Wireless Home Security System (490-2551) Operation Faxback Doc. # 19506 ARMING/DISARMING THE SYSTEM You can arm the system three ways: Set INSTALL/RUN 1/RUN 2 on the console to RUN 1 or RUN 2 and press ARM on the console. Set INSTALL/RUN 1/RUN 2 on the console to RUN 1 or RUN 2 and press ARM AWAY or ARM HOME on the handheld remote control. See "Arm Away/Arm Home" and "Instant/Delay Mode." (see BELOW) Set INSTALL/RUN 1/RUN 2 on the console to RUN 1 or RUN 2 and press ARM on the keychain remote control. The only difference between RUN 1 and RUN 2 is that when the system is set to RUN 2 and not armed, the console sounds a pleasant chime when you open a door or window. When it is set to RUN 1, there are no chimes. The console beeps once when you arm it. When the system is armed, the RUN 1 and RUN 2 setting have the same effect: opening a door or window with a sensor attached or tripping a motion detector sets off the alarm. To disarm the system, press DISARM on any remote control. The console beeps twice. Arm Away/Arm Home All wireless sensor transmitters and motion detectors arm when you press ARM AWAY on the handheld remote control. If you press ARM HOME, only doors and windows arm. This lets you arm the system at night without accidentally tripping the motion detector(s) yourself when you move around the house. Instant/Delay Mode The ENTRY switch on the handheld remote control lets you arm the system with or without an exit/entry delay. With ENTRY on the handheld remote set to INSTANT (and DELAY on the sensor(s) set to MIN), the system instantly arms and the alarm immediately trips if a wireless sensor transmitter or motion detector reports an intrusion. With ENTRY on the handheld remote set to DELAY, you have a 60-second exit delay and a 30-second entry delay before the system arms of trips. A warning chime sounds during the delay period. NOTES: The supplied motion detector (Cat. No. 49-2589) only operates in the INSTANT mode. If you want to use the exit/entry delay feature, you can use another motion detector (Cat. No. 61-2614) instead of the one supplied with this system. However, the ARM HOME feature might not work. You must set the switch inside the wireless sensor transmitter's battery compartment to MAX in order for it to arm in the delay mode. When set to MIN, the sensor immediately arms, regardless of whether the handheld remote control is set to DELAY or INSTANT. The ARM button on the console automatically arms the system in the DELAY mode. The keychain remote control only arms the system in the INSTANT mode. Other separately purchased remote controls might arm the system only in either the DELAY or INSTANT mode. See the remote control's owner's manual. USING THE PANIC ALARM Pressing PANIC on the handheld remote control, or ARM and DISARM at the same time on the keychain remote control, causes the console's alarm to sound, even if the system is not armed. NOTE: The telephone dialer does not dial out unless the system is armed. ZONE INDICATORS All sensors and motion detectors report to the console about every 90 minutes. If the console does not receive a signal from a sensor within 4 hours, it reports a problem with that sensor by slowly flashing its zone indicator. The console's zone status indicators show four conditions for Zones 1-8. Viewing the Status of Zones 1-8 Steady On - door or window is open. Steady Off - door or window is closed. Slow Flashing - wireless sensor transmitter is reporting a problem (such as a low battery). Fast Flashing - wireless sensor transmitter reported a problem (such as an open window or a low battery) and you pressed BYPASS on the console (see "Trouble Alarm"). (see BELOW) Trouble Alarm If you hear a repetitive trouble alarm when you try to arm the system, this indicates that there is a problem. The system does not arm until you: Correct the Problem - Press DISARM to stop the trouble alarm. Check the zone reporting the problem to see if a door or window is open or a sensor's battery is dead. Then arm the system again. Ignore the Problem - Press BYPASS on the console while the trouble alarm is sounding. The indicators(s) for the problem zone(s) flash rapidly. Press ARM HOME/ARM AWAY to arm the system. The problem zone(s) are not protected, but all other zones arm NOTE: If you bypass an open window or door and arm the system, then later close the window or door, that zone then arms. Viewing the Status of Zones 9-16 If there is a problem with zones 9-16, the console does not show a flashing zone light, but you hear the trouble alarm if you try to arm the system. Press and hold BYPASS on the console. The indicator lights show which zone (9-16) is reporting the problem. If you do not want to bypass the problem, correct it and arm the system again. Other Console Indicators BATTERY LOW (Steady) - battery in console is low or needs replacement. ARMED (Steady) - indicates system is armed. DURING AN ALARM When there is a violation, the console sounds a loud (95 dB) siren for 4 minutes, the ARMED indicator flashes, and the indicator for the affected zone lights steadily. The dialer begins calling its emergency numbers and playing its message, and lights connected to lamp modules flash on and off during the alarm. AFTER AN ALARM When you disarm the system after an alarm (or about 4 minutes after the alarm tips), the console's siren turns off, but the lights connected to lamp modules remain on to let you know there was a violation. The ARMED indicator flashes and the zone indicator for the violated zone lights steadily. Press LIGHTS OFF to stop the flashing indicator and turn off the zone light and lamp modules. CONTROLLING PLUG'N POWER MODULES Use the four ON/OFF buttons on the handheld remote control to control lights connected to Plug'n Power modules. Set the modules to the same house code as the console. Set the module's unit codes to 1,2,3, or 4 to correspond to the handheld remote control's buttons. Using SECURITY LIGHT Use the SECURITY LIGHT button on the handheld remote control to turn on/off a light module set to the same house and unit code as the console. Using BRIGHT/DIM Use the BRIGHT/DIM button on the handheld remote control to brighten or dim lights connected to Plug'n Power modules. Turn on the module by pressing the remote control ON button that corresponds to the module's unit code. Then press and hold BRIGHT or DIM on the remote control until the light reaches the disired brightness. RESETTING THE CONSOLE To remove all sensors and phone numbers from memory, unplug the console and remove the battery. Then plug the console back in. (JC 1/22/96)
