External Siren
Siren does not respond to Arming or Disarming
• Siren batteries are completely exhausted.
See instructions for changing batteries on page
22.
• Siren not learnt-in. If Siren produces a tamper
alarm when the cover is removed and Siren is OK,
learn-in the Siren. (see page 12)
• Siren out of range.
Siren produces a 3 second alarm when
disarmed
• There has been a previous alarm and there might
be an intruder still in the premises.
Siren produces a series of audible pips when
armed or disarmed
• If the Siren produces a series of pips when
arming
and disarming
, this indicates low batteries.
(Change the batteries section.)
• If the Siren produces a series of audible pips
only
when arming
, this indicates a tamper fault.
Check that the Siren cover is firmly secured and
the tamper spring on the back of the Siren is fully
depressed when in contact with the wall. If not use
suitable packing material to fill gap. (refer to page 8
for diagram)
Siren produces an interrupted tone when
sounding an alarm
• The Siren has low batteries. Change batteries with
new alkaline replacements. (see change batteries
section)

PIR Motion Detector
PIR does not respond to motion
• Previous motion has triggered the PIR sleep
timer and is preventing subsequent movement
detection. Arm system and vacate protected area
for at least 90 seconds before testing. By pressing
the learn/test button the PIR LED will light up and
detect motion for the first minute.
PIR/Motion Detector is slow to respond
• This is normal, the PIR Motion Detector has
sophisticated false alarm filtering that will filter out
random fluctuations and responds to genuine
motion across field of view, it is less sensitive
walking directly towards it.
PIR Motion Detector gives false alarms
• Check pets have no access to protected area.
• Check that the PIR Motion Detector is not pointed
at sources of heat or moving objects, e.g. fluttering
curtains.
• Check that PIR Motion Detector is not mounted
above convector heaters or pointing directly at
Windows.
PIR/Motion Detector LED flashes
• Batteries are low or the tamper switch is disturbed.
Check that the tamper switch spring is making
contact with the base. If the tamper switch
is OK, change batteries with new AA alkaline
replacements. (see page 22)
PIR Motion Detector does not respond to
movement
• Batteries are completely exhausted. Change
batteries with new AA alkaline replacements. (ssee
change batteries section)

Door/Window Contact
Door/Window Contact LED lights up
• Batteries are low or the tamper switch disturbed.
Check that the tamper switch spring is making
contact with the mounting surface. If the tamper
switch is OK, change the battery. (see change

Door/Window Contact does not respond to
opening when jumper is in test position
• Batteries are completely exhausted. Change the
battery. (see change batteries section)
• The magnet is too far away from the Door/Window
