INTRODUCTION
Elmes CB32 is a programmable, wireless alarm control panel designed for use in anti-
burglary, anti-robbery, intrusion detection and access control installations in houses, apart-
ments and offices. It operates with any Elmes Electronic made wireless detectors, transmitter
RP501, remote control transmitters and some wired detectors. Its three 1A current fused
alarm signaling outputs are intended for connecting external signaling devices such as sirens,
bells strobes and automatic alarm notification devices as phone dialer. The panel features a
real-time clock, non-editable memory log of last 256 events and may be programmed, if con-
nected to Elmes GSM module, to send SMS alarm notifications, status and event monitoring
as well as be armed and disarmed by mobile phone. The backlit LCD displays appropriate sta-
tus information while numeric keypad allows convenient handling and programming of the
control panel. In the event of AC power failure, dedicated software procedures initiate low en-
ergy consumption mode allowing 72-hour panel autonomy operation with just two internal
1800mAh AA type rechargeable batteries. The panel supports up to 16 system users and en-
ables monitoring of up to 32 wireless and two parametric wired detectors identified as alarm
zones. Each user and alarm zone can have any user defined 16 characters name.
The CB32 control panel also supports wireless detectors in wired alarm systems. It may be
powered from the power supply line of the wired system, and its three signaling outputs can
be connected to the alarm detection terminals of a wired control panel.
General features of Elmes CB32 control panel:
- microprocessor architecture, alphanumeric backlit LCD display and real-time clock,
- 32 wireless and two wired parametric alarm zones with user defined names,
- identification of 16 users including 4 administrators with defining their names,
- arming and disarming of the panel by entering a password (3 to 6 digits access code) from
the keypad, by the use of remote control transmitter,
- wide range of alarm zone types for specialized purposes,
- functional modes of partial arming of the control panel (day, night modes),
- panic and robbery alarm function (call for help) activated by remote control,
- operation with Elmes GSM module for remote arming, disarming, notification and monitoring
and of alarm system using SMS and CLIP (*) calls,
- memory of the last 256 events, such as arming, disarming, alarms and power failures,
- acoustic signalling (beeps) of entry in a “chime type” zone,
- entry delay activated either by remote control, entering delayed zone or mobile phone,
- programmable “entry” and “exit” delay times in the range from 0 to 99 seconds,
- operation with Elmes WSS wireless external siren & strobe,
- wireless detector and external wireless siren presence monitoring,
- three wired alarm outputs with 1A fused overload protection and user defined signalling pur-
pose (e.g. alarm, AC power failure, signalling or system arming), and programmable alarm-
ing time (0-999s),
- tamper sabotage protection for external signalling device wired to OUT1,
- radio jamming sabotage protection notified as alarm in zone 30,
- parametric (1 kOhm) input for TAMPER sabotage protection of external devices,
- RF monitor of signals received from detectors and interferences in the radio band,
