MCS-700 
Wireless Siren 
 
Installation Instructions
 
 
1. INTRODUCTION 
The MCS-700 is an indoor or outdoor wireless siren designed for 
installation in areas in which wiring action is difficult or 
impossible. 
The siren communicates with the PowerMax+ wireless alarm 
control system. When an identified activation command is received 
from the alarm system, the siren activates its sounder, activates its 
flash light (strobe light, every 1.5 seconds) and acknowledges its 
activation to the PowerMax+.  
The MCS-700 and the alarm control system should be located in 
the same house. 
MCS-700 Features 
•  Designed for indoor or outdoor use 
The siren has double plastic cover for extra protection against 
rain and sun. 
•  Distinguishable siren fire and burglar alarms 
Fire alarm: Alternating on/off alarm sound. 
Burglary alarm: Continuous high/low tone sweep. 
Note: The siren is activated for a predefined "Bell Time" (refer to 
PowerMax+ programming guide, par. 4.4) according to local 
authorities requirements. After this period, the siren sound stops.  
•  Squawk indications 
High, mid or low siren squawk (beep) sounds can be used to 
indicate PowerMax+ arming (1 squawk) and disarming (2 
squawks) by a keyfob (see PowerMax+ user's guide par. 7.13). 
•  Strobe light 
When an identified activation command is received from the 
alarm system, the siren light flashes (every 1.5 seconds) until 
the PowerMax+ is disarmed. When AC power fails (the siren 
uses its backup battery) the strobe light is disabled. The siren 
can be purchased with red, blue, amber or transparent lens, 
according to the desired strobe light color.  
•  AC Power indication LED 
When there is AC power supply, the red LED lights. When the 
siren uses its backup battery, the LED does not light. 
•  Triple Tamper protection 
3 tamper switches are included; one on side cover, second touching 
the mounting surface and third attached to the closure screw. 
•  Rechargeable Ni-Mh backup battery 
Enables backup period of 12 hours (standby) / 15 min. (alarm), 
if small battery pack is used (supplied with the product), or 24 
hours (standby) / 15 min. (alarm), if an optional large battery 
pack is used (2 small battery packs in parallel). 
Typical Initial charging time is 24 hours. 
When the battery voltage is low, low battery message is sent 
to the PowerMax+.

•  2-way full supervision 
The siren is fully supervised, 2-way communication device. It 
includes a receiver, to receive activation commands from the 
alarm system, and a transmitter, to periodically transmit its 
status signal to the alarm system. 
The transmitted signal strength can be measured during the 
installation (refer to PowerMax+ programming guide, section 
9 – Diagnostic Test). 
•  Self-test feature 
Upon pressing the MCS-700 self test switch for 3 seconds, 
the siren functional check is performed (low level sounds and 
strobe light indicate that that siren is serviceable).
