5.5 CANCELLING the Auto Dialler
• If the Auto Dialler is activated in error it can only be cancel by:
- The recipient following the instructions in 4.2
- Cutting off the mains power supply to the Auto Dialler AND disconnecting the back-up battery
5.6 House Security Code Settings
Unless the factory settings of the Wire-free Home Protection System Smart Panel have been altered,
the House Security Code will NOT need to be changed.
However, if the settings on the Smart Panel have been altered, or need to be altered to solve the pro-
blem of the Smart Panel and sensors activating intermittently (or not working at all) or interference
with other systems, then the House Security Code on all system modules (sensors and sirens), will
also need to be changed.
House Security Code settings can be altered as follows:
• There are 4 jumpers or dip-switches on each device.
• Remove the battery compartment cover then toggle the dip switch contacts to change the House
Security Code
• If the dip switch is up it is ON if it is down it is OFF. Default code on the Auto Dialler is with all the
dip switches ON (up)
• To ensure the system works correctly, make sure the jumpers on the Smart Panel and all other
system modules (sensors and sirens) match exactly.
Note: Inadequate maintenance is the most common cause of alarm
failure; therefore, test your system at least once per week to be sure
the sensors and sirens are working properly.
Although having an alarm system may make you eligible for reduced
insurance premiums, the system is no substitute for insurance.
6.1 FAQs
1. What is the best way to set up my system? Where should I put my Smart Panel and the
sensors?
We recommend that you take some time in advance to think about the placement of the Smart
Panel and Sensors. The best location for the Smart Panel is usually by the main entry/exit point, in
a hallway, or in another central location in your home. However, it must be plugged into a power
socket, which may dictate where it can be placed.
• Please note that the alarm is pre-programmed with default settings, allowing you a pre-deter
-
mined amount of time to enter (30 seconds) and time to exit (20 seconds) before the alarm
sounds. front door you can either change the default setting to allow more time to enter/exit
your home or, alternatively use the Key Fob to disarm the system.
2. How many Sensors can the Smart Panel support?
An unlimited number of sensors can be supported by the system, added to different zones in your
house, as you see fit.
3. What wireless range should I expect from Sensors?
The range will vary depending on the type of structure; however, in an open space, the sensors
should be capable of transmitting a signal up to 150 metres from the Smart Panel. Determine the
location of the sensors first and change to a different location for better RF performance.
4. How do I attach my Sensors?
Adhesive tape and screws are provided for the purpose of securely mounting these items.
Please refer to the user guide for more information about mounting the Smart Panel and the wirel-
ess sensors.
5. Do I have to programme the Smart Panel?
The Wire-free Home Protection System WS-200 is designed for easy installation. This means
that the wireless sensors are in a default setting already registered to the Smart Panel and will
therefore function immediately after the sensors are powered up. If you choose to buy additional
accessories, these will need to be added to your system using the easy to follow instructions.
Note:
Due to the strong signal of the alarm, we advise that you change the House Security Code
settings following section 4.3 of this manual, if you suspect that one of your in-range neighbours
may also be using this alarm system.
6. Can I still use the same system if I move?
The Wire-free Home Protection System WS-200 is completely portable. If you move, you can re
-
move your Smart Panel and wireless accessories and re-install them in your new property.
7. What if I forget my PIN?
If you forget your PIN, you may press the “Reset” button inside the battery compartment of the
Smart Panel and the PIN will be reset to the factory default PIN 1234.
8. Why does my Motion Sensor not respond to movement?
Motion Sensor are very sensitive so to preserve battery life the Sensor will go to “Sleep” after an
event has been identified and reported to the panel. This “Sleep” period lasts 3 minutes, after
which, if no activity is detected, the Motion Sensor will again become active and ready to detect
other events.
9. Why does my Motion Sensor keep generating false alarms?
If you have a pet, make sure they have not triggered the system. Remember, sensitivity to pets
increases in certain circumstances e.g. the nearer the pet to the Sensor.
5.7 Maintenance
The product may be cleaned with a soft damp cloth and then wiped dry. Do not use abrasive, solvent
based or aerosol cleaners as this may damage and/or discolour the product. Do not allow water to
enter or attempt to clean inside the unit.
5.8 Batteries
Do not allow the batteries to corrode or leak as this may cause permanent damage to the product.
Take care to insert the batteries with the correct polarity as shown inside the battery compartments.
Do not mix new and old batteries or different types of batteries. Do not use rechargeable batteries.
At the end of their useful life the batteries should be disposed of via a suitable recycling centre. Do
not dispose of with your normal household waste. DO NOT BURN.
5.9 Alarm System Limitations
Even the most advanced alarm systems cannot guarantee 100% protection against burglary or
environmental problems. All alarm systems are subject to possible compromise or failure-to-warn for
a variety of reasons.
Please note that you may encounter problems with your system if:
• The sensors are not placed within hearing range of persons sleeping or remote parts of the premises.
• The sensors are placed behind doors or other obstacles.
• Intruders gain access through unprotected points of entry (where sensors are not located).
• Intruders have the technical means of bypassing, jamming, or disconnecting all or part of the
system.
• The power to the sensors is inadequate or disconnected.
• The sensors are not located in proper environmental/temperature conditions i.e. too close to a heat
source.
