HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS
Your security system detects move- ment within a 180° arc up to 36 feet away. Once your system is armed, any movement within this range automati- cally triggers the alarm.
After you set up your account with ORCA Monitoring Services, your sys- tem calls and reports alarms to their trained staff of security professionals.
The ORCA Monitoring Services staff first tries to contact you to verify that it is not a false alarm. By calling you first, ORCA Monitoring Services ensures that the police are not contacted if you accidentally set off your alarm.
In alarm situations, the monitoring cen- ter dispatches the police to your ad- dress and tries to contact someone you listed on your emergency call list. (You might want to list your work phone num- ber as the first number.)
ORCA Monitoring Services tries each number once in the order that you listed them on your monitoring agreement. If ORCA Monitoring Services contacts one of the people listed, they do not dis- turb the other people on the list.
SETTING UP MONITORED SERVICE
To set up service, you need to:
•Fill out the enclosed monitoring agreement and mail or fax it to ORCA Monitoring Services.
Monitored service does not begin until ORCA Monitoring Services receives and processes your moni- toring agreement. Allow 24 hours for faxed requests and 5 days for mailed requests.
•Install the system
•Call ORCA Monitoring Services at
During the call, ORCA Monitoring Services programs the PIN and other settings (listed on Page 6) into the system. The preferred set- tings work best for most situations. However, you can ask ORCA Mon- itoring Services to change these settings to make the system work best for you.
