING section. HI and LO tempera-

tures are changed the same way as
the PESM.

The outdoor temperature is an-

nunciated over the telephone as

part of the status menu (main menu
selection 6). It is also annunci-

ated through the home control menu

after the unit number is entered.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL OF
APPLIANCES

You can control appliances con-

nected to X-10 modules (such as a

ceiling fan) using the BUTTONS

feature of the Model 1503. For

example, the ceiling fan can be

programmed to come on if the tem-
perature goes above the HI tempera-

ture. (A programming example to set

this up is shown in the PROGRAMMING

section.)

HI and LO setpoints for tempera-

ture zones are changed the same way

as the PESM. Use the zone number of

the PESM for “unit number” when

changing the HI and LO setpoints.
However, on/off control of the

ceiling fan may involve a different

unit number. Use the ceiling fan's

unit number to turn it ON or OFF.

The PESM and the ceiling fan are
linked together by a button pro-

gram.
