CAUTION! This control panel has been designed to be as effective as possible. However,
there are circumstances that alarm system may fail to operate as expected for variety of
reasons. Users and installers are warned that radio signals from wireless detectors and
sensors may not reach the CBP32 panel under all circumstances. Metal objects placed on
radio transmission paths, deliberate jamming or other radio signal interference can seri-
ously reduce operating range.

OPERATING CBP32 CONTROL PANEL
Operating alarm system with CBP32 control panel mean system arming and disarming with
periodical check up of its functioning state. Arming and disarming is made by remotes or
phones registered in the system. The use of GSM phone allows notification of failures and
state of the system, remote blocking of alarm zones and controlling outputs of the panel, in
addition to arming and disarming of the system. State of the system, i.e. its armed mode, dis-
armed or failed to operate properly is SMS notified on SMS request send by the user.
System failure is notified by SMS to the user, beeps by the build in beeper and flashing of the
Failure LED on the panel board. Checking the cause of the failure may be done by SMS or,
on the panel board by long pressing OK button.
Browsing the control panel menu is made by using the following buttons:
▲◄ ►▼ - menu navigation cursors,
OK - menu entry and setting acceptance,
C - CANCEL button for cancelling setting and exit.
Alarm system arming and disarming
Arming and disarming may be made by the use of hand held transmitter (called later “remote”)
or GSM phone registered in the system. It is also possible to it with the use of buttons on
the control panel board. In the case of GSM phone, arming and disarming is made by
sending an appropriate text message (SMS) or call (CLIP) to the phone number of the
panel. Every disarming of the system results in immediate stop of alarming (setting OFF
alarm sirens).
1. Arming and disarming the system using a remote
The CBP32 panel can operate with Elmes Electronic made remotes in two ways (see pt. 5.7):
1.1 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 one
signal pulse on one or more outputs: S1, S2, O1 or built-in siren (see pt. 9 on page 16)
and the countdown of exit delay time starts. The system arms on the delay 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 pro-
duced.
Arming system in night mode is similar to standard arming (exit delay is also used) with
the difference that signal pulse will appear on one of outputs S2, O1 or on buzzer. Arming
in day mode is different, it is instant and no exit delay is used.
1.2 Remote activates entry zone delay only.
In this mode pressed remote button activates entry delay in zone type “remote delayed”
for predefined delay time, signalled by two loud beeps. Now, system should be disarmed
using wireless keypad KB1. Violation of “remote delayed” zone while in entry delay count-
down without system disarming will set up intruder alarm after passage of the delay.
2. Arming & disarming using a GSM phone
The GSP32 control panel may be remotely armed and disarmed by SMS command or CLIP
call from any registered phone number listed in the panel memory. Phone numbers for the
panel control and monitoring are registered for system users in Service Settings pt. 5.5.

3. Emergency arming & disarming alarm from CBP32 panel buttons
This operating method is not recommended as requires opening the control panel cabinet.
Nevertheless, in case of emergency, e.g. no access to system registered phone or lost re-
mote, there are two possible methods of system arming/disarming using the panel buttons:
1. If “day/night” mode is set OFF (see pt. 8.5 menu) - by entering user’s password (by default:
▲▲▲▲) followed by OK will arm the system or, disarm the system if it was armed. Exit delay
time counts down starts prior to system is armed.
2. If “day/night” mode is set ON (see pt. 8.5 menu) - by entering user’s password followed by
OK will allow selection of one of four methods of system arming:
“▲- disarm” - disarming the alarm system –“disarmed” status appears on dis-
play. Anti-sabotage zones “24h” remain armed.
“◄- arm” - arming the system. On the end of the exit delay (signalled acoustically and
optically with displayed time countdown on the LCD panel), all alarm zones ex-
cept blocked are armed. “Armed” status appears on display.
“►- day” - partial arming in day supervision mode. The zones earlier defined as “day
armed” and the “24h” zones are armed (as in pt. 3.1). The “day mode” message
appears on display.
“▼- night” - partial arming in night supervision mode. At the end of exit delay (signalled
acoustically and optically) all alarm zones are armed, except for blocked zones
and zones earlier defined as „night disabled” (as in pt. 3.1.). The “night armed”
message appears on display.
Arming the system bypassing selected alarm zones.
If, in the course of arming the system, one of the zones is violated, the reaction of the system
depends on whether the zone was earlier defined as “bypass” type (see pt. 3.1.g) or not:
-if the zone function is defined as “bypass” (Y) –the system generates 3 beeps on arm-
ing using remote or panel buttons and waits 8 seconds for user’s decision whether to
arm the system bypassing violated zone. Acceptance with the use of remote or panel
OK button arms the system bypassing that zone. If no action is detected (>8s) arming
procedure is cancelled. Arming with the use of mobile phone will arm the system and
SMS notification will be send informing of the bypassed zone.
-if the zone is not defined as “bypass” type (N) – the system generates 3 beeps on arm-
ing using remote and will not arm. When arming using panel buttons displays message
“Violated zones” with zone name and system will not arm. In that case, the cause of the
zone violation should be cleared and a new arming should be made. While arming by
mobile phone, the system will respond by sending SMS with information on violated
zones.
See also S.S. pt. 9 –“System arming signalling modes”
CBP32 SELECTED FUNCTIONS DESCRIPTION
Alarm zones monitor
CBP32 control panel allows checking operation of all detectors by displaying all alarm zones
simultaneously. To activate this function button “◄” must be pressed and hold down until two
16 bar graph lines scale appear on the LCD panel displaying status of all 32 alarm zones of
the CBP32 control panel. Any violated zone produces “*” mark (star) to be momentarily dis-
played on the LCD at dot position corresponding to zone number in which violation was de-
tected. Sabotage activation displays mark “S”. Function deactivation is made by “◄” button.

Emergency power backup
The control panel is designed to operate with typical 12V sealed lead rechargeable battery
used for alarm system application. The battery charging current is user set by jumper “ISET”
on the panel board. For 1.2Ah battery capacity the jumper should be set to 130mA current
and for typical batteries of higher capacity, e.g. 5Ah, 7Ah or 17Ah, the jumper must be set to
450mA charging current. In order to protect battery against destructive discharge, the panel
disconnects the battery automatically, if battery voltage drops below 10,2V level.
In addition, the control panel performs regular battery tests. Detected battery failure, or battery
absence are notified to the user/alarm system operator.
Anti-sabotage protection of the panel cabinet
In order to enable anti-sabotage protection of the control panel cabinet TAMPER switch of the
cabinet should be connected in series with 1kOhm resistor to any of six wired detector input
zones of the panel (see example on diagram 5), then unblock the zone using buttons on the
panel board and close cabinet cover. Since now, any opening of the cabinet cover will gener-
ate sabotage alarm. If the panel cabinet cover/door must be opened for any reason, the only
way to do it without generating sabotage alarm, is to block the sabotage zone by sending ap-
propriate SMS command (pt. 5.6.9).
Operation with wired alarm detectors
CBP32 provides six input zones Z1÷Z6 for connecting wired alarm detectors with NC (normal-
ly closed) outputs. The wired inputs are shared with panel’s wireless inputs 1÷6 and may be
operated together (see pt. 3.3). The wired detectors are connected to the panel according to
diagram 2 (resistors 1k and 3k3 Ohm are supplied with the panel).
NOTICE! Zones Z1÷Z6 are blocked by default.
Operation with remote control transmitter (remote)
The use of Elmes made remotes with Elmes CBP32 control panel allows remote arm-
ing/disarming of alarm system as well as enables personal panic alarm. Detailed description
of using a remote with the panel may be find in pt. 1 of Operating CBP32 Control Panel chap-
ter. Programming (learning) a remote to a user of the control panel is described in pt. 5.3 of
menu “Users”. Activation of the panic alarm is made in pt. 8.6, while pt. 9.4 and pt. 9.5 of the
service settings are used for setting how the control panel will signal the use of a remote.
Operation with external wireless siren
The Elmes CBP32 wireless panel can operate with dedicated external wireless sound and
strobe siren Elmes WSS with periodical siren presence check test. The siren is powered by
external mains power pack (delivered with the siren) that recharges internal sealed battery be-
ing siren’s main source of power supply. The following steps are required to set Elmes WSS
wireless siren to operate with the CBP32 control panel:
1. Learn the siren to alarm zone line 29 of the CBP32 panel by selecting detector learning
mode (see 3.3) and activating the siren to transmit RF 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 S1 of the panel that equals to alarming time of the wireless
siren (pt. 4.3).
3. Set in pt. 6.4 required time interval (1 to 99 minutes –20 minutes as standard) for wireless
siren presence checking frequency and enable radio link testing (pt. 8.2).

- 6 -
4. Choose the way alarm system signals failure of radio link between wireless siren and the
control panel. If the system is expected to set on loud alarm along with failure indication,
the function in pt. 8.8 should be set ON. If only failure indication is required then the func-
tion should be OFF.
5. If control panel is armed/disarmed by a remote, its use may be signalled by signal pulses
on external siren (pt. 9.4 and 9.5).
NOTICE! To avoid loud sabotage alarm during external siren’s installation or maintenance
temporarily disable (block) alarm zone 29.
Internal GSM module functions
The following functions are available when using CBP32 panel with active SIM card: remote
arming and disarming of alarm system by SMS or CLIP call; requesting system status notifica-
tion; remote disabling (blocking) of alarm zones, SMS notifications send to up to 8 mobile
phones on alarms, arming/disarming, AC supply failure and return as well as system failures.
The notifications include information of the source of the event. In case of alarm and the con-
trol 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 or
making CLIP calls.
Control panel outputs may be toggled on/off by SMS command and may control variety of de-
vices such as switching on/off lighting, heating, etc. The devices should be controlled via ex-
ternal power relay as shown in diagram 3.
CBP32 panel configuration and firmware update using PC
The CBP32 control panel can be easily configured and firmware updated with the use of Win-
dows® based PC (Personal Computer). To connect the panel to personal computer a USB in-
terface cable with one mini USB plug is needed (ordered separately). Proper cable installation
is red LED signalled on the panel board. For data transmission installation of virtual series
COM port drivers at the PC are necessary. In recent Windows® versions the drivers load au-
tomatically. The COM port drivers as well as dedicated “CB32 Configurator” software for PC
are free for download from the CBP32 panel manufacturer web site: www.elmes.pl .
Before any data is sent to or received from the CBP32 panel, the following steps should be
followed:
1. In the options of “CB32 Configurator” new serial COM port must be selected that appears
on the list of COM ports, after connecting the USB cable to PC.
2. By holding down button ▲ at power on, the panel is forced to set up communication mode
with PC. Flashing “?” sign on the panel’s LCD confirms the mode has been entered.

with C button or, automatically, if no user activity is detected for more than 90 seconds. Main
menu consists of four submenus:
Alarm Memory
In this menu details of the latest alarms are displayed: date, time and zone of the alarm(s)
source. The use of ▲▼ buttons 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 yellow “ALARM” LED. Failures signalled on the control panel include:

- 7 -
▪Mains power supply failure (no mains).
▪Backup rechargeable battery absence or failure.
▪Failure of communication with wireless detectors.
▪Detector’s low battery (replacement need).
▪GSM module network connection failure.
▲▼buttons are used to scroll through failures, if many.
The “ALARM” LED stops flashing when 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
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 „▲▲▲▲”. Exit from the menu and cancelling entries are made by the C button.
Users 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 → Event 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 signs ▲,◄, ►,▼ and then press OK. When the “Re-
peat password” prompt appears, enter the new password again and press OK. The new
password replaces old one. In case of entering an existing or incorrect password “Wrong
password” message appears.
3. Zone Settings
This menu contains number of submenus. Entering any submenu with ▲▼ buttons selects
zones while ◄► buttons select between zone number or zone name, e.g. “Zone no 1” ↔
“Kitchen”. After selecting a zone confirmed by OK following submenus are accessed:
3.1. Alarm zone function.
Service Settings → Zone Settings → Zone function
This menu of CBP32 control panel allows assigning special functions to alarm zones. Buttons
▲▼ select one of the functions described below while ◄► buttons allow setting the function
ON (Y) or OFF (N). OK button accepts the selection while the use of C button cancels chang-
es 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” - entry zone with delay set on by a remote;
e) “delayed” - standard entry zone with delay;
f) “chime” - door chime feature generates signal pulses at one of selected outputs,

- 8 -
or beeps on panel’s internal buzzer on zone violation (see pt. 9.6).
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 required to be armed
all the time, function “24h” must be on as well.
A standard zone has functions a ÷c set off and supervises when the system is in “armed” or
“night armed” mode and does not supervise when system is “disarmed” or “day armed".
IMPORTANT: Zones can have assigned more than one special function, but some functions
exclude others. In that case, only one selection is valid, e.g.:
-if a zone is “active 24h” then functions such as “day armed”, “night disabled” have no
meaning.
Examples of zones with assigned functions:
“chime”zone generates two beeps sound signal on every violation of the zone (e.g. noti-
fying store personnel of customer entrance).
“remote delayed” zone – when remote’s button is pressed “entry time” countdown is
started and the zone is not active. Its violation will not trigger an instant alarm but only af-
ter “entry time” has passed. It allows the user to disarm alarm system with the use of valid
password input on wireless keypad KB1.
“delayed” zone – its violation (by entering the zone) triggers “entry time” countdown, dur-
ing which the system must be disarmed to prevent from system intruder alarm.
Basement or a garage zone can be “day armed”.
A „bypass” zone allows arming the alarm while intentionally leaving e.g. window opened
protected by CTX detector (see “System Arming”).
3.2. Zone name.
Service settings →Zone Settings → 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. Upper and lowercase letters, digits,
space and characters “-,./” are accepted.
Buttons ◄► select the successive letters position of the name while the ▲▼ buttons browse
character table for selection. Accept name with OK button. Use C button to exit the menu.
3.3. Learning wireless detectors to control panel.
Service settings → Zone Settings → Learning detectors
It is recommended to learn wireless detectors starting from zone 7 (*).
After selecting a zone number “OK-remove” prompt appears on display, if detector is already
learned to the zone. Pressing OK button deletes detector in the zone. If zone is vacant, “OK-
learn” will appear on the LCD. Pressing OK button starts learning detector to the zone. In re-
sponse to the “Awaiting trans. 1” and “Awaiting trans. 2” prompts, two successive alarm
transmissions must be triggered in detector (**).Correct learning will be followed by “OK-
correct” message. Errors are signalled by 3 beeps and “Program error” message. The use of
C button exits the menu.
(*) Zones 1÷ 6 are intended for wired and/or wireless detectors installation and are disabled
(blocked) by default. If wireless detector is to be learned to any of these zones, it must be en-
abled (unblocked) and its wire input shorted to ground (COM) with 1kOhm resistor (supplied).
If a wired detector is to be installed in that zone as well, which is possible, then it may create
ambiguity issue when both detectors signal zone violation simultaneously. Therefore, it is not
recommended to install in these zones detectors with permanent set on output, e.g. door open
magnet detector, but detectors with momentary set on, e.g. PIR movement detector.
(**) IMPORTANT! Wireless detectors cannot be learned to the panel by the use of sabotage
TAMPER switch to activate radio transmission. For detailed information on how to learn any
Elmes detector to CBP32 control panel please refer to instruction manual of the detector.

Description of wired detector installation in zones 1÷ 6 can be found on page 19.
3.4. Zone disabling.
Service settings → Zone Settings → Zone disabling
Zone number is selected with ▲▼ buttons while buttons ◄► disable (block) and enable the
zone. Accept selection with OK button. Exit the menu with C button.
3.5. Radio range test.
Service settings → Zone Settings → RF range test
To assess the level of radio reception of signals received from detectors, the most distant de-
tectors in particular, the CBP32 panel is provided with “RF range test” function allowing the
received signal level to be displayed on 16 bar graph scale of panel’s 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 graphs. If the
number of displayed bars is lower than three it should be assumed it does not guarantee reli-
able alarm operation. The location of detectors or the control panel should be changed in
search for better RF reception or, Elmes Electronic made repeater TRX should be installed to
prolong operating range of wireless detectors.
The “RF range test” function allows also assessing 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 permanent installation of alarm devices or, in
tracing causes of short operation range. To find out any interfering signals, the LCD 16 bar
graph scale readouts should be observed without activation of own detectors. Frequent or
continuous unknown RF signals received and signalled 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 bars 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 oper-
ate properly.
4. Outputs Settings
This menu contains some submenus. Entering any of them select output number with ▲▼
buttons while the use of OK button opens submenu:
4.1. Output types.
Service Settings → Outputs → Output type
This menu allows allocation of wired outputs of the control panel. Outputs S1 and S2 are high
current draw with up to 700 mA rating, short circuit protected and providing 12VDC on output
set on. These outputs may be sabotage protected (see pt. 8.3).
Outputs O1÷O6 are low current draw, OC type with up to 100 mA rating. Overload of these
outputs, such as direct connection to +12V, may cause their damage.
Output S1 is “alarming” type and its function cannot be changed. It is intended for connecting
an external siren. The remaining outputs may have assigned the following functions:
“alarming”
for connection of outdoor/external alarm signalling devices, e.g. external siren
or/and strobe;
“AC power
failure”
signalling 230VAC power supply failure/cut off
“arming”
output active when system armed mode is armed or night armed and inactive
when system is disarmed or in day armed mode;
“failure”
signalling any failure state in system (also 230VAC power failure)
“SMS con-
trolled”
output controlled by SMS. Examples of SMS controlling panel output named
PUMP are shown below:

- 10 -
„PUMP T” - permanently sets output on;
„PUMP N” - sets output off;
„PUMP” - sets output on for time specified in pt. 4.3;
„PUMP 15” - sets output on for 15 seconds;
„PUMP 10:30” - sets output on for 10 minutes and 30 seconds;
„PUMP 1:00:00” - sets output for 1 hour.
Output maximal set on time is 18 hours, 12 minutes and 15 seconds.
„silent
alarm”
output will be set on, if zone type “silent alarm” has been violated (pt. 3.1h), or
silent panic alarm is activated (pt. 8.6).
Example: if output O2 is “arming” type and the output connects LED to detector’s supply out-
put (AUX) in series with 1kOhm resistor then it will stay lighted on for as long as the system is
armed offering additional signalling or warning option.
Outputs S1, S2 and O1 may also pulse signal system arming and disarming, violation of zone
with “chime” function and exit time countdown (see pt. 9).
Output type is defined by accessing the menu, selecting output number with ▲▼ buttons, ac-
cepting with OK, selecting output type with ▲▼ or ◄► buttons, accepting with OK button.
4.2. Output name.
Service Settings → Outputs → Output name
This menu allows every output to have any up to 16-character long name e.g. “OVEN”,
“Lamp”, etc. Upper and lower case letters, digits and “-,./” signs are accepted while “space”
sign is not allowed. Instead of sample name “lamp garden” a name “lamp-garden” should be
used. Output’s names are used only if controlled by SMS.
In the menu ◄► buttons are used selecting character position of the name and ▲▼ buttons
selecting appropriate character. Defined name is accepted with OK and exit menu with C.
4.3. Outputs set on time.
Service Settings → Outputs → Output time
This menu is used to define individual set on time, ranging from 1 to 999 seconds, of outputs
type “alarm”, “silent alarm” and “SMS controlled”. Set on time defined for any other output type

ALARM SYSTEM INSTALLATION
The following accessories are needed before CBP32 control panel can be installed:
-Typical alarm system 12V battery with appropriate capacity (see chapter: power supply
and battery recommendations).
-AC/AC transformer with secondary output 17...18VAC (see chapter: power supply and
battery recommendations).
-Dedicated for alarm system control panel plastic or metal cabinet or, any cabinet suitable
for all components of the control panel and power supply. If the cabinet is made of plastic,
GSM and wireless detector radio antennas can be inside the cabinet. Anti-sabotage cabi-
net switch should be connected to the control panel according to diagram 5.
-Active SIM card, if the panel’s GSM module will be used.
SIM card for use in CBP32 control panel should have SMS memory and address book cleared
with voice mail box set off. Used 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 mo-
bile phone. The use of SIM card with other than 1234 PIN code in the CB32G control
panel may cause the card to be blocked!
Designing and installation of alarm system with the Elmes Electronic CBP32 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 PTX50 wireless motion detector and CTX wireless magnet contact detectors
should be installed in each protected room with window. Additionally, GBX1 wireless glass
break detector could be installed for protection of windows breakage in premises and shops.
Depending on needs, up to six wired detectors of any manufacturer can be connected to par-
ametric inputs of the panel.

- 18 -
Detailed instruction manuals of devices should be observed while installing wireless or wired
detectors to the control panel.
If the control panel is to be installed inside of metal cabinet, detector’s radio antenna as well
as GSM module antenna must be installed outside the cabinet. If the cabinet is made of plas-
tic the antennas can be inside with minimum distance of few centimetres from each other.
Connections of system components to the CBP32 control panel are shown on diagram 1.
After setting up power supply (observe proper sequence) and, if the GSM module is on, the
blue GSM LED should be watched. Fast blinking LED mean the module is logging on to the
network or, the module is out of the network operating range. Slow blinking with 2-3 seconds
intervals mean the module is logged on to the GSM network. Network signal level can be
checked as instructed in pt. 10.1.
Described below steps of configuring alarm system with CBP32 control panel assume the us-
er will use hand transmitter (remote) to arm/disarm the system:
1. Set on current date and time (pt. 6.1).
2. Program a remote to the user (pt. 5.3) and select its functions (pt. 5.6).
3. Set arming signalling mode of the control panel (pt. 9.5).
4. Learn wireless detectors to control panel alarm zones (pt. 3.3) according to proce-
dures described in their manuals.
5. Check operation of wireless detectors. To do so, hold down button ◄ until two 16 bar
lines appear on display representing all alarm zones. With the help of other person
sequentially activate detectors watching for their star “*” signal displayed on the bar
corresponding to alarm zone the detector is programmed to.
6. Check radio signal level of each wireless detector by selecting “Radio range test” (pt.
3.5) submenu in the panel and, with the help of other person, activate detectors while
watching RF signal level displayed on bar scale of LCD. Weak signals (1-2 bars dis-
played) coming from detector require changing the detector’s place of installation so,
as the number of signal level bars displayed are minimum 3-4. In extreme low signal
levels, the use of Elmes Electronic TRX signal repeater may be needed to guarantee
proper signal reception by the control panel.
After the initial steps above, further setting up of the alarm system can be done, as below:
-configure external wireless siren WSS, if installed;
-set on anti-sabotage protection of output S1, if a wired siren is connected (pt. 8.3);
-set on wireless detectors radio link with the panel test (pt. 8.2);
-set on the GSM module (pt. 7.8), input phone numbers of system users and configure
their functions pt. 5.5 and 5.6);
-define users names (pt. 5.2) and learn remotes to other users (pt. 5.3);
-define alarm zone names (pt. 3.2).
Power supply: selection of transformer and battery
For powering of the control panel AC/AC transformer with secondary output of 17VAC should
be used with output power exceeding total system power requirement by at least 20%.
Selecting a backup battery, it should be assumed that the system must be operational for at
least of 12 hours inclusive of alarming time of 15 minutes (0,25h) after AC power cut off. To
perform calculations it should be assumed that:
-control panel current is ca 30mA,
-battery charge current depends on setting of jumper ISET and for battery capacity of 1,2
Ah it is 130mA while 12Ah and higher it is 450mA,
-average current draw at all AUX power outputs should sum up currents of all wired alarm
devices such as wired detectors and sirens.
Calculating required battery capacity for sample alarm system with six wired detectors and si-
ren connected according to diagram 4, assuming 12 hours system autonomy operation and
0,25 hour alarming time, we shall conclude with the following equation:
Q = 700mA * 0,25h + (30mA + 6*15mA) * 12h = 1615mAh = 1,615Ah

- 19 -
As typical alarm 1,2Ah battery capacity is insufficient so, 7Ah battery is needed with ISET
jumper set to 450mAh charging current.
Now, required summarised output current of AC transformer may be calculated:
I = 450mA + 30mA + 6* 15mA = 570mA.
So, with required 20% of surplus power, a transformer of 700mA output will be sufficient.
Sequence of power supply connection
CAUTION! Danger of electric shock. All connections should be made with 230V mains
disconnected.
1. Connect battery to the control power using the black-red wire with connectors. Observe cor-
rect polarity. Red wire connects to battery + and black to battery -.
2. Connect transformer secondary output wires to AC input of the control panel. Lastly, con-
nect fuse protected AC 230V mains supply to the transformer.
Power supply disconnection must be made in reverse sequence.
NOTE! The control panel will not initialize with only battery connection. AC power supply con-
nection will result in start of the operating system.
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.
Wired detectors installation
Installation of any wired detector is made with three wire line (see diagram 2). To supply de-
tector with +12V power, appropriate detector’s power terminal should be connected to any
AUX terminal on the control panel side. Any COM terminal on the panel should be used as
common ground (-12V) while any Z1÷Z6 terminal as alarm and sabotage terminal. Next, in
submenu Disabling zones - pt.3.4, the zone to which detector is connected should be enabled
and in submenu Alarm zone function –pt.3.1, alarm function/s may be assigned to the zone.
Wired detectors are always connected to CBP32 control panel in configuration with 1k and
3k3 Ohm resistors (supplied), as shown on diagram 2. Such connection configuration allows
intruder alarming as well as detection of anti-sabotage box opening, wires cut or short circuit.
Control panel CBP32 operation with RP501 transmitter
The panel may operate with Elmes Electronic RP501 four inputs channel transmitter offering
up to four wired detectors (switches, magnets) to be monitored remotely. RP501 transmitter
can be learned to four adjacent alarm zones in the CBP32 control panel. Activating input four
of the RP501 while learning the transmitter to zone 20 of the panel will assign four RP501 in-
puts to alarm zones no 17, 18, 19 and 20. When installing RP501 transmitter respective in-
struction manual must be followed.
