System components
The system can monitor up to 40 sensors and may use any of the devices listed
in Table 1
Table 1: Supported devices
Device Description
Door/window
sensor (60-670) For intrusion protection, install door/window sensors on all ground-floor
doors and windows. At a minimum, install them in the following locations:
•
All easily accessible exterior doors and windows.
• Interior doors leading into the garage.
• Doors to areas containing valuables such as cabinets and closets.
Indoor motion
sensor (60-639) Indoor motion sensors are ideal whenever it is not practical to install
door/window sensors on every opening. Identify areas where an intruder is
likely to walk through. Large areas in an open floor plan, downstairs family
rooms, and hallways are typical locations for indoor motion sensors. For
installations with pets, use the SAW Pet Immune PIR (60-807).
Outdoor motion
sensor (60-639) Use outdoor motion sensors to detect motion in a protected outdoor area.
Detected motion in this protected area can sound chimes or turn on outside
lights.
X10 module When the panel is powered using the line carrier power transformer, the
system can work with any of the following modules:
• X10 lamp module (13-403)
• X10 appliance module (13-402)
• X10 power horn/remote siren module (13-398)
Freeze sensor (60-
742) Freeze sensors detect low temperature conditions which may indicate a
furnace failure. The sensor contains a bimetallic thermal switch connected
to the built-in transmitter. The sensor transmits an alarm signal to the panel
when the surrounding temperature drops to about 41°F (5°C). When the
temperature rises to 50°F (10°C), the sensor transmits a restore signal.
Water sensor (60-
744) Water sensors detect a water leak/rising water. The detector is connected to
the sensor by an 8-foot (2.4-meter) cable. Water that reaches both detector
contact points activates the sensor, causing it to transmit an alarm signal.
Smoke sensor (TX-
6010-01) Smoke sensors provide fire protection by causing an alarm to sound
throughout the house. You can add smoke sensors near sleeping areas and
on every floor of the house. Avoid areas that could have some smoke or
exhaust such as attics, kitchens, above fireplaces, dusty locations, garages,
and areas with temperature extremes. In these areas you may want to
install Rate-of-Rise sensors to detect extreme temperature changes.
Emergency planning on page 15 and the instructions packaged with the
smoke sensor for complete placement information.
