Directions

Call or email to advise that you have received your order

Open the box, unpack and handle everything gently

Locate the main control panel in a central area, preferably not too far from the entry door, bearing in mind that it will be plugged into a phone jack and an AC outlet, which of course should be close as possible to the keypad.

Write down all of the serial numbers and log them into a file for yourself in case you need them later

To install batteries, open the unit gently and insert the battery while observing polarity. Close it as though it is hinged at one end and press gently to close.

Door / Window Sensors ( preferred method )

Consist of transmitter ( larger unit ) and magnet. One side has two small lines that protrude and indicate that the magnet should be located on that side. We also mark a small black dot to make the magnet side unmistakable.

Preferably, locate the transmitter on the door frame and the magnet on the door. The door can be susceptible to added shock but there are times when preferred mounting simply isn't possible.

The magnet should not touch the transmitter and a gap up to a three quarters of an inch is acceptable. Try for less.

You can mount vertically or horizontally but be aware that vertically can have issues. The transmitter attaches to a mounting plate and if not mounted in a specific mounting direction, it can slide off of the plate depending on a left or right mounting orientation.

Removing the mounting plate is sometimes best but if you do this remember to allow sufficient room where you can reach and open the unit for battery changes without removing the unit.

There are occasions when mounting on the door is the only option. Please remember that it is not a preferred option. You can mount units with screws or with double sided tape. You must assure that transmitters do not fall to the floor when doors slam, etc. since units damaged in this way are not guaranteed. The picture at right depicts a double or French door design.
Mount the motion detector. First unpack it and open it from the bottom and put in the battery while observing polarity. Since this is a delicate object, it is recommended that you mount it with at least one screw from the inside, since you don’t want this falling from the wall. Should it fall and be damaged, it is not guaranteed and you will need to purchase a new one. At a seven foot corner mounting height, it will see approximately 40ft x 40ft. Be advised that it can not see through objects, including windows. Place yourself where you intend to place the unit to see what it will theoretically see and decide the best location.
Mount the control. Choose your location close to a phone jack and an electrical outlet. If you have a GSM and will not be using a phone line, then ignore any reference to phone connections. Gently pry the unit open by utilizing a screw driver at the top and open it carefully. On the inside you will see holes for mounting. Put one screw into the wall while carefully holding the entire system in your other hand. Four or more screws will complete the installation. Plug in the phone wire, which must be within reach to your location. If you are more proficient, you may opt to bury the wiring within the wall.
Use as many screws as you need to make sure that the back is securely mounted in place but leave the screws loose enough so as to be able to adjust the phone and AC wire. Check the length of the power wire and at the transformer end cut off what you don’t need leaving just enough or a bit extra to hide or staple the wire when the job is done.	Plug in the battery wire, secure those loose screws and close the cover, nice and gently. Now plug the system in and take a break, cause you deserve it. It will take about one minute for the system to fully power up. A low battery indication is normal until the back battery has fully charged, which could take up to 24 hours or so.

How To Test the System

Once you are powered up, opening a protected door or window will activate the voice chime, provided that the chime is set to activate.

The final stage is testing with Central Station. You may learn to do this on your own but the first time around, call Dave to assist in this process. 772-349-1153 - Please use your cell phone to make the call as your alarm will be utilizing your land line.

Instructions for calling Central Station When Doing Testing on Your Own

You can call Central to inquire about alarms, test your system, etc. the number is 1-800-933-4762

You will need your name, password and account number (this is not your code to arm/disarm)

If testing, simply ask to be put on test for a specific amount of time, ex: 30 minutes or to end at a specific time

Next, arm the system and put the system into alarm. One or two zones should be enough to guarantee operation .

Let the siren sound for at least 30 seconds and disarm

Wait another two minutes and call central and ask for zones that went into alarm

When testing motion detectors remember that if they were just tripped by movement, they will be asleep for 90 seconds

If Central received the zones that were tripped, then you are done and everything is as it should be

What Central ask for when they call you after an alarm

You have just turned off your alarm after the siren sounded - Central will ask for your name and password

If you actually want the police because you are being forced to turn the system off, just give the wrong password and tell them everything is ok and hang up

After giving the correct password, you will be asked what you would like central to do. If nothing, just say so and thank them for calling

This Central Station is professional but very down to earth. Just speak to them like they are old friends.
