[. . . ] Initializing Door/Window Sensors Pry the two halves of the Door/Window Sensor apart and install 2 AAA alkaline batteries inside. Press and hold the button inside the Sensor for 3-4 seconds and then release it. This initializes the Sensor and picks a random code that is used when it is registered with the Console. [. . . ] · To protect two doors or windows close to each other, use the Door/Window Sensor with an additional set of magnetic switch contacts as show in the diagrams above. · Set the DELAY slide switch to MIN (to the right) to always trigger the alarm instantly (for windows), or to MAX (to the left) to trigger the alarm after a preset entry delay when the system is armed in DELAY mode (for doors). The numbers 1 ­ 32 in the display refer to up to 32 "zones. " These represent the Door/Window Sensors (and/or Motion Detectors) you install. The numbers show open zones, problem zones and bypassed zones by being displayed as steady on (door or window open), slow flash (there's a problem with that zone) or fast flash (that zone has been bypassed). Attempting to arm with an open or problem zone makes the Console beep continuously and the Console will display in words on the display what the cause is, but only for one zone at a time. Bypassing that zone (by pressing the Clear button) moves on to the next problem zone, if there is one. Now move the magnet away from the Door/Window Sensor. The Console acknowledges that it has been registered with a chime and by displaying ZONE 1 SET. The display increments to ZONE 2 SET, etc. , as you install more Door Window Sensors. If you connected a second magnetic switch to the contacts on the sensor (as shown on the next page) you can move its magnet away to install the second magnetic switch as a separate zone (otherwise it will be the same zone). Battery Replacement If a zone has not reported in during the last four hours, the display will show PROBLEM. As long as the batteries have not completely failed they can be replaced with fresh batteries without the need to reinstall the sensor. After removing the old batteries fresh batteries must be fitted within 30 seconds to ensure that the security code is retained. Testing the Door/Window Sensor Once the batteries have been replaced, the Door/Window Sensor should be tested as follows: · Make sure the system is NOT armed. The Console chimes to acknowledge and the zone # is displayed on the display. You will need to reinstall the Motion Detector following the directions in this instruction sheet.
