Overview
The PowerMax Pro is a wireless alarm control
system that provides protection against burglary, fire
and tampering. In addition, it can be used to control
lights and electrical appliances within your household
and/or to monitor the activity of disabled or elderly
people left at home. Status information is presented
visually and verbally, and in most cases a recorded
voice prompts you to take correct action.
The PowerMax Pro is governed by a control panel
(Figure 1) designed to collect data from various
sensors that are strategically located within and
along the perimeter of the protected site (Figure 2).
In the disarmed state, the system provides you with
visual and verbal status information, and initiates an
alarm if smoke is detected or upon disturbance in a
24-hour zone (a zone which is active 24-hours a
day).
In the armed state, the system will initiate an alarm
upon detection of disturbance in any one of the
armed zones.
You will need a 4-digit security code to master the
system (code 0000 is disallowed), and you can
authorize 7 other persons to use the system by
providing them with their own security codes.
Moreover, you can obtain up to 8 multi-function key-
ring transmitters and proximity tags that will allow
you and other users to easily control major functions.
Proximity tags enable authorized people to enter
restricted areas. Presenting valid proximity tag, while
the system is armed, causes the system to disarm.
Presenting valid proximity tag, while the system is
disarmed, causes the system to be armed in AWAY
(optional HOME) mode.
The system identifies a wide range of events -
alarms, attempts to tamper with sensors and several
types of trouble. Events are automatically reported
via the public telephone network or GSM network to
central monitoring stations (in digital form) and to
private telephones (in plain language and/or SMS
messages). The person receiving such a message is
expected to investigate the event and act
accordingly.
