MCS-720B
Fully Wireless Indoor Siren
Installation Instructions
1. INTRODUCTION
The MCS-720B is a fully supervised wireless siren, for indoor use, that
communicates with PowerMax Pro or PowerMaxComplete alarm system.
Features
•The siren is activated according to specific commands that are
transmitted from the alarm system (refer to the alarm system
specifications - SIREN SIGNALS).
Note: The siren is activated for a predefined "Bell Time" (refer to
PowerMax Pro / PowerMaxComplete installer guide, par. 4.4),
according to local authorities requirements, or until the system is
disarmed, whichever occurs first.
•Squawk indications when using a keyfob
High, mid or low siren squawk (beep) sound can be used to indicate
arming (1 squawk) and disarming (2 squawks) of the alarm system.
•Flash lights / strobe
When an identified activation command is received from the alarm
system, the strobe light is activated every 1 second (100ms ON,
900ms OFF) for a period of 20 minutes maximum, or until the alarm
system is disarmed whichever occurs first. There is an option to
disable the lights/strobe locally by using an internal jumper.
•Tamper protection
The unit has tamper protection for wall and front cover opening
alarm.
•Low battery voltage alert
When the battery voltage is low, low battery message is sent to the
alarm system. After the low voltage message delivery, at least 2
siren alarms are possible before the siren is totally inactive.
•2-way full supervision
The siren is a fully supervised, 2-way communication device. It
includes a receiver, to receive activation commands from the alarm
system, and a transmitter, to periodically transmit its status signal
to the alarm system.
The transmitted signal strength can
be measured during the installation
(refer to the PowerMax Pro /
PowerMaxComplete
Installer Guide,
paragraph 5.2 – Diagnostic Test).
Figure 1 - MCS-720B
•Self-test feature
The siren can be tested locally (by using the SELF-TEST switch) or
remotely (from the control panel), upon batteries insertion, prior to
the actual wall installation.

3.2 Battery Pack Insertion
Note: Battery replacement should be done by a service engineer.
Caution! Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used battery according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Figure 4 - Battery Pack Insertion
3.3 Self-Test
Upon pressing the self-test switch more than 3 seconds (see Fig. 4),
the siren performs a functionality check during which low level piezo
sounds and flash lights indicate that the siren is fully operational.
3.4 Enrolling
The PowerMax Pro / PowerMaxComplete alarm system must
recognize the siren's unique identification code for command delivery
and supervision. To enroll the siren into the alarm system memory,
refer to the ENROLLING section of the control panel installation
instructions, and momentarily press the self-test switch (see figure 4)
when you are instructed.
After the enrolling, close the siren's cover and perform diagnostic test,
as described in PowerMax Pro / PowerMaxComplete installer guide,
DIAGNOSTIC section. Enrolling cancellation, if required, is also
described in the control panel Installer Guide (see the ENROLLING
section).
Note
To remove the siren or to replace
its battery, without activating the
siren,
login the alarm system
Installer Mode and delete the siren
from the alarm system control panel
memory, before siren removal or
siren battery replacement.
3.5 Strobe Light
Enabling / Disabling
Enable or disable the strobe
(flash) light by using the STROBE
ON-OFF jumper (see figure 4).
