SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Keep your Centurion SCOUT Portable Alert System OPERATING PROPERLY:
 Visually inspect the SCOUT on a daily basis. Check the front panel to ensure correct
LED lights are lit.
If the system is not ARMED, alarms WILL NOT BE PROCESSED or LOGGED.
SYSTEM ARM/DISARMED LED will be lit when the system is armed. Sensors
activated while the unit is disarmed will not transmit alarms via the radio system or
other communication interface option.
 The ALARM HISTORY LOG is where important system activities are recorded, such as
sensor missing and low battery notifications. These notifications are NOT transmitted
via radio system or other communication interface options. The log can be viewed, saved
to disk, or printed using the provided client software.
 PERIODICALLY TEST your Centurion SCOUT Portable Alert System by activating
sensors to confirm alert is being broadcast. Immediately investigate and correct any
issues, including sensors that fail to respond properly. Contact an authorized SCOUT
technician for help with troubleshooting.
Testing should ALWAYS be performed:
 after the initial configuration of the system,
 after any changes to the system's configuration are made, and
 as often as prescribed by your agency's Standard Operating Procedures (SOP).
When in use in the field (deployed) or being stored, always keep the SCOUT unit in a
secure location to prevent tampering.
 The site should be free of excessive electrostatic presence, extreme temperatures
(above 150 degrees / below -20 degrees Fahrenheit)
conditions could damage sensitive electronic components.
 Operate with care, SCOUT can be operated with the lid open or closed.
 The real-time clock is serviced by the internal battery. Allowing the internal battery to
drain will affect the accuracy of the real-time clock.
 Store the unit plugged into an AC power source in order to maintain a full charge on the
internal battery. Internal battery will drain over a long period of time in storage.
