TESTING YOUR SYSTEM
Before you learn how to use your security system, test to make sure that
the Door/Window Sensors and the Keychain Transmitter are communicat-
ing with the Audio Alarm.
TESTING THE DOOR/WINDOW SENSORS
Turn on the Audio Alarm, (slide the button on
the bottom of the unit to “ON”), allow 30 seconds
for the Audio Alarm to warm up. The red “ON”
light will appear. (when testing, do not turn the
“ARM” light on or the siren will sound.)
1. Open the door or window that has the sensor
on it.
2. The Audio Alarm will beep and the “ON” light
will flash once, meaning the Audio Alarm has
accepted the signal from the Door/Window
Sensor. If the unit didn’t beep, it is not communi-
cating with the sensor. Relocate the Magnet
closer to the Magnetic Switch or the Door/
Window Sensor. It may need to be programmed
to communicate with the Audio Alarm, (see
Program Sensors and Transmitters)
3. Repeat the above 2 steps with the other door or window with the sensor.
TESTING THE KEYCHAIN TRANSMITTER
Turn on the Audio Alarm so that only the
“ON” light appears. Press button 1, 2 or 3
on the Keychain Transmitter, and if the Key-
chain Transmitter is communicating with the
Audio Alarm, the "ON" light will flash once.
The "ARM" light will come on if you press button
1.The Audio Alarm may beep once depending
if you have the sound turned on. Button 2
activates and deactivates the sound. If the
"ON" light does not flash, you must program
the Keychain Transmitter to communicate
with the Audio Alarm. (See Program Sensors
and Transmitters)
