Insert the rechargeable battery pack. 

Plug into the socket on the right hand 
side of the compartment. Replace the 
battery cover. 
 

 

The backup batteries will need to charge 
for  24  hours  before  they  are  fully 
functional.  
 
Please 

do not 

attach the telephone cord 

at this time. This will happen at the end of 
Step 6.

  

 

Step 3 

– Installing the 

Wireless Sensors 

There  are  two  types  of  sensors  included 
in this kit.  The magnetic contact protects 
doors  or  windows,  and  the  movement 
sensor tracks movement inside a room. 
 

Important:

  Before  you  start,  write  down 

the zone number of each sensor (labeled 
on  the  back  of  the  sensor),  and  where 
you will place it. You will need these zone 
numbers  in  order  to  program  the  Abbra 
later. 
 

Installing the Magnetic Contact 

Activate  the  battery  by  removing  the 

transmitter  cover,  using  a  screwdriver. 
Remove the red tag from the battery and 
check that the LED flashes. 
Replace the cover and tighten the screw. 

 

 

  Attach  the  the  magnet  to  a  door  or 

window, and the transmitter to the frame, 
ensuring  that  the  ^  mark  on  the 
transmitter  faces  the  magnet,  and  that 
the  two  parts  are  no  more  than  1/4  inch 
(0.25'') apart when the door or window is 
closed. 
The 

Magnetic 

Contact 

is 

pre-

programmed  with  the  name  FRONT 
DOOR  and  it  has  an  ENTRY  DELAY. 
This  means  that  if  the  door  is  opened 
while  the  Abbra  is  on,  you  will  have  45 
seconds  to  switch  it  off  before  the  siren 
sounds.    You  can  change  these  settings 
later  if  you  desire.    This  is  particularly 
recommended  if  you  wish  to  use  the 
magnetic contact to protect a window. 
 

 Quick and easy press and stick 

mount:

  You can install the Magnetic 

Contact using the included adhesive 
pads, or by screwing the transmitter and 
magnet to the door and frame. Note that 
the adhesive tape is very strong. The 
bond will strengthen over time and set 
completely after 72 hours. To attach with 
screws, you must open the Magnetic 
Contact and gently lever out the 
circuit board. Use the casing to mark the 
drill holes. Insert the wall plugs and screw 
the case to the wall. 

 

Replace  the circuit  board  and  transmitter 
cover.  If  you  have  an  uneven  surface 
which  prevents  the  transmitter  and  the 
magnet  from  aligning  correctly,  e.g.  PVC 
doors  or  windows,  you  may  wish  to  use 
the spacers provided. Please refer to the 
main User Guide for more information.
