Operation
Alert
When the detection rod is extended, such as when the garage door is open, the sensor will send a signal to the receiver. It will beep and the corresponding zone red LED will flash.
If the sensor is set to zone 1, zone 1 red LED on the receiver will flash, and the receiver will emit a continuous “single beep”, i.e. “beep” pause, “beep”, pause….. etc.
If the sensor is set to zone 4, zone 4 red LED will flash, and the receiver will emit a continuous “4 beeps”, i.e. “beep beep beep beep” pause “beep beep beep beep” pause ……etc.
By the number of beeps emitted by the receiver, user can identify which
zone is triggered.
Mute
When a sensor is triggered for a long period of time, you may stop the buzzer by pressing the mute button. When another signal comes again, you can disable the buzzer for all currently activated sensors by pressing the mute button. The receive will beep again if it receives another signal.
For instance, if you are working on your lawn with the garage door open, you may want to disable the buzzer for this sensor.
Then you can press the “Mute” button after it starts to sound. If any other sensor is triggered, the receiver will sound again.
Alarm
When the receiver is in Alarm operation mode, it will sound its siren when a sensor is activated. The maximum alarm duration is set for 3 minutes. To terminate the siren during the 3-min interval, press the mute button. Although the alarm siren is terminated, if that sensor is still activated, its corresponding LED will continue to flash.
Note: This audio siren is not intended to prevent intruder break-in, it is rather an alert signal indicating a sensor is activated. Therefore, turning off the siren does not require specific password.
Off
No audio will be emitted even sensor is activated. Only zone LED will flash.
5. LOSS OF SIGNAL INDICATION
When the battery level on the sensor drops to a certain level, or the sensor is out of the operating range, the receiver will show a “loss of signal” indication. The red LED representing that zone will flash rapidly, i.e. if zone 1 sensor is lost, the zone 1 red LED will flash rapidly.
When the loss of signal indication occurs, move the receiver closer to the corresponding sensor and trigger that sensor. If the red LED stops flash- ing rapidly, that means the receiver or sensor needs to be relocated. If the “loss of signal” indication persists, replace the battery of that sensor.
6. OTHER HOUSEHOLD ALERT® SENSORS
The Household Alert® Long Range Receiver can work with up to 4 different sensors: garage door monitor sensor, door / window sensor, water sensor, indoor/outdoor motion sensor, etc. Please visit www.skylinkhome.com or contact us at support@skylinkhome.com for more information of how to fully utilize your Wireless Garage Door MonitorTM Alert.
