sequence and replay the recorded alarm messages for
the set ‘Play Time’. The recipient can acknowledge
the message by pressing the button on their
telephone keypad. If the call is unanswered or an
acknowledgement signal is not received then the next
active number in the dialing sequence will be called.
The dialler will continue calling each number in turn until
either all numbers in the sequence have been dialed the
set number of times or the dialing sequence is cancelled
by an acknowledged signal from the recipient.
Jamming Detection
In order to detect any attempts to illegally jam the
radio channel used by your alarm system, a special
jamming detection function is incorporated into the
Control Panel and also on some Solar Siren models. If
this feature is enabled, and the radio channel is
jammed continuously for 30 seconds, when the
system is armed, the Solar Siren will emit a pre-alarm
series of rapid bleeps for 5 seconds. If the jamming
continues for a further 10 seconds or more a full alarm
condition will occur. In addition if the system is
jammed for more than three periods of 10 seconds in
a 5 minute interval, this will also generate a Full Alarm
condition. The jamming detection features in the
Control Panel and Solar Siren operate independently.
The Jamming Detection circuit is designed to
permanently scan for jamming signals. However, it is
possible that it may detect other local radio
interference operating legally or illegally on the same
frequency. If you are planning to operate the Jamming
Detection feature we recommend that you wait at least
30 days before activating this feature, this will allow
time for you to become familiar with the operation of
your system.
Battery Monitoring
All devices powered by non-rechargeable batteries
incorporate a battery level monitoring feature which
warns when the battery status is low.
In addition the Control Panel will also indicate a low
battery status on any PIR Detector or Magnetic
Contact Detector on the System.
Batteries on any device indicating a low battery status
must be replaced immediately.
System House Code
In order to prevent any unauthorized attempt to
operate or disarm your system, you must set your
system to accept radio signals only from your own
devices. This is done by setting a series of eight
miniature (DIP) switches in all devices (except the
Control Panel) to the same ON / OFF combination (the
House Code) selected by the user/installer. The
Control Panel is then programmed to operate only
with devices set to this House Code.
All Detectors and Remote Control Unit(s) must be set
with the same House Code in order for the system to
operate correctly.
Inside the Siren, Detectors and Remote Control Unit is
a series of 8 DIP switches.
The House Code is set by moving each of the 8
switches in each device to the same randomly
selected ON / OFF sequence. When setting the DIP
switches, ensure that each switch ‘clicks’ fully into
position. Use the tip of a ballpoint pen or a small
screwdriver to move each switch in turn.
Note: It is recommended that the system House Code
is always reset to a code other than the factory default.
