INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW

MULTIPLE USERS

The system allows for up to 6 Users and a Master User
to be configured. This allows the system Event Log to
maintain a record of which users have armed and
disarmed the system. Each user will have a different
Password. In addition a 4 second voice recorder
facility enables the users name to be recorded for use
with the Latch-Key facility.

Only the Master User has access to the programming
functions and is able to configure the system.

Note: Any Remote Control Units on the system will be
recorded as User 6.

SYSTEM ARMING

The system has a full ‘Arm’ and two ‘Part-Arm’ modes.
ARM will ‘Arm’ all zones while the ‘Part-Arm’ modes will
only arm the zones that are enabled for the particular
part-arm mode.

For example:
The system could be configured such that during night
time, ‘Part-Arm 1’ would arm only zones protecting the
lower floor and outbuildings leaving the upper floor free
for movement without triggering the alarm.

During the day while the property is occupied ‘Part-Arm
2’ would arm only the zones protecting the outbuildings.
However, when the property is left un-occupied, the full
‘Arm’ mode will arm all zones to protect the entire
property, (i.e. upper and lower floors and outbuildings).

ZONES

The system incorporates 6 wireless Alarm Zones for
the connection of the system detectors that are used to
independently monitor different areas of the property.
In addition to standard intruder protection, each zone
may also be configured to operate in one of four other
modes:

- ‘PANIC/PA’ mode provides 24 hour monitoring of

any Personal Attack (PA) switches incorporated
into the system.

- ‘24-hour Intruder’ mode provides 24 hour intruder

protection for areas/zones where continuous
monitoring is required, (e.g. gun lockers).

- ‘Fire’ mode provides 24 hour monitoring of any

Fire/Smoke detectors incorporated into the system.

- ‘Test’ mode allows a zone to be monitored while the
2

system is armed. If a detector on a test zone is

triggered an entry will be recorded in the Event
Log but an alarm will not occur.

In addition there is the facility to connect 4 hard wired
zones to the Control Panel, each of which is fully
configurable with the same features as the wirefree
zones (1-6).

ENTRY/EXIT DELAY

When the system is armed with the Exit-Delay enabled,
no alarm signal from any detector on an active zone will
be able to initiate an alarm until the Exit-Delay has
expired. This enables the system to be armed from
within the property and allows time for the user to exit
the property without triggering an alarm. If the
Exit-Delay is disabled then detectors on active zones
will immediately be able to initiate an alarm as soon as
the system begins to arm.

The system Exit-Delay may be configured for between
10 to 250 seconds or disabled completely.

If a detector on a zone with its Entry-Delay enabled is
triggered, then an alarm condition will not occur until
the Entry-Delay period has expired. This allows time
for the user to re-enter the property and disarm the
system before an alarm condition occurs. Generally
only the zones on the main entry route to the property
will be configured with an Entry-Delay. The remaining
zones would be configured with their Entry-Delay
disabled allowing them to immediately initiate an alarm
a detector on the zone is triggered.

The Entry-Delay for each zone may be configured for
between 10 to 250 seconds or disabled completely.

QUICK SET

The system may be fully armed in 5 seconds using the
quick set facility, overriding the programmed exit-delay.
This is useful for setting the system at night when the
exit-delay warning beep will be silenced after just a few
seconds.

FINAL EXIT SET ZONE

Triggering a detector on a Final Exit zone during the
exit-delay will cause the delay to reset to 5 seconds
with the system arming 5 seconds later.

WALK THROUGH ZONE

This feature may be used for detectors located on the
main entry route to the Control Panel. When the
system is armed and a zone configured as a ‘Master
Walk Through’ zone is triggered, the zones Entry-Delay
will start. Any zones configured as ‘Slave Walk

Through’ will be disabled to allow free access to the

Control Panel to disarm the system before the
entry-delay expires an alarm occurs.

If access is gained via a zone that is not configured as
‘Master Walk Through’, the ‘Slave Walk Through’ zones
will operate as normal according to their programmed
Entry-Delay setting.

Note: A zone set as a ‘Master Walk Through’ zone
must be configured with an Entry-Delay.

OMIT ZONE

A zone may be temporarily omitted when the system is
armed using the Omit feature. When the system is next
disarmed any zones set to Omit will be cancelled.

ZONE LOCKOUT

If a detector on an active zone is triggered while the
system is armed an alarm condition will occur. After
the programmed alarm duration has expired the alarm
will stop and the system will automatically reset.
Subsequent detectors triggered will again initiate an
alarm condition. If a single zone initiates an alarm
condition more than three times then that zone will be
‘Locked Out’ and any further alarm signals from that
zone will be ignored until the system is disarmed.

Note: The ‘Zone Lockout’ feature can be disabled if
required.

EVENT LOG

The Control Panel incorporates a memory capable of
storing the last 50 system events. This enables the
user to see which user has Armed/Disarmed the
system and if and when any alarms occurred. The
time, date and details of the event type will be recorded
for each system event.

CHIME

Chime is a low security facility for use when the system
is Standby mode. If the Chime feature is ON, and a
detector on a zone that has its Chime function enabled
is triggered, the internal sounder will produce a low
volume warning tone. A typical use of the Chime
function would be to warn that a door or particular area
has been accessed.

VOICE DIALER

If the Voice Dialer is enabled and an alarm condition
occurs, the system will call for help using your recorded
alarm messages and up to four telephone numbers.

When an alarm condition occurs, the telephone voice
dialer (if enabled) will call the first enabled number in

the calling sequence and replay the recorded alarm

messages for the configured ‘Play Time’. The recipient
must acknowledge the message by pressing the

button on their telephone keypad. If the call is
unanswered or an acknowledgment is not received
then the next active number in the dialing sequence will
be called. The dialer will continue calling each
number in turn until either all numbers in the sequence
have been dialed the set number of times or the
sequence is cancelled/acknowledged by the recipient.

DIGITAL DIALER

As an alternative to the Voice dialer the system may be
configured to interface with a central monitoring station.

LATCH KEY

When the system is disarmed the Latch-Key facility, if
enabled, will call the first latchkey phone number and
replay the user message (recorded under user setup)
for the set ‘Play Time’. The recipient must
acknowledge the message by pressing the
button on the telephone keypad. If the call is
unanswered or an acknowledgment is not received
then the second latchkey phone number will be called.
The voice dialer will continue calling each number in
turn until each number has been dialed the set number
of times or the sequence is cancelled/acknowledged by
the recipient.

For example, the latchkey facility is useful to inform
parents that a child has returned from school and
disarmed the system.

ANSWER PHONE

The Control Panel includes an answer-phone facility.
The answer phone will record and store a maximum of
6 messages with each message being limited to a 30s
duration.

Messages may be retrieved either direct from the
Control Panel or by dialing into the system from a
phone.

VOICE MEMO

In addition it is also possible to record messages at the
Control Panel using the ‘Voice-Memo’ facility. Each
voice-memo message is limited to a maximum duration
of 30s and counts as an answer phone message.

REMOTE SYSTEM CONTROL

It is possible to dial into the system via the connected
telephone line to interrogate the system status and to
have basic control over the system, (e.g. to Arm and
Disarm the system). You may also activate the
microphone on the control panel to Listen-In to what is
3
happening in the protected property.

Answer phone and Voice-memo messages may also
be accessed remotely.

TAMPER PROTECTION

All system devices (except the Remote Control Units)
incorporate Tamper protection features to protect
against unauthorized attempts to interfere with the
device. Any attempt to remove the battery covers from
any device (except the Remote Control) or to remove
the Solar Siren or Control Panel from the wall will
initiate an alarm condition (unless the system is in Test
or Programming modes), even if the system is
Disarmed.

JAMMING DETECTION

In order to detect any attempts to illegally jam the radio
channel used by your alarm system, a special jamming
detection function is incorporated into the Control Panel
and Solar Siren. If this feature is enabled, and the
radio channel is jammed continuously for 30 seconds,
when the system is armed, the Solar Siren will emit a
pre-alarm series of rapid bleeps for 5 seconds. If the
jamming continues for a further 10 seconds or more a
full alarm condition will occur. In addition if the system
is jammed for more than three periods of 10 seconds in
a 5 minute interval, this will also generate a Full Alarm
condition.

The jamming detection features in the Control Panel
and Solar Siren operate independently.

The Jamming Detection circuit is designed to
permanently scan for jamming signals. However, it is
possible that it may detect other local radio interference
operating legally or illegally on the same frequency. If
it is planned to operate the jamming detection feature
we recommend that the system is monitored for false
jamming alarms for at least 2 weeks prior to leaving the
Jamming Detection function permanently enabled.

BATTERY MONITORING

In addition to the battery monitor and low-battery
indicators in each device, the Control Panel will also
indicate a low battery status within any Passive
Infra-Red or Magnetic Contact Detector on the system
using the Event log.

SYSTEM HOUSE CODE

In order to prevent any unauthorized attempt to operate
or disarm your system, you must configure your system
to accept radio signals only from your own system
devices. This is done by setting a series of eight

4
miniature (DIP) switches in all devices (except the

Control Panel) to the same ON/OFF combination (the
House Code) selected by the user/installer. The
Control Panel is then programmed to operate only with
devices set to this House Code. All detectors and
Remote Control Unit(s) must be configured with the
same House Code in order for the system to operate
correctly.

Inside the Siren, Detectors and Remote Control Unit is
a series of 8 DIP switches.

ON

ECE

The House Code is set up by moving each of the 8
switches in each device to the same randomly selected
ON/OFF sequence. When setting the DIP switches,
ensure that each switch ‘clicks’ fully into position. Use
the tip of a ballpoint pen or a small screwdriver to move
each switch in turn.

Note: it is recommended that the system House Code
is always reset to a code other than the factory default.

important to study your security requirements and plan
your installation.

Panel, PIR and Magnetic Detectors for optimum
security. Use this as a guide for your installation in
conjunction with the recommendations contained in this
manual for planning your intruder alarm system.

The alarm system may be extended to provide even
greater protection by fitting additional PIR Detectors
and Magnetic Contact Detectors as required.

REMOTE CONTROL UNIT

The Remote Control Unit is used to Arm, Part-Arm and
Disarm the system.

The Remote Control Unit also incorporates a Panic
switch. Activating the Panic switch on the side of the
Remote Control will immediately initiate a Full Alarm
condition whether the system is Armed or Disarmed.
The alarm can be cancelled by pressing the ‘DISARM’
button on the Remote Control or via the Control Panel.

Any number of Remote Control Units can be used with
your system, providing they are all coded with the
same system House Code.

The Remote Control adopts a CR2032 type Lithium cell
which under normal conditions will have typical life in
excess of 1 year. Under normal battery conditions the
LED on the Remote control will only illuminate when a
button is pressed. However, under low-battery
conditions this LED will flash every time the button is
pressed. When this occurs the batteries should be
replaced as soon as possible.

SETTING THE REMOTE CONTROL

1. Remove the rear cover by undoing the small screw
on the rear of the Remote Control.

2. Located above the battery cover is a row of 8 DIP
switches. Select and record a random combination
of ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’ positions for the DIP switches.
This will be the system House Code that enables
all elements of your transmitters to communicate
with the Control Panel.

IMPORTANT: The House Code for your system
should be changed from the factory default setting.

3. Ensure that the jumper link located immediately

below the House Code DIP switches is fitted in
position for use with this alarm system.

4. Insert the battery under the clip ensuring that the
+v terminal faces upwards away from the PCB.

5. Replace the rear cover and fixing screw.

CONTROL PANEL

LOCATING THE CONTROL PANEL

When choosing a suitable location for the Control
Panel, the following points should be considered.

1. The Control Panel should be located in a position
out of sight of potential intruders and in a safe
location, but easily accessible for system
operation.

2. The Control Panel should be mounted on a sound
flat surface to ensure that the rear tamper switch
on the Control Panel is closed when the Panel is
mounted. The Control Panel should be mounted
at a convenient height of between 1.5 and 2m and
in a position where it will be seen each day.

Note: If small children are in the household, a
further consideration should be given to keeping
the units out of their reach.

3. It is recommended that the Control Panel should
be positioned such that the Exit/Entry tone (emitted
by the Control Panel) can be heard from outside
the property.

4. The Control Panel should be mounted within a
protected area so that any intruder cannot reach
the Control Panel without opening a protected door
or passing through an area protected by a PIR
detector when the system is armed.

5. The Control Panel must be located within reach of
a mains socket.

6. If the telephone based functionality is to be used
then the Control Panel will need connecting to a
convenient telephone point.

Note: It is recommended that the telephone

connection lead is not extended beyond 5m before
connecting to a telephone master or secondary
outlet.

7. Do not locate the Control Unit closer than 1m to
any large metallic object, (e.g. mirrors, radiators,
etc) as this may affect the radio range of the
Control Panel.

MOUNTING THE CONTROL PANEL

1. Undo the two captive fixing screws on top of the
panel and open the cover. The cover is hinged
along the bottom edge.

2. Unclip and remove the two back-up batteries on
either side of the panel.

3. Hold the Control Panel in position on the wall and
mark the positions of the four fixing holes.
Remove the Panel and drill four 5mm holes and fit
the 25mm Wall Plugs.

IMPORTANT: Do not drill the fixing holes with the
Control Panel in position; as the resulting dust and
vibration may damage the Control Panel’s internal
components and invalidate the guarantee.

4. Fit two 18mm No.4 screws into the top holes until
almost fully home and hang the Control Panel over
these screws using the two keyhole slots in the top
corners of the panel casing.

5. Route the cable from the Power Supply Unit up
behind and on the right hand side of the Control
Panel and connect the plug to the DC power
socket in the panel. Ensuring that the cable is not
trapped between the panel and the wall.

6. Fix the Panel to the wall using two 18mm No. 4

screws in the lower two fixing holes in the panel
and tighten the upper fixing screws until they just
grip the casing. Do not over tighten the fixing
screws as this could damage or distort the casing.

7. Ensure that the ‘Reset’ and the ‘Hard-Wired

Siren tamper detect’ jumper links are set in the
OFF position.

8. Connect battery leads to both back-up batteries
and refit batteries.

Battery 1 (left): Red lead to +ve battery terminal
Blue lead to –ve battery terminal
Battery 2 (right): Blue lead to +ve battery terminal
Black lead to –ve battery terminal

IMPORTANT: Take care when connecting battery
leads to the batteries as connecting incorrectly
could damage the batteries or the Control Panel.

Note: The Power LED may flash to indicate that
the unit is being operated from the back-up
batteries and that mains supply is not present.

9. If fitted, remove the plastic film covering the LCD
display and on the display window on the cover.

10. Close the lid of the Control Panel and tighten the
captive fixing screws.

11. Plug in and switch ON the Power Supply Unit, (the

Power LED should illuminate).

12. If required, connect the Control Panel to the
telephone line using the cable supplied by inserting
small RJ11 plug into socket marked LINE located
on the bottom edge of the Control Panel.

If the cable supplied is not long enough to reach a
suitable phone point then it will need extending
using a coupler and extension lead (not supplied).

the Control Panel acknowledges the signal from
the

Remote Control each time the ‘DISARM’ button is
pressed.

5. Press to return to the top level menu of
TEST MODE.

PASSIVE INFRARED DETECTORS

PIR detectors are designed to detect movement in a
protected area by detecting changes in infra-red
radiation levels caused, for example, when a person
moves within or across the devices field of vision. If
movement is detected an alarm signal will be emitted,
(if the system and alarm zone is armed).

Note: PIR detectors will also detect animals, so ensure
that pets are not permitted access to areas fitted with
Passive Infra-Red Detectors when the system is
armed.

Any number of PIR Detectors can be used with your
system, providing they are all coded with the system
house code and are mounted within effective radio
range of the Control Panel.

The PIR Detector adopts a PP3 Alkaline battery which
under normal conditions will have typical life in excess
of 2 years. When the battery level drops, with the PIR
in normal mode and the battery cover fitted, the LED
behind the detection window will flash. When this
occurs the batteries should be replaced as soon as
possible.

CHOOSING A MOUNTING LOCATION

The recommended position for a PIR Detector is in the
corner of a room mounted at a height between 2 and

2.5m. At this height, the detector will have a

maximum range of up to 12m with a field of view of 110
°. The position of the PCB inside the PIR can be set to
5 different positions to adjust the range of the detector.
Setting the PCB in position 3 will reduce the range to
9m approximately, with position 1 providing a range of
6m approximately. The recommended position
setting for the PCB is in position 5.

Note: The range as indicated above refers to the
linear distance in front of the PIR sensor.

When considering and deciding upon the mounting
position for the detector the following points should be
considered to ensure trouble free operation:

1. Do not locate the detector facing a window or
where it is exposed to or facing direct sunlight.
PIR Detectors are not suitable for use in
conservatories.

2. Do not locate the detector where it is exposed to
ventilators.

3. Do not locate the detector directly above a heat
source, (e.g. fire, radiator, boiler, etc).

4. Where possible, mount the detector in the corner
of the room so that the logical path of an intruder
would cut across the fan detection pattern. PIR
detectors respond more effectively to movement
across the device than to movement directly
towards it.

Less Sensitive More Sensitive

5. Do not locate the detector in a position where it is
subject to excessive vibration.

6. Ensure that the position selected for the PIR
detector is within effective range of the Control
Panel, (refer to ‘Testing the Control Panel &
Remote Control’).

9

Note: When the system is armed, household pets

should not be allowed into an area protected by a
PIR detector as their movement would trigger the
PIR and generate an alarm.

Note: DO NOT fix the detector to metalwork or
locate the unit within 1m of metalwork (i.e.
radiators, water pipes, etc) as this could affect the
radio range of the device.

INSTALLING THE PIR DETECTORS

Ensure that the system is in Test Mode.

1. Undo and remove the fixing screw from the bottom
edge of the PIR. Carefully pull the bottom edge of
the detector away from the rear cover and then
slide down to release the top clips.

2. Carefully drill out the required mounting holes in

the rear cover using a 3mm drill according to
whether the unit is being mounted in a corner or
against a flat wall.

3. Using the rear cover as a template, mark the

positions of the fixing holes on the wall.

4. Fix the rear cover to the wall using the two 18mm

No.4 screws and 25mm wall plugs, (a 5mm hole
will be required for the wall plugs). Do not
over-tighten the fixing screws as this may distort or
damage the cover.

5. Configure the PIR detector as described below.

Remember that on initial installation that the device
needs to be tested and should therefore be set in
Walk Test Mode.

6. Check that the detector PCB is located and set in

the correct position to give the detection zone
pattern required.

To adjust the PCB position, simply slide it up or
down ensuring that the location legs are aligned
with the required position number marked on the
board.

7. To refit the PIR detector to the rear cover, offer the
detector up to the rear cover and locate the clips in
the top edge into the rear cover. Push the lower
edge of the detector into place and refit the fixing
screw in the bottom edge of the PIR to secure in
position. Do not over-tighten the fixing screws as
this may damage the casing.

SETTING THE PIR DETECTORS

Located on the PCB of the PIR Detector are two blocks
of DIP switches (SW2 and SW3).

1. DIP switches SW2 (numbered 1-8) are used to set
the House Code for the PIR Detector and must be
set to the same ON/OFF combination as the House
Code DIP switches in all other system devices.

2. Set the alarm zone which the detector will operate

on with DIP switches 1-3 of SW3 as follows:

Zone 1 OFF OFF OFF

Zone 2 OFF OFF ON

Zone 3 OFF ON OFF

Zone 4 OFF ON ON

Zone 5 ON OFF OFF

Zone 6 ON OFF ON

DIP 1 DIP 2 DIP 3

3. DIP 4 of SW3 is used to configure the PIR Detector
for walk test mode, which allows the operation of
the detector to be checked during installation
without triggering a Full Alarm.

ON Walk Test mode
OFF Normal mode

Note: On initial installation the detector should be
set into Walk-Test mode ready for testing.

4. The PIR Detector incorporates an anti-false alarm
feature designed to compensate for situations

Dip Switches

where the detector may be affected by
environmental changes, (e.g. insects, air
temperature, etc). This feature is called
“sensitivity detection” and may be selected for high
or low detection.

The recommended setting is for high sensitivity
detection. However, in cases of extreme
environmental problems or if unattributable false
alarms are experienced, it may be necessary to
select low sensitivity detection.

Set the required sensitivity detection using DIP 5 of
SW3 as follows:

ON high sensitivity detection
OFF low sensitivity detection

Note: The higher the sensitivity detection the less
movement will be necessary before the PIR
detector will trigger the alarm.

5. The setting of the DIP4 & DIP5 of SW3 can be

Note: When the 9V Alkaline battery is connected,
the LED behind the lens will flash for 2-3 minutes
until the PIR has warmed-up and stabilized. The
LED will then stop flashing and turn OFF.

TESTING THE PIR DETECTORS

Ensure that the system is in Test Mode.

With the PIR detector set in Test mode and mounted in
position on the wall, allow 2-3 minutes for the detector
to stabilize before commencing the Walk Test.

1. Use the and buttons to scroll
through the menu until ‘WALK TEST’ is displayed.

Press to activate Walk Test.
‘ Walk Test Waiting…’ will be displayed.

2. Walk into and move slowly around the protected

area, each time the detector senses movement the
LED behind the lens will flash. In addition, the
Control Panel will beep to indicate that the alarm
signal has been received and the identity of the zone
that the detector is configured for will be displayed.

If necessary adjust the detection range by changing
the mounting position of the PCB within the PIR
housing.

Note: In normal operation, the LED behind the PIR
lens will not flash on movement detection, (unless
the battery is low).

If necessary re-adjust the detection pattern by
changing the mounting position of the PCB within
the PIR housing.

3. Remove the back cover of the PIR detector. The

Control Panel should beep and display ‘Accessory
Tamper’ to show that the detector’s tamper switch
has been activated.

4. Press to return to the top level menu of

TEST MODE.

5. Reconfigure the PIR Detector for normal mode by

setting DIP4 of SW3 to OFF and refit in position.

Note: When the detector is fully installed i.e. battery
cover is refitted; the unit will not detect movement for
approximately 45 seconds after each activation. (This
feature is present to conserve battery power and
maximize the battery life).

MAGNETIC CONTACT
DETECTOR(S)

The Magnetic Contact consists of two parts; a Detector
and a Magnet. They are designed to be fitted to
either doors or windows with the Magnet mounted on
the moving/opening part and the Detector mounted on
the fixed door or window frame.

The Magnetic Contact Detector is powered by two
CR2032 type Lithium cells which under normal
conditions will have typical life in excess of 1 year.
Under normal battery conditions the LED on the
11

Detector will not illuminate when the Detector is
triggered, (unless in test mode). However, under low
battery conditions this LED will be illuminated for
approx. 1 second when the detector is triggered.
When this occurs the batteries should be replaced as
soon as possible.

The Magnetic Contact Detector has the facility to
connect an additional wired Magnetic Contact. This
additional contact must be of a normally closed contact
type with the contacts being opened in order to
generate an alarm condition.

Any number of Magnetic Contact Detectors can be
used with the system, providing they are all coded with
the system house code and are mounted within
effective radio range of the Control Panel.

CHOOSING A MOUNTING LOCATION

The Magnetic Contact Detector is suitable for mounting
in dry interior locations only.

Decide which doors/windows are to be protected by
fitting Magnetic Contact Detectors, (usually the front
and back doors as a minimum will have Magnetic
Contact Detectors fitted). Additional detectors may
also be fitted where required to other vulnerable doors
or windows, (e.g. garage, patio/conservatory doors
etc).

Ensure that the position selected for the Magnetic
Contact detector is within effective range of the Control
Panel, (refer to ‘Testing the Control Panel & Remote
Control’).

Note: Take care when fixing the Detector to a metal
frame, or mounting within 1m of metalwork (i.e.
radiators, water pipes, etc) as this could affect the radio
range of the device. If required, it may be necessary
to space the magnet and detector away from the metal
surface using a plastic or wooden spacer to achieve
the necessary radio range.

INSTALLING THE MAGNETIC CONTACT
DETECTORS

Ensure that the system is in Test Mode.

1. Remove the battery cover by sliding and lifting it off.
(DO NOT use a screwdriver to lever the cover off)

2. Remove the battery holder by carefully tilting up
the end and pulling the connector off of the printed
circuit board.

3. Mount the Detector to the fixed part of the frame
along the opening edge opposite the hinges using
either the double sided adhesive tape or screws
provided.

If fixing the Detector with screws; fit the Keyhole
slot in the top of the Detector over the head of the
smaller pan-head screw. Secure the bottom of
the Detector using the 12mm countersunk head
screw fitted within the battery compartment. You
will need to drill out the centre of the fixing screw
hole using a 3mm drill. Do not over-tighten the
fixing screws as this may distort or damage the
casing.

4. Fit the Magnet to the moving part of the
door/window opposite the Detector using the
adhesive tape or 15mm fixing screws. Ensure that
the parallel gap between the Magnet and Detector

is less than 10mm and that the arrow on the
Magnet is pointing towards and aligned with the
mark on the Detector.
