How does ... Alarm system performance AUTONOMY to All the devices in the installation are battery powered. YEARS Secure dual frequency radio technology A patented, exclusive process: radio transmission is performed using two alternating frequencies which constantly take over from one another to ensure that 100% of the information is transferred. FREQUENCY Regular system self-monitoring - Management of loss of radio link The devices (with the exception of the remote controls) periodically send their operating status to the central unit: battery level,...

– or it sends an alarm to a remote monitoring centre, using the PSTN module. If the installation has roller shutters (with a SOMFY motor), it is possible to program these to come down automatically when an intrusion is detected or to go up automatically if smoke is detected, by means of a SOMFY receiver for roller shutters.

Recommendations Important To ensure that the system functions optimally, you are advised to choose the correct location for each device. Ensure good radio transmission The correct propagation of radio waves depends on the nature of the material they travel through. The range of the waves may vary depending on the type of construction (chalet, type of walls or partitions, apartment with metal structure, etc.).
You can protect up to three areas of the home, referred to as zones. A zone consists of intrusion detectors which are located in various parts of the home. The SOMFY system makes it possible to define 3 distinct zones. It is thus possible to arm the alarm in one zone only, in 2 zones or in all 3 zones (= full arming).

Storing the devices 1/ Activating the central unit/phone dialer storage mode On the central unit/phone dialer You have 2 minutes to store one or more devices. The 2-minute period is restarted as soon as a device has been stored. The beep indicates that To open the memory, press the the device has been stored in the central PROG button;...
Fixing the devices To check for satisfactory radio range between the central unit/phone dialer and the devices: Place the central unit/phone dialer on a rigid surface, without securing it, at the centre of the dwelling close to a telephone socket and the broadband router/modem in order to test for correct radio range following the installation of each device.
Fixing the devices Operating The movement detectors are sensitive to heat: to avoid accidental triggering, never point a movement detector directly towards a window, above or opposite a heat source (radiator, precautions convection heater or fireplace) or on a veranda. common to the three movement...
