1. INTRODUCTION
The MCT-550 is a fully supervised indoor, PowerCode flood detector,
used to detect the presence of water based fluids at any desired
location.
The MCT-550 transmitter is designed for wall mounting. The flood
sensor is placed in a location where the presence of water based
fluids, as a result of leakage or flooding, is probable.
Upon flood detection, a digital message is transmitted, composed of the
detector PowerCode ID followed by various status and other messages.
' s
Alarm and other data are thus forwarded to the alarm system.
An on-board tamper switch is opened when the cover is removed.
In a tamper situation, a tamper message is transmitted.
A periodic supervision message is transmitted automatically (see
specifications) to inform the alarm system at regular intervals, of the
unit's active participation in the system.
An LED lights whenever alarm or tamper events are reported. The LED
does not light while a supervision message is being transmitted.
Operating power is obtained from an on-board 3 V Lithium battery. A
weak battery will cause a "low battery" report to be added to any
message transmitted.

3. INSTALLATION
A. Attach the flood sensor near the floor.
B. Secure the flood sensor and its cable to the wall using the three wire
clamps. One clamp should be fastened immediately above the flood
sensor. The flood sensor should be installed only in a vertical
position, and facing downward. The remaining two clamps can be
used as required (Figures 2 and 3).
Note: To provide better protection against rats, it is recommended that
the flood sensor cable be placed inside a metal/plastic pipe.
C. Attach the transmitter to the wall. The transmitter should be placed
as high up as possible on the wall to improve communication and to
prevent the transmitter itself from coming into contact with water in
the event of flooding.
D. Remove the case closure screw (Figure 4), then remove the unit's
cover (Figure 5).
E. Flex out the circuit board retainer (Figure 6) and detach the circuit
board from the base.
F. Hold the base against the mounting surface and mark the 2 drilling
points through the mounting holes.
G. Drill the holes and fix the base to the wall using the 2 screws with
countersunk heads supplied in the package.
CAUTION! Screws with other type or size of head may short circuit
the bottom side of the printed circuit board.
H. Insert the edge of the P.C. board with the RF module into the edge
supports, and press the other edge against the flexible retainer
until it snaps home with a click.
I. Clamp the two wires of the flood sensor cable into the auxiliary
input terminals, as shown in Figure 7 (the wires can be inserted in
any order).
4. PREPARATION FOR USE
4.1 The Function Switches
A. Switch Functions
The MCT-550 has a 4-position DIP switch function selector (Figure 8).
Setting the Switches
Set the function switches as desired prior to applying power. Use a ball
point pen or other pointed object to shift the switch levers. The ON
position is indicated by the arrow on the switch body.
