Set-up
Package content
• 1 x Main unit
• 1 x Remote keyfob (battery pre-fitted)
• 1 x 6V DC adaptor
• 1 x Necklace holder for keyfob
• 1 x Telephone cable
• 1 x Telephone splitter
Connection
Remove all components from packaging. Open
the cover on back of the main unit and plug in one
end of the supplied telephone cable. Connect
the other end into the supplied telephone splitter.
Remove the existing telephone cable from the wall
outlet and plug into the telephone splitter. Then
plug the telephone splitter into the telephone wall
outlet. Connect the power adaptor to the main unit
and plug into the mains. Insert optional 4 x AAA
batteries if back-up power is required for the main
unit.
Programming the keyfob(s)
Turn the system ON when you are ready to proceed
with the set-up. The red light will then flash for 15
seconds while initialising. Afterwards, the light will
remain red for 1 minute, during which time you can
program or ‘learn in’ your keyfob(s) (maximum of 3).
Now press the ‘Yale’ button on your keyfob once.
Your system will respond with a beep to indicate
that ‘learning’ is successful. Allow 3 seconds before
pressing further keyfobs for ‘learning in’.
If the red light goes out, the main unit is no longer in
‘learn’ mode. In order to return to ‘learn’ mode, turn
the main unit OFF and then back ON again. Wait
for the static red light and continue your ‘learning’
process.
Setting contact telephone numbers
After the red light goes out you can program up to 3
telephone numbers - landline or mobile. First, press
the ‘handset and star’ button, followed by button 1
(this will be the first contact number used by the
system). Then key in the full telephone number
including the area code. Finally, press the ‘handset
and star’ button again to finish the process. Repeat
this process for each of your remaining 2 contact
numbers, using buttons 2 and 3 accordingly. If you
make a mistake, these numbers can be overwritten,
using the same process.
Recording your voice message
You can now record your voice message, which
can be up to 10 seconds long. This is the message
that the system will play if triggered. Try to ensure
that the message is as detailed as possible.
To record the message, press and hold the
‘microphone’ button and the ‘hash’ button together
and speak clearly into the main unit. When you
have finished recording, release the buttons.
To play back your message, press the ‘play’ button.
If you want to re-record your message, repeat the
process above.
