Locating the Security Console

Choose a location for the Security Console which is as central as possible in the house, while providing access to a modular telephone jack and an AC outlet. The console may be placed on a shelf or table, or may be fixed to a wall using the optional mounting bracket and screws.

Locating Door/Window Sensors and Motion Detectors

Plan the location of the Door/Window Sensors and Motion Detectors so that the RF path which runs in a straight line from sensor to console is not obstructed by large metal objects such as a refrigerators or freezers, and passes through as few walls as possible.

Door/Window Sensors may be hidden behind drapes for a more discreet installation.
