FEATURES

You can install the Radio Shack Cen- tral 5000 Monitored Wireless Security Alarm System anywhere in your home using existing wiring. The system uses radio frequencies, so it does not need more wiring. It includes a handheld re- mote, a keychain remote, two door/ window sensor transmitters, a motion detector, and a lamp module so you can immediately use the system. The console monitors up to 16 sensor transmitters (with additional remote sensor transmitters) and sounds its built-in alarm and calls ORCA Monitor- ing Services when a violation occurs.

Here are the system’s features.

Two Door/Window Sensor Trans- mitters — trigger the console’s built-in alarm when a secured door or window opens (additional sensor transmitters, Cat. No. 49-2585).

Handheld Remote — lets you control the system plus lights and appliances connected to Plug ´n Power modules (additional handheld remotes, Cat. No. 49-2591T).

Keychain Remote — lets you arm/dis- arm the system and control lights and appliances (additional keychain re- motes, Cat. No. 49-2591).

Lamp Module — lets you turn on/off a lamp using a remote control. The lamp

also flashes during an alarm (addition- al lamp modules, Cat. No. 61-2682).

Motion Detector — protects an area an intruder might enter (additional mo- tion detectors, Cat. No. 49-2589).

Plug ´n Power Compatible Design — lets you add a total of 16 door/window sensor transmitters, lamp modules, motion detectors, and other accesso- ries to customize your system.

Supervised Operation — keeps track of each door/window sensor transmit- ter’s status and alerts you if there is a problem (such as an intrusion or a low battery).

ORCA-Monitored Security — means you get 24-hour monitoring to alert the police, neighbors, or you at work if the system detects an unauthorized entry.

Auto Timer— gives your home a lived- in look when you are away by turning on one module and randomly turning on and off up to three other modules from dusk until about 11:30 PM (re- quires additional modules).

Important: In some areas, you must get a permit for monitored alarm ser- vice. We recommend that you contact your local law enforcement agency and inquire about local alarm permits.
