Wireless Solar Siren with Strobe, WS-30S                                   INTRODUCTION The WS-30S is a wireless solar siren with strobe dedicated for LS-30 alarm system. With special designed strobe magnifier, viewing angle and flashing pattern, it provides the users with a fresh experience. The WS-30S is powered by a solar panel which charges the internal battery. When the battery is fully charged, the WS-30S can work for one month without sunshine. With built in transmitter and receiver, it sends heartbeat signal once an hour, if the LS-30 Base Unit fails to receive this signal in the preset supervision time, it will issue a warning message. INITIAL POWER-UP        Please note the internal rechargeable battery is not fully charged when you receive the WS-30S. You have to charge it for minimum 12 hours, (but NOT over 24 hours) first. The method as below, 1. turn on the battery switch, refer to Fig 2 2. either connect a 15VDC power adapter (supplied with   LS-30), or connecting the supplied COM1 cable to the COM1 socket of a LS-30 which is powered, refer to Fig. 2.   PROGRAMMING 1. Enroll the LS-30 Base Unit ID in the WS-30S, steps as below, A). Keep the WS-30S close to the LS-30 Base Unit for convenient operation. Enter the “Installer Mode” on the Base Unit and select \Set Siren\ Siren/Relay Test then wait. B). Turn on the WS-30S battery switch from off state. The WS-30S LED would light up C). Press the “YES” button (for Siren/Relay Test) on the Base Unit within 30 seconds. The Base Unit would transmit its RF ID and be enrolled in the WS-30S. However you can also program this through a PC with the supplied software.  Important Note: If there is strong light shinning on the solar panel, it would produce a voltage to the internal PCB, so that the microprocessor on the PCB can’t be reset when the battery switch is turned on. Under such a condition, please turn the solar panel side down for a few seconds, and then turn on the battery switch.     2. Enroll the WS-30S ID in the LS-30 Base Unit, steps as below, A). Enter the “Installer Mode” on the Base Unit   and select \Set Device\ Enroll Device\ Burglar Sensor\ Enter Zone No.   B) Use a magnet (not supplied, but you can use the magnet for TX-3DS Door Sensor) to approach the  right-bottom corner of the WS-30S, refer to Fig. 3. The WS-30S would emit its RF ID to be enrolled in the LS-30 Base Unit. C). The LS-30 LCD would show “Enroll OK” if action is correct. Likewise, you can also program this through a PC with the supplied software. Remark:  When you put a magnet near the right-bottom corner of the WS-30S, it will generate a chirp and emit RF signal for test/enrolling. This action can also be used for RF check, refer to “Master Mode\ Device Test” of LS-30 manual. 3. If necessary, you can change the alarm time of the WS-30S by entering the desired time on the LS-30 Base Unit, under \Installer Mode\ Set Timer\ Set Remote Siren Time.             LOCATION The WS-30S should be mounted outside the building and in a position where it can be clearly visible and at a height (3~5 meters above the ground) that is relatively difficult for an intruder to access. The WS-30S is built in radio transmitter and receiver which can be affected by the presence of metallic objects in the vicinity. Therefore, please keep the WS-30S minimum 30 cm away from any metalwork.  Important Note: It takes 30 hours to fully charge the battery of the WS-30S under direct sunshine. To provide the maximum amount of sunlight to the solar panel of WS-30S, it’s strongly recommended to mount the WS-30S as below: 1).On the wall facing south for the user lives in the northern hemisphere and above the line of “Tropic of Cancer” (23.5°North). 2).On the wall facing north for the user lives in the southern hemisphere and below the line of “Tropic of Capricorn” (23.5°South). 3).On a wall easterly or westerly for the user can’t find a suitable location as above or lives in between of the 23.5°North and 23.5°South. Fig.1 Fig.2 Power Socket  COM1Socket Put a magnet closely to the right-bottom corner to activate RF transmission.  Fig.3 BatterySwitch
Shadows cast by neighboring walls, trees and roof overhangs should be avoided. Besides, the sun is lower in the sky in winter, the winter shadow should be avoided too where possible.   INSTALLATION AND TEST 1. Remove external power adapter or COM1 cable (if any) from the WS-30S, and turn off the battery switch. 2. Release the mounting bracket from the back side of the WS-30S by pulling the bracket downward from the case.     3. Use the mounting bracket as a template, hold it against the wall where the WS-30S is to be mounted, and mark the positions of the three screw holes. Drill three 6mm (1/4in.) holes 1 inch deep. Insert the supplied wall plugs and attach the bracket to the wall with the screws. 4. Turn on the battery switch. Use the supplied screw (4mm) to fix the WS-30S on the bracket, refer to Fig 4. Then put the plastic cap on the cavity of the top cover. 5. It’s a must to test RF range after installation, steps as below. A).On the LS-30 Base Unit, entering “Installer Mode” and select \Set Siren\ Siren/Relay Test then press the “YES” button, which will trigger the WS-30S to generate a chirp if everything is correct. B).Use a magnet to approach the right-bottom corner of the WS-30S, you will hear a chirp from the WS-30S and a beep from the LS-30 Base Unit if the distance is OK. Remark: If the WS-30S is removed from the bracket, or the housing is opened, the internal tamper switch would activate the siren for 5 minutes, or until the WS-30S is mounted on the bracket again. Meanwhile, the WS-30S would send a RF signal of tamper detection to the LS-30 Base Unit.  INDICATION The reaction of the light and sound of the WS-30S varies with the operation or alarm state as below, -Power ON and code enroll: The WS-30S enters ENROLL state for 30 seconds automatically when the power is applied. Light stays ON continuously, until the WS-30S learns a new code (2 chirps), or a 30-second timeout expires (one chirp, no new code learnt). -Alarm state: Light flashes, and siren sounds continuously. When alarm time expires, sound stops but light keeps flashing until the LS-30 is disarmed by Master/User press hotkey C (Clear) on the Base Unit.   SOUND TYPES For the sake of easy identification of the alarm states, the siren sounds differently with different alarm signals from the LS-30 Base Unit.  :Burglar Alarm, or WS-30S is tampered (continuous tone)  : Fire Alarm   : Medical Alarm, Panic Alarm, Special Sensor Alarm, Sensor Tampered - -          : LS-30 changes from Disarm to Arm state (two chirps, see Note 2) -             : LS-30 changes from Arm to Disarm state (single chirp, see Note 2) Remarks: 1). “-“ means ON, the blank interval means Pause. 2). Assume that “Mode Change Chirp” and “Tamper Siren” are set “ON” on the Base Unit.  3). Arm/Disarm chirp sound can be disabled by setting jumper J10 to “Off” with only strobe remains.  LOW BACK-UP BATTERY Back-up battery is monitored all the time, when low battery is detected, the WS-30S would send Battery Low RF signal to the Base Unit. And once the battery is recharged by sunlight or external power, a “Battery Low Restore” RF signal will be sent as well.
