- You may quit programming by pressing [PROG] button at any time.

- If no phone number is programmed, the ARM LED will continue to flash.

Testing Phone Numbers:

After you have programmed all the phone numbers, you should verify you have programmed the phone numbers correctly. This can be done by triggering the alarm silently by entering the duress password, so it dials to the programmed phone numbers without sounding the alarm.

Note:

You must inform the recipients of the programmed phone numbers, so they know what to expect when they receive the phone call from the control panel during an emergency. These recipients should know the password to your control panel if you expect them to have remote access of your control panel. For more information regarding receiving the emergency call, please refer to page 26.

1. Press [Arm], you should hear beeping from the control panel.

2. Press [3838]. Beeping will stop, and the control panel will start to dial the first number.

3. The called party should receive the call. Pick up the call and say “Hello”, an

emergency message “System Panic” will be played. If the programmed phone doesn’t ring, ensure the phone number is programmed correctly, or reprogram this phone number again.

4. After the emergency message has been played for several times (depending on

how many times it was programmed), the called party will hear “Enter Password”.

5. Enter either the master password or secondary password. If the correct

password is accepted, you will hear “Password Accepted”, otherwise, you will hear “Password Failure”.

6. Press [0][#] on the telephone to hang up.

7. The control panel will start to dial the next programmed phone number.

Note:

- Refer to page 26 [Receiving the Emergency Call] for more info on how to react

to an emergency call.

- The password is treated as a confirmation of the emergency message. Once a

valid password is entered, the control panel will not call that number again, it will proceed to the next number.

- If any one of the called parties disarms the control panel, the control panel will

not continue to dial the remaining phone numbers.

- After calling all the programmed phone numbers, the control panel will be back

to the previous operation mode.

Installing Door / Window Sensors

Window / Door Sensor is used to monitor doors or windows that open and close. When these doors / windows are open or closed, the sensors will transmit a signal to the control panel to notify the user. These sensors consist of 2 parts, one is the transmitter, the other is the magnet.

Transmitter

Magnet

Before installing the sensor, remove the battery isolator by pulling out the yellow tab. Once the isolator is removed, the corresponding zone LED on the control panel will flash and buzzer will beep. If the magnetic contact is closed, the beeping will stop.

Note:

- Both Window/Door Sensors have been programmed at the factory. They are Zone 1 Sensor 1 and Zone 2 Sensor 1. Trigger the sensor and listen to the beeping and zone LED to determine which one is zone 1 and which is zone 2.

Mounting the Sensor

The transmitters should be mounted on the door frame or window frame by double sided tape. The magnet should be mounted on the door or window by either double sided tape or screws. Make sure the magnet is aligned with the red marking on the transmitter. If the surface of the frame is flat enough, doublesided foam tape is sufficient, otherwise, it is recommended to screw the mounting plate to the frame, then apply double sided tape. After mounting the sensor, if the AAA+ logo is inverted, remove the front cover and rotate it so the AAA+ logo is in the upright position.

(Refer to Advanced Programming)

These control modules should be programmed to the control panel as device 1 to 5. Please follow the programming instructions below to program these control modules.

For outdoor monitoring, please refer to page 33 to program the motion sensor to Alert Zone.

You may now close the battery cover and re-insert the screw. Mount the ball-head joint on the wall with screws provided. Slide the back of the sensor into the ball-head joint. The mounting angle can be adjusted.

Testing

Walk test should be performed after the motion sensor is mounted. Walk in the detected area, if motion is detected, a red light inside the sensor will glow. If the red light does not glow, motion has not been detected and you may need to re-position the sensor. Ensure you walk test all the locations that you would like the motion sensor to cover.

Note:

- Perform the walk test after you have inserted the battery for more than 1 minute.

- Before performing the walk test, the sensor should not detect any motion.

- After motion is detected once, the sensor will not be triggered unless no motion is detected for 20 seconds. Therefore, wait for at least 20 seconds during walk testing between 2 activations.

System Status

The control panel continuously monitors the system status as well as all the sensors status. It will monitor occurrences such as triggered sensors, low battery sensors, malfunction sensors, or phone line failure etc.

In order to check the system status, user can press the “Status” button on the control panel, voice announcement will be made regarding the system and sensor status. When the “Status” button is pressed, you will be notified if any of the following events is occurring:

- System armed or disarmed

- Any triggered sensors

- Any sensors with low battery warning

- Any sensors with failure warning

- Phone line failure

Refer to page 23 for more details regarding system failures.

Arming the System

You should arm the system when you are the last person to leave the house. By arming the system, the control panel will call the preprogrammed emergency phone numbers and the siren will sound when break-in occurs.

Caution: Only arm the system when nobody is expected to be inside the premises. When someone is expected to be within the premises, the system should not be armed.

To arm the system, follow the procedures below:

Learn Sensors

You can program up to 10 sensors to the control panel. There are 5 zones on the control panel, each zone can program up to 2 sensors. Before programming a sensor, you must decide which sensor location (zone number and sensor number) you would like to program the sensor to. It is strongly recommended that you refer to “Sensor Location Selection Guide” before deciding which sensor location you would like to program the new sensors to. Some features you may need to consider are: 1) Beep/Alarm setting, 2) auto mute, 3) alert zone , 4) event trigger. Explanation for each feature can be found in the following pages in Advanced Programming:

1. Beep/Alarm Setting - Page 29

2. Auto Mute - Page 32

3. Alert Zone - Page 33

4. Event Trigger - Page 45

Sensor Location Selection Guide

You can program up to 10 sensors to the control panel. There are 5 zones and maximum 2 sesnors per zone. The 4 features mentioned above are Zone dependent features meaning both sensors in that zone will operate based on the setting for that zone. So if you program 2 sensors into one zone, those 2 sensors will react in the same manner for those zone dependent features. For example, if you enable the Auto-Mute feature for zone 1, both zone 1 sensor 1, and zone 1 sensor 2 will have this feature enabled. It is not possible to enable a zone dependent feature for sensor 1 only, but not sensor 2.

Therefore, the followings are some suggestions of how you should select the sensor location.

1. Check all the zone dependent features, and determine if you would like to enable any one of them.

2. If you decide not to enable any zone dependent features and keep the factory default setting, you can simply program the sensor to any sensor location based on your own preference. Omit the following steps and proceed to "Learn Sensor - Continue".

1. Press [Arm] on the control panel or keychain remote.

1. Press [Arm] button on the control panel when no sensors are triggered. You can also use the keychain remote to arm the system by pressing arm button on the remote.

2. Leave the premises within 45 seconds.

3. After 45 seconds. System will be armed.

Sensor Failure

OPERATION

ADVANCED PROGRAMMING

The control panel constantly monitors its sensors, if the control panel fails to communicate with any sensors, it will notify the user by:

1. The zone LED of the failed sensor will be on steadily;

2. Voice announcement “zone X sensor Y failure” will be played.

When sensor failure occurs, try the following:

1. Check if the sensor is located at where it should be, and whether there is any

physical damage to the sensor.

2. If the failed sensor is not physically damaged, try to activate the sensor and see

if the control panel reacts to such activation.

3. If not, try to remove the sensor from its location, and bring it closer to control

panel and activate the sensor. It is possible that the sensor is installed too far from the control panel and it cannot establish a steady communication with the control panel. If this is the case, please install the sensor closer to the control panel.

Alert Zone (Bypass Zone)

As explained earlier, the control panel can operate in 2 different modes, 1) Alert Mode, 2) Alarm Mode. In alarm mode, when a sensor is triggered, the control panel will either give a 30 seconds entry delay, or siren will sound immediately (with instant alarm). However, there are sensors that you do not want to trigger the alarm when the system is armed. Such as an outdoor sensor, or any other sensors that you only want to give you alert notification. Under such circumstances, zone(s) can be programed to react only when the control panel is in alert mode, these zones will be automatically bypassed when the control panel is in alarm mode. These zones can also be considered as "Bypass zones".

It is recommend to enable alert zone if:

When the backup battery is running low, the “LO BATT” LED on the control panel will be on, indicating the backup battery should be recharged. To recharge the backup battery, plug in the power adapter. It takes approx. 20 hours to fully charge the backup battery.

Sensors (For ML-100A Only)

All of the sensors are battery powered. Depending on the operating condition and environment, the battery life varies from 9 months to 2 years. 9V alkaline battery is used for the motion sensor, the battery life is approximately 9 months. Door / Window Sensor operates on a Lithium CR-2032 battery, with battery life of approximately 2 years. For other sensors, please refer to the user’s instructions regarding the battery life.

ADVANCED PROGRAMMING

OPERATION

Auto Mute

When a sensor is triggered in alert mode, audio warning will be emitted, either beep or alarm. For example, if a door is opened, the beep will not stop until the door is closed. If the door is open for 2 hours, the beep will go on for 2 hours. There are times that this is not desired. With the auto mute feature enabled, the beep will go on for only 20 seconds. After that, even if the sensor remains open, the beep will stop only the zone LED will flash to indicate the sensor is triggered. Beep will go on again if the sensor is closed and opened again.

Note: Auto Mute only functions when the control panel is in alert mode (disarmed). If the control panel is in alarm mode (armed), a triggered sensor will result in entry delay or instant alarm.

Factory Default: This feature was disabled for all zones at the factory.

To enable auto mute feature, follow the instructions below.

After [6] is entered, some zone LEDs will flash or stay on. This indicates whether Auto Mute is enabled or disabled.

When the sensor is running low in battery, the sensor will send a wireless low battery signal to the control panel. The zone LED representing that sensor will be on steadily, indicating sensor(s) in that zone is in trouble condition. Control Panel will also have an announcement to advise the user the trouble condition is low battery, such as “zone X sensor Y low battery”, where X and Y represent the zone and sensor number. Please replace the battery of that sensor.

Keychain Remote (For ML-100A Only)

The battery of the keychain remote (Alkaline, Type 23A, 12V)
