PLANNING YOUR HOME SECURITY NEEDS
BATTERY MAINTENANCE
Before you begin to install your Security System, analyze the premises to
determine your security needs. If your premises has two entrances, you
may want to put a Door/Window Sensor on each door. You may choose
your main door and a window that is hidden by some bushes and is not
visable from the street. If you are securing a small business, you may
choose the front door and the warehouse door as locations for your sensors.
(If your security plan requires additional Door/Window Sensors, or some
Motion Sensors, see Additional Accessories at the end of the manual.
Motion Sensors (optional) monitor an area and if there is any movement in
that area, the Motion Sensor will send a signal to the Audio Alarm and the
alarm will sound.
Sketch a map of the premises and determine which doors and windows need
sensors and whether you require Motion Sensors.

TESTING YOUR SYSTEM
LIGHTS AND SOUNDS
Before you learn how to use your security system, test to make sure that
the Door/Window Sensors and the Keychain Transmitter are communicating with the Audio Alarm.
TESTING THE DOOR/WINDOW SENSORS
Turn on the Audio Alarm, (slide the button on
the bottom of the unit to “ON”), allow 30 seconds
for the Audio Alarm to warm up. The red “ON”
light will appear. (when testing, do not turn the
“ARM” light on or the siren will sound.)
1. Open the door or window that has the sensor
on it.
2. The Audio Alarm will beep and the “ON” light
will flash once, meaning the Audio Alarm has
accepted the signal from the Door/Window
Sensor. If the unit didn’t beep, it is not communicating with the sensor. Relocate the Magnet
closer to the Magnetic Switch or the Door/
Window Sensor. It may need to be programmed
to communicate with the Audio Alarm, (see
Program Sensors and Transmitters)
3. Repeat the above 2 steps with the other door or window with the sensor.
LIGHTS
ON light lit -power is being sent to the Audio Alarm.
ALL BELOW SCENARIOS INCLUDE THE “ON” LIGHT LIT
LO BATT light off - the Audio Alarm is being powered by electrical
current and/or the battery.
LO BATT light on - the Audio Alarm is being powered by electrical
current only, the battery is weak and needs to be
replaced.
“ARM” light on - the Audio Alarm is armed and will sound when
any sensor is activated.
“ARM” light off - the Audio Alarm is not armed and will not sound
