Number of Alert Units
The number of alert units is
determined by each system’s
requirements. In general, enough alert
units should be installed to be heard
and seen from all outdoor locations of
protection. Remember, even in a silent
system, alert units can be used
outside to provide test feedback.
Horn/strobe units should be mounted in
predictable locations to make them
easy to identify by subscribers. Alert
units are not required indoors because
the indoor receiver provides alarm and
test feedback. Each transponder drives
one siren and one strobe if they are
less than 15 m (50 ft.) from the
transponder.
It is a good idea for each protected
parking lot to have a siren/strobe
near it.
2.3 Pre-Construction Coverage
Verification Survey
The pre-construction coverage
verification survey is performed after
the bid is accepted and before
construction begins. It is done to
determine the location of each
receiver. Each receiver location
should be checked using a standard
receiver in the test mode.
2.3.1 Verify Each Potential Receiver
Location
Using a standard receiver in Receiver
Spacing Mode
Receiver Spacing Mode is enabled with
Jumper P5 in place (Jumper P4 removed)
on a standard receiver (see the EA102
Receiver Installation Instructions).
This mode is exactly the same as the
Test Mode, except only transmissions
with an adequate receive margin are
sounded. This indicates the maximum
acceptable spacing of receivers. Use
the following procedure to test the
spacing of receivers:
1. Mount the first receiver. Put
jumpers P1, P2, P3, and P5 in
place, remove all other jumpers.
Power the receiver from a 9 VDC or
12 VDC source.
2. Take the second receiver and a
transmitter a distance away from
the first receiver.
3. Activate the transmitter.
4. If Receiver 1 sounds the test beep,
Receiver 2 is within range. Repeat
this test until Receiver 1 no
longer sounds the test beeps. Move
back to the last location where
Receiver 1 received the test beeps.
This location marks the maximum
spacing between receivers. The
distance between receivers should
not exceed 25 m (80 ft.) indoors
and 90 m (300 ft.) outdoors. Mount
Receiver 2 at this location or
closer to Receiver 1.
Note:
Do not use the Test Mode (Jumper
P4) to determine receiver spacing.
