  • Page 4: The Dvs-2400 Security System

    DOOR/WINDOW SENSOR SENSOR CONSOLE The DVS-2400 Console is the heart of the system. It monitors all of the system’s wireless sensors and controls the alarm sirens. The Console constantly monitors the condition of the system’s sensors, displaying which protected doors and windows are open or closed.
  • Page 5: Door/Window Sensors

    DOOR/WINDOW SENSORS The DXS-31 & DXS-32 sensors monitor doors and windows. They send radio signals to the Console. One type of signal is sent when the door or window is opened, and a different type of signal is sent when the door or window is closed. If the Console is armed, a sensor can trigger the Console’s burglary siren when its door or window is opened.
