N.B.: When replacing the batteries of the sensor when the system is operational, you can make sure that the sensor maintains its unique code avoiding re-registration. To do this, you OPEN the door or window that is protected by this sensor. After replacing the batteries, you can close the door or window and the sensor will instantaneously become part of the system again. In case this does not work (e.g. the batteries have been low for too long), you have to re-install this sensor. You first have to erase this specific zone (refer to 5.9) and re-register the sensor (refer to 5.1).

The alarm is activated when pressing the TEST button but not when a door or window is opened:

Check that the reed contact and magnet are properly installed.

Check that the wires between transmitter and magnet contact are properly connected.

Check that the transmitter of a sensor is not on or close to a large metal object. Position the transmitter not on but next to metal frames (e.g. on the wall) and observe metal supported synthetic frames. Do not position the transmitter close to armoured glass.

Check that the gap between magnet and the reed contact is not too large (10mm on a wooden and 3mm max on a metal surface).

When you do not hear a short beep from the base station when pressing the TEST button during installation of the door/window or motion sensors:

The sensor is registered with the system already. You can test this by arming the system and causing an alarm. Observe that motion sensors have a reset time between detection of motions (30-60 seconds).

The sensor is not registered with the system because it has the same code as another sensor you are using with the system.

For a DS10 Door/Window Sensor, remove the

batteries and press the TEST button. Reposition the batteries and press the TEST button for 3 seconds. Set the mode switch of the base station to INSTALL and register the sensor by pressing the TEST button.

For an MS10 Motion Sensor, press the CODE button at the back of the unit with e.g. a pencil. Set the mode switch of the base station to INSTALL and register the sensor by pressing the TEST button.

When the battery indicator of the base station comes on:

Replace the back-up battery of the base station (9V block battery). A 9 V alkaline battery lasts for approx. 12 hours after a mains power failure. The setting of the base station are stored in a non-volatile (E2PROM) memory, which means that all setting of the base station maintained during power failure and even when the back-up battery is empty.

When the ARM indicator on the base station flashes:

This indicates that there has been an alarm. In case one of the zone indicators flashes also, this indicates which zone was the source for the alarm. To reset the base station, you press DISARM, after entering your PIN. You now can arm the system again.

When a motion sensor generates an alarm:

Motion sensors are activated by change in temperature. Do not position motion sensors close to heat sources, like radiators. Do not install motion sensors in direct sunlight.

When the base station does not dial out:

Check the telephone connection. Only use the supplied cables for connecting the base station. For more information, refer to 4.1 point 3.

Check that all four of the memory positions have been programmed with a phone number.

Extra siren AS509/PH7208 (optional) does not sound during an alarm:

The siren is controlled over the mains power lines but with a delay of 20 to 30 seconds.

When an alarm occurs, the ARM indicator flashes but the internal siren does not sound:

The silent alarm mode is programmed in the settings of the base station. (refer to 5.3).
