ASSIGNING SECURITY CODES

A security zone is an area of protection covered by a single wireless sensor transmitter, motion detector, or other sensing/transmitting device. Your se- curity console monitors up to 16 zones and alerts you if there is a violation (see “Zone Indicators” on Page 27).

When you initialize your security sys- tem’s sensors, the console assigns a zone number to the sensor (see “Ini- tializing the Wireless Sensor Transmit- ters” on Page 13). The system includes numbered stickers you attach to each sensor to show its zone num- ber. For your reference, make a record of which area of your home a zone covers. For example, using the floor- plan you drew, you could mark the front door as “Zone 1.”

REASSIGNING

SECURITY CODES

If you want to remove one accessory, reassign an accessory to a zone cur- rently in use, or add an accessory when all zones are assigned, you must completely reinitialize the entire sys- tem.

To reinitialize the system, unplug the console and remove its battery back- up. The console loses all stored codes. Then reinitialize all remote controls, wireless sensor transmitters, and mo- tion detectors, assigning each acces- sory to the desired zone.
