Step 4 
Plug in the Base Unit (Figures 5a/b) 

During normal operation, your Base Unit runs on 
electrical power.  
The power cord is looped around a bracket segment 
to provide strain relief against inadvertent pulling 
and disconnection of the power cord. 

1. 

Loop the power cord around the bracket segment 
as shown in figure 5a. 

 

2.

 Insert the small plug on the power cord into the 

"AC" connector on the Base Unit (see Figure 5b). 

3.

 Connect the AC adapter into a nearby electrical 

outlet. DO NOT USE AN OUTLET CONTROLLED 
BY A WALL SWITCH. 

When the panel is not installed all three LEDs light 
(AMBER CLASSIC X only) to indicate this status. 
Audio prompts announce AC, Telco, or battery 
problem, in the event of such a problem.

 

Caution:

 When the plug is removed the unit is 

disconnected from the mains supply and will run on 
the battery pack for a period of up to 24 hours or 
until the plug is reconnected.

 

When electrical power is supplied to the AMBER 
CLASSIC X, the green light on the front panel 
illuminates. 

Step 5 

Base Unit is now connecting you to 

the Monitoring Center 

After installation, a Monitoring Center representative 
will begin speaking to you.  
When your Monitoring Center representative answers, 
you can hear them talking to you through the Base 
Unit. You can talk to the representative by speaking 
out loud. You do not need to use the phone. 
The Monitoring Center representative will guide you 
through the rest of the system setup.
