WI1576  9/06 
DESCRIPTION 
      The PP100 is a battery eliminator that can be used with a 
variety of Alarm Lock door alarms or any other device that 
requires an unregulated power supply of between 6 and 9 
volts.  The PP100 is designed to replace all power normally 
supplied by the devices internal batteries, thus allowing 
these internal batteries to be used exclusively for battery 
backup if AC is lost.  The PP100 can be used with the fol-
lowing Alarm Lock models:

INSTALLATION 
1.   Install the device to be powered and test with its own 
internal battery power, making sure the alarm sounds 
properly, then reset and disconnect battery. 
2.   Select a suitable location for the PP100 and mount us-
ing 3 #10 x ¾ self-tapping screws and 3 flat washers 
(supplied).  Do not connect power at this time. 
3.  As per the instructions on the next page, cut a cable 
notch slot and/or hole in the alarm box or lock cover.  
Insert the PP100 armored cable end into the hole.  For 
surface mounted applications, secure the armored cable 
with the retaining C ring (provided). 
4.   Plug the battery and load connectors from PP100 cable 
into mating connectors.  Refer to Figures 2 and 3 on 
next page.  For 250, 700 11A, LL-1, PG10:  No adapter 
is required.  For PG21 and PG30:  Use 9V adapter.  
For DL locks:  Cut off all connectors at the end of the 
armored cable, thus leaving only two wires (red and 
black) to be connected to the DL locks terminal strip 
(see Figure 7).  Batteries must remain connected as a 
backup in case of AC failure.   
5.   For surface mounted applications, secure armored ca-
ble using cable clamps and #6 self-tapping screws 
(provided).  If installing on the hinge side of a door as 
shown in Figure 1, be sure to leave a loop near the 
hinges for flexing when door is opened and closed. 
6.   Insert power plug of the PP100 into a 115 VAC source.  
An optional knockout is provided at power cord exit for

connection of ½ BX or conduit if so desired.   
7.   Connect all plugs (and 9-volt batteries if used) as shown 
in Figures 2 and 3 on next page.    
 
TESTING 
Check for proper operation under each of the following 
conditions noting that the alarm sounds and/or the DL lock 
functions properly. 
 a.  PP100 connected to device, battery not connected, 
PP100 plugged into 115 VAC source. 
 b.   PP100 connected to device, battery connected, PP100 
NOT plugged into 115 VAC source (pilot lamp off). 
 c.   PP100 connected to device, battery connected, PP100 
plugged into 115 VAC source. 
 
Periodic Testing - IMPORTANT 
The powered device should be tested at least once 
every month to ensure that no one has tampered with 
the unit and also to ensure that the backup battery is still 
functional.  Backup batteries should be replaced every 
5-6 years.   
 This test must be performed with the 115 VAC input to 
the PP100 disconnected.

INSTRUCTIONS TO ADD CABLE NOTCH 
For devices that allow power to be accessed from be-
hind the device (with the power cable accessed from inside 
a wall or other location), a ¾ hole can be drilled directly into 
the rear chassis of the device.   
For surface mounted devices where the PP100 and its 
armored power cable are mounted to a surface (such as a 
wall or a rear door surface as shown in Figure 1), a ½ hole 
and cable notch slot must be cut into the side of each de-
vices alarm box or lock cover (see Figures 4-7).   
 In either case, the hole and/or cable notch must be large 
enough to allow the insertion of Plug #2 (see Figure 2).  For 
surface mounted devices, the cable notch must secure the 
armored cable and its retaining C ring (supplied). 
 1.   Drill a ½ hole along the edge of the cover or box and 
make a 1/8 wide slot from the hole to the edge.  See 
Figures 4-7. 
2.   Insert cable bushing through hole and secure with C 
ring inside. 
3.   Plug connectors together as per the instructions on the 
previous page.
