SYSTEM 236 Installation Manual
ALPHA II KEYPAD INFORMATION
KEYPAD SETUP
The Alpha II keypad uses a top viewing display. This means the display
reads most clearly when viewed from a top angle rather than straight on or
from below. Mounting the keypad at the light switch level and adjusting the
viewing angle gives the best results.
When operated as a Su-
pervised Loop, an open
will be reported as a
Trouble, whether the sys-
tem is armed or disarmed.
A short on a Supervised
Loop will be reported as
an alarm if the system is
armed, but will have no
effect if the system is dis-
armed.
1. Position the tamper switch inside the cabinet at the lower right
corner of the cabinet. For the wall tamper, the plunger should go
through the small hole in the back of the cabinet. For the door
tamper, the plunger should face out from the cabinet. Refer to the
drawing below.
2. Connect the tamper switches in series and wire the tamper
terminals to a dedicated zone of the control panel.
3. Program the dedicated zone as desired: NC, EOL, 24-hour, etc.
Once the tamper switches are installed, opening the cabinet door or
removing the cabinet from the wall will result in a tamper signal at
the panel.
TAMPER SWITCH INSTALLATION
C&K has designed the SYSTEM 236 cabinet to use the Ademco Model
19 tamper switch. The cabinet is constructed in order to accommodate
two switches. One tamper for the cover and a second switch for a wall
tamper. To install the tamper switches:

9.X PCF
The 9.X PCF has eight flying leads on one end.
TELEPHONE INTERFACE
Use the 9.X PCF cord to connect the SYSTEM 236 to
the phone line. The cord has a modular connector on
one end to plug into the wall outlet and flying leads on
the other end to connect to the panel. Wire the phone
connector as follows:
Fifteen minutes after the panel is powered up, it will dynamically test the
standby battery by interrupting AC power for two minutes and monitoring
the battery under load.
Voltage Variations
Output voltages will vary between 9 and 14.4 VDC (worst case), depend-
ing on the load and battery condition.
If you replace the battery after a SYSTEM TROUBLE - LOW BATTERY
message, you must re-test the battery under load conditions. Press
[*] [6] [4] [#] to start the Dynamic Battery Test.
NOTE: Some Alpha keypads may use [SHIFT] and [ENTER]
in place of the [*] and [#] keys, respectively.
