1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Description
The MCT-237 is a miniature CodeSecure™ 6-button keyfob transmitter,
designed for use with the PowerMax Pro, PowerMaxComplete,
PowermaxExpress unit. The device enables the user to arm/disarm the
alarm system and to view system status.
For each control panel, a maximum of eight MCT-237 keyfob devices
may be enrolled. Operating power is obtained from an internal 1.5 V
alkaline battery. Each transmitter is supplied with a small key ring.
Transmission is initiated by pressing any one of the six pushbuttons.
Upon pressing a specific
CodeSecure™ digital sequence identifiable by the PowerMax unit,
and a 4-bit function code associated with the button that was pressed.
The next time a button is pressed, the keyfob will transmit a digital
sequence of three transmissions that differs from the one used in the
previous transmission and the respective function code. As a result,
malicious "code grabbing" is virtually impossible.
The MCT-237 includes an optional partition feature. Partitioning allows
you to have up to three independently controllable areas with different
user codes assigned to each partition or one user code assigned to up
to three partitions. A partition can be armed or disarmed regardless of
the status of the other partitions within the system.
Note: The Partition feature appears only if Partitioning is enabled via
the control panel.
The main features of the MCT-237 are:
• Status, alarm memory, and trouble data retrieval from the control
panel.
• Visual indications by LCD icon display.
• LCD backlighting activation.
• Various audible signals sounded by the speaker in response to
specific actions.
• 1.5 Volt Alkaline battery.

3. TESTING AND MAINTENANCE
3.1 Testing a New Unit
Since the keyfob transmitter is supplied with the battery already
installed, the unit is practically ready to be tested.
IMPORTANT! Before testing, "teach" the control panel the ID code
of the keyfob, as instructed in the control panel Installer Guide.
A. Stand near the control panel and press the keyfob button marked
with a closed padlock icon.
B. Make sure that the control panel responds as programmed and as
stated in the Installer Guide.
C. Operate the keyfob from various locations within the area covered
by the receiver to determine "dead" locations, where transmission
is blocked by walls and large objects, or affected by structural
materials. For optimum operation, point the keyfob directly toward
the control panel.
Note: If dead/marginal zones are a problem, relocating the control
panel may improve the performance.
3.2 Replacing the Battery
Caution! Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
The battery should be replaced upon receiving a low battery LCD indication.
A replacement 1.5 V AAA alkaline battery, such as GP (or equivalent),
should be used. Replace the battery as shown in figure 2 & 3.
