DEVICE RANGE
The quoted range of the system devices (see

in ideal conditions. Any solid object (e.g. walls,
ceilings, reinforced PVC doors etc) placed between
2
Bradawl
Drill
3mm Drill Bit
5 & 6mm Masonry Drill Bits
the transmitter and Receiver device will reduce the
radio range.
The amount by which the range will be reduced is
dependant upon the nature of the barrier.
For example:
Wall Type
Dry-lined partition wall:
Single layer brick wall:
Double layer brick wall:
Metal panel/radiator:
Note: The effect on the range of multiple walls is
cumulative, i.e. if there are 2 brick walls in the way,
the range will be reduced by up to 40% by each wall.
SYSTEM SECURITY
This system has been designed to both detect
intruders and act as a strong deterrent to would-be
intruders when installed correctly.
We recommend that your Alarm is used in conjunction
with good physical protection such as security window
and door locks.
All units in the system are encoded to operate together
using a 20 bit House Code.
The system is operated from one or more Remote
Control Units and/or Keypads - depending on which
system and/or accessories purchased.
SAFETY
Always follow the manufacturers advice when using
power tools; steps, ladders etc. and wear suitable
protective equipment (e.g. safety goggles) when
drilling holes etc.
Before drilling holes in walls, check for hidden
electricity cables and water pipes, the use of a
cable/pipe locater maybe advisable if in doubt.
When using ladders, ensure that they are positioned
on a firm stable surface at the correct angle and
suitably secured before use.
The use of ear defenders is advisable when working
in close proximity to the Siren due to the high sound
level produced by this device.
