Plan your system: Before beginning the installation process, take some time to plan your
system, decide where you want to locate the devices.
Example
Location tips:
1. Keypad should be accessible from a protected entry/exit point. Ensure that the Keypad is not visible from
the outside of the premises.
2. Mount Door/Window Contacts as high as possible on the door / window frame.
3. PIR Motion Detectors should be located in the corner of the room to maximise coverage.
Do not point directly at a source of heat (eg.fires or boilers), facing a window or a door protected by a
Door/Window Contact. Avoid installing directly above radiators.
4. If you have Pets that may climb on furniture, avoid using PET PIR Motion detectors as this can cause false
alarms. Instead replace with additional Door/ Window Contacts.
5. Mount the external siren as high as possible on an external wall.
