You can also mount your SafeScout monitoring unit using an optional
corner bracket that you can buy from Sentinel Vision to position it in the
corner of a room. Combine the U-shaped bracket with the corner bracket
(available from Sentinel Vision) to position your SafeScout correctly.
(See below.)

The SafeScout system comes with a 14-foot male-to-male RJ11
telephone connection cord. This meets the location needs of most
installations. If you require a longer telephone connection cord to your
SafeScout, you can purchase a phone extension cord at most electronic or
home improvement stores.

Pet Immunity
The SafeScout system has a pet immunity technology that does not
recognize pets smaller than 30 lbs. For this feature to work properly, your
SafeScout monitoring unit must be placed at a height of five (5) feet from
the ground on a level surface. Position your SafeScout in a location that
pets cannot jump on or up next to. (A small cat can look big when it sits
directly in front of a camera.)
Test this with your pet in the walk test mode. If your pet trips the system,
it is best to find a different location for the SafeScout monitoring unit so
your pet will not trip the SafeScout system when it is armed.
System Test
You can test your system and the related communications at any time by
simply pushing the test button on the back of your SafeScout monitoring
unit. The SafeScout system will conduct a test by capturing one image,
recording sound and sending the test alert only to the registered owner.
For maintenance purposes and to ensure your SafeScout system is
functioning properly it is recommended that a system test be conducted
once a month.
Walk Test
The SafeScout system has a walk test feature, which allows a user to test
the protection area by walking through the area to determine the precise
detection zone. To enable this feature, the SafeScout monitoring unit
must be plugged in and disarmed. Enter this sequence on the SafeScout
monitoring unit keypad: “92558*” (this sequence must be entered only
on the SafeScout monitoring unit keypad for this feature to work).
This walk test feature will last a maximum of 10 minutes. During this
time, as you walk through the detection area, the monitoring unit will
sound four (4) beeps within approximately one half second of detection
each time the motion detector is tripped. As you walk test, stop for five
(5) seconds after each beep so your SafeScout system has time to reset.
To disable the walk test mode, just enter the code again (92558*). Your
SafeScout system will immediately transition back to its disarmed state.
