Keyfob remote control accessory
Can be used outside the premises and
kept on your keyring.
Location planning
Operating range
All devices must be within 30 metres of the siren unit and must
not be mounted on or near large metal objects. Avoid obvious
sources of electrical interference such as fridges and microwave
ovens.
Tamper switches
When mounting devices ensure that any tamper switches close
fully. On uneven surfaces it may be necessary to place packing
behind the switch for reliable operation.

Work out the best places to locate the devices for maximum protection. Having chosen the
locations do not mount at this stage.
Smoke detector
• Mount in the middle of the ceiling at the
top of a stairwell, or on the centre of
hallway ceilings where smoke would most
likely be detected.
• Do not mount in corners or above cooking
appliances and heaters.
• Install additional detectors if there are
closed doors preventing smoke from
reaching detectors.
Siren
Choose a position on an external wall where the
siren would be most prominent. Mount as high
as possible, out of easy reach. (Round shaped siren shown)
Keypad remote control
• The keypad should be sited next to the main point of entry/
exit so that the system can be disarmed/armed within 20
seconds of entering/leaving the premises.
• Ensure that the keypad is not visible from the outside of the
premises.
• Mount at chest height for ease of use.
• Designed for indoor use only.
Help button accessory
The help button provides extra protection
for you and your family. When help is
needed the button can activate your alarm
immediately - even when the system is
disarmed.
• Mount on bedroom wall or by the front
door
• Not clearly visible to an intruder
• Easily accessible
• Out of reach of children
Extend the system
Extend the system in the future to increase your security or as
your needs change.
For example, add extra PIR detectors in bedrooms and extra
door/window contacts.
PIR movement detectors
• Mount in a position such that an intruder would normally move
across a PIRs field of view.
• Height should be between 1.7 and 2.3 metres above floor level.
• Location in a corner will ensure wider room coverage.
• Do not mount a PIR where its field of view will be obstructed e.g.
by curtains, ornaments etc.
• Do not point directly at sources of heat e.g. fires or boilers, and do
not position directly above radiators.
• Avoid mounting a PIR directly facing a window.
• Do not point a PIR at a door protected by a door/window contact.

Door/Window contacts
Use one door/window contact on a door
that is used as the main point of entry and
exit, usually your front door. The other
door/window contact can be used to
protect
another entry point such as a rear door.
• Mount as high as possible.
• Do not aim a PIR at this door or window.
