INITIAL SETUP

Connecting the Equipment

• Placement of the Base Unit

• Physical Setup
PLACEMENT OF THE BASE UNIT
Height
The recommended height for the Base Unit is
between 3' (.9m) to 6' (1.8m) off the floor. Any
height outside of this range will decrease the sen-
sitivity of the motion detector in the Base Unit. Be
sure that the unit is placed at a height such that any
person accessing the system can easily operate
the keypad.
Edge
If using the Base Unit on a desk, shelf or any other
fixed object, placing the unit near the edge will
maximize the range of the motion detector.
Direction
Face the Base Unit in a direction so that intruders move across the detection zone,
rather than toward or away from the motion sensor in the Base Unit.
Vibration
The Base Unit contains a vibration sensor. Mount the Base Unit in a location that is
not subject to vibration during the armed state. If the system is armed and both the
motion sensor and vibration sensor are activated, an alarm is sent instantly.
Heat
The motion detector inside the Base Unit is sensitive to heat. To prevent false alarms,
avoid placing in direct or reflected sunlight, or near objects that can be heated quick-
ly by sunlight. Do not place the Base Unit facing the windows. Do not place the unit
near heating or cooling sources, like heater ducts, air conditioners, or space heaters.

POWER AND TELEPHONE CONNECTION

The unit must be connected to a power source to begin set up. This will charge the
internal battery. It is recommended that the Base Unit be connected to a telephone line
to provide back-up in the event of cellular reception loss.
