Home Grouping

Please read through all of the steps thoroughly before installation.
It is essential to "Home Group" the control switch to all of the alarms in
the system, to ensure they will not communicate with any other
nearby systems. Failure to "Home Group" the system will prevent it
from operating correctly.
**Do this BEFORE you install any of the devices!**
Setting up the Home Group
1. Turn the power on with the switch on the back of the Control
Unit.
2. Turn on all alarms to be installed in the system by sliding them
onto their baseplates until they click into place.
3. Press and hold the "Home Group" button (H CODE) on the
back of the Control Unit until the Red LED lights up on the front
as pictured below, then release. Now the Control Unit is in
"Home Grouping" mode.
Note: The "Home Grouping" mode on the controller will be active
for 2 minutes 30 seconds. After this period, it will
turn off automatically.
