BATTERY MAINTENANCE

MOTION SENSOR BATTERY

The Motion Sensor operates on a 9 volt alkaline battery accessible beneath a
sliding panel on the bottom of the unit. All remote sensors come with the battery
already installed. Disarm the Control Panel before replacing all batteries.

When the battery level is low, the Motion Sensor will emit a long beep (approx. 3
seconds) when motion is detected. This indicates you should replace the 9V battery .

To replace the Motion Sensor battery:

1. Take the Motion Sensor down from the wall.
2. Slide off the battery cover.
3. Take the old battery out of the battery compartment.
4. Disconnect the old battery from the connector wire.
5. Connect the new battery to the connector wire.
6. Put the new battery into the battery compartment.
7. Slide the battery compartment back on.
8. Set the switch on the side of the Motion Sensor to "ON".
9. Put the unit back on the wall.

Switch unit to the “off” position when not in use for long periods of time to extend
battery life.

AC Adapter (Optional)

An optional AC adapter can be plugged in to the Motion Sensor as a regular power
source. The output voltage of this optional AC adapter should be at 9V under nor-
mal operating condition, the Motion Sensor will not consume the power of the 9V
battery. However, we recommend users should still install the 9V
battery as a back up power supply in case of a power failure.

DOOR/WINDOW SENSOR BATTERY

Each door/window sensor operates on a 12 volt alkaline bat-
tery that is inside the transmitter. The sensors come with the
batteries already installed.

To replace the battery:

1. Push on the clip at the bottom of the transmitter case

with a sharp object (such as a paper clip or pen knife)
and pull it away from the backplate.

2. Pry out the old battery from one end.

3. Push the new battery back into place. A diagram be-

side the battery well indicates which end is positive
and which is negative.

4. Snap the transmitter back onto the backplate.

BATTERY MAINTENANCE

The SC-100 Security System comes with 5 batteries that at some point you
may have to replace:

1

9 volt alkaline battery for the Control Panel

1

9 volt alkaline battery for the Motion Sensor

2

12 volt alkaline batteries for the 2 Door/Window Sensors

1

12 volt alkaline battery for the Keychain Transmitter

Recommendation: Test you system periodically to ensure that all batteries
are working.

CONTROL PANEL BATTERY

The Control Panel comes equipped with a backup battery in case the
electrical power is interrupted for any reason.

When the Control Panel battery is low, the LOBATT. light goes on. Also,
when the LOBATT. light is on and if you press any key on the keypad, 10
beeps warn you that the battery needs to be changed.

To replace the Control Panel backup battery:

1. Disarm the unit.

2. Open the Control Panel case by pressing
down on the two tabs on the top edge and
pull the front forward.

3. Disconnect the old battery.

4. Connect the new battery.

5. Close the Control Panel.

Note: To guard against sabotage, the Control Panel is equipped with an emer-
gency switch that activates the alarm instantly when the case is opened.
Make sure that the unit is disarmed when you open the case or you will
activate the alarm.

The battery life, (9 volt alkaline battery), is approximately two years if used
only for backup.

Note: If the AC adapter is disconnected while the battery is replaced, the
security system will erase all the modifications that have been made and
return to the factory default. Also, your MPIN will return to 000.
