PowerG combines several field-proven, advanced security technologies and the highly reliable AES encryption method. When used in residential security systems, this combination of technologies delivers unmatched reliability, robustness and transmission range, providing numerous advantages for professional installers, central monitoring stations and end-users alike. Powermaster-10 fully answers many demanding requirements facing the security industry today, and potentially some of the challenges of tomorrow.

Powermaster-10 features two-way communication ensuring there are no lost alarms. There is also a transmission range far greater than the industry standard enabling repeater-free installations even in large premises. The extended battery life in almost all PowerG peripherals stretches between 4-8 years for typical use.

All additional devices are configured from the panel so there are no hardware switches and no need to re-open the peripherals once closed. A visible signal quality indication shown on the device enables the installer to choose the optimal location without having to walk to the panel during mounting. The system also has built in customised configuration templates to enable configuration of the devices collectively instead of individually.

There are numerous tools incorporated into the software design including a diagnostic tool which indicates RF link quality based on the previous 24 hours’ statistics which is able to immediately display problems and enable installation verification. Powerful tools for central monitoring stations such as remote control of all peripherals, remote walk tests and measurements of link quality of all wireless connections in the connected premises are also included.

The alarm system also supports multiple frequency channels (up to 50) using the Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) technology to overcome interferences to wireless communication. Communication itself is also protected by the proven AES-128 encryption algorithm to protect against sophisticated intruders, "code grabbing" and message substitution.
