Proper use

The wireless Alarm System 3000 Set F3 consists of the indoor siren 3000IS with mains adapter, a wireless-PIR-detector 3000P, a wireless door/window contact 3000M, and two remote controls 3000R.
The wireless PIR detector serves to monitor interior rooms. It detects the movement of warm objects (eg. persons) day and night. Upon detection, it sends a wireless signal to the siren.
The wireless door/window contact serves to monitor doors and windows. When a monitored door or window is opened the unit sends a wireless signal to the siren.
The siren receives the alarm signals from the detectors and if it is armed the siren warns acoustically and visually (flashes).
The system is armed and disarmed using the remote control 3000R. An alarm can be manually activated by pressing the panic button.
It is possible to partially arm the system. In this case, certain detectors can be deactivated when the dwelling is occupied. Detectors in the entrance/exit area can operate with a delay, in order to allow comfortable operation of the system.
The system can be extended by adding optional accessories. Up to 5 remote controls, 3000R, and a total of 20 detectors (3000P or 3000M) can be enrolled in the siren.
The 3000 Set F3 can be combined with the GSM-Wireless alarm system 3000 Set F4.

Planning the system

Consider first which are the vulnerable areas to be monitored. Windows and doors can be monitored using the door/window contact, in particular, the main entrance door should be monitored.
PIR detectors can monitor entire rooms, but cannot be used when the room is occupied. They are also sensitive to pets and warm air currents. A typical system consists of a mixture of door/window contacts and PIR-detectors

Part arming

The system can be planned so that:

  1. all detectors are activated when the system is armed or
  2. that some of the detectors are set so that they are activated when the system is fully armed, but not when the system is part armed

The part arm function is recommended when monitoring is required for an occupied dwelling. In this case, the PIR detectors must be set in Home mode. When the dwelling is occupied, the system should be part armed (the detectors set in Home mode are not active). When the dwelling is unoccupied, fully arm the system (all detectors are active).

Entry/Exit delay

In order to arm the system from within the dwelling before leaving, or to disarm the system after entering, without causing an immediate alarm, set the detectors which monitor the entrance/exit area to delay. These detectors will not signal an alarm during the exit delay period (15 or 30 seconds selectable). Similarly, if these detectors make a detection when the system is armed, they will trigger an entrance delay (15 or 30 seconds selectable) before causing an alarm. The delay period is indicated by the beeping of the siren.
The delay period can be set on the siren for 0, 15, or 30 seconds. If 0 seconds is selected the detectors are set for the delay, which will cause an immediate alarm.
Tip: To reduce false alarms, it is recommended to set the detectors in the entrance/exit area to delay, even if it is intended to arm and disarm the system from outside the dwelling.

Immediate alarm

All detectors which are set for “immediate” alarm will cause an immediate alarm when the system is armed or part armed.

Example plan of a 3 room apartment (see Fig. F)

components in the set:
IS   siren 3000IS
P   PIR-detector 3000P, set in home mode
M door/window contact 3000M, set in delay mode
optional components:
P PIR-detector 3000P, set in home mode
M door/window contact 3000M, set in immediate mode

Positioning of the components

Before installing the components plan the system and test the wireless connection from the proposed positions.
Consider the following:

  • The range of each component depends on many factors.
  • Walls, floors, doors, metal areas eg. refrigerators, shelving, mirrors, or volume of the water block the wireless signals.
  • The wireless range can be influenced by electromagnetic fields and other wireless devices. Ensure separation from microwave ovens, cordless phones, WiFi, mobile phones, wireless devices, electric motors, and wiring.
  • Ensure a minimum distance of 2 m between the components – also whilst testing.
  • Place the components so that they are not immediately visible to the intruder.
Siren 3000IS
  • Position the siren near the middle of the dwelling to optimize the wireless connection to all components.
  • Place it near a mains socket considering the cable length of the adapter.
  • Mount the siren after all components have been successfully enrolled.
PIR-detector 3000P
  • The PIR detector should be wall-mounted using the bracket.
  • Position the PIR-detector to monitor an area that is likely to be crossed by an intruder, eg. a hallway.
  • The sensor reacts to changes in temperature, eg. movement of persons, within the monitored area (up to 8m over 110° (see Fig. I) using the ideal mounting height of 2.2m).
  • Do not cover the lens of the detector, otherwise, the sensor cannot detect!
  • As the sensor reacts to temperature changes, ensure that there are no heat sources in the monitored area, eg. radiators, lamps, air conditioning, ventilators, windows, cooking appliances, or draughts.
  • The detector should look into the room, and not be aimed at windows (see Fig. F).
  • Pets can also trigger an alarm, ensuring that these cannot enter the monitored area when the system is armed. If this is not possible install the detector upside down so that the floor area is not monitored. In this case, test that an intruder will still be detected.
  • How quickly the detector reacts is also dependent on the ambient temperature. In a colder environment, it reacts quicker.
  • Motion across the monitored area is detected much quicker than motion directly towards the detector. Position the detector so that an intruder will move across the area (see Fig. D).
 Door/window contact 3000M (see Fig. G, H)
  • Place the sensor on the window or door.
  • Place the magnet on the frame of the opening side of the door or window directly adjacent to the sensor. The arrow marks must be opposite each other and the distance between separating distances in closed conditions should not exceed 10 mm (see Fig. E).

Connection and commissioning

Siren 3000IS
  • Connect the DC-plug of the mains adapter (7) with the cable (5).
  • Connect the mains adapter with a suitable mains outlet. The siren is now ready for use.

The delay can be set by pressing the connection button (6) using a ballpoint pen. The setting will be confirmed by a beep and a flash.

Delay Press connection button
15 seconds 2x
30 seconds 3x
no delay 4x

factory default: 30 seconds

PIR-detector 3000P

The detector in the set is already enrolled in the siren.

  • Open the housing by pressing the clip (25) with a small screwdriver.
  • Insert two suitable alkaline 1.5 V, AA batteries into the battery compartment (34) observing correct polarity.
  • Close the housing fully so that it clicks. After inserting the batteries the detector enters a 3 minutes stabilizing period indicated by flashing of the LED (21) every 3 seconds. Afterward, the detector is in operating mode.

To test the detector enters the test mode by pressing the test button (23). You now have 3 minutes time to test the coverage of the sensor: Hold the detector in the proposed position and then ask somebody to walk across the monitored area. Detection will be indicated by the LED (21). After 5-10 seconds of deactivation, the sensor is reactivated and is ready for another detection.
After 3 minutes in Test mode, the deactivation period is increased to 3-5 minutes, to save battery power (operating mode) which means that the PIR only sends a signal to the siren after it has not registered movement for a period of 3 to 5 minutes.

  • Set the LED/ZONE jumpers (35/36) to the desired setting (see chapter 10 – note: in this case all components must be enrolled again).
  • Secure the housing with screw (27) into screw-hole (26) using a small screwdriver.
Door/window contact 3000M

The detector in the set is already enrolled in the siren.

  • Slide the battery compartment lid downwards and lift it from the sensor (37).
  • Set the ZONE jumper (42) to the desired setting (see Chapter 10 – note in this case all components must be enrolled again).
  • Insert a suitable alkaline 1.5 V, AA battery into the battery compartment (43) observing correct polarity.
  • Close the housing fully so that it clicks. The detector is now in operating mode.
  • Test the detector from the proposed position, and detection will be indicated by the LED (38).
Remote control 3000R

The remote control in the set is already enrolled to the siren and is operational since the battery is already installed.

Setting the detectors

The detectors can be set according to the position of jumpers that connect two pins together.
Remove batteries before changing the jumper positions.
After the position of a jumper in any enrolled detector has been changed it is necessary to reset the siren and reenroll all components (see chapters 20 and 19).

Operation

With each remote control 3000R that is enrolled to the siren the system can be fully armed, part armed, disarmed, and a panic alarm can be activated.
Use ear protection when testing the system.
Pay attention not to cover the front part of the remote control in order not to block the wireless connection.
**** Ensure that the beeping of the siren is audible as confirmation of the command and so that you are reminded to leave/disarm the system.

Full arm
  • Press the full-arm button [16]. The siren confirms with one beep and one flash. If a delay has been set the siren will beep every 5 seconds and you have time to leave the dwelling during the delay period.
  • If you wish to arm without confirmation beeps then press the part arm button (14) before pressing the full-arm button. The armed status is indicated by a red LED (3).
Part arm

See chapter 7.1

  • Press the part arm button (14). The siren confirms with one beep and one flash. If a delay has been set the siren will beep every 5 seconds.
  • If you wish to part the arm without confirmation beeps then press the part arm button two times.

The armed status is indicated by a red LED (3). The detectors which are set to home mode will not cause an alarm by detection.

 Disarm
  • Press the disarm button (12). The siren confirms with two beeps and two flashes. The LED (3) no longer lights and the system is disarmed.
  • If you wish to disarm without confirmation beeps then press the part arm button (14) before pressing the disarm button.
Panic alarm
  • Press the panic button (13). The siren will sound alarmed for approx. 3 minutes.
  • You can silence the alarm by pressing the disarm button (12).

 Alarm

Upon detection, a detector will send an alarm signal to the siren. If the system is armed, the siren will sound and flash for up to 3 minutes. If the detector was set to delay, then the alarm will be delayed accordingly.

  • To stop the alarm press the disarm button. If the alarm is not canceled it will stop automatically after 3 minutes and the system remains armed.

**** Note that in operating mode a PIR-detector will be deactivated for 3-5 minutes after each detection) which means that the PIR only sends a signal to the siren after it has not registered movement for a period of 3 to 5 minutes.

Changing the batteries

The batteries in detectors will last typically 6 months. For a PIR detector in a room where there is much movement, this period can be shorter. A weak battery will be indicated by flashing the detector LED every 6 seconds. Replace the batteries as soon as possible to ensure continued operation. After the low battery warning starts the detector will operate for a maximum of 3 weeks (assuming no detection within this period). If the remote control becomes weak the battery is weak and must be replaced.

  • Disarm the siren.
  • Open the housing.
  • Replace the batteries with suitable new ones.

**** Open and close the housing of the remote control with care, to ensure that the LED cover and PCB do not slip out of place.

Wireless range

Note that the wireless range of each component can differ. The range is dependent on various factors. A reduction in the range can be caused by the following:
Ο Walls and floors, especially those containing metal, metalized foil, reinforced concrete or stone
Ο Coated windows (eg. Energy saving windows), radiators, refrigerators, mirrors, metalic surfaces or doors
Ο Electrical wiring and electrical appliances (eg. motors, microwave ovens)
Ο Devices using the same or similar wireless frequency.

Troubleshooting

Fault Cause Remedy
