System Programming
When the unit is plugged into the AC adapter and the 9V battery is installed for the first time, a 10-digit display will appear on the
LCD screen. This LCD screen and keypad are used to program several of the functions of your alarm, including:
Setting your password
Setting the time and date
Programming the telephone numbers to be called automatically
Deleting or changing a telephone number to be called
Turning the local siren ON or OFF
Turning the automatic calling feature ON or OFF
Setting the number of calling cycles
Panic button operation
NOTE:
When programming any of the alarm functions, if you do not press a key within 10
seconds, the 10-digit display will reappear and you will need to start the setting process over
for that particular function.
1. Setting Your Password
It is recommended that the first thing you do is set your password. This is because entering your password is the first step
taken to change any of the alarm settings and to program outgoing telephone numbers: To set your password:
1.
Enter the factory pre-set password of 0-0-0 on the keypad
2.
Press the PROG button once
3.
The word PASSWORD will flash on the top of the screen
4.
Press the ARM/DISARM button to confirm that you want to set your password
5.
Enter your new password on the keypad (up to 6 numbers)
6.
Press the ARM/DISARM button to confirm your password.
7.
Press the PROG button seven times to exit the password set-up mode
8.
The 10-digit display (Date / Time) will reappear on the “LCD Home Screen”
Once you are finished setting your password, you can now program any of the alarm settings separately, they do not have to be
completed in any particular order. Once you enter your password and press the PROG button once, you will enter
“Programming Mode”
. You will see the different words or icons of the various programmable alarm settings across the screen:
PASSWORD
MEMORY
CYCLE
ENTRY
TIME
While in
“Programming Mode”
, pressing the PROG button allows you to cycle through each setting word / icon, allowing you to
choose which alarm setting to customize. The 1
st
option, PASSWORD, will always start blinking when you enter “Programming
Mode”. Each time you press the PROG button, you will see each sequential word or icon start blinking, indicating you can
customize the blinking alarm setting. While in “Programming Mode”, once you cycle through all the options (pressing PROG
button 7 times) it will automatically exit “Programming Mode” and return to the “LCD Home Screen”. The “LCD Home Screen” is
simply the LCD display showing the date and time in a 10-digit format.
The LCD Home Screen DATE / TIME display format is as follows:
YEAR – MONTH – DAY
HOUR – MINUTES (military)
The ARM/DISARM button is important during “Programming Mode”. It will usually function as a ‘select’ or ‘enter’ button.
Pressing the ARM/DISARM button while any of the words or icons are blinking will allow you to ‘select’ that setting to customize.
Referring above to step 1: Setting Your Password, the ARM/DISARM button was pressed to enter the PASSWORD setting. The
ARM/DISARM button was pressed again to ‘save’ the new password.
2. Setting the Time and Date (
This is optional. The freeze monitor will still function if you don't set the time and date)
1.
Enter your password on the keypad
2.
Press the PROG button seven times until the word TIME on the display starts blinking
3.
Press the ARM/DISARM button to confirm that you want to set the TIME (and date)
4.
The first two digits will flash (This is the year.)
5.
Press the UP or DOWN buttons until the correct year appears.

Press the ARM/DISARM button again. The next two digits will flash. (This is the month.)
