ENCRYPTED KEYS
The receiver can support up to 16 encrypted wireless transmitters
(keys) at one time. If the number on the receiver microprocessor is
WAK 4406-4 or higher, the receiver provides you with the capability
to check space available and/or delete encrypted keys using the
procedures below.
The GREEN LED located on the receiver's circuit board may be
used to determine how many more encrypted keys may be enrolled
into the receiver. This LED is also used to indicate when encrypted
keys may be deleted. To determine how many more encrypted keys
may be enrolled and/or to delete enrolled encrypted keys:
1. Remove power from the receiver and set DIP switch 1 to
the ON position.
2. Apply power to the receiver and watch the GREEN LED.
You will see one of the following indications:
a. The GREEN LED blinks the number of spaces that are free
for additional encrypted key enrollment and then goes to
constantly ON.
b. The GREEN LED is constantly ON, indicating the receiver
is full.
c. The GREEN LED is OFF, indicating no encrypted keys are
enrolled.
3. If you do not want to delete any enrolled encrypted keys,
advance to step 4. If you want to delete enrolled
encrypted keys, wait until the GREEN LED is constantly
ON in step 2 a. or 2 b. above and then:
a. Record the positions of DIP switches 1 through 5.
b. Set DIP switches 1 through 5 to the opposite positions
of their current settings and wait a few moments.
c. Set DIP switches 1 through 5 back to their original
positions as recorded in step a. All enrolled encrypted
keys will be deleted.
4. Place DIP switch 1 back into the OFF position to return
to normal receiver operation.

TO THE INSTALLER
Regular maintenance and inspection (at least annually) by the installer
and frequent testing by the user are vital to continuous satisfactory
operation of any alarm system.
The installer should assume the responsibility of developing and
offering a regular maintenance program to the user, as well as
acquainting the user with the proper operation and limitations of the
alarm system and its component parts. Recommendations must be
included for a specific program of frequent testing (at least weekly) to
insure the system's operation at all times.

WARNING! LIMITATIONS OF THIS WIRELESS ALARM SYSTEM
While this System is an advanced wireless security system, it does not offer
guaranteed protection against burglary, fire or other emergency. Any alarm
system, whether commercial or residential, is subject to compromise or
failure to warn for a variety of reasons. For example:
N
Intruders may gain access through unprotected openings or have the
technical sophistication to bypass an alarm sensor or disconnect an
alarm warning device.
N
Intrusion detectors (e.g., passive infrared detectors), smoke detectors,
and many other sensing devices will not work without power. Battery-
operated devices will not work without batteries, with dead batteries, or if
the batteries are not put in properly. Devices powered solely by AC will
not work if their AC power supply is cut off for any reason, however
briefly.
N
Signals sent by wireless transmitters may be blocked or reflected by
metal before they reach the alarm receiver. Even if the signal path has
been recently checked during a weekly test, blockage can occur if a
metal object is moved into the path.
N
A user may not be able to reach a panic or emergency button quickly
enough.
N
While smoke detectors have played a key role in reducing residential fire
deaths in the United States, they may not activate or provide early
warning for a variety of reasons in as many as 35% of all fires, according
to data published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
Some of the reasons smoke detectors used in conjunction with this
System may not work are as follows. Smoke detectors may have been
improperly installed and positioned. Smoke detectors may not sense
fires that start where smoke cannot reach the detectors, such as in
chimneys, in walls, or roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke
detectors also may not sense a fire on another level of a residence or
building. A second floor detector, for example, may not sense a first floor
or basement fire. Finally, smoke detectors have sensing limitations. No
smoke detector can sense every kind of fire every time. In general,
detectors may not always warn about fires caused by carelessness and
safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas,
improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits,
children playing with matches, or arson. Depending on the nature of the
fire and/or location of the smoke detectors, the detector, even if it
operates as anticipated, may not provide sufficient warning to allow all
occupants to escape in time to prevent injury or death.
N
Passive Infrared Motion Detectors can only detect intrusion within the
designed ranges as diagrammed in their installation manual. Passive
Infrared Detectors do not provide volumetric area protection. They do
create multiple beams of protection, and intrusion can only be detected
in unobstructed areas covered by those beams. They cannot detect
motion or intrusion that takes place behind walls, ceilings, floors, closed
doors, glass partitions, glass doors, or windows. Mechanical tampering,
masking, painting or spraying of any material on the mirrors, windows or
any part of the optical system can reduce their detection ability. Passive
Infrared Detectors sense changes in temperature; however, as the
ambient temperature of the protected area approaches the temperature
range of 90° to 105°F (32° to 40°C), the detection performance can
decrease.
N
Alarm warning devices such as sirens, bells or horns may not alert
people or wake up sleepers if they are located on the other side of
closed or partly open doors. If warning devices are located on a different
level of the residence from the bedrooms, then they are less likely to
waken or alert people inside the bedrooms. Even persons who are
awake may not hear the warning if the alarm is muffled by noise from a
stereo, radio, air conditioner or other appliance, or by passing traffic.
Finally, alarm warning devices, however loud, may not warn hearing-
impaired people.
N
Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a
central monitoring station may be out of service or temporarily out of
service. Telephone lines are also subject to compromise by sophisticated
intruders.
N
Even if the system responds to the emergency as intended, however,
occupants may have insufficient time to protect themselves from the
emergency situation. In the case of a monitored alarm system,
authorities may not respond appropriately.
N
This equipment, like other electrical devices, is subject to component
failure. Even though this equipment is designed to last as long as 20
years, the electronic components could fail at any time.
N
The most common cause of an alarm system not functioning when an
intrusion or fire occurs is inadequate maintenance. This alarm system
should be tested weekly to make sure all sensors and transmitters are
working properly. The security console (and remote keypad) should be
tested as well.
