 USER’S GUIDE 

Remote setup

  

1. 

Enter all the desired programming information into 

the HHCPC.  

2. 

Connect to the remote panel via a dial-up modem 

attached to the PC. 

Step 4 

Connect Power to AMBER SELECT / 

AMBER SELECT

X

 

(Fig. 3)

 

During normal operation, your AMBER SELECT / 
AMBER SELECT

X

 runs on electrical power. 

1.

 Insert the plug on the power cord into the "AC" 

connector on the AMBER SELECT / AMBER 
SELECT

X

2. 

Insert the safety catch tab horizontally into the hole to 
the right of the power cord plug, as shown in Figure 
3a. 

3.

  Turn the safety catch screw, observing the polarity of 

the arrow in Figure 3a, until facing the other hole. Then 
secure the screw. 

4.

  Connect the AC/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 SELECT

X

) 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 
SELECT

X

, the green light on the front panel illuminates. 

Step 5 

The Unit is now connecting you to 

the Monitoring Center 

After you complete the steps above your AMBER 
SELECT / AMBER SELECT

X

 will automatically call your 

Central Station provided that your unit was programmed 
to report to Central Station (and not to private 
telephones). The central station operator will begin a 
two-way voice session. Once this feature has been 
tested, the operator must disconnect by pressing DTMF 
'99'.

 

Note: 

Certain remote areas of your residence may lie 

outside the reception range of the AMBER SELECT / 
AMBER SELECT

X

, resulting in the unit not being able 

to receive transmissions directly. In this case, a 
Repeater (MCX-600PERS) can be used to increase the 
AMBER SELECT / AMBER SELECT

X

 reception range. 

For further details, please contact the company from 
where the products were purchased.

 

 

MOUNTING THE UNIT  

The Unit can be located on a table, or on a wall. In both 
cases the Unit should be near an electrical outlet and 
phone line.
