This unit provides a convenient RF link testing to ensure good RF
transmission without setting off the alarm.
First press the yellow button to reset the unit. Hit the ? button and
hold for a couple of seconds. The unit will first sound one beep or five
consecutive beeps. This will depend on whether the unit sis set on ON or
OFF. Continue to hold this ? button for three seconds until you hear
three consecutive beeps. The unit will send out a RF alarm signal to the
receiver inside the house without setting itself off.
The receiver inside the house should sound within ten seconds after the
three consecutive beeps. If the receiver does not ring, move the receiver
to another location and check the installation again. Ensure all devices
are set to the same channel. (Refer to channel A/B select of both pool
side alarm transmitter and receiver).
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Remember to check the RF link periodically to ensure good RF
transmission. If the RF signal is weak, replace the battery in the pool
side alarm with a new one.
RF signals can be transmitted through a solid wall; however, it is possible
that this may weaken the RF signal. To avoid this, it is important to
place the receiver in a straight line of sight to the transmitter whenever
possible.
Battery level affects RF signal strength. A weak battery in the pool side
alarm Transmitter will give a weak RF signal out.
RF (radio frequency) SIGNAL LINK TESTING
The pool side alarm RF (radio frequency) signal can be transmitted from
the transmitter to the receiver inside the house by two different
channels, (A or B). All units are preset at channel A in the factory;
however, if your alarm system interferes with your neighbor’s alarm
system, you may have to change your alarm unit to channel B.
The pool side alarm unit has a built-in channel select switch. This is
located inside the battery compartment. Follow these instructions to
change the channel.
1. Open the battery door. You can see an A/B slide switch located at
the left hand side of the battery compartment.
2. Use a screw driver to push the switch handle from A to B. Make sure
to do the same channel adjustment on ALL your alarm devices, including
the receiver.
