Intruder alarm system Wiring manual

SAFETY WARNINGS
The device must be installed in a place with limited access.

The device must be connected to an AC power supply with Protective Earthing. Cable colours mean: Phase or Live line (L) - black
or brown cable, Neutral line (N) - blue cable, Protective Earth line (PE) - green cable with a vertical yellow dash. Double isolated
cables with minimum cross-sectional area of 0,75 mm2 for 230V power supply must be used.

The device uses two power supplies: main and back-up.

Main power supply: a power transformer with:
- primary winding: ~230V, 50 Hz;
- secondary winding: ~20V, 1.5A, 50Hz.
Back-up power supply: 12V, 7Ah/20HR capacity, rechargeable hermetically sealed Lead-Acid battery.

SECOLINK intruder alarm system GSV4 is compliant with EN 60950-1 safety requirements.
Power supplies described above must comply with the EN 60950-1 safety requirements.
All devices being connected with the intruder alarm system must comply with EN 60950-1 safety requirements.
Intruder alarm system is compliant with the essential requirements of Directives 1999/5/EC, 2004/108/EC, 2006/95/EC.
Intruder alarm system contains radio transceiver operating in GSM900/1800 bands.
Please read and follow these safety guidelines in order to maintain safety of operators and people around:
DO NOT use the intruder alarm system where it can interfere with other devices and cause any potential danger.
DO NOT use the intruder alarm system with medical devices.
DO NOT use the intruder alarm system in hazardous environment.
DO NOT expose the intruder alarm system to high humidity, chemical environment or mechanical impacts.
Additional automatic Two-Pole Circuit Breaker should be installed in an AC electric power circuit in order to protect against
over-current, short circuits and earthing faults.
The circuit breaker contact gap should be no less than 3mm, protective circuit breaker current must be in 0,5A - 2A range.
The circuit breaker should be placed close to the system's housing and should be easily accessed.

The device installation and service should be performed by trained personnel with sufficient knowledge about the device and
general safety requirements for work with low voltage (up to 1000V) AC power lines. In the case of a device malfunction repair
works can be performed by qualified personnel only. If the system is malfunctioning, the end user should inform the qualified
personnel as soon as possible. User doesn't have right to repair the system.

Before performing any work of installation or service always disconnect the device from power supplies in sequence as described
below:
- cut off 230 V AC power line with the automatic Two-pole Circuit Breaker;
- disconnect 12V back-up battery by removing battery female plug from male socket BAT.
Two-pole Circuit-Beaker installation on flexible cables is forbidden.

Intruder alarm system comes with in-built LEDs. The LEDs blink when device is powered up.

General safety requirements:

- do not touch any part of the main power supply under voltage: transformer, a fuse block, connection wires;
- it is forbidden to perform any device installation or service work during lightning;
- use batteries according to manufacturer recommendations. The use of improper battery type may cause an explosion;
- battery replacement : be sure battery terminals are isolated, battery terminals short-wiring may cause an explosion.

It is not recommended to connect the device to a fully discharged battery. To avoid system malfunction use an adequate charger to
charge a new or discharged battery before connecting battery to the device.
Inoperative or expired batteries should be recycled according to the local rules or EU directives 2006/66/EC and 93/86/EEC.
Collection and separate utilization of waste battery is mandatory!

The connection to the mains supply must be made as per the local authorities rules and regulations.
The end of a stranded conductor shall not be consolidated by soft-soldering, insulated pins shall be used. Insulated pins shall be
connected in a manner that they are and with remain mechanically efficient.

Please act according to your local rules and do not dispose of your unusable alarm system or its components with other household
waste. This product utilization in EU is covered by European Directive 2002/96/EC.

reset time expires, the system turns ON the PGM output again and waits for the detector

it was set under the Fire zone verification time. If the fire detector is triggered again, it
means the alarm was real.

Purpose of S1 and S2 buttons

GSV4 has two buttons: S1 and S2 on board. The purpose of each button depends on whether it’s module is working (powered) or not (not powered):
when the device is working, S1 and S2 buttons are used to enable service mode, register, download and upload the project in www.alarmserver.net. Pressing
each button certain amount of times corresponds to a specific function described in pictures below:

when the device is not working, S1 button is used to start a firmware upgrade procedure. The firmware upgrade mode can be turned on by pressing and holding
S1 button and connecting USB cable at the same time. The software Firmware Upgrade Tool. V.1.xx is used to upgrade the firmware.

Additional information (continued)

Key-switch zone wiring
GSV4 has got a zone definition PGM control, which can be used to connect a key-switch.It is possible to program this zone to arm the system when the zone is
violated, and to disarm and clear the alarm when the zone is restored.
There is an example below of how to connect and program the key-switch zone. The zone input is programmed to arm the system in Away mode when the zone is
violated (NC) and to disarm the system when the zone is restored (NO). If there is an alarm in the system, it will be cleared together with a disarming action.
