Installation

Now move the magnet away from the Door/Window Sensor. The Console acknowledges that it has been registered with a chime and by displaying ZONE 1 SET.

Installation

Installing the Door/Window Sensors

Repeat this for any other Door/Window Sensors you want to register. The display increments to ZONE 2 SET, etc., as you install more Door Window Sensors. If you connected a second magnetic switch to the contacts on the sensor (as shown on the next page) move its magnet away to install the second magnetic switch as a separate zone.

If desired, you can specify what zone you want the Door Window Sensor to be registered into. Just press the number of the zone you want on the Console’s keypad, before you register the Door Window Sensor.

Press Clear to back out of the menu. After a short delay the display reverts to showing HOME CONTROL on the top line and the time of day on the bottom line.

Removing Door/ Window Sensors

Follow the steps above to install a sensor. Then when the display shows:

1.INSTALL ZONE

Note, if the Sensors you purchased are different from shown here, refer to the installation instructions that came with them.

Ideal location

Sliding window

*Remove shorting link before installing hard wired magnetic contacts.

*

Two doors or windows (requires accessory magnetic switch pair)

*

Note when you add a magnetic switch to a sensor you can register it with the console as its own zone, e.g., the sensor itself can be zone 1 and the extra magnet zone 2.

See previous page.

Press the number of the zone you desire (just as if you were going to register the Door/ Window Sensor into that zone) but instead of registering the Door/Window Sensor, press CLEAR on the Console’s keypad. The display asks you to confirm the deletion:

CLEAR ZONE 1. YES 2. NO

Pressing 1 on the Console’s keypad changes the display to:

1.INSTALL ZONE 13 OUT

Where 13 is the zone you selected. Pressing 2 instead takes you back to the INSTALL ZONE screen.

Press Clear to back out of the menu. You are asked to confirm, 1. YES, 2 NO. Pressing 1 takes you back to the HOME CONTROL screen. Pressing 2 takes you up one level of menu.

•Attach the Door/Window Sensor to the wall using the mounting screws provided.

•Fit the Door/Window Sensor as high as possible at the top of the door/window.

•Make sure the arrows on the magnetic and the Door/Window Sensor are facing each other and that they separate cleanly when the door or window is opened.

•To protect two doors or windows close to each other, use the Door/Window Sensor with an additional set of magnetic switch contacts as shown in the diagrams above.

•Set the DELAY slide switch (inside the Sensor) to MIN to always trigger the alarm instantly (for windows), or to MAX to trigger the alarm after a preset entry delay when the system is armed in the AWAY mode (for doors).

The numbers 1 – 32 in the display refer to up to 32 “zones.” These represent up to 30 Door/Window Sensors and/or Motion Detectors you install, plus the 2 hard wired zones. The numbers show open zones, problem zones and bypassed zones by being displayed as steady on (door or window open), slow flash (there’s a problem with that zone) or fast flash (that zone has been bypassed). Attempting to arm with an open or problem zone makes the Console beep continuously and it will display in words on the display what the cause is, but only for one zone at a time. Bypassing that zone (by pressing the Clear button) moves on to the next problem zone, if there is one.
