Power Horn
The POWERHORN Remote Powerline
Siren (sold separately) responds to
signals transmitted by the console (over
your house wiring).
When the alarm is tripped, the
POWERHORN is also tripped and
continues to sound until about 4
seconds after the alarm is reset or
disarmed.
1. Set House Code and Unit Code dials
on the POWERHORN to A-13
2. Plug the POWERHORN into a
standard AC outlet (not one
controlled by a wall switch).
NOTE: If you do not want to trigger the
POWERHORN when you turn on the
security light, you must request the
Monitoring Station to download the
information to re-configure your console
to generate an All Lights On/All Units
Off
sequence.
Then
set
the
POWERHORN codewheels to the
same House Code as your lamp
modules but to a different Unit Code.

WARNING: THE POWERHORN is
extremely loud! Do not stand near it
when you trip the alarm. Prolonged
exposure could cause permanent
hearing damage.
Using the POWERHORN with
other X10 controllers
In a panic situation, you can trip the
POWERHORN from other types of
Controllers as follows:
1. Press (and hold) the ON button
corresponding to the House and Unit
codes set on the POWERHORN.
After about 4 seconds the
POWERHORN trips. Press OFF to
turn it off.
2. Alternatively, repeatedly press All
Lights On followed by All Units Off.
Or repeatedly press the ON and
OFF buttons corresponding to the
POWERHORN's Unit Code. This will
trigger the POWERHORN after
about two ON-OFF sequences and
will continue as long as you keep
repeating the sequence. The siren
will shut off about 4 seconds after
the last key press.
SETTING UP FOR THE MONITORING STATION
Introduction to monitoring
The Monitor Plus™ Security System
incorporates
the
same
digital
communicator technology found in
expensive high-end security products.
Features supported include account
number downloading and verification,
remote configuration and alarm type
confirmation.
When one of the sensors is activated
while the system is armed, a loud piercing
siren sounds. If the alarm is not disarmed
within the next few seconds using one of
the security coded remote controls, the
security system console automatically
dials the monitoring station and sends a
digitally coded message allowing the
station operator to identify your address,
telephone number and even the type of
alarm that occurred.
Automatic Lighting Control
When the Monitor Plus Security System
is armed in the away mode, an
automatic timer can be put into action
to turn lights, stereos, TVs, etc. on and
off at random times to make your home
look lived in.
Part of the information downloaded to
the console includes four unit codes for
X10 modules that can be used to give
your home a lived-in look. A code is
downloaded to give the location
(longitude and latitude) of your home,
which is then used to calculate the time
of dusk, and also a time is downloaded
to say when lights should all turn off.
Module Code 1 is turned on at dusk and
turns off at the set off-time (this is the
same code that flashes during an alarm
and can be controlled by the Keychain
and Security/Home Automation remotes).
This could be used for control of an
outside security light, for example.
The other 3 codes are for X10 modules
that turn on and off randomly between
dusk and the set OFF time. These could
be used for inside lights to give the
impression that your home is occupied.
The date and time is also downloaded
for daylight savings time.
Registering with the
Monitoring Station.
Once you have installed the Motion
Sensor, Door/Window Sensors and
Remote Controls you are ready to set
up for monitoring. To do this, all you need
to do is:
• Fill out the enclosed monitoring
agreement and mail or fax it to ORCA
Monitoring Services.
• Call ORCA Monitoring Services at
1-800-FOR-ORCA (1-800-367-6722)
and follow the instructions to have
your system initialized.
Note: Although you can register your
system as soon as it has been installed,
the Monitoring Station will not respond
to alarm calls until the signed monitoring
agreement has been received and you
have been allocated your security code
which will be notified to you by return.
