Installation

Initializing Motion Detectors

Remove the cover on the front of the Motion Detector and install 2

AAAalkaline batteries in the compartment. Replace the cover. Press and hold the TEST button on the back of the Motion Detector for 3-4 seconds and then release it. This initializes the Motion Detector and picks a random code that is used when it is registered with the Console. Place the unit face down, so that it won’t see any motion during the registering process below. Note, if the Motion

Detectors you purchased are different from shown here, refer to the installation instructions that came with them.

Registering the Motion Detector with the Console

Press either of the Menu up/down buttons (under the lid to the right of the display). The display then shows ENTER PIN (Personal Identification Number) in the top line.

ENTER PIN 12:00 am

The default PIN is 0000, you’ll find out later (page 24) how you can change this, but for now press 0000 on the keypad (under the lid to the bottom right of the display). This clears the top line and shows * for each number entered.

12:00 am

This takes you to the first level of the menu at step 1. This is the INSTALLATION level. The display looks like this:

1. INSTALL

Press OK and the display looks like this:

1.INSTALL ZONE

Installation

Now simply press the TEST button on the back of the Motion Detector (or turn the unit over so that it sees motion). The Console will acknowledge that it has been registered by displaying (for example) ZONE 3 SET.

Repeat this for any other Motion Detectors you want to register. The display increments to ZONE 4 SET, etc., as you install more Motion Detectors.

If desired, you can specify what zone you want the Motion Detector to be installed into. Just press the number of the zone you want on the Console’s keypad, before you press the TEST button on the back of the Motion Detector.

Press Clear to back out of the menu. You are asked to confirm, 1. YES, 2 NO. Pressing 1 takes you back to the HOME CONTROL screen. Pressing 2 take you up one level of menu.

Removing Motion Detectors

Follow the steps above to install a Motion Detector. When the display shows:

1.INSTALL ZONE

Press the number of the zone you desire (just as if you were going to register the Motion Detector into that zone) but instead of pressing the TEST button on the Motion Detector (to register it) press CLEAR on the Console’s keypad. The display ask you to confirm the deletion:

CLEAR ZONE 1. YES 2. NO

Pressing 1 on the Console’s keypad changes the display to:

1.INSTALL ZONE 13 OUT

Where 13 is the zone you selected. Pressing 2 instead takes you back to the INSTALL ZONE screen.

Press Clear to back out of the menu. You are asked to confirm, 1. YES, 2 NO. Pressing 1 takes you back to the HOME CONTROL screen. Pressing 2 takes you up one level of menu.
