when all surfaces are clean and dry. Mounting screws are in the bottom of the box if homeowners
want a more permanent attachment.

Your system has many capabilities
that may be off or unusable at installation. Please contact Comtronics if you have any
questions on these great features.
-
Your controller has a battery backup
but must remain plugged in to charge and power the device. Do not plug in to a GFI
outlet or ‘switch controlled’ outlet.
-
If you install a sensor in a different area than what was indicated
, please call Comtronics to rename your device location.
-
Contacts and sensors have a range that varies but should work within 100 feet
of the Lynx 5200 panel. Some
construction types, or obstructions, can reduce that distance.
-
Motion sensors are pet resistant but false alarms may still occur.
Call Comtronics if you need help with your sensors.
