To set up your system, follow the steps below. For
more detailed information, see the AMBER
SELECT / AMBER SELECT

X

User Guide.

Select a central location in your home for the
AMBER SELECT / AMBER SELECT

X

where you
spend most of your time. The AMBER SELECT /
AMBER SELECT

or counter. It also can be mounted on the wall.

After you complete steps 1 and 2, your AMBER

your Central station to guide you through the rest of
the setup.

Note: Certain remote areas of your residence may
lie outside the reception range of the AMBER
SELECT / AMBER SELECT

X

, resulting in the unit
not being able to receive transmissions directly. In
this case, a Repeater (MCX-600) can be used to
increase the AMBER SELECT / AMBER SELECT

reception range.
Contact a Visonic representative for further details.
