Welcome to your brand new home security system. You’re probably wondering how you’re going to start setting everything up. What
you should do first is remove everything from the shipping box and lay all the parts on a table. Make sure that you received everything
that you were supposed to get (ex: manual, sensors, batteries, etc.). If you did not get everything, please contact us right away so we
can get that corrected for you.

Next, you will want to organize your sensors to determine where you will be placing them in your residence. In section 5.0, there is a
table to help you organize your sensors. If you received any door/window sensors with letters on the boxes, put these aside. When
you are programming your sensors, please keep them on your table until you are done. This is so when you are ready to trigger your
sensors to the keypad, you will not have to run around your residence to every sensor. They will all be there in front of you.

Next, program your alarm system’s basic alarm settings. These include setting your date and time, changing your passwords,
programming your phone numbers, and your voice message.

Section 3.0 - Understanding Your Wireless Zones

The 32 zones for this alarm system are broken down in the following manner;

• Zones 1 – 8 are dedicated for wired sensors


• Zones 9 – 24 are for your wireless sensors
• Zones 25 – 32 are for your remotes and sirens.

The way that this system works is that the wireless zones that your sensors are programmed into are broken down into two groups, and
each group contains 8 zones. When an alarm occurs, the system recognizes that the first group of 8 sensors as being in zones 9 to 16
and the second groups of 8 sensors as being zones 17 to 24. You may be asking what happened to the first 8 zones. Those are reserved
for wired sensors. If you have any, see the section on wired sensors. Otherwise, you can ignore them. These zones will not be active
unless you program a wired sensor into them.

While programming your sensors, the system will refer them as being wireless sensors 1 through 8 and then wireless sensors 9 through
16. This should not to be confused with the actual zone numbers, 9 through 16 and 17 through 24. Below is a table that will help
explain this.

While programming your sensors, the system will reference these zones by the sensor number, 1 through 8. So, your first sensor which
would go into zones 9, will be indicated by ‘01’, your second sensor which goes into zone 10, will be indicated by ‘02’, and so on.

What you will need to do first, is to choose what sensors you would like to put in each zone. A zone is an area in your house that you
want to protect, like a door, living room, or hallway. It is important to remember that you can only put one sensor per zone
unless instructed otherwise. Also, when inputting the sensor types, please reference the table in section 6.1. The sensor types that
6
you will most likely be using are Door/Window Sensors which are Type 7 sensors and Motion Detectors which are type 2 sensors. If
you want the Door/Window Sensors to cause the system to ‘chime’ while the system is disarmed, then that will be a Type 6 Sensor.

Note: The Smoke Detectors will be programmed in only one zone. Each one will need to be programmed. They can be programmed in
any zone from 9 – 24.

Here are the table layouts of all of your 16 wireless zones with their corresponding sensors numbers.

Group 1 (Wireless Sensors 1 – 8) : Zones 9 – 16

Section 3.1: Explanation of Zone Types

Wired sensors are programmed in zones 1 through 8. Wireless sensors are programmed in zones 9 through 24.

Before synchronizing your alarm accessories to your alarm system, each zone must be defined as being a motion detector, door or
window sensor, robbing sensor, gas leak detector, emergency sensor, fire alarm detector, or other sensor. Typically, motion detectors
will be programmed as type 2, door and window sensors will be programmed as type 6 or 7, and smoke detectors will be programmed
as type 8. The chart below better describes each zone attribution.

TYPE 1 TYPE 2 TYPE 6 TYPE 7 TYPE 8

Section 3.4 – Programming Wireless Sensors & Detectors in Zones 9 – 16

In this section, you will be able to learn/program your sensors and detectors in each zone. Unless otherwise instructed, only
program one detector/sensor in each zone.

Exceptions: Some door sensors may have a letter on its box. If the door/window sensor’s box is labeled A, B, or C, you must
program each sensor marked with ‘A’ in one zone, each sensor marked with ‘B’ in another zone, and each sensor marked with ‘C’ in
another zone. These allow you to have the potential to have an unlimited number of these special door/window sensors for up to 3 of
your 16 wireless zones.

Note: Only one sensor of each sensor type will need to be programmed. Since each sensor type has its own unique code recognized by
the alarm system, all of the other sensors of the same letter type will be recognized in that same zone. For instance, if you program a
Type A sensor into zone 10 and you have 3 other Type A sensors, those will automatically be recognized by the alarm system to be in
zone 10.

Exceptions: Smoke Detectors will be programmed in only one zone. Each one will need to be programmed. They can be programmed
in any zone from 9 – 24.

Note:

To activate a Door/Window Sensor Æ Pull the magnet away from the magnetic switch. (Or if mounted, open the door/window.)
To activate a Motion Detector Æ Press the black tamper switch on the circuit board inside the motion detector.

Section 3.5 – Programming Wireless Sensors & Detectors in Zones 17 – 24

In this section, you will be able to learn/program your sensors and detectors in each zone. Unless otherwise instructed, only program
one detector/sensor in each zone.

Exceptions: Some door sensors may have a letter on its box. If the door/window sensor’s box is labeled A, B, or C, you must
program each A sensor in the same zone, each B sensor in the same zone, and each C sensor in the same zone. Note: You will only
need to program one A type sensor in a zone and all the labeled A sensors will be automatically programmed in that zone. The same
is true for B and Cs. (This exception does not apply to most alarm setups and is usually specially requested by the customer.)

Other Exceptions: Smoke Detectors must be programmed in only one zone. Once one smoke detector is successfully programmed,
all included smoke detectors will be automatically learned/programmed in the same zone.

Note:

To activate a Door/Window Sensor Æ Pull the magnet away from the magnetic switch. (Or if mounted, open the door/window.)
To activate a Motion Detector Æ Press the black tamper switch inside the motion detector.

Section 8.0: Understanding How To Read Your Status Codes
Understanding the alarm’s status codes is very important. The status codes indicate alarm types and troubled zones.
IMPORTANT: Please take note of the zone number and status number BEFORE disarming the alarm system.
Once the system is disarmed, the zone number and status number will disappear.

Example Displays:

This keypad display indicates that Zone 9 activated a Status Code 2 Alarm. You will
notice the zone number is displayed on the left side and the status code is displayed on the
right side. Status Code 2 indicates the alarm was activated by a home sensor type. (Most
likely a motion detector.) This status type is considered normal.

This keypad display indicates that Zone 9 activated a Status Code 14 Alarm. Again, you
will notice the zone number is displayed on the left and the status code is displayed on the
right. Status Code 14 indicates the alarm was activated by a tamper alarm. (Most likely a
cover was not properly attached to a detector or sensor.) This status type is considered a
trouble alarm and should be trouble-shooted to fix the problem.

Section 8.1: Status Code Chart


Now that you have an understanding on how to read the zone numbers and status codes, please reference the following chart for status
code icons, reasons, and solutions for each status code.

STATUS CODE ICON DESCRIPTION

Robbing / Panic Alarm Activation (Type 1)


STATUS
1 No Information Provided: **Amendment will be added at a later date.

Motion Detector / Home Detector Activation (Type 2)

Reason: This status code occurs when the alarm is armed away and a home detector or sensor is activated.
(Type 2: Ex. Motion Detector)
Solution: This status code is displayed when a sensor in a specific zone is opened or triggered while the alarm was Armed
Away. This status code is normal unless the alarm is activating falsely. If you did not activate a detector or
sensor before this status code occurred, ensure all door and window sensor contacts are correctly mounted.
STATUS If a motion detector is causing this status code, please ensure the motion detector is mounted correctly. If pets
2 are present, please ensure the motion detector is angled properly for pets. Try angling the motion detector
slightly upward from it’s current position. If no pets are present, change the pulse jumper setting inside the
motion detector. If that does not correct the problem, please reposition the motion detector in a different location
within the room.
If a door or window sensor is causing this status code, the door or window may have been left open. If the door
or window was closed, the magnet and contact switches may not be aligned properly. The contact switch and
magnet must be directly parallel with each other when the alarm system is armed. If not parallel with each other,
this alarm may occur within 1 to 40 minutes (Normally approx. 20 minutes) after arming the alarm.

Gas Leak Detector Activation (Type 3)


STATUS Reason: This status code is normal and occurs when a gas detector is activated.

Door or Window / Armed Away Detector Activation (Type 7)

Reason: This status code occurs when the alarm is armed home or armed away and a detector or sensor is activated.
(Type 7: Ex. Door or Window Sensor)
Solution: This status code is displayed when a sensor in a specific zone is opened or triggered while the alarm was Armed
Home or Armed Away. This status code is normal unless the alarm is activating falsely. If you did not activate a
detector or sensor before this status code occurred, ensure all door and window sensor contacts are correctly
mounted.
STATUS
If a door or window sensor is causing this status code, the door or window may have been left open. If the door
