Product Usage Instructions

Deployment Procedure:

1. Select a suitable location for the call point (See Location Selection).
2. Unbox the call point from its packaging.
3. Power up the call point (See Powering Up – First Time Use / Powering Up – Recovery).
4. Link the call point to the system (See Linking – Wake-Up / Linking – One-By-One).
5. Install the back box (See Fixing the Back Box).
6. Install the device block onto the back box (See Device Block Installation / Deinstallation).
7. Test the call point (See Testing).
8. Remove the “NOT IN USE” label when the call point is in operation. Always remove the “NOT IN USE” label when the call point comes into operation.

Location Selection:
Select a location for the call point that conforms to your local applicable safety standards and allows for good wireless signal transmission to/from the father TAU-TRM-01, TAU-CEM-01 or TAU-EXM-01 network device. It is recommended to use the TAU-STK-01 survey kit to determine a suitable wireless installation location. Mount the call point away from metal objects, metal doors, metal window openings, etc., as well as cable conductors and cables (especially from computers), as they may reduce the operating distance. Avoid installing the TAU-CP-R-01 near electronic devices and computer equipment that can interfere with its wireless communication quality.

LED INDICATOR STATUS MESSAGES

The LED indicator communicates to the final user the status of the TAU- CP-R-01.
WARNING
Please mind that LED signalling burns out bat-tery power, therefore reducing batteries lifespan.

POWERING UP AND LINKING – PRELIMINARY NOTES

TAU-CP-R-01 needs to be powered up with the supplied batteries.
Linking is the operation through which TAU-CP-R-01 is “wirelessly connected” to a TAU-TRM-01, TAU-CEM-01, or TAU-EXM-01 Taurus network device.

POWERING UP – FIRST-TIME USE
Use this procedure the first time you power up a TAU-CP-R-01.

1. Make sure the Link/program switch is set on “ON”.
2. Insert the two supplied batteries into their device’s lodgments.

Ensure that the batteries are installed properly, with their polarities matching the indications on the device.

POWERING UP – DEVICE LINKED TO THE SYSTEM
Use this procedure when a TAU-CP-R-01 is successfully linked to its Taurus system and you have to extract one or both batteries (e.g. batteries substitution).

Reinsert the battery or both batteries into their lodgments.

• Do not touch the Link/program switch.
• If performing a battery substitution, use two brand-new batteries and substitute both of them.
• Ensure that the batteries are installed properly, with their polarities matching the indications on the device.

POWERING UP – RECOVERY
Use this procedure when you fail to link successfully a TAU-CP-R-01 or you want to link it again.

1. Move alternatively the Link/program switch 5 times.
2.  Set the Link/program switch on “ON”.
3. Insert the two supplied batteries into their device’s lodgments.

Ensure that the batteries are installed properly, with their polarities matching the indications on the device.
LINKING – WAKE-UP
“Wake-up” linking consists in associating one or more child devices to the Taurus system altogether in a single operation.
Wake-up is performed either through the TauREX software or the TAU-TRM-01 / TAU-CEM-01 keyboard-screen interface; it CANNOT be done through TAU-EXM-01 devices.

1. Create the “virtual model” of the TAU-CP-R-01 either on TauREX or on the TAU-TRM-01 / TAU-CEM-01.
2. Power-up the call point (either “first-time use” or “recovery”).
3. Set the Link/program switch OPPOSITE to “ON”.
4. Trigger the wake-up procedure either from TauREX or from the TAU-TRM-01 / TAU-CEM-01.
5. Wait until the end of the “wake-up” linking procedure.
6. Check on TauREX or from TAU-TRM-01 / TAU-CEM-01 for linking success. Consult their user manual.

LINKING – ONE-BY-ONE
“One-by-one” linking consists in associating one child device at a time to the Taurus system.
This operation is performed either through the TauREX software or the TAU- TRM-01 / TAU-CEM-01 keyboard-screen interface; it CANNOT be done through TAU- EXM-01 devices.

1. Create the “virtual model” of the child device either on TauREX or on the TAU-TRM-01 / TAU-CEM-01.
2. Trigger the linking procedure either from TauREX or from the TAU-TRM-01 / TAU-CEM-01.
3. Power-up the child device (either “first time use” or “recovery”).
4. Set the child device’s Link / program switch OPPOSITE to “ON”.
5. Wait the end of the “one-by-one” linking procedure.
6. Check on TauREX or from TAU-TRM-01 / TAU-CEM-01 for linking success. Consult their user manual.

WARNING
Use all 4 fixing points.

FIXING THE BACK BOX
To fix the back box to the wall, use the supplied screw and plug fixings. Fixing holes are indicated in picture 1.

DEVICE BLOCK INSTALLATION / DEINSTALLATION

To install the device block to the back box:

1. Hook up the upper rear of the device block to the back box as in picture 2.
2. Push the bottom of the device block until you hear the snap of the back box’s latch.

To deinstall the device block from the back box:

1. Push in the device block latch as illustrated in picture 3. Use the latch release pins on the reset key.
2. Remove the device block.

ACTIVATION / DEACTIVATION

To activate the call point:

1. Press the center of the front window.
   A yellow-black oblique stripes bar raises on the bottom of the window.

To deactivate the call point:

1.  Insert the reset key into the activation release hole.
2. Turn the key clockwise until you hear a snap sound.

TESTING

1. Activate the call point.
   LED indicator signals “Alarm activation”; the control panel receives the alarm message.

2. Deactivate the call point.

3. Reset the control panel.

WARNING
Local safety standards may require you to test these devices on a regular basis.

BATTERY FAULTS AND BATTERY SUBSTITUTION PROCEDURE
When one or both batteries are low in charge, a specific fault message is routed to the control panel. If such event occurs:

1. Remove the device block from the back box.
2. Extract both batteries.
3.  Insert both new batteries into their holders, oriented as per polarity marks. See POWERING UP – DEVICE LINKED TO THE SYSTEM.
4. Reinstall the device block.

WARNING
When a low battery condition is indicat-ed, both batteries must be changed altogether.

• Batteries must be brand new.
• Do not touch the Link / program switch.
• Ensure that the batteries are installed properly, with their polarities matching the indications on the device.

WARNINGS AND LIMITATIONS

Our devices use high quality electronic components and plastic materials that are highly resistant to environmental deterioration. However, after 10 years of continuous operation, it is advisable to replace the devices in order to minimize the risk of reduced performance caused by external factors. Ensure that this device is only used with compatible control panels.

Detection systems must be checked, serviced and maintained on a regular basis to confirm correct operation. Smoke sensors may respond differently to various kinds of smoke particles, thus applica- tion advice should be sought for special risks. Sensors cannot respond correctly if barriers exist between them and the fire location and may be affected by special environmental conditions. Refer to and follow national codes of practice and other internationally recognized fire engineering standards. Appropriate risk assessment should be carried out initially to determine correct design criteria and updated periodically.

Use only in Taurus fire detection and alarm systems.
