Chapter 3 Local system activation and deactivation

Activating the ABUS wireless alarm system

3.1
When you activate the ABUS wireless alarm system, you activate, or arm, the sensors
of the system (door and window contacts, glass breakage detectors, motion sensors,
etc.). Every sensor is triggered by a particular event (a motion sensor by movement, a
glass breakage sensor by glass breakage, a window contact by the opening of the
secured window, a smoke detector by smoke, etc.). When the system is activated, the
triggering of a sensor leads to an alarm. This chapter shows you the different ways of
activating the ABUS wireless alarm system. If programmed, activation is confirmed by
a local announcement.
You can activate the system in two ways:
- By entering your user PIN
- By using the control buttons
You can activate 3 different elements. You can:
- activate externally (the complete system)
- activate internally (detectors of the outer skin only)
- activate partitions
IMPORTANT:
If you accidentally enter the wrong PIN during activation, the operating panel emits 3 brief
tone signals. The display shows "Wrong Code. Please try again." In this case, press
repeatedly and enter the correct PIN.
Before activating the system, check the READY LED. If it is on or flashing, you can arm the
system. If the READINESS LED is off or not flashing, your system is not ready and you
cannot activate the ABUS wireless alarm system. In this case, you have to close or omit
open zones. Then you can continue.
