Power supply

The alarm unit can be powered using either the supplied adapter or with batteries. This makes it suitable for use at locations without electrical outlets nearby.

To use with supplied adapter: Connect the adapter, see (a).
To use with batteries: Open the battery compartment see (b) and insert 8 x 1.5 V DC AA batteries. Attention: Remove the batteries if you will not be using the alarm unit for an extended period of time.

Setting the detection range
Open the battery cover of the alarm unit and use the switch to experimentally adjust the range of the radar sensor:

HI
– < 6 m. from the front of the alarm unit
– 9-16 m. from the back of the alarm unit
MID
– < 4 m. from the front of the alarm unit
– 6-9 m from the back of the alarm unit
LOW
– < 2 m. from the front of the alarm unit
– 3-6 m from the back of the alarm unit

Switching on the alarm

Front
When the alarm unit is powered, the led POWER will light up.
To activate or deactivate the alarm, press the On/Off button at the top of the alarm unit. When the alarm is activated, the led ARM will light up.
To change the alarm signal, press the Select button.
Use the Vol + and Vol – buttons to change the alarm volume.
After switching the alarm unit to alarm mode, it takes about 15 seconds for the radar sensor to detect movement. This delay allows you to leave the room without triggering the alarm unit.

– Barking dog: Stops approx. 20 seconds after the last motion detection
– Police alarm: Stops approx. 50 seconds after the last motion detection
– Doorbell: Stops immediately after the last motion detection
To deactivate the alarm, press the On/Off button once. The led ARM will turn off. Depending on the selected alarm, the alarm unit will stop alarming a few seconds later.
– Barking dog: Stops approx. 20 seconds after pressing the On/Off button.
– Police alarm: Stops approx. 50 seconds after pressing the On/Off button.
– Doorbell : Stops immediately after pressing the On/Off button.
