Home Alarm Center (490-0450A) Features Faxback Doc. # 8100 Your Safe House Alarm Center is a sophisticated perimeter alarm system. When properly installed, it will warn you if anyone attempts to make unauthorized entry into your home or office. Its many professional features make it compatible with nearly any intrusion sensing device or alarm sounding device. It can even activate a Security Telephone Dialer that will automatically call the police, a security service or a friend when the alarm is activated. 2 Alarm Trigger Loops - Instant and delayed alarm loops are available with separate circuits for normally open and normally closed devices. Momentary Contact - Panic/Tamper Loop - This additional loop can be connected to N.O. switches or sensing devices and will activate the alarm center anytime. This is ideal for panic/tamper switches or 24 hour protection of property inside the house. When this loop is violated, the entire alarm center is automatically armed. Battery Back-Up - The batteries will give you up to 40 hours of armed operation or 2 complete alarm cycles (5 minutes each), in case of a power failure. The system requires either 8 alkaline or 10 nickel-cadmium C-cell batteries. Nickel cadmium batteries will automatically recharge inside the unit. Automatic Alarm Reset - The alarm center will activate for 5 minutes, when a loop is violated, and then reset for future operation, if the loop has been returned to its normal state. If the loop has not been returned to the normal state, the alarm will stop after 5 minutes, but the alarm center will not reset. Remote Arm/Disarm Connections - Up to 10 remote switches, for arming and disarming the alarm center, can be connected anywhere you like. Entry Exit Delay - The entry and exit delay times are independently adjustable (0 to 45 seconds). This will give you time to get out of the premises after arming the alarm center and time to disarm it after entering the premises. Pre-Alarm Circuit - This circuit will activate a buzzer during the entry delay time, to remind you to disarm the alarm center. Use of this circuit is optional. It will not work if the delay time is set to . External Alarm Output - Powers 12V DC alarm devices (such as a bell, siren or strobe light), rated up to 1 amp total. Battery Test Led - Indicates the condition of the batteries, when the battery test button is pressed. Loop Led - This indicator lights when all loops are intact. There are connections for remote loop leds for use with remote arm/disarm installations. This led blinks during the entry delay time, as a visual reminder to disarm the alarm center. Arm Led - This led lights when the alarm center is armed and blinks when the alarm has been triggered. It will continue to blink until you disarm the alarm center. This warns you there has been an alarm condition while you where away. An alarm led can be included in a remote arm/disarm installation, also. AC Power Led - Lights when AC power is present. Auxiliary Output - Provides a constant 12V Dc output to power Auxiliary devices. Dry Contact Terminals - An internal N.O. relay, connected to these terminals, will close when the alarm center activates. This relay can be used as a switch to turn on a device that has its own power supply. (SMC/jlc-03/22/94)
