4. Play Back your Personalized Alarm Message
The miniAlarm™ does not have a speaker. It has a beeper. Therefore, you cannot listen to your Personalized Alarm Message
directly on the miniAlarm™. To play back and listen to your Personalized Alarm Message, you must listen in on a phone
extension or call to the unit from a remote phone, like a cell phone or a neighbor’s phone. Figure 3 shows how to use a phone
extension in your home to listen to the personalized alarm message.
To play back the message, PRESS “5” on the miniAlarm™ keypad. Listen in on any phone in the same residence where the
miniAlarm™ is located as long as the miniAlarm™ and the phone extension are on the same line. After the message plays, the
miniAlarm™ automatically goes back into programming mode. During playback, you may hear the miniAlarm™ click twice.
5. Enter or Change Security Code
The security code is required to ARM and DISARM the miniAlarm™. Your security code may be any four digit number. The
default security code when you receive your miniAlarm™ is 9999.
NOTE: It is very important to create a NEW security code when you receive your miniAlarm™.
To enter or change your security code:
A. PRESS “6” on the miniAlarm™ keypad.
B. Enter your four digit number followed by the star “*” key.
6. Exit Programming Mode
To exit the Programming Mode, PRESS “9” on the miniAlarm™ keypad. The LED indicator light should go off.
PROGRAMMING SUMMARY:
You can test your miniAlarm™ to ensure you have entered the telephone numbers correctly and to verify the miniAlarm™ is compatible
with your local phone system and in-house phone lines. Due to the many different phone companies and phone line differences, there
may be some instances where the miniAlarm™ cannot operate properly.
To test the miniAlarm, initiate a PANIC EMERGENCY by pressing the pound “#” key three or more times in a row. This feature is
described in more detail on page 5. The miniAlarm™ will begin dialing the three phone numbers. The audible alarm will sound.
After you have verified the unit is dialing the numbers correctly, DISARM your miniAlarm™ by entering your four digit security code
followed by the star key.
This would be an extension phone, or
second phone in the home where the
miniAlarm™ is located.
OPTION 1:
One option to listen to your
Personalized Alarm Message
is to listen in on an extension
phone, or second phone in
the same residence where
the miniAlarm is located.
The miniAlarm™ would be plugged
into another wall jack in the same
residence, and on the same phone line
as the extension.
OPTION 2:
Another option is to use a “splitter” that allows you to
plug in both a phone and the miniAlarm™ into the
same phone jack.
