The Console has remote telephone access, with voice responses to acknowledge receipt of remote commands.

When you call home, the Console answers and says “Please enter PIN.” You enter your PIN using the touch tone buttons on the remote telephone.

If the PIN is entered correctly it says “PIN accepted”. If wrong it says “Error.”

Pressing 0, then * (on the remote telephone’s touch tone keypad) arms the Console. Pressing 0, then # disarms the Console.

Pressing 9, then 9, then * tells you the current system status: I.E. it says Armed Home, Armed away, Disarmed, Panic alarm, or Alarm in zone (1 – 32).

The Lamp Module can be used to control an incandescent lamp rated up to 300W. It is not suitable for other types of lamps such as fluorescent or energy saving lamps, low voltage lamps, or lamps that include a dimmer control. Caution: Do not connect an appliance such as a coffee pot or heater to a Lamp Module. It may damage the Module and/or the appliance and could cause a fire hazard. Use an Appliance Module instead.

Testing The Module

Make sure the lamp’s switch is on. Plug the Module into the same wall outlet as your Console’s power supply, press the On and Off buttons on the Console that correspond to the Unit Code setting on the Module. If the Module turns on and off you can unplug the Module and move it to its permanent location.

The numbers 1 – 32 in the display refer to up to 32 “zones.” These represent the Door/ Window Sensors and/or Motion Detectors you installed. Therefore if the alarm tripped because zone 3 was violated, when you call in and press 9, 9, * you will hear “Alarm in zone 3.”

Remotely controlling lights (or appliances) via telephone

If you install one or more X10 Modules (sold separately), see previous page, you can control lights and appliances around your home from any touch tone telephone in the world.

When you call home, the Console answers and says “Please enter PIN.”

If the PIN is entered correctly it says “PIN accepted”. If wrong it says “Error.”

If you then press 4, then * on the touch tone phone, it says “4 On” and turns on any X10 Module(s) set to Unit Code 4 (and the same Housecode as the Console is set to).

If you then press 1, then 6, then # on the touch tone phone, it says “16 Off” and turns off any X10 Module(s) set to Unit Code 16 (and the same Housecode as the Console is set to).

If you own an answering machine.

If you own an answering machine, you will normally set it to answer after a few rings. In this case, when the answering machine answers a call (or if there’s someone home who picks up the phone), the security system will NOT answer the call and will NOT say “Please enter PIN.” You can still however go ahead and enter the PIN to access the security system features above. Just wait until your answering machine finishes its outgoing message and then enter your security system PIN. Note, your answering machine will record the touch tones you hear when you press buttons to turn lights on and off, etc., and will also record the messages played back by the security system.
