Step 1: Install the WZM and the ZIM
Refer to the EMS Wireless Zone Monitor
Installation Guide (TSD141) and the EMS
Zone Interface Monitor Installation
Guide (TSD142) for full information.
If connecting to a Conventional Fire
Alarm Control Panel, also follow the
Conventional Interface Card Installation
Guide (TSD147).

The Conventional Interface Card (CIC) installation must
conform to applicable local installation codes and
should only be installed by a fully trained competent
person.
The following points require consideration upon installation:
The CIC is only to be fitted to the Zone Interface Module
(ZIM), when connection is required to a Conventional Control
Panel.
The CIC should only be connected to designated zone and
sounder circuits.
Refer to the EMS Wireless Zone Monitor Engineers Guide
(TSD143) for full programming information.

The following points require consideration upon installation:
Do NOT Press the Log On button on a pre-programmed
device, as this will cause communication with the Control
Panel to be lost. Should this happen, delete the device from
the system and add it back on.

Step 3 Mounting Location Guidelines
Ensure the ZIM is not installed
within 2m of the System 5000
Control Panel or any other radio
or electrical equipment.
Ensure the ZIMs aerials are not
installed within 0.6m of any metal
work.
To ensure the optimum
range performance of
the ZIM is achieved,
