Note to Installers
This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to
bring each item in this warning to the attention of the users ofthis system.
System Failures
This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, however, involving fire,
burglary, or other types of emergencies where it may not provide protection. And alarm system of any type may be
compromised deliberately or may fail to operate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some but not all of these reasons
may be:
Note : The manufacture is not responsible for any radio or TV interference caused by unauthorized modifications to this
equipment. Such modifications could void the users authority to operate the equipment.
Inadequate Installation
A security system must be installed properly in other to provide adequate protection. Every installation should be
evaluated by a security professional to ensure that all access points and areas are covered. Lock and latches on
windows and doors must be secure and operate as intended. Windows, doors, walls, ceilings and other building
materials must be of sufficient strength and construction to provide the level of protection expected. A reevaluation
must be done during and after any construction activity. An evaluation by the fire and/or police department is highly
recommended if this service is available.
Criminal Knowledge
This system contains security features which were known to be effective at the time of manufacture. It is possible for
persons with criminal intent to develop techniques which reduce the effectiveness of these features. It is important
that a security system be reviewed periodically to ensure that its features remain effective and that it be updated or
replaced if it is found that it does not provide the protection expected.
Access by Intruders
Intruders may enter through an unprotected access point, circumvent a sensing device, evade detection by moving
through an area of insufficient coverage, disconnect a warning device, or interfere with or prevent the proper operation
of the system.
Power Failure
Controllers, intrusion detectors, smoke detectors and many other security devices require an adequate power supply
for proper operation. If a device operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have
not failed, they must be charged, in good condition and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any
interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does not have power. Power interruptions of
any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment such as a security
system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensue that the system
operates as intended.
Failure of Replaceable Batteries
This systems wireless transmitters have been designed to provide several months of battery life under normal
conditions. The expected battery life is a function of the device environment, usage and type. Ambient conditions such
as high humidity, high or low temperatures, or large temperature fluctuation may reduce the expected battery life.
While each transmitting device has a low battery monitor which identifies when the batteries need to be replaced, this
monitor may fail to operate as expected. Regular testing and maintenance will keep the system in good operating
condition.
Compromise of Radio Frequency (Wireless) Devices
Signals may not reach the receiver under all circumstances which could include metal objects placed on or near
the radio path or deliberate jamming or other inadvertent radio signal interference.
