Planning the Installation
To get the best possible protection from your Watchguard Digital alarm system, it is imperative that you follow the following guidelines on where to place the system components. Below is a diagram of where we suggest you should place the Main Control Unit, the External Siren and the Detectors.
Please Note: The main unit will enter test mode when first turned on. This mode will allow you to verify that all wireless devices you have installed work correctly. When the unit is turned on, Walk Test Mode is entered by default. Please see instructions to complete the Walk Test Mode. Refer page 43.
