Tip: When you want to refresh the detector list or the mode, just swipe to the bottom. The
following symbols can be shown in front of the device name:

the battery status of that device is low. Need to change the battery (CR123A 3V). If the

battery gets low you will receive a push notification.

the device is offline. Reasons can be that the distance between Basis Station and
detector/sensor is too big, there are interferences that interrupt the signal or battery is
empty. If the device is offline you will receive a push notification

6.2 Event List

See the push notifications in the event list that alarmed you of motion in your home (see
Figure 6-5 below).

Alarm Device / Function

Tamper alarm Door contact, PIR motion detector, Siren: When the detector is

removed from the wall or its bracket, or when the chassis is opened,
the base station sends a push notification to the Smartphone. If you
set under chapter 6.1.2 for Link device a camera or a door phone you
will get through pressing on the event to the live view of the selected
device.

Intrusion Door contact, PIR sensor: When the detector is triggered, the base

station sends a push notification to the Smartphone If you set under
chapter 6.1.2 for Link device a camera or a door phone you will get
through pressing on the event to the live view of the selected device.

Offline Door contact, PIR sensor, Siren / Indicates that the device has lost

connection to Basis Station. Reason: Distance between Basis Station
& Sensor too long or the interference is too strong. Solution: Install
device closer to the Basis Station or reposition the Basis Station so
that all devices (sensor, detector, siren) have nearly same distance to
the Basis Station. Do not forget that the Basis Stationo still has to be
in the WiFi range of your router.

7 Change batteries of devices

The Basis Station will send you a Push message when the battery status of a device is low.
You will see a low battery status notification in the event list of your Smartphone. On the
main screen you will see a small battery sign next to the device.

For TX-85, TX-86 and TX-88 it is necessary to use CR123A 3V batteries. Open the device
with a flat cross-screwdriver and switch the old battery with the new one. Normally device
should reconnect automatically. If not activate the pairing mode of the Basis station and
then insert a new battery. If this does not work, the device has to be added again according
to chapter 5.1.2.

For TX-87 it is necessary to use CR2032 3V button cell battery. Change the battery by
using a screwdriver to remove the little screw on the back. Take a flat screwdriver carefully
into the gap of the housing to open it.

8 FAQ

Q: I cannot boot up intelligent alarm Basis Station? A: Please check device input power.
Q: After alarm is triggered, my mobile phone client did not receive push? A1: Please check

if network connection of Basis Station or router is normal. A2: Check to see whether the
Alarm Alert Manager is enabled in the APP “Subscribe Alert”.
Q: I failed to match accessory. A: The accessory may have the following problems: low
battery, other device has been connected, distance is too far (exceeding valid range).
Q: Accessory is triggered without any response. A: The accessory may have the following
problems: low battery, detector offline, exceed accessory detection range.

USA. Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document,

Preamble

 The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and
change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your
freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all its
users. This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's
software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free
Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License
instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.  When we speak of free software, we are
referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that
you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you
wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the
software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these
things.  To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you
these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to certain
responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.  For
example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must
give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or
can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights. 
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this
license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone
understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the software is modified by
someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the
original, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors'
reputations.
avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent licenses,
in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any

Any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to

29

patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.
and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the

copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General Public License.
The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the
Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to
say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications
and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without
limitation in the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". Activities other
than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside
its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program
is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of
having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the
Program does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive
it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy
an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that
refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the
Program a copy of this License along with the Program. You may charge a fee for the
physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in
exchange for a fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a
work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the
terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the
files and the date of any change. b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish,
that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be
licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. c) If the
modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it,
when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an
announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no
warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the
program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License.
(Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an
announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement).
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that
work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and
separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same
sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the
whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to
the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. Thus, it is not
the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you;
rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective
works based on the Program. In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on

The precise terms

30

the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a
storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this
License.

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in
object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you
also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily
used for software interchange; or, b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing
source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to
be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for
software interchange; or, c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to
distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial
distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such
an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to
it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules
it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control
compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source
code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or
binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating
system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the
executable. If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the
same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly
provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute
the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not
have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However,
nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative
works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your
acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,
distributing/modifying the Program or works based on it.

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient
automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the
Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions
on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing
compliance by third parties to this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any
other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court
order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy
simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then

31

as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license
would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies
directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License
would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section
is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
 It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property
right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of
protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by
public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range
of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software
through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice. This section is intended
to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by
patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program
under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those
countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In
such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General
Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present
version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. Each version is given
a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of this License
which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software
Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may
choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose
distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software
which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software
Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two
goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the
sharing and reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY

11. Because the program is licensed free of charge, there is no warranty for the program, to

the extent permitted by applicable law. Except when otherwise stated in writing the
Copyright holder and/or other parties provide the program "AS IS" without warranty of any
kind, either expressed or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of
merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. The entire risk as to the quality and
performance of the program is with you. Should the program prove defective, you assume
the cost of all necessary servicing, repair or correction.

12. In no event unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing will any Copyright
holder, or any other party who may modify and/or redistribute the program as permitted
above, be liable to you for damages, including any general, specia, incidental or
consequential. Damages arising out of the use or inability to use the program (including but
not limited to loss of data or data being rendered inaccurate or losses sustained by you or

 If any portion of this section is

32

third parties or a failure of the program to operate with any other programs), even if such
holder or other party has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

HOW TO APPLY THESE TERMS TO YOUR NEW PROGRAMS

(1) If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to the

public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free software which everyone can
redistribute and change under these terms.
(2) To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach them to the
start of each source file to most effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file
should have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

<one line to give the program's name and an idea of what it does.>

Copyright (C) <yyyy> <name of author>

(3) This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of

the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either
version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
(4) This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY
WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details.
(5) You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this
program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation Inc; 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor,
Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA.

(6) Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
(7) If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when it starts in an

interactive mode: Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author Gnomovision
comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
(8) This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; type
`show c' for details.
(9) The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate parts of
the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may be called something
other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever
suits your program.
(10) You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, if any,
to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the
names:
(11) Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program `Gnomovision'
(which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.
