Introduction

Use of high power lithium-ion battery cells requires appropriate
protection in accordance with how they are used. Inappropriate
use of the batteries may possibly result in heat generation,
ignition or explosion and may cause death, personal injury,
property damage or other serious loss.
The VISION communicates using wireless (RF) transmissions. Any
wireless transmission can be subject to RF interference and,
although unlikely, this interference may cause the KAS to not
operate as intended.
RF transmissions will be attenuated by tinted glass, in wall
isolation with metal foils, metal objects, etc.
Safety Instructions. Read Carefully
The VISION security system has been registered in accordance with EN60950 and
its rules.
Among other things, EN60950 requires us to advise you the following information:
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.
Warning: this equipment has no mains On/Off switch. The plug of the direct
plug-in power supply is intended to serve as the disconnecting device.
Dangerous high voltages are present inside the control panel’s enclosure. Refer
servicing to qualified personnel only.
This alarm system should be used with 230VAC/110VAC, 50/60Hz, protected
by anti-electric shock breaker. Use only the power supply provided with this
equipment. Use of unauthorized power supplies may cause damage.
Do not spill liquid of any kind onto the unit. If liquid is accidentally spilled onto
the unit, immediately consult a qualified service.
Disposal of used batteries must be made in accordance with local waste
recovery and recycling regulations.

3. INSTALLATION
3.1. Location guidelines
Use the following list as a guide, to find a suitable location to install the VISION.
Install the control panel in a protected location, where people cannot trip over any
power cord.
Select a location free from vibration and shock.
Mount the control panel on a flat stable surface, near a network socket, a telephone
plug (if in use), and an AC power outlet.
Do not choose a location that exposes the control panel to direct sunlight, excessive
heat, moisture, vapors, chemicals, or dust.
Protect cords from damage or abrasion.
Do not install this product near water, e.g. bath tub, sink, wet basement.
3.2. Instructions
Verify that AC power and batteries are not connected, prior to
installation.
To install the control panel, follow the next steps.
1. Remove the two screws at the bottom of the enclosure, and remove the lid.
Figure 2. The lid screws
2. Use the backplate to mark the three hanging holes (see next image). When installing near
the ceiling, leave a minimum space of 5 centimeters.
The enclosure’s dimensions are (cm): Legth:20 Width:20 Height:5

Figure 3. Mounting holes
Make sure to use the tamper’s knockout hole, for the control
panel to alert when removed from the surface.
3. Pass the wiring through the opening and according to the designated surface, use
appropriate wall plugs (if necessary) and screws, and mount the backplate.
4. Connect CAT5 cable and modules (if used).
5. Depending on the model, connect the AC plug (no. 18 in the Quick guide ) or power supply
(no. 6 in the Quick guide ).
6. Insert the batteries in place (no. 12 in the Quick guide ). Observe polarity!
Fully charging new batteries may take up to six hours.
7. Close the screws at the bottom of the enclosure tightly.
8. Check the arm and disarm LEDs (no. 16 in the Quick guide ).

3.3. Tamper switch
The VISION’s control panel has a double-side tamper switch (marked with a circle in the image
below), for detecting if the enclosure is removed from the mounting surface, or if its cover is
being removed.
Set the tamper in the Peripherals Tampers and ELOs menu.
3.4. Hardwired keypad
Use a hardwired keypad (KLT/KLR500) for the initial programming of the VISION. The keypad
connects to one of the parallel keypad connectors (marked in red in the image below), on the
control panel.
The keypad is set with the ID zero (‘0’).
3.4.1. Keypad ID number and version
1. To display the keypad ID and version screen on an
LCD keypad, press and hold the pound and question
mark keys (# and ?).
2. Press zero twice.
3. Press to save and exit.
