STEP 4: CHECK AND TEST
To make sure that the bell box functions correctly it is advisable to test the bell box.
Turn the alarm system on by using your remote control (red button) and trigger an alarm with a
motion detector or door/window sensor. When the bell box emits sound and/or light signals the bell
box has been installed correctly.
Please note!
When the tamper switch is still deactivated, the bell box will not react. When all LED
indicators flash 3 times when the alarm is turned on, the tamper switch has not been placed
correctly.
Congratulations! The installation is complete.
MAINTENANCE
Batteries
The bell box is powered by four 1,5V D alkaline batteries. Depending on use, the average life of the
battery is 2-4 years. The bell box itself will indicate when the battery is low. When the battery has
power left for about one month you will receive the following warnings:
1.
When the alarm system is turned on the bell box beeps five times and all LED indicators flash
three times. When the alarm system is turned off the bell box beeps five times and all LED
indicators will flash in sequence twice (from left to right and back).
2.
In your Egardia account you will see the message "Battery low level" under the tab "Alarm
history".
3.
