PREVENTION OF FALSE ALARMS
The majority of alarms that occur are false. These situations happen every day due to user
error, incorrect installation or improper maintenance of the system. False alarms will limit the
responsiveness to the system, and become a general inconvenience. As the number of false
alarms increases, authorities have become less likely to respond to alarm systems due to this
problem. Many of these situations can be avoided by following some very simple practices.






Ensure all users are properly trained on the operation of the system
Check that motion detectors are not obstructed. Do not allow sources of heat or sound in
range of the motion or vibration sensors.
Know how to cancel an alarm or turn off the system before activating.
If a false alarm is tripped notify customer service immediately.
Test the system on a monthly basis to ensure proper functioning
Check cellular signal, power supply, and that all sensors are secured on a daily basis.
RECOMMENDED LOCATIONS


Avoid placement near electrical devices that could prevent optimal communication.
Avoid placing near dense metal or thick materials (walls, concrete, etc.) that could affect
the signal

Charging the Battery
This wireless sensor contains a rechargeable 3.7V lithium polymer battery. The battery will
have a lifetime of one year, at which point, barring other mechanical or power source failure,
the Monitoring service will be alerted to the batteries pending end of life via the Web UI.
TO CHARGE THE BATTERY

2. Plug in the selected charging unit (either wall plug or 12v source*1)
Note: If the unit is charging correctly, the LED will be red.
3. Disconnect the charger when the LED turns green,
Note: If the unit is functioning correctly, the LED will flash
intermittently. The flashing interval may be long enough that
you may not see it.

NOTE: The system must be disarmed prior to any changes.
1. Locate the corresponding ID for the PT in the Web GUI.
IMPORTANT
Write the device description and corresponding device number on the Sensor Location List
included with the Portable Alarm System. Keep this sheet for reference. This information
will be needed during the monitoring service enrollment process. As device changes are
made, be sure to contact customer service to make adjustments to the monitoring service.
2. After registration, test the sensor. If programming through the initial setup, the test
function will be included in the setup sequence.
Note: If the unit is reset and operating correctly, the LED will
intermittently flash.
