You will be using the (#), (*) and number keys in the programming and
testing of the MiniAlarm Plus. Before programming, make sure your phone
line is connected to the MiniAlarm and the other end is plugged into your
wall telephone jack.
1.
Press and hold the pound (#) key on the keypad.
2.
While CONTINUING TO HOLD the (#) key, use the keypad to enter
the telephone number of the location you want the MiniAlarm to call.
Remember! Keep holding down the (#) key until the entire phone
number is entered! Enter the telephone number exactly as you would
if you were to dial that location on the telephone. In other words, enter
a “1” and/or the area code if required.
NOTE: Do not program phone numbers of emergency fire, police or
ambulance services into the MiniAlarm. There is no audible
notification of the location that is calling so the agency will not be
able to identify the address of the problem.
3.
Release the (#) key after entering all the digits of the “call-to”
telephone number. The maximum number of digits in the telephone
number is 40. Eligible digits include any of the number keys and the
“star” (*) key. All digits and the star (*) key are part of the 40 digit
total.
4.
Users can enter a five second pause in the phone number by pressing
the “star” (*) key twice. This will count as two digits of the total phone
number. For every two star keys entered, there will be a five second
pause. If three star keys are entered in succession, the first two will be
noted as the 5 second pause and the third star key will be the actual (*)
key played as part of the phone number. If four star (*) keys are
entered, the MiniAlarm would pause the dialing sequence for 10
seconds.
5.
To change the phone number, simply repeat the process with a new
phone number and the old number will be erased.
6.
The “Call-To” phone number is retained in memory even if the battery
is removed and the phone cord is unattached.

IMPORTANT TIPS ON ENTERING CALL-TO PHONE NUMBER
•
LONG DISTANCE: Make sure you enter the phone number exactly
like you would if you were to pick up the phone and call that person. Use
a “1” and/or the proper area code if required.
•
AREA CODES: Don’t forget to change your “call-to” telephone number
if the area code changes. Your WaterAlarm will continue to call-out to
an incorrect phone number and you may incur a great deal of long
distance charges if you do not change area codes appropriately.

•
DIALING “9”: Some phone systems require that you dial a “9” before
the rest of the telephone number in order to get an outside line. Simply
include the “9” at the beginning of the phone number. You may need to
add a pause after the “9” so the WaterAlarm can wait for a dial tone.
•
Do not program phone numbers of emergency fire, police or ambulance
services into the WaterAlarm. There is no audible notification of the
location that is calling so the agency will not be able to identify the
address of the problem.
•
TEST YOUR WATERALARM: It is critical that you test your “call-
to” number as indicated in the section, “Testing your WaterAlarm” on
page 8.
D. Installing Batteries in the Motion Sensor:
1.
Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the screw at the bottom of the
Motion Sensor and lift the bottom of the back plate as shown in the
diagram on the previous page.
2.
Insert four, brand new Alkaline or Lithium AA sized batteries
following the diagram inside the battery compartment and according to
the diagram above. There will be a short beep when the last battery is
installed to indicate the batteries are inserted properly.
3.
Replace the back plate, clipping the top of the cover in place first and
then fasten the screw.
4.
Low Battery Indicator: When the red LED light on
the Motion Sensor is on, the batteries are low and
should be replaced. Replace ALL batteries with new
AA sized alkaline or lithium batteries.
5.
Remote Control Batteries: The Remote Control uses
three AG13 sized batteries. These are included with
the remote control. If the red LED on the Remote
Control does not light up, replace batteries.
