Introduction
This manual is intended for persons involved with the installation, maintenance and operation
of the CP-3500D RF control panel. It is a comprehensive guide that provides details on product
operation and should be kept for future reference. This manual consists of separate sections. Each
section contains information in a manner as to be clear as possible. It is designed to provide all the
information necessary to install, program and operate the equipment. Read and understand this
manual prior to installing or operating the equipment. It is imperative that the installer understand the
requirements of the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) and be familiar with the standards set forth by
Underwriters Laboratories, NFPA 72 National Fire Alarm Code, and NFPA 70 National Electrical
Code.
The model CP-3500D is the first in a series of wireless fire annunciation and control panels
manufactured by CWSI. This system was designed and tested to comply with NFPA 72 National Fire
Alarm Code and UL 864 standard. The CP-3500D is approved for Local, Proprietary, Remote
Station, Central Station and Auxiliary service when installed in accordance with this manual.
FCC Warning
Important: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
FCC Warning – RF Exposure
Important: When using this device, a certain separation distance between
antenna and nearby persons has to be kept to ensure RF exposure compliance.
in order to comply with the RF exposure limits established in the ANSI C95.1
standards, the distance between the antennas and the user should not be less
than [20cm].

Section 1 - Description and Features
1.1 Product Description and Wireless System Overview
The CWSI CP-3500D is an intelligent addressable wireless fire alarm control panel. The CP-3500D
system provides for annunciation of up to 1024 individual addressable initiating devices including
smoke detectors, smoke alarms, fire transmitters and repeaters. It has two on board transceivers that
allows all communications with devices to be done via radio frequency (RF) however only the
antenna “A” transceiver is used in the CP-3500D. Since the communications are bi-directional the
control panel can send out control commands to perform functions including turning on or off repeater
NAC circuits and tandem smoke detector sounder activation. The advanced RF protocol and speed of
the CP-3500D allows a trouble with any one of up to 1024 initiating devices to be reported within 200
seconds. The CP-3500D is field programmable making the addition of devices both easy and cost
effective. An internal piezo sounder provides distinct tones for alarm, supervisory and trouble signals.
The system contains a clock and non-volatile memory that will record and store events by time and
date of occurrence. The CP-3500D is capable of storing 4000 events for later viewing as outlined in
the event log section of this manual.
The unit is also compatible with UL Listed Communicators making the CWSI CP-3500D a complete
installation solution. The system is designed with monitoring and emergency personnel in mind. The
LCD display provides easily identifiable pinpoint information displaying the specific initiating device(s)
in alarm, trouble or supervisory condition. A 21 button membrane switch panel is used for system
control and programming. The CP-3500D notification appliance circuits are 24 volts and field
selectable for Class A or B operation.
The CWSI initiating devices contain microprocessor based transceivers and are battery powered. Bi-
directional repeaters are used to create a cellular network type signaling path to and from the CP-
3500D control panel. Initiating devices transmit both status and alarm information. Repeaters process
the data and retransmit the data through the repeater network to and from devices and the CP-3500D
control panel. All transmitted signals are verified for data integrity, signal quality and reception
confirmation. The CP-3500D is responsible for reading all incoming transmission data displaying
information, sending commands back to repeaters to activate Notification appliance circuits, HVAC
shutdown, Elevator Recall, Tandem smoke alarms and many other control functions depending on
the particular application. Alarm, Supervisory and Trouble signals can be viewed at up to 8 remote
locations with the compatible WRA-3 remote annunciator.
The CP-3500D control panel has many new and enhanced features unavailable in previous wireless
systems due to recent technological advances. These features and industry advancements are what
make CWSI the unsurpassed leader in the wireless fire alarm industry.
