Door/Window Contact Sensors:

1. Identify the two parts of the sensor: the main unit and the magnetic strip.
2. Mount the main unit on the door or window frame and the magnetic strip on the moving part (door/window) using the provided adhesive pads or screws.
3. Ensure the two parts are aligned and within 1-2 cm of each other when the door/window is closed.
4. When the door/window opens and the gap exceeds 1-2 cm, the sensor will trigger an alarm.

PIR Motion Detectors:

1. Install motion detectors in areas where intruders are likely to pass, such as hallways or living rooms.
2. Mount them at a height of approximately 2-2.5 meters for optimal coverage.
3. Avoid placing them near heat sources, direct sunlight, or areas with strong air currents to prevent false alarms.

4. Pairing Sensors and Remotes

Sensors and remote controls typically come pre-paired. If you need to add new sensors or re-pair existing ones, follow the instructions below or refer to the video tutorial.

To clear existing codes and re-pair a sensor:

Video: Instructions on how to clear existing codes and re-pair a sensor with the alarm system.

1. On the receiver unit, press and hold the 'down arrow' button for 5 seconds to clear the code. The receiver will emit a sound.
2. Press and hold the 'volume' button on the receiver for 5 seconds. The receiver will emit a 'ding' sound, and its indicator light will flash rapidly.
3. Take the detector (e.g., door sensor or motion sensor) and activate it (e.g., separate the door sensor parts or wave your hand in front of the motion sensor) to send a signal to the receiver. The receiver will confirm pairing with a sound.

Funcionamento do sistema

1. Armado e desarmado

• Armado (Modo Ausente): Press the 'Arm' button on the control panel, remote control, or via the app. All sensors will be active.
• Home Arm (Stay Mode): Press the 'Home' button on the control panel, remote control, or via the app. Typically, perimeter sensors (door/window) are active, while internal motion sensors may be inactive to allow movement within the home.
• Desarmar: Enter your PIN on the control panel, press the 'Disarm' button on the remote control, or use the app.
