Thank you for your purchase of our VOICE ALERT™ monitoring system.
The VOICE ALERT™ Sensor/Transmitter Model Number VA-6000T is designed
to work with the VOICE ALERT™ Receiver/Speaker Model Number VA-6000S.
We hope it will bring you satisfaction knowing you can monitor your garage, pool, side yard,
play area, front door area, side door or back door and get an immediate response, in your
own voice, of movement in each monitored zone.
Your VOICE ALERT™ SYSTEM uses pyroelectric infrared (PIR) motion technology
(senses heat) to trigger a battery operated Sensor/Transmitter. This Sensor/Transmitter
has a wireless range of up to 1000 feet. Your Receiver/Speaker unit consists of a receiver,
voice recording/playback system and speaker. Controls allow for power input, recording of
up to six voice messages (in your voice), and programming of each Sensor/Transmitter to
activate your voice message. Any number of Sensor/Transmitters can use the same code
to activate the same message. Your Receiver/Speaker also includes, 4 connections to activate
other devices.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Section I • INSTALL THE SENSOR/TRANSMITTER 9 VOLT BATTERIES
Remove the front cover of the Voice Alert™ VA-6000T Sensor/Transmitter by
pressing down on the release tab at the bottom of the unit (See Figure 1).
Connect a 9-volt alkaline battery to the connector.
Section II • CONNECT THE POWER TO THE SPEAKER
Use the power supply included with your Voice Alert™ system (See Figure 2).
Connect it to a suitable 117 VAC, 60 Hertz power outlet (standard wall receptacle).
Plug the 9 VDC end into the power jack on the Voice Alert™ Receiver/Speaker
rear panel.
1. Connect the Voice Alert™ Receiver/Speaker to a suitable power source and turn the unit ON with the “POWER” switch.
2. The Receiver/Speaker has a three position slide switch. Move the switch to the "PROGRAM" position (See Figure 3).
3. Set the 8 dipswitches DIFFERENT from your other Sensor/Transmitter settings (See Figure 8).
4. Activate the Sensor/Transmitter by moving your hand in front of the lens and observing the LED flashing on the front.
(The Receiver/Speaker “SET UP” LED will glow, indicating that the transmission has been received).
5. While the “SET UP” LED is glowing, press the button for the message that you want activated by that Sensor/Transmitter, #2-#6.
The “SETUP” LED light will stop glowing, indicating that the Sensor/Transmitter is now programmed into the selected voice message.
6. Repeat step 2 through 4 to program additional Sensor/Transmitters to each voice message.
7. Return the slide switch to the "RUN" position.
NOTE:Any number of Sensor/Transmitters can be set to the same message by setting it to the same dipswitch code.

MODEL VA-6000S & VA-6000T
RECEIVER / SPEAKER
SENSOR / TRANSMITTER
Note: The Sensor/Transmitter included in the Voice Alert™ kit is pre-programmed from the factory and will function without modification.
If you decide to change the Code or add more Sensor/Transmitters, follow these steps.
The battery saving switch W1 [A] (See Figure 4) is used to disable the red LED that glows through
the front of the Sensor/Transmitter. To disable the red LED, move the switch to the “OFF” position.
The VR1 [B] dial is used to set sensor delay. Setup mode causes a signal to transmit each time
the Sensor/Transmitter is triggered by movement. The operational mode transmits once and
waits for the time you set on the dial delay, checks the protected zone and transmits again if
movement is still detected. Therefore, always allow time for the Sensor/Transmitter to reset if you
are testing the unit in operational mode.
Turn the time delay adjusting screw clockwise for longer delays, up to three minutes, using a
small screwdriver.
Battery life is extended when the Sensor/Transmitter is set on Operational mode.
Setup mode: is set by the factory.
Operational mode: LED switch W1 OFF and VR1 dial set for time delay.
Section IV • RECORDING YOUR LOW BATTERY MESSAGE
To record your Low Battery Message, move the slide switch to “RECORD”. While holding down the “PLAYBACK” button, say “low battery”
into the “MIC”. Return the slide switch to the “RUN” position. To test the “low battery message”, press button #1 for 2 seconds.
Section V • PLAYBACK BUTTON & MESSAGE (”MSG”) LED
When any of the VA-6000T Sensor/Transmitters experience a low battery condition, the “LOW BATTERY” LED will flash on the top of the
Receiver/Speaker. It will also sound your “Low Battery Message”. By pressing the “PLAYBACK” button, your Low Battery Message will play,
as well as the recorded message identifying the Sensor/Transmitter, that needs battery replacement. After a new battery is installed, trigger the
sensor to turn off the flashing LED.
