If the Home Monitor detects a problem with the system, the ‘Check’ light will illuminate and a high pitched beep will sound three times every minute.
The default setting in ‘On’ but this can be turned off permanently by changing the setting (see Section 4). Or by pressing the ON button on your Keyfob, you can disable the beeps for four hours. To diagnose the problem please refer to the Troubleshooting Section.
What is ‘Chime’?
Every sensor can be programmed to make a sound when triggered when your system is switched off. The CHIME function described in Section 3, is generally used in conjunction with magnetic door contacts, so you can hear if someone has entered the home. When your system is switched on the sensor will function as normal.
My ‘Chime’ sensor is not working, am I doing something wrong?
Check your BT Home Monitor Control Panel and ensure the Chime light is on. You can toggle between Chime On and Off by pressing key 8.
What is ‘Send ON / OFF’?
To monitor your home even more effectively you can activate the “SEND ON / OFF” feature (see Section 3). This means that your BT Home Monitor will notify your online account every time the system is turned on and off, allowing you to view who turned the system on or off and when. This feature is set “Off” by default.
Why do I not hear any beeps when setting the system in the Home mode?
When switching on at Home, the beeps are disabled so as not to disturb other people.
Can I turn off the voice prompts?
Yes, press key 7 on the Control Panel until the display shows “Voice Prompts Off”.
Can I use the Keyfob to activate the internal siren if needed?
By pressing the ON and HOME buttons together for three seconds you can set off an Emergency alert which will sound the internal siren and send an alert message. This may be turned off by pressing the Keyfob OFF button, or by using the Home Monitor Control Panel or Keypad.
How do I add a new accessory?
To add a new accessory you need to enter the ‘System Profile’ menu on your Control Panel and then enter your master code. If you scroll through the options you will find the options ‘Add / Del Sensor’, ‘Add / Del Keyfob’ and ‘Add / Del Keypad’. Choose which kind of accessory you are adding and then follow the prompts.
