Garage Door Sensor F.A.Q.’S

Q.

  I bought a new Sensor and the Control Center will not 

recognize it. Why?

A. 

 First, make sure that the yellow battery isolation tape 

has been removed and that the battery is new. Second, 

ensure the battery is inserted into the Sensor according 

to po/-) markings.  Third, confirm that the Sensor 

has been correctly assigned to a Zone.

Q.

  I put the Sensor on Zone 4 and it will not set off the 

alarm. Why?

A. 

 Zone 4 is a Dedicated Alert Zone and is designed to 

monitor Sensors in this Zone.  It will only issue an alert 

(LED will flash, continuous beeping will be heard). Sensors 

in Zone 4 will not set off the alarm.  Use Zone 4 for water 

Sensors, garage doors, gates, sheds or other areas 

that you want to monitor (i.e. areas that you want to be 

alerted if there is a problem, but do not want the alarm 

to sound).

Q.

  I erased a Sensor from a Zone and now all of my 

other Sensors in that Zone will not work.  Why?

A.

  The system can only erase entire Zones.  You will need 

to add the other Sensors back in that Zone to the  

Control Center again.
