12. Open the door/window to remove the Magnet from
the Detector.
As the Magnet is moved away from the Detector the
LED indicator will illuminate for approximately 1 second
to show that the Detector has been triggered and a
signal is being transmitted.
Note: It does not matter if the LED indicator illuminates
as the Magnet is brought towards the Detector.
13. Ret the battery cover.
14. Press to return to the top level menu of
TEST MODE.
IMPORTANT: With the battery cover tted the LED
indicator will not ash when the door/window is
opened, (unless the battery is low).
EXTERNAL SOLAR SIREN
The Siren is encapsulated within a tough polycarbonate
housing that also provides full protection against
adverse weather conditions.
An LED indicator unit is built into the siren to act as
a visible deterrent and indication that the system is
active. The LEDs will slowly and alternately ash
whether the system is Armed or Disarmed. When the
alarm triggers the LEDs will ash rapidly together.
An integral tamper switch provides additional security
protection to the Siren and will immediately trigger an
alarm should any unauthorised attempt be made to
interfere with and remove the siren cover, (unless the
Siren is in Service Mode).
The Siren is powered by a rechargeable sealed lead
acid battery. A solar panel mounted on the top of the
housing charges the battery during daylight hours.
During darkness, only a small amount of energy is
required to operate the Siren unit. A 9V Alkaline PP3
battery is supplied to boost the initial power to the
unit when the system is rst activated until the solar
panel charges the main battery. (The PP3 battery is
only designed to last for a short period until the main
rechargeable battery has obtained sufcient charge).
The Siren unit incorporates the installation’s Jamming
Detection system which will (if activated) generate an
alarm if any attempt is made to continuously jam the
radio channel used for the system.
POSITIONING THE SOLAR SIREN
The Siren should be located as high as possible in a
prominent position on an external wall so that it can be
easily seen and heard. The Siren should be mounted
on a sound at surface so that the rear tamper switch is
not activated when mounted.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the tamper switch does
not fall into the recess between brick courses as
this could prevent the switch from closing and
give a permanent tamper signal.
In order to provide the maximum amount of daylight to
the solar panel, the Siren should ideally be mounted on
a south facing wall. However, an easterly or westerly
position will sufce.
Mounting the device on a north facing wall should be
avoided as this could mean that during the short dark
days of winter months the solar panel may not receive
sufcient daylight in order to maintain the battery
charge at acceptable levels.
Shadows cast by neighbouring walls, trees and roof
overhangs should also be avoided. If the Siren is to
be mounted below the eaves, it should be positioned
a distance of at least twice the width of the eaves
overhang below the eaves. Remember that in winter
the sun is lower in the sky and you should avoid winter
shadows where possible.
The Siren contains a sophisticated radio receiver.
However, reception of radio signals can be affected by
the presence of metallic objects within the vicinity of
the Siren. It is therefore important to mount the Siren a
minimum distance of 1 metre away from any external or
internal metalwork, (i.e. drainpipes, gutters, radiators,
mirrors etc.). Be especially aware of radiators mounted
on the inside wall behind possible locations for the
Siren.
Ensure that the position selected for the Siren is within
effective range of the Control Panel.
