The Remote Control

Your Wireless Alarm system comes with a keychain-sized remote control. In many 
ways,  the  remote  control  is  the  most  powerful  and  important  device  in  your 
security system – essentially, the electronic key. Treat it like you would any other 
key - keeping it on your keychain typically helps.
Using  the  remote  control,  you  can  arm  and  disarm  the  system  (in  either  Home 
Mode or Out Mode) from anywhere in range of the wireless signal. 

Disarm: 

Used to disarm the Wireless Alarm System, whichever mode it is in.

Arm Out Mode: 

Selects and arms Out Mode.

Arm Home Mode: 

Selects and arms Home Mode.

Alarm Button: 

Trigger the alarm immediately - this can be used as a panic button or 

to test the siren is in working order. Alternately, when arming the system, pressing this 
button will bypass the thirty second arming delay (as indicated by the applicable Mode 
LED on the Wireless Control Panel flashing) and arm the system immediately.

Keyguard:

 A small sliding tab which can be placed to prevent accidental arming 

or disarming of your alarm system when being carried in a pocket or bag.

Pairing the Remote Controls

The remote controls which came with your Wireless Alarm Kit should already be 
paired with your Wireless Control Panel. If they don’t seem to work right away, or 
you accidentally unpair them (this can happen whilst assigning sensors to zones) 
then follow this quick procedure to re-pair the remote controls:

Press the Zone Set button once briefly, then press and hold it until a long beep 

• 

is heard.
Press any key on the remote control you want to pair. The Wireless Control 

• 

Panel will beep to confirm that it has detected the signal from the remote.
Press the Zone Button briefly to exit pairing mode.

• 

The remote 

control with the 

keyguard closed.
