Example: If total auxiliary device current drain is 450mA, add 100mA for the control panel,
for a total of 550mA (0.55 amps); if 24-hour standby is wanted, the calculation will be:
0.55A x 24 hours = 13.2 Ampere/Hour battery needed.
In this example, two 7 Amp/Hr batteries (connected in parallel) must be used.

If you are using hardwire devices such as PIRs, refer to the specifications for that
particular unit's current draw.

In UL installations, maximum current draw from the Auxiliary Output and the Alarm

combined
must not exceed 600mA (500mA max from Auxiliary Output).

Making the Battery Connections
1. Use the battery standby formula (on previous page) to select the appropriate battery for
the installation.
Do not connect the battery until all devices have been wired to the control.
2. Attach the red and black wires on the battery connector cable as follows:
a) Red to the positive (+) battery tab on the control board
b) Black
to the negative (
–
) battery tab on
the
control board.
Refer to
Figure 24. SL150 Summary of Connections
(SOC) diagram for location of the (+)
and (–) battery tabs on the control board.
3. Attach the red and black wires at the other end of the battery connector cable as follows:
a) Red to the positive (+) terminal on the battery
b) Black to the negative (–) terminal on the battery.
Battery Tests
The battery is periodically tested automatically (approximately every six hours), and if it
cannot sustain a load, a
LOW BATTERY
message is displayed and, if so programmed, will
be reported to the Central Station. In addition, the connection to the battery is checked every
3 minutes (a CSFM requirement). If there is no battery detected, or a low-battery condition is
detected, a
LOW BATTERY
message is displayed and a report is sent to the Central Station.
