Frequently Asked Questions - MAC608 Renkforce
How to install the alarm system?
Installation must be carried out by a qualified electrician. Disconnect the mains supply, mount the enclosure on the wall, connect the mains cable (L, N, PE) and the sensors (NC contacts) to the appropriate terminals. Use the DIP switches to set the timings and password.
What backup battery to use?
A 12 V / 1.2 Ah lead-acid battery (optional) can be connected to maintain operation in case of power failure. Observe polarity: red (+), black (-). The battery fits inside the enclosure.
How to arm/disarm the system?
Turn the key switch to ON to arm zones Z7 and Z8. Then enter the password on the keypad to arm zones Z1 to Z6. To disarm, turn the switch to OFF (all zones) or enter the password (Z1-Z6).
What do the LED indicators mean?
ON LED steady: switch in ON position. POWER steady: power present. READY steady: all zones normal (NC). ALARM: alarm triggered. ARMED flashes then steady: system armed via keypad. Zone LEDs indicate status (off=not armed, on=normal, fast flash=alarm, slow flash=memory).
How to set the password?
Set DIP switches to SW1 (ON, OFF, OFF, OFF). Enter *5123 on the keypad, then the new password (4 digits) followed by #. Then set all DIP switches back to OFF.
What is the maximum alarm duration?
The alarm duration is adjustable via DIP switch T3, from 5 seconds to 15 minutes. Comply with local regulations: in Germany, max. 3 minutes. The OFF/OFF/OFF positions correspond to 5 seconds.
How to connect NC contact sensors?
Zones Z1 to Z8 accept normally closed (NC) detectors. Remove the shorting jumper on the zone, connect the two sensor wires. If the zone is not used, leave the jumper in place. Sensors must be wired before powering on.
What to do in case of false alarm?
Immediately turn the key switch to OFF to stop the alarm. Check the zone LEDs: a slowly flashing LED indicates the responsible zone. Check the corresponding sensor (open contact, broken wire). Remedy the fault then rearm.
Can the system be used without a battery?
Yes, the system operates on mains power only. However, for optimal security (power outage), it is strongly recommended to install an optional 12 V / 1.2 Ah lead-acid battery.
How to clean and maintain the system?
Before any intervention, disconnect the mains power and disconnect the battery. Clean the enclosure with a dry cloth. Regularly check the condition of cables and connections. Repairs must be carried out by a qualified professional.
