1. INTRODUCTION

The MaceAlert™ Solo Wireless Window & Door Sensor consists of two parts, a
transmitter and a magnetic contact. Once this sensor is installed, with the transmitter
fastened to the frame and the magnet to the door or window, the sensor will trigger
and transmit a message to the MaceAlert™ Solo Wireless Alarm Panel when the door
or window is opened.

2. LOCATION

First determine the location of the sensor, which should be placed:

• In the most vulnerable parts of the property rooms or near key entry/exit points

• Away from extreme temperature sources (radiators, ovens, stoves etc.) and large
metal objects that could interfere with the wireless performance

• Away from direct sunlight.

• Where better RF performance can be achieved (if necessary)

4. HOUSE SECURITY CODE SETTINGS

Unless the factory settings of the Wireless Alarm Panel have been altered, the House
Security Code will NOT need to be changed. However, if the settings on the Wireless
Alarm Panel have been altered, or need to be altered to solve the problem of the panel
and sensors activating intermittently (or not working at all) or interference with other
systems, then the House Security Code on all system modules (sensors and sirens) will
also need to be changed.

House Security Code settings can be altered as follows:

• There are 4 jumpers or dip-switches on each device.

• Remove the [ jumper compartment cover ], then pull out or plug the jumper into
the contacts to change the House Security Code
