b) Preparation
• Lead the connection cable from the bolt switching contact to the installation
location selected for the activation switch. Lay the cables so that they are
not accessible from the outside. Lay the cables in-wall or in a suitable steel
tube.
In addition to the two cables required for the switch, a wire loop
could now also be laid to connect to the sabotage contact in the
activation switch.
If the cables are cut, the wire loop is then also interrupted and the
alarm base station triggers a sabotage alarm.
• Do not install the device in the immediate vicinity of large metal objects
(radiators, mirrors, aluminium laminated walls/insulating cladding, metal
doors) as this can reduce the wireless range.
• The activation switch should be installed in a dry indoor area (not in a damp
cellar or a bathroom, for example).
• Choose a secured area so that intruders cannot quickly tamper with the
device. The installation location should neither be immediately visible from
outside the house nor from within the house.
• There are two ways in which you can visually check the state of the alarm
system from the outside:
1. You can install the activation switch so that the two LEDs on the casing
of the activation switch are visible from the outside, through the glass
pane of a door, for instance. This, however, is contrary to the idea that
the installation location should not be immediately recognisable; see
above.
2. Inside the activation switch there is an option to connect two LEDs. When
a button is pressed these signal the state 'disarmed' or 'externally armed'
in the same way the two LEDs on the casing do.
