1.6 Safety instructions
The Hunter-Pro 832/896/8144 alarm systems have been registered in accordance with EN-60950
and its rules. EN-60950 requires us to advise you the following information:
1. Hazards of fire and electric shock exist in this alarm system. To reduce the risk of fire or
electric shock, do not expose this alarm system to rain or moisture. Pay attention:
Telephone cords could be a good conductor for lightings energy.
2. Do not open the door of the alarm system. Dangerous high voltages are present inside
the enclosure. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
3. This alarm system should be used with 230VAC/ 110VAC, 50/60Hz, protected by anti-
electric shock breaker. To prevent electric shocks and fire hazards, do NOT use any
other power source.
4. Do not spill liquid of any kind onto the unit. If liquid is accidentally spilled onto the unit,
immediately consult a qualified service.
5. Install this product in a protected location where no one can trip over any line or power
cord. Protect cords from damage or abrasion.
6. Disconnect all sources of power supply before proceeding with the installation. Pay
attention: do not install low voltage wires near AC wires; they should be separated.
7. Connect the AC transformer output to the terminal block on the control panel properly.
8. Connect the AC line cord to AC terminals properly. (GND; N; L).
9. Connect to Earth-Ground where required.

2.2 Battery jump-start
Starting PCB version 3610100 Rev. E., during AC fault, if the backup Battery’s voltage drops
under 8V, the control panel disconnects it to prevent full battery discharge. This feature
extends the battery life cycle.
Because of this, the control panel cannot be powered up using only the battery, and must be
connected to AC voltage first.
When AC voltage is not available, do the following:
a) Connect the control panel to the Battery.
b) Momentarily connect the Battery’s (-) terminal to the control panel’s (-) terminal.
c) The control panel will now power up.

3.1 Connecting zones
The overall length of the BUS wires cannot exceed 500 meters. If a longer
distance is required, refer to section 3.2.7.
The BUS uses PIMA proprietary protocol.
IMPORTANT! Disconnect all power supply prior to installation!
3.1.1 Common zone wiring
Diagram 3. Zone loop options
The zone type, N.O. or N.C., is set in the “Zone ” screen (see section 6.4.1).
3.1.2 Single EOL resistor loops
To set the zone as an EOL resistor loop, refer to the “Zone ” screen, parameter “E” (see
section 6.4.1).
Make sure parameter “2” in the “Key #5: General Parameters” first screen, is set to “-”(see
section 6.8).
3.1.3 2-EOL resistor loop
1. Set the zone as an EOL loop, refer to the “Zone characteristics” screen, parameter “E”
(see section 6.4.1).
2. To set the EOL loops as 2-resistor loops (globally), refer to the “Key #5: General
Parameters” first screen, parameter “2” (see section 6.8).
3.2 Zone expanders wiring
The following is a brief scan of the zone and outputs expansion options. A detailed installation
description is found further on.

3.2.1 Zone numbering
Hardwire zones come before wireless zones.
Local expanders come before any other expander.
The expanders are numbered in ascending order, according to their ID number.

3.2.3 Setting the expanders’ID
Each card must carry a unique ID. The ID is set by a dip-switch on its PCB. The next figure
demonstrates the ID options.
The IDs must be set successively. I/O-16 takes 2 consecutive IDs, e.g., if the ID is set to 3,
the next available ID is 5 and not 4. See the next example table.
To program the overall number of expansion cards, refer to section 6.4.

3.2.7 The BUS length
The BUS wire harness is connected to the KEYPAD 1-4 terminals on the control panel. The control
panel can support a BUS that is no longer than 500m, including the connection of each and every
expansion card, module and keypad.
If a longer distance than 500m is required every I/O-8N/16/R expander has ‘Buffer’ terminal block
to which the extended braid should be connected. This allows additional 500m BUS to be
connected to each of these expanders. See the next diagrams
