EMS SYSTEM 7000
7703 INSTALLATION, ISSUE V2.2 – 13/04/10
12
(g) RADIO INTERFERENCE: KEY IN CLEAR. 30 seconds of an unrecognisable signal will
cause the RED RFI LED to turn on. The LED will flash if the signal ceases. Thereafter, the
LED will light steadily for any RF interference signal which exceeds one second. Turn the
key to reset to clear the display. With the KEY IN TEST, the RFI LED will follow any RF
signal. It is possible to receive a valid alarm with no Carrier Detect occurring, as the
receiver can decode valid data where the carrier is 10DB below the Carrier Detect level.
5.5 Tamper Aerial
5.5.1 The aerial supplied with the 7703 is special and should not be substituted for any other
aerial, unless it has been recommended by E.M.S Limited. Should the aerial be cut or
removed from its BNC connector a LOCAL ALARM will be signalled. If the buzzer option is
selected the audible warning will operate continuously, see Buzzer Option table 4. The
LOCAL ALARM can only be cleared by installing a serviceable aerial of the same type.
5.6 Radio Interference LED
5.6.1 With TEST mode selected the Red RADIO INTERFERENCE LED will light if any radio signal
tuned to the channel used by the 7703 is received. This includes the transmitters assigned
to the 7703. With CLEAR mode selected the RADIO INTERFERENCE LED will light if an
interfering radio signal is received for a period exceeding 30 seconds. This only applies to
signals not recognised by the 7703.
5.7 Anti-false Alarm
5.7.1 Should an ALARM or LOCAL signal be received at the same time as CLEAR mode is
selected, the Anti-false alarm routine will take control and hold the 7703 in the TEST
routine until the signal terminates. During the waiting period the Green CLEAR LED will
remain OFF, the Red TEST LED will be ON and the Red RADIO INTERFERENCE will be ON
announcing the presence of an unwanted signal. Providing the CLEAR mode remains
selected, when the signal terminates the 7703 will then automatically release the TEST
routine and change to CLEAR mode. Only the green CLEAR LED and Amber POWER LED
will remain ON.
