Operating instructions

TESTING THE SYSTEM
You may test your system at any time, however, it is
recommended that the system is tested at regular
intervals not exceeding three months. You cannot
readily test the system using the Remote Control Unit.
To set the Control Unit to Test mode
Enter
The Control Unit will emit 2 bleeps and the power LED
will flash.
Before testing areas protected by Passive Infra Red
Movement Detectors, ensure that the area is
completely clear of occupants, including pets. Wait 40
seconds before testing areas protected by Passive
Infra Red Movement Detectors and also allow 40
seconds between tests. Where two Pulse Detection
has been selected, ensure you take two or three paces
within the area to trigger the detector.
When a Passive Infra Red Movement Detector is
activated, or a protected door or window is opened
the Control Unit will emit a 3 second alarm tone and
the associated Zone LED will illuminate.
On completion of testing, return to the normal Disarmed
mode of operation by
Entering at the Control Unit
and ensure that the Power LED illuminates steadily.
To test the External Solar Siren & Strobe, ensure that
the Control Unit is out of Test mode, then press ‘Panic’
on the Remote Control Unit to activate the Control Unit
Siren and External Siren & Strobe. Allow the alarm to
sound for at least 10 seconds then press the ‘OFF’
button on the Remote Control to de-activate. Clear the
Control Unit Tamper/Personal Attack Zone Activated
LED by
Entering at the Control Unit.
MAINTENANCE
Your E400 Intruder Alarm system requires very little
maintenance. However, a few simple tasks will ensure
its continued reliability and operation.
CONTROL UNIT
The Control Unit requires no maintenance. If cleaning
is required, wipe the outside of the casing with a
soft damp cloth. Do not use aerosols or sprays or
proprietary cleaners. Do not attempt to clean inside
the Unit or allow water to enter the Unit.
SOLAR SIREN & STROBE
1. At least once a year, preferably in the Autumn,
the Solar Panel on the top of the siren housing
should be cleaned using a soft, damp cloth. This
operation will ensure that the Solar Panel receives
all the available light. The cleaning operation can
be combined with the general cleaning of the
outside of the house, windows etc. to reduce
maintenance time.
2. The Solar Siren & Strobe incorporates tamper
protection for system security. Should you, for any
reason, have to completely power down the Solar
Siren & Strobe (eg. to move the system to a new
premises) remove the holding screw at the base of
the Siren and hinge off the front cover.
WARNING - THE SIREN WILL SOUND
Disconnect the rechargeable battery and initial
power up battery and ensure that the Solar Panel
is covered with a light proof material to prevent it
being energised.
3. The Solar Siren & Strobe should not be left for long
periods with the batteries connected, unless the
unit is able to receive sufficient light to maintain the
battery charging circuit. Failure to maintain charge
to the unit will result in the rechargeable battery
running unacceptably low. Should this occur, the
unit must be recharged from a 240 Volt AC/7.5 Volt
DC mains adaptor (Response order code S100TR).
When re-powering the Solar Siren & Strobe fit a
new 9 Volt PP3 leak proof Alkaline Initial Power-Up
Battery to ensure that the Unit receives sufficient
power until the Solar Panel can recharge the main
battery completely.
