Notes on security system
The TERXON M burglar alarm panel enables you to
configure each of the 8 (max. 32) alarm zones optimally
to suit your operating conditions. Recommendations:
• Distribute the external detectors in as small groups as
possible to the zones (e.g., ground-floor detector to zone 1,
etc.); activate detectors singly; if possible, use all zones of
the alarm centre.
• The acoustic signal (siren) of the signal transmitter should
be shorter than the visual signal (flashlight). Alarm times
must be set according to local regulations. (E.g., in
Germany, the acoustic alarm must be limited to 3 minutes.)
• The delay time should not be finally set until a practical test
has been conducted.
• Choose a random 4-digit or 6-digit combination for the
user and program code.
• Only persons of trust should be given the code.
• When operating the alarm centre, enter the code in such a
way that it is concealed from persons standing nearby.
• The cable recommended for connecting the components
(minimum diameter: 0.6 mm/wire) is normally colour-
coded.
• The user and program codes must be different.
For reasons of clear layout, use the following colour coding:
Red: +12V voltage supply
Black: 0V ground
Yellow: Alarm contact
Green: Alarm contact
Brown: Tamper contact
White: Tamper contact
• Use distributors when connecting more than one detector to
an alarm zone. Cable extensions can be soldered or
screwed together. Ensure good insulation (insulating tape,
shrink-on tubing) to avoid short-circuiting and false alarms.
See the illustration on the next page.
• Proceed as follows:
1. Read the operating instructions carefully.
2. Draw up a plan of the object that includes the
installation location of the detectors and the alarm
centre and all cables required.
3. Lay the cables as required.
4. Install the detectors and the alarm centre.
5. Connect the cables to the detectors and the alarm
centre.
6. Connect the power supply (battery, mains).
7. Program the device.
