Prevention of False Alarms

The majority of alarms that occur are false. These situations happen every day due to
user error, incorrect installation or improper maintenance of the system. False alarms will
limit the responsiveness to the system, and become a general inconvenience. As the
number of false alarms increases, authorities have become less apt to respond to alarm
systems due to this problem. Many of these situations can be avoided by following some
very simple practices.
• Ensure all users are properly trained on the operation of the system.
• Always turn off the system with the Key Chain Remote Control before entering protected
area.
• Lock all protected doors, windows or any other asset attached to a sensor.
• Check that motion detectors are not obstructed. Do not allow sources of heat or sound
in range of the motion or vibration sensors.
• Check that premises are cleared and assets secured before setting the system.
• Turn off all noise sources – radios, compressors, generators, heavy equipment, etc.
• Know how to cancel an alarm or turn off the system before activating.
• If a false alarm is tripped call customer service immediately.
• Test the system on a monthly basis to ensure proper functioning.
• Check cellular signal, power supply, and that sensors are secured on a daily basis.
• Keep the Base Unit plugged in to the wall outlet. When the back-up battery drops below
a certain level, the system will notify the the user through the monitoring service.
