2. Getting Started

The basic steps for installing and setting up your Guardline alarm are:

2.1Powering your Receiver

2.2Powering your Sensor

2.3Pairing your Sensor and Receiver

2.4Installing your Sensor

2.1 Powering your Receiver

The main power source for the receiver is the included 12v/500mA AC/DC power adapter. Simply plug the adapter into a wall outlet, then into the side of your receiver, near Zone 1.

We also recommend putting backup batteries into your receiver, to ensure you maintain coverage in the event of a power outage.

The power indicator will be blue when the receiver is powered by the 12v adapter and it will turn red when it is running on batteries.

A flashing red indicator light means your receiver batteries are low and should be changed immediately.

To insert batteries into your receiver, push up with your thumbs just below the Guardline sticker on the back of the receiver.

Install 4 (four) x AAA batteries and replace the cover until it snaps into place.

2.2 Powering your Sensor

The sensor runs on four (4) AA batteries (not included) and operates wirelessly at a maximum distance from the receiver of 500 ft (150 m) for the GL2000 model, or 1/4 mile (400 m) for the GL5000 model.

To insert batteries into the remote sensor:

1. Remove the screws from the four corners of the sensor to access the battery compartment.

BE CAREFUL! The screws are very small, don’t lose them.

2. Install 4 (four) AA batteries, replace the cover and secure the screws.

2.3 Pairing Your Sensor and Receiver

Now that your sensor and receiver are powered, your sensor needs to be paired with your receiver before your system will function.

Have the sensor and receiver nearby and ensure the sensor is turned away from you.

VOLUME up

Turn ON

Press and hold

LEARN/NEXT

ZONE 1 will start to flash

Release LEARN/NEXT button Your receiver is now in LEARN mode

To pair with another Zone: press and release LEARN/NEXT until the zone starts to flash

Press MELODY to choose your chime.

There are 32 melodies to choose from

Once you hear a melody you would

like to use, WAVE your hand in

front of the sensor to activate.

You will hear a BEEP

1 foot away

To exit LEARN mode turn the receiver OFF then ON

NOTE

Learn mode has a time-out feature after 30 seconds of inactivity. If you didn’t hear a beep confirming that your melody was paired, repeat the pairing process and make sure that your selected zone is still flashing when you activate the sensor.

2.4 Installing your Sensor

We recommend mounting the motion sensor at least 3 to 4 ft (1 m) above the ground on a sturdy, non-metal surface (i.e. a wall, wooden post or tree) with the sensor eye pointed straight out over the area you wish to cover (such as up your driveway looking towards your house). This will decrease or eliminate false alarms from small animals, give you a longer area to pick up movement, and avoid unwanted alarms from nearby lawns/roads.

NOTE

Always test that your sensor is working in your desired location before installing it. Avoid placing your sensor in a location where sunlight will shine directly into the sensor eye. Direct sunlight may cause false alarms and/or damage to the PIR sensor.
