24 ABBRA INSTALLATION
Go over the table in Appendix B column by column. If, for
instance, the “BY ARM AWAY” column has “X”s marked in
the rows pertaining to units 1, 5 and 15 - then arm AWAY
the system and verify that the appliances controlled by
these units are actually activated upon arming.
Continue in the same manner in the following columns,
always creating the state or event that will activate the
relevant units. Verify that all appliances are activated as
programmed.
IMPORTANT! Before testing “BY TIMER” and “BY
ZONE”, make sure that these forms of control are
permitted - press repeatedly and verify that the
display shows:
BY TIMER ON
and:
BY SENSOR ON
A dark box at the extreme right means that these
functions are enabled.
The easiest way for test timed activation is to select the
ninth item in the installer’s menu (”10. USER SETTINGS”)
and set the system clock a few minutes before the relevant
“start time”. Do not forget to return the clock to the correct
time after completion of this test.
5.5 Emergency Transmitter Test
Initiate transmission from each transmitter enrolled to an
emergency zone (according to the list in Table A3,
Appendix A). For example, upon pressing the transmit
button of an emergency transmitter enrolled to zone 22, the
display should read:
Z22 EMERGENCY
(alternating)
VIOLATED
It is advisable to let the central station know that you are
conducting this test, or just disconnect the telephone line
from the Abbra during the test, to prevent false alarms.
6. MAINTENANCE
6.1 Dismounting the Control Panel
A. Release the Abbra unit from its bracket, as shown in
figure 3.2, step 1-3.
B. Separate the Abbra unit from its bracket.
6.2 Replacing the Backup Battery
Replacement and first-time insertion of battery pack is
similar (see figure 3.1).
With fresh battery pack, correct insertion and tightened
battery compartment lid, the TROUBLE indicator should
extinguish. However, the “MEMORY” message will now
blink in the display (caused by the “tamper” alarm you
triggered when opening the battery compartment lid). Clear
it by arming the system and immediately disarming.
6.3 Fuse Replacement
The Abbra has two internal fuses that have automatic
reset. Therefore, there is no need to replace fuses.
When overcurrent condition occurs, the fuse cuts off the
circuit current. Upon fault current being removed, the fuse
is automatically reset and allows current flow through the
circuit again.
6.4 Replacing/Relocating Detectors
Whenever maintenance work involves replacement or re-
location of detectors, always perform a full diagnostic
test according to par. 4.9.
Remember! A "poor" signal is not acceptable, as stated
at the end of the test procedure.
7. READING THE EVENT LOG
Up to 100 events can be stored the event log. You can
access this log and review the events, one by one. If the
event log fills up completely (100 events), the oldest event
is deleted upon registration of each new event.
The date and time of occurrence are memorized for each
event.
When reading the event log, events are shown in
chronological order - from the newest to the oldest. Access
to the event log is provided by pressing the key and
not through the installer’s menu. Reading and erasing
process of the event log is shown in the next drawing.

Figure 7 - Reading / Erasing the Event Log
* While the system is in normal operation mode, press to review the event log.
** Event is displayed in 2 parts, for example, "Z13 alarm" then "09/02/00 3:37 P". The two displays will be shown
alternately until pressing OK again to move to the next event or until the end of the event log (4 minutes).
*** Applicable only if installer code is entered.
