Installing the Control Panel
You must first determine where the control panel will be located. Please follow the criteria below to select the ideal location for the control panel.
Place it within a few feet of an electrical outlet and phone jack.
Place it where it is easily accessible by you and other users.
Place it away from any doors or windows which could be accessed by non-intended users.
Place it away from extreme temperature sources such as an oven or stove and away from large metal objects or mirrors which could affect the wireless performance.
After you have selected a location for the control panel, you are now ready to connect all the necessary wires and ready to power up the unit.
1.Plug in the AC adapter to a nearby electrical
outlet and plug the other end to the socket labeled
"DC 12V" on the back of the control panel. You
should hear 3 beeps and "System Phone Failure"
indicating the phone line is not yet connected.
PWR, ARM and PROG LEDs should be flashing,
LO BATT LED should be on.
2.Remove the battery cover on the bottom of the

4 AAA alkaline batteries into the battery holder
(note the polarity). After inserting the batteries, the
LO BATT LED should be off.
3.Connect the phone line from the telephone jack to
the back of the control panel where it is marked
"LINE". PWR will stay on and PROG LED will stop
flashing.

Installing Door / Window Sensors
Window / Door Sensor are 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.
Each sensor is marked prior to shipment and should be installed as marked. Mount the transmitter on the door 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, double sided foam tape is sufficient, otherwise, it is recommended to screw the mounting plate to the frame, than apply double sided tape.
Testing:
After mounting the sensor, test the sensor by opening and closing the door or window. Open the door or window will result in the following:
1.Voice announcement - Announce the triggered zone and sensor.
2.Beeping - The number of beeps represents the zone number.
3.Zone LED flashing - Number of flash represents the sensor number.
Note:
-Try to mount the sensors as far away from the floor as possible to avoid damaging them. Mounting the sensors at a higher position will also result in better operating range.
-Do not mount the sensor to the exterior of the door / window, always mount the sensor to the interior side of the door / window to avoid being damaged or stolen by non-intended users.
