Installation Using Web Server
Advanced Installation
Advanced settings are only accessible via the ZeroWire Web Server, UltraSync + app, or
DLX900.
These instructions describe how to install zones and add users once you have logged in to
the ZeroWire Web Server.
Alternatively, you may use the UltraSync + app to perform programming. This can be done
remotely even when not on-site. See "Enabling" on page 37.
Unpacking Detectors
These instructions are for general information only. Please refer to the manual included
with each detector for further details.
1. Remove the detector from packaging.
2. Remove a battery cover of the detector.
3. Install batteries taking care to insert them correctly. Batteries inserted with reverse
polarity may damage the detector.
Installation Suggestions
Wireless detectors feature low power transmission to maximize battery life. This means
you should place the ZeroWire in a central location and install detectors as close to the
ZeroWire as possible.
Signals from each detector will reduce in strength as they pass through different
building materials with brick and concrete absorbing more of the signal.
Keep detectors away from household appliances and metal surfaces (e.g. refrigerator,
TV, washing machine, garage door). Metal surfaces will reflect the signal away.
If you have a double-storey property, it is suggested the ZeroWire unit be installed on
the highest level for the best signal strength.
ZeroWire installed below ground level (e.g. basement) may have reduced range.
Motion/Passive Infra-Red (PIR) detectors should be installed to look over the area you
want to protect. The path of an intruder should walk across the front of the PIR. A PIR
is less sensitive to an intruder walking directly towards it. Avoid pointing the PIR at
windows or heat sources as these may cause the PIR to operate incorrectly.
Reed switches should be installed across doors/windows where two surfaces open and
close. Place the detector on the frame and the magnet on the door/window. Take care
to close the door/window and note any gap between the magnet and the detector. If the
gap is large the detector will always be in an open state and prevent you from
arming/disarming the system. A plastic spacer can be used to ensure the reed switch
seals correctly.
