1.0 Introduction
The Premier Elite 5Ci-W sounder is an Internal warning device with Ricochet®
mesh technology. It is now even easier to add an internal wireless sounder to your
security system. As the device is self powered the only limit on the number of units
you can put on a system is determined by how many free Ricochet enabled zones
you have available.
N This unit is NOT designed for external applications.
2.0 Tamper Detection
As this unit is designed for internal applications only, and may be mounted at low
level and within easy reach the SAB facility has been disabled and the unit WILL
NOT self activate in the case of the device being tampered.
3.0 System Compatability
The Premier Elite 5Ci-W is compatible with all Premier Elite control panels
V2.11 and later, and Premier Elite 8XP-W & Premier Elite 32XP-W. Ricochet
Monitor V2.18.2 or later should also be used.
4.0 Battery Pack
The battery pack is retained by a reusable cable tie. and should be secured
through the holes in the backplate above the Piezo module.
N All eight batteries (supplied) must be installed with the correct polarity.
Failure to do so will result in the device report ing a battery fault. If 1-2 batteries
are incorrectly fitted the firmware will detect this on power up and flash both
comfort LED’s for approximately 10 minutes. While the unit is in this state it will
not learn to a panel. After approximately 10 minutes the unit will power off in order
to save energy.

6.0 Learning the Sounder
As with all Ricochet enabled devices, the sounder should be learned to the control
panel along with all other devices BEFORE it is installed in it's final location.
The Premier Elite 5Ci-W is learned to a Zone on the control panel in the same
way that Ricochet enabled detection devices are. The Zone type and Ricochet
Device Mode is automatically assigned based on the type of device being learned.
In the case of the sounder the Zone Type is set to "Custom" and the Ricochet
Device Mode is set to Device Specific. These should not be changed. Zone
attributes 1 & 2 and Chime options will be ignored for Ricochet enabled Sounders.
You can learn the device from first power up following "Confirm Devices" or
from the dedicated Ricochet Learn menu.
The 5Ci-W has no Learn Switch, learning is initiated by connecting the
batteries via the Power Jumper
To learn the 5Ci--W to the system follow the diagram below.

N If you need to delete the device from the system you should first put it into
"hold off " mode and remove the batteries.
N If the device will not learn to the system check that all batteries are installed
correctly.
7.0 LED Indications
The Premier Elite 5Ci-W LED’s aid in the installation of the device and act as
status indicators. The table below details the status of each LED indicator.
N The LED jumper has no effect on the status described below.

INS655-6 8/12
8.0 Hold-Off Mode
For safety reasons, each Texecom sounder and strobe unit incorporates a unique
patented engineer Hold-Off mode. This mode prevents the unit from self-activating
during installation and maintenance, thereby allowing only bona fide engineers
access to the unit without any loss of tamper protection. The sounder can be put in
hold-off mode by flashing the strobe 3 times, or by pressing the Omit key when in
Bell Test menu.
When the outer cover is replaced and the tamper circuit is closed, the LEDs will
alternate rapidly, confirming that the tamper circuit is secure and signalling that
self activation on tamper will be re-enabled within 2 minutes, after which the LEDs
will alternate slowly to signal normal operation. If the tamper circuit is re-opened
within the 2 minute period, then hold-off mode will be restored.
N The LED's will only flash after hold off mode has stopped IF the LED jumper is
in the "ON" position.
N The strobe is disabled during hold-off mode. Hold-off mode is immediately
cancelled when the sounder is activated from the control panel if the tamper is
closed.

9.0 Tamper Detection
As this unit is designed for internal applications only and may be mounted at low
level and within easy reach the SAB facility has been disabled. The unit WILL NOT
self activate in the case of the device being tampered.
Care should be taken when installing these devices, and all possible
precautions should be taken to ensure the units are not easily accessible
to unauthorised persons.
Tamper signals will still be generated and logged by the control panel. Tamper
signals will also be transmitted to the ARC if signalling is enabled.
10.0 Mounting the Unit
Select a suitable position to mount the unit, which satisfies the following criteria:
Good wireless signal
N The wireless signal may be checked before final installation by depressing
the tamper switch briefly. The Right LED will flash to indicate communication and
will the go solid for 3 seconds to indicate a successful connection.
Highly prominent for maximum deterrence
High enough to be out of normal reach to deter tampering. See above
In addition to the corner screw fixing points, the unit also has a central keyhole to
simplify mounting and aid levelling.
Four screws and wall plugs are required for mounting the backplate to an even
surface.
N An additional screw is required to provide "Removal from Mounting" tamper
and is required in installations complying with the requirements PD6662 and/or
EN50131. In doing so, care must be taken to leave the screw head slightly proud to
ensure that the microswitch remains level and closes correctly when the outer
cover is fitted.

13.0 Comissioning
Once the installation is complete the sounder should be tested to confirm correct
operation. This can be achieved by utilising the Bell/Strobe test facility in the
"Engineer Utilities" menu.
