INTRODUCTION
Elmes Electronic CB32G is a programmable, wireless alarm control panel with integrated mo-
bile phone module, designed for use in anti-robbery, intrusion detection and access control in-
stallations. It operates with any Elmes Electronic made wireless detectors, RP501 transmitter-
receiver set, remote control transmitters and two wired detectors. Its three 1A current rated
fused alarm signalling outputs are designed for connecting external signalling devices such as
sirens, bells strobes and automatic alarm notification devices. The panel features a real-time
clock, non-editable memory log of last 256 events and may be programmed to be remotely
armed and disarmed by SMS and CLIP as well as send SMS alarm, status, failure and event
notifications. Backlit LCD panel displays appropriate status information while numeric keypad
allows convenient programming of the control panel. In the event of AC power failure, dedi-
cated software procedures initiate low energy consumption mode allowing over 24-hour panel
autonomy operation with two internal 600-850mAh Li-ION rechargeable batteries (type 14500
–AA size). The panel supports up to 16 system users and enables 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 CB32G control panel may be connected to and powered from any wired alarm system
with its alarm outputs connected to wired control panel.

FIRST USE OF CB32G CONTROL PANEL
If the control panel integral GSM module will be used, then an active SIM card will be needed.
The card should have SMS memory and address book cleared with voice mail box set off. The
SIM card may have PIN code protection set on or off. If the PIN code is on then it should have
the PIN set to 1234. This can be done using any other mobile phone. The use of SIM card

- 3 -
with other than 1234 PIN code in the CB32G control panel may cause the card to be
blocked!
In addition, two 3,7V Li-ION RECHARGABLE batteries (type 14500, AA size) with minimal
capacity of 600 mAh and AC/DC power supply pack with 10...20VDC - 1200mA (1.2A) output
should be prepared. The control panel may also be powered using external buffered power
supply (UPS) which will provide longer autonomy operation of the panel on AC power failure.
In that case, the use of internal Li-ION batteries is not required.
The following steps should be followed at first setting on the control panel:
- Remove back side of the panel cabinet.
- If GSM module is to be used, insert prepared SIM card to card socket, observing that
the cut corner of the card is in the left upper corner of the socket. The SIM card may al-
so be inserted anytime providing control panel power supply is set off.
- Connect power pack wires (plain without plug) to the control panel power supply con-
nectors observing marked polarity.
- If needed, insert the Li-ION batteries to the CB32G battery compartments carefully ob-
serving polarity marked inside.
WARNING! Correct battery polarity must be absolutely observed when inserting Li-ION batter-
ies. Incorrect battery placement may cause panel damage.
- Plug in AC/DC power pack to mains outlet socket. The control panel will initialize readi-
ness to operate displaying software version and initial time and date.
- Go to menu “Service Settings” (factory password: 0000) of the Main Menu and set up
required options to configure designed alarm system.
NOTE! The GSM module operation is factory set to OFF. To set its operation ON go to option
7.8 of the Service Settings and change the option.
Connecting to GSM network will be indicated by fast flashing blue LED. Slow flashing with 2-3
seconds intervals indicates that the module is logged to the network. In menu “System Users”
of “Service Settings” user/s phone number/s can be input and operating mode with control
panel defined. Remaining module settings can be made in option 7 and 9 of Service Settings.
ADVICE! First operation and initial settings of CB32G control panel should be made on any
workshop place prior to its firm installation. Final place of the panel installation should be care-
fully selected to allow its central positioning with regard to installed wireless detectors and to
allow optimal GSM network reception. Wireless detector’s operating range can be checked in
section 3.5 while GSM network reception in section Status of the Service Settings menu.
KEYPAD USE AND ARMING METHODS
Daily handling of the alarm system with the CB32G control panel involves arming and disarm-
ing of the system and checking possibly indicated alarm states. The control panel is operated
with the use of keypad buttons described below:
1,3,5,7,8,9,0 - - numeric only buttons,
2▲,◄4, 6►, 8▼ - - numeric and menu selection cursor buttons,
C - - cancel and menu exit button,
OK - - selection acceptance & confirmation button.
Current status of the system –date/time, arming mode of the control panel are displayed on
the LCD while failure, alarm and arming information are indicated by two LEDs:

- 4 -
"ALARM” –lights on (red) at alarm detection and flashes indicating system failure. Alarm sig-
nalling is cancelled after entering the main menu or re-arming the system. Fail-
ure signalling is cancelled after eliminating its cause.
“ARMED” –lights on (green) when the system is armed, flashes when exit delay time is
counted down.
The causes of alarms or system failures can be viewed upon entering main menu by holding
down OK button and next selecting Alarm Memory or Failure Check submenu.
ARMING & DISARMING OF ALARM SYSTEM.
Arming and disarming of alarm system with CB32G panel may be done from the control panel
keypad, by remote control transmitter (later referred to as a “remote”), by mobile phone SMS
or CLIP. Disarming alarm stops alarming and silences alarm sirens.
1. Arming & disarming alarm from CB32G panel keypad.
There are two possible methods of arming and disarming using the keypad depending on the
system ”day/night” operation mode selection, see Service Settings (S.S. for short) pt. 8.6:
1. Day/night mode is not selected “N” - see 8.6. By entering user’s password followed by OK
the system will arm if in disarmed state or disarm if in armed state.
2. Day/night mode is selected “Y” – see 8.6. By entering user’s password followed by OK the
system allows a choice of one of four supervision modes selected with “1”,”2”,”3”,“4” keypad
buttons, as described further:
“1 - disarm” - disarming the alarm –“disarmed” status appears on display. “active 24h” an-
ti-tamper zones remain armed.
“2 - arm” - arming the alarm. On end of the exit delay (signalled acoustically and optical-
ly with displayed time countdown on the LCD panel), all alarm zones, except
for permanently disabled, are armed. “Armed” status appears on display.
“3 - day” - partial arming of the alarm in day supervision mode. The zones earlier de-
fined as “day armed” and the “active 24h” zones are armed (as in 3.1). The
“day mode” message appears on display.
“4 - night” - partial arming the alarm in the night supervision mode. At the end of exit de-
lay (signalled acoustically and optically) all alarm zones are armed (*), except
for earlier defined as „night disabled” (as in 3.1.). The “night armed” message
appears on display.
2. Operating CB32G control panel using a remote (hand transmitter).
The CB32G panel can operate with Elmes Electronic made remotes in two ways (see pt. 5.7):
2.1 Remote arms and disarms the system.
Control panel may be armed/disarmed with the use of one, two or four button remote. With
the use of one button remote alarm system can be armed and disarmed alternately. With
two buttons remote, the second button may also arm the system in night mode. Four but-
tons remote features buttons for all optional modes of system arming (see pt. 5.7).
No matter which remote model, the use of standard system arming button triggers loud
sound signal (*) and the countdown of exit delay time starts. The system arms on the de-
lay passage. The use of system disarm button triggers two loud sound signals (*) and the
system disarms. If, while in the armed state, intruder alarm occurred then five loud sound
signals will be produced (*).
Arming system in night mode is similar to standard arming (exit delay is also used) with
the difference that sound signals on built-in siren are quieter and are not produced on
OUT1 nor WSS, while day arming is different, it is instant and no exit delay is used.

- 5 -
2.2 Remote activates entry zone delay only.
In this mode pressed remote button activates entry delay function in zone type “remote
delayed” for predefined delay time, signalled by two loud beeps (*). Now, system should
be disarmed by entering valid password from the keypad. Violation of “remote delayed”
zone while in entry delay countdown without system disarming will set up intruder alarm
after passage of the delay.
(*) Loud signal beeps can also be obtained on an external siren wired to OUT1 (see 9.4), then
beeps from internal siren are at low volume. Loud beeps are also available on wireless Elmes
Electronic WSS siren (see S.S. 9.5).
3. Arming & disarming using a mobile phone.
The GSM32G control panel may be remotely armed and disarmed by SMS command or CLIP
call from any entitled mobile phone number listed in the panel memory.
4. Arming the system bypassing selected alarm zones.
If, in the course of arming the system from control panel keypad, remote or mobile phone
SMS or CLIP, one of the zones detects intrusion, the response of the system depends on
whether the zone was earlier defined as “bypass” type (see item 3.1.g) and will be as follows:
-if the zone is defined as “bypass” type (Y) –the system generates 3 beeps and, if arm-
ing using keypad or remote transmitter only, prompts whether to arm the system without
arming the intruded zone. Acceptance with the use panel OK button or remote button
arms the system bypassing that zone. The use of any other button or no response (>8s)
cancels arming procedure. Arming using mobile phone will arm the system and in return
SMS will be received informing of the bypassed zone.
-if the zone is not defined as “bypass” type (N) –the control panel produces 3 beeps and
displays message “Violated zones” with zone name and system will not arm. In that
case, the cause of the zone violation should be cleared off and a new arming should be
made. While arming by mobile phone, the system will respond by sending SMS with in-
formation on violated zones.

CB32G SELECTED FUNCTIONS DESCRIPTION
Wireless detector state monitor
Elmes Electronic CB32G control panel allows testing the operation of all wireless detectors in-
stalled in alarm zones by simultaneous display of their on/off status. To activate/deactivate
this function button “1” on the keypad must be pressed and hold down until two 16 points lines
scale appear/disappear on the LCD panel. The displayed points represent all 32 wireless de-
tectors that can operate with the CB32G control panel. Any detector activated in the system
produces “*” mark to be momentarily displayed on the LCD at point position corresponding to
alarm zone number to which the detector was learned. Tamper switch activation in the detec-
tor produces mark “S” to be displayed in the corresponding zone point on the scale.
Sabotage protection of external devices
Connecting TAMPER switches of external devices (e.g. outdoor siren) as shown on the dia-
gram of Fig.2 enables anti-sabotage protection of these devices. Cutting off or shorting of the
tamper wire generates sabotage alarm in zone 32 of the control panel. If the TAMP terminal is
not used, it must be shorted to the GND terminal with 1kOhm resistor (supplied). The TAMP
input terminal may be used to connect any parametric wired alarm detector to the CB32G con-
trol panel.
Operation with wired alarm detectors
Two parametric zones of the CB32G control panel allow connection of any wired alarm detec-
tors with NC (normally closed) output terminals. Input EXT of the panel connects wired detec-

- 6 -
tor to alarm zone 31 while input TAMP may be used to connect wired detector to alarm zone
32. Detectors’outputs wiring should be parametric configured using resistors (supplied) with
one end wired to the GND terminal, as shown on fig. 1 of the manual. Wired detectors are
recognized by the panel the same way as wireless detectors. Alarms are detected in the zone
type selected by installer while sabotage protection is supervised as 24h type zone, perma-
nently armed. Parametric resistors should be terminal connected inside wired detector’s hous-
ing. Wired detectors must be powered by external AC/DC power pack. To ensure detector’s
proper operation at AC power failure, power pack with integral battery backup should used
(buffered power pack).
IMPORTANT: Zones 31 and 32 of CB32G panel are factory set “disabled”. When wired detec-
tors are installed, the zones should be enabled –see S.S. 3.4.
Operation with remote control transmitter (remote)
The use of Elmes made remote to operate with Elmes CB32G control panel allows remote
arming/disarming of alarm system as well as enables entry delay time for disarming from pan-
el’s keypad. Also, panic alarm may be triggered using a remote. Detailed description of re-
mote functions can be found in pt. 2 of Arming & Disarming of Alarm System section. Learning
a remote to CB32G panel is made according to S.S. 5.3. Additionally, in “System users...”
menu pt. 5.7, a selection must be made as to whether the remote arms/disarms the system or
sets on entry delay only. Also, in 8.7 –a selection whether panic alarm is required or not, and
in 9.4 and 9.5 define how the control panel should signal the use of a remote.
Operation with external wireless siren
The Elmes CB32G wireless panel can operate with dedicated external wireless sound and
strobe siren Elmes WSS that features integral transceiver module allowing periodical siren
presence test. The siren is powered by external mains power pack (delivered with the siren)
that recharges internal, not serviceable, sealed battery being siren’s main source of power
supply. The following steps are required to set Elmes WSS wireless siren operates with the
CB32G control panel:
1. Learn the siren to alarm zone line 29 of the CB32G panel by selecting detector learning
mode (see 3.3) and activating the siren to transmit alarm signals in one of the three ways,
as below:
a. Connecting siren’s battery while mains power supply is off.
b. Connecting or disconnecting mains power while battery is connected.
c. Activating siren’s housing top cover sabotage switch.
2. Set required alarming time at OUT1 of the panel that equals to alarming time of the wire-
less siren (4.3).
3. Set required interval (1 to 99 minutes –20 minutes as standard) between which wireless
siren presence is checked (described in S.S. 6.4) and enable radio link testing (pt. 8.2).
4. Choose the way alarm system signals that radio link between wireless siren and the control
panel is in fault. If the system is expected to set on loud alarm along with failure indication,
the function in pt. 8.10 should be set to ON. If only failure indication is required then the
function should be OFF.
5. If control panel is armed/disarmed by a remote, its use may be sound signalled by exter-
nal siren, if the option is on (see pt. 9.4 and 9.5).
NOTICE! To avoid loud TAMPER alarm during maintenance service or installation when si-
ren’s housing is to be opened, temporarily disable alarm zone line 29.
GSM module features
The following features are available when using CB32G panel : remote arming and disarming
of alarm system by SMS or CLIP call, requesting system status notification, remote disabling

- 7 -
of alarm zones, SMS notifications to up to 8 mobile phones on alarms, arming/disarming, AC
supply failure and return as well as system failures. Notifications include information of the
source of the event. In case of intruder alarm and sabotage alarm, control panel makes also a
CLIP call to registered phone numbers. It may also operate with any GSM mobile monitoring
system by responding to its test signals and sending cyclic SMS notes or making CLIP calls.
Starting from firmware ver.1.30 control panel outputs may be controlled by SMS.
CB32G panel configuration and firmware upgrade using PC
The CB32G control panel can be easily configured and firmware upgraded with the use of
Windows® based PC (Personal Computer). To connect the panel to PC a dedicated USB-RS
interface cable is needed (ordered separately). Also, installation of virtual COM port drivers at
the PC are necessary. The drivers as well as dedicated “CB32 Configurator” configuration
software are free for download from the panel manufacturer web site: www.elmes.pl .
Before any data is send to or received from the CB32G panel, the following installation steps
should be followed:
1. Select serial COM port that appears new in “CB32 Configurator” options after connecting
the USB-RS interface cable to PC.
2. By holding down button “2” of the panel’s keypad at power on, force the panel to set up
communication mode with PC. Displayed flashing “?” sign on panel’s LCD confirms the mode
has been entered.
MAIN MENU
To access the main menu of the CB32G panel press and hold down OK button for more than
two seconds. Navigate the menu using vertical and horizontal cursor keys. If the keypad is not
used for more than 90 seconds the menu exits and display of the current status of the control
panel on the LCD panel returns. Main Menu consists of four submenus:
Alarms Memory
In this menu details of the latest alarms are displayed: date, time and zone of the alarm(s)
source. The use of ▲▼ keys selects earlier or later events respectively, while the use of ◄►
buttons selects between alarm type and alarm source, e.g. “Intruder alarm” ↔ “kitchen”.
Failures
This menu is designed to view the causes of the failures signalled on the control panel by
flashing “ALARM” LED. Failures signalled on the control panel include:
▪Mains power supply failure.
▪Rechargeable battery absence or failure.
▪Communication errors with wireless detectors or siren.
▪Detector’s low battery.
▪Communication error with GSM module.
▲▼keys are used to scroll through failures.
The “ALARM” LED stops flashing when the cause of failure is cleared.
System Status
In this menu there are two submenus are available:
1. Displays level of received GSM signal by built-in module in graphic mode. Minimum of four
bar level is required for proper functioning. Lower lever requires change of panel placement.
2. Control panel firmware version is displayed.
Service Settings (S.S.)
Access to Service Settings menu is enabled only if the control panel is disarmed and upon en-
tering a valid password code confirmed by OK button. Factory setting of the password for the
user No.1 is „0000”. Exit from the menu and cancelling entries are made by the C button. Us-

- 8 -
ers Nos. 1-4 (administrators) have access to all functions whereas other users may access
functions 1-2 only. All editable service settings available in this menu are described further.
1. Event Memory
Service settings → Events memory
This menu allows viewing detailed information on last 256 events that occurred in the system
(alarms, failures, arming, disarming, errors, etc.). Event memory cannot be edited, and allows
only viewing the event details in the sequence of their occurring date and time. Buttons ▲▼
select an earlier or later event while ◄► buttons select between type of event and its source,
e.g. “Arming” ↔ “John”.
2. Password Change
Service settings → Password change
This menu allows changing user’s own password. Password of other users can be changed in
the “Users” menu (see pt. 5). After accessing this menu “Enter password” prompt appears.
Enter new password containing 3 to 6 digits, and then press OK. When the “Repeat pass-
word” prompt appears, enter the new password again and press OK. The new password re-
places old one. In case of entering an existing or incorrect password “Wrong password” mes-
sage appears.
3. Alarm Zones
This menu contains several submenus. Entering any submenu with ▲▼ buttons selects
zones while ◄► buttons select between zone number or zone name, e.g. “Zone no 1” ↔
“Kitchen”.
3.1. Assigning functions to alarm zones.
Service Settings → Alarm zones → Zone function
In this menu Elmes CB32G control panel allows assigning functions to alarm zones. Buttons
▲▼ select one of the functions described below while ◄► buttons allow setting the function
ON (Y) or OFF (N). The use of OK button accepts the selection while the use of C button can-
cels changes and exits the menu without saving changes.
a) “24h” - 24 hour zone, e.g. anti-sabotage zone (permanently armed),
b) “day armed” - zone armed in day supervision mode selection,
c) “night disabled” - zone disabled in night supervision mode,
d) “remote delayed” - zone with entry delay set on by remote control transmitter,
e) “delayed” - standard entry zone with delayed alarming,
f) “chime” - zone with door chime beep feature on zone violation,
g) “bypass” - zone that can be left disarmed if violated on system arming.
h) “silent alarm” - zone violation sets on silent panic alarm (no siren sounds) and
panel’s outputs type “silent alarm” will set on. If the zone is re-
quired to be armed all the time, function “24h” must be on as well.
A standard zone has functions a)..c) set off in armed state mode, when the system is “armed”
or in “night armed” mode and disarmed when the system is “disarmed” or in “day armed"
mode. IMPORTANT: Zones can have assigned more than one function, but some functions
exclude others. In that case, only one selection is valid, e.g.:
-if zone is “active 24h” then functions such as “day armed”, “night delayed”, “delayed”, and
“bypass” have no meaning;
-if zone is delayed, it should not be disabled by remote.

- 9 -
Examples of assigning functions to alarm zones:
Entry zone can be “remote delayed”, i.e. after using remote button entry delay countdown
is started. Security violation in the zone during the countdown will not generate the alarm
immediately, but after the countdown is finished. That allows user sufficient time for safe
disarming the system.
Entry zone can also be a delayed zone, i.e. when the zone is violated, the entry delay
countdown starts and the system must be disarmed before the countdown is finished. If
system is not disarmed an audible alarming sets on.
The “chime type” zone which often is also a “delayed” or “remote delayed” zone, gener-
ates two beeps sound signal on every violation of the zone (e.g. notifying customer en-
trance to a store).
A basement zone can be “day armed” but it cannot be “active 24h” simultaneously.
A „bypass” zone type allows arming the alarm while intentionally leaving a window
opened protected by CTX detector (see “System Arming”).
3.2. Zone name.
Service settings →Alarm zones → Zone name
This menu allows alarm zones used in the system to have user defined up to 16-character
name, e.g.: kitchen, living room, office, Mark’s Room, etc. Uppercase and lowercase letters,
digits and the following characters are accepted: space, “-,./”.
Buttons ◄► select the successive letters of the name while the ▲▼ buttons browse charac-
ter table. Accept name with OK button. Use C button to exit the menu.
3.3. Learning wireless detectors to control panel.
Service settings → Alarm zones → Learning detectors
In this menu use the ▲▼ buttons to select zone number, and the ◄► buttons to toggle be-
tween displaying the zone number and zone name, e.g.: zone 1 ↔ kitchen. OK button accepts
all selections. If detector is already learned to selected zone, “OK-remove” prompt appears.
Pressing OK button deletes detector in the zone. If zone is vacant, the “OK-learn” will appear
on the LCD. Pressing OK button starts learning detector to the zone. In response to the
“Awaiting trans. 1” and “Awaiting trans. 2” prompts, two successive alarm transmissions must
be triggered from detector (*).Correct learning will be followed by “OK-correct” message. Er-
rors are signalled by 3 beeps and “Program error” message. The use of C button exits the
menu.
(*) For detailed information on how to learn any Elmes detector to Elmes CB32G control pan-
el please refer to instruction manual of the detector.
3.4. Zone disabling.
Service settings → Alarm zones → Zone disabling
Buttons ◄► disable and enable zone selected with ▲▼ buttons. Accept selection with OK
button. Exit the menu with C button.
3.5. Radio range test.
Service settings → Alarm zones → RF range test
To assess the level of radio reception of signals received from detectors, the most distant de-
tectors in particular, the CB32G panel is provided with “RF range test” function allowing the
received signal level to be displayed on 16-point bar graph scale of LCD.
After entering this menu all RF signals in the 433.92MHz radio band will be displayed in form
of bar graph. The detectors should be triggered to send alarm transmissions. The longer the
distance of the detector from the control panel, or the greater difficulty in radio waves propa-
gation, the lower the level of received signals and the length of the displayed bar graph. If the
number of displayed fields is lower than three it should be assumed that this connection does
not guarantee reliable alarming. The location of detectors or the control panel should be

- 10 -
changed in search for better connection quality. The “RF range test” function allows also as-
sessing levels of all local RF signals in the 433.92MHz band, also those that can interfere and
disturb operation of the wireless alarm system. The test should be carried out prior to perma-
nent installation of alarm devices or, in search for causes of short operation range. To find out
any interfering signals, the LCD bar graph 16-point scale readouts should be observed without
activation of own detectors. Frequent or continuous unknown RF signals received and sig-
nalled on the control panel display indicate close presence of other RF devices operating in
the same RF band. If level of these signals exceeds three fields displayed in the “RF range
test” function and their occurrence is frequent, acceptable signals from detectors may not be
received and the alarm system may fail to operate properly.
4. Outputs settings
This menu contains some submenus. Entering any of them select output number with ▲▼
buttons while OK button opens the submenu:
4.1. Output types.
Service Settings → Outputs → Output types
This menu allows allocation of wired outputs of the control panel. All three outputs of the panel
are OC type and connect to ground in active state. Output OUT1 is designed exclusively for
connecting external signalling device and can be sabotage protected (see S.S. pt. 8.3). In ad-
dition, this output can be configured to beep signal the use of a remote. The use of wired out-
puts OUT 2-3 could have the following allocation:
“alarming”- for connection of outdoor/external alarm signalling devices, e.g. ex-
ternal siren or/and strobe. Alarming time can be set within 1to 999 sec-
onds range separately for each output (see 4.3);
“AC power failure” - signalling AC power supply failure/cut off;
“arming” - signalling on system armed or night armed and inactive on system
disarmed or in day armed mode;
“failure” - signalling any failure state in system (also AC power failure);
“SMS controlled” - output controlled by SMS. Examples of SMS controlling panel output
named OUT2 are shown below:
„OUT2 T” - permanently sets output on;
„OUT2 N” - sets output off;
„OUT2” - sets output on for time specified in pt. 4.3;
„OUT2 15” - sets output on for 15 seconds;
„OUT2 10:30” - sets output on for 10 minutes and 30 seconds;
„OUT2 1:00:00” - sets output for 1 hour.

DESIGNING WIRELESS ALARM SYSTEM
Designing and installation of alarm system with the Elmes Electronic CB32G control panel
should start with careful planning of detectors, control panel and outdoor siren placement. To
ensure satisfactory protection of secured premises a variety of detectors may be needed.
Elmes Electronic PTX wireless motion detector and CTX wireless magnet contact detectors
should be installed in each protected room with window. Additionally, GBX wireless glass
break detector could be installed for protection of windows breakage in premises and shops.
Depending on needs, one or two wired detectors can be connected to the panel. The panel
will also operate with RP501 four channel transmitter offering one to four wired detection in-
puts to be monitored remotely. Learning the RP501 transmitter to the CB32G control panel by
activation of input no 4 will learn all four transmitter’s inputs to four adjacent alarm zones of
the panel. Activating input four of the RP501 while learning the transmitter to zone 20 of the
panel will assign four RP501 inputs to alarm zones no 17, 18, 19 and 20. When installing de-
tectors and RP501 transmitter respective instruction manuals must be followed.
It is highly recommended that before permanent installation of detectors or control panel op-
erating range tests should be taken to confirm reliable communication of the devices with the
CB32G panel. The RF range test allows evaluation of operation range of wireless devices.
This function available in Service Settings menu (3.5) and may also be helpful in detecting
any interfering radio signals. If signals received by the control panel are weak, there may be a
need to relocate installation places of some detectors or the control panel. In the extreme
cases, it is recommended that Elmes Electronic TRX signal repeater to be used to ensure
proper performance of the alarm system.
Installation place of detectors is determined individually. Access to the control panel should
meet specific needs of protected premises but it is not recommended to place the panel next
to the door or in place easily accessible. Best suggested way of disarming the alarm system is
to activate entry delay from outside of the premises with the use of a remote. It allows safe
opening the entrance door, access control panel keypad to disarm the system with password.
The entry delay programmed by an installer or user should allow convenient access to the
control panel keypad.
The CB32G control panel may also be installed in place such as bedroom or study room, al-
lowing complete elimination of the entry/exit delay time. In that case, arming and disarming of
the alarm system from the outside of premises can be made with the use of a remote or mo-
bile phone. Arming and disarming will be audibly signalled by siren or visually by lamp con-
nected to an output configured to arming and disarming signalling.

- 19 -
The panel features also the option of arming alarm system in the night mode with selected
rooms excluded from supervision (e.g. bedrooms, upper floor), as well as the day mode in
which only the selected rooms (e.g. cellar, basement, garage) are supervised. Arming entire
alarm system, or in night/day modes is done with the use of the CB32G panel keypad. Arm-
ing entire system or arming in the night mode only is also possible with the use of remote. All
options and functions of alarm system designed with CB32G control panel are user selected
and set in the Service Settings menu of the panel.
POWERING CB32G CONTROL PANEL
To ensure proper operation the CB32G control panel requires external AC/DC power supply
with 10...20VDC and 1200mA minimum current output.
Initial powering of the panel starts with inserting two 3,7V Li-ION rechargeable batteries
(14500 type, AA size) observing indicated polarity and screwing in DC output wires of the
AC/DC power pack to +/- terminals of the panel. Plugging the pack to AC outlet backlights the
LCD panel and displays software version followed by initial date (day_month), time (hour: mi-
nute: seconds:).
IMPORTANT! Use AA size (14500 type) 3,7V LI-ION rechargeable batteries only with rec-
ommended capacity of minimum 600 mAh. The use of other than Li-ION batteries is not per-
mitted. Correct battery polarity must be observed when inserting Li-ION batteries. Incorrect
battery placement will cause panel damage and repair service will be required. The use of
batteries with lower capacity than recommended could not guarantee 24 hours of autonomy
operation on AC power failure.
CAUTION! Batteries contain dangerous and poisonous substances. Do not dispose of waste
batteries with household waste. Dispose waste batteries according to your local recommenda-
tions or, ask for disposal instructions your battery supplier.
When operating CB32G connected to wired alarm system with power supply backup does not
require Li-ION battery installation and the control panel may be powered by the wired alarm
13,6 VDC auxiliary supply line voltage dedicated to power detectors, sirens, etc.
The CB32G control panel can also be operated without internal Li-ION batteries installed.
However, in order to assure its proper operation under AC power failure condition a buffered
power supply (ups) should be used. The use of buffered power supply with integral back up
battery is best recommended power supply solution.
NOTICE! Manufacturer supplies control panel with zone 31 EXT and zone 32 TAMP disabled
and anti-sabotage control of output OUT1 set off allowing connection of external siren and
power supply to the CB32G panel without activating sabotage alarm. After completing system
connections, inserting the batteries and closing panel case, the anti-sabotage protection
should be enabled.
ALARM SYSTEM WITH ELMES CB32G CONTROL PANEL
Designed alarm system may be less or more complex depending on individual needs. Sim-
plest alarm may consist of only few detectors and the control panel with internal siren for au-
dible signalling, while complex alarm system would have a range of detectors in addition to in-
ternal and external signalling devices.
The diagram presented further shows an example of a complex alarm system with the use of
Elmes Electronic PTX50 wireless motion detectors, CTX3H and CTX4H magnet contact (with
open & close signalling function) detectors, GBX glass break detector, UBM100H remote con-
trol for activating entry delay and panic alarm, wired external siren and CB32G control panel.
The system should be power supplied from a dedicated buffered power pack (if external,
wired siren is installed) with integral battery backup. If only wireless devices are used in the
system, it is sufficient to use control power with AC/DC pack and Li-ION rechargeable batter-

- 20 -
ies. Other advisory examples of alarm configurations with CB32G wireless control panel are
shown on Fig.1 and Fig.2.
Wiring of external equipment such as sirens and AC/DC power supply line to the CB32G con-
trol panel terminals, should be made through large installation whole and a cable groove in
the bottom part of its cabinet. Suggested installation of the control panel is in vertical position,
e.g. on the wall at the height of approx. 1.20 to 1.40m, allowing convenient entering keypad
commands. The configuration procedure for an exemplary alarm system described further as-
sumes that the user will use a remote control to activate the entry delay. It is recommended to
make basic settings, learn detectors and carry out the first tests on workshop table before
permanent installation in the premises. Following, are some essential basic steps to be taken
at first wireless alarm system configuration setting:
Unpack the CB32G control panel, insert Li-ION batteries (if needed) carefully observing polari-
ty (+/-) marked inside the panel cabinet and connect AC/DC power supply pack. After the con-
