Before connecting or operating the Motion Sensor, please read these instructions carefully and save this manual for future reference. Congratulations The GE Choice Alert™ Wireless Alarm System is one of the most affordable and expandable wireless alarm systems available. You’ll discover the system offers many features typically found in custom installed Alarm systems. The Choice Alert system is reliable and easy-to-use.
Important safeguards PreCautions 1. Do not attempt to disassemble the Motion Sensor, unless described in the user’s manual. There are no user serviceable parts. 2. Handle with Care – Avoid striking or shaking. Improper use or storage could damage the Motion Sensor. Modifying or tampering the device or its internal components can cause a malfunction and void the Motion Sensor’s warranty. 3.
Introduction The Motion Sensor is designed to be used indoors or out. When mounted properly it can monitor large or open areas such as entrances, living rooms, family rooms, driveways, backyards, walkways, workshops, etc. When the Sensor detects motion, it will transmit a signal to the Control Center. The Zone selection and settings on the Control Center determine if an alarm or an alert sounds. Parts Check List Identify all the parts before proceeding.
12∞ Preparing the Motion Sensor for Installation The Motion Sensor consists of 2 parts – The Sensor (Transmitter) and the wall mount. Before installing, remove the screw from the battery door on the back of the Sensor. You’ll need to attach the battery leads to a “9V” battery (not included); Take care to note the polarity markings. Replace the battery cover and secure screw.
- To activate the Motion Sensor, press the Learn button located inside the battery compartment, or if mounted wave your hand in front of the Sensor (the red LED indicator will flash inside lens area in front of the Motion Sensor). Step 1 Press and hold the Learn button for three seconds Step 2 Select the Zone number Input DC 12V - + Mute Learn 1 2 3 4 Arm Step 3 Release the Zone button Step 4 To activate the Motion Sensor press the button on the inside of the unit.
Step 3 - Set the Notification Mode to switch ‘Alert’ position and begin activating Sensors one at a time. Note: The sensor has a LED that flashes to show when the sensor has triggered and transmitted to the main unit. Step 4 - When testing is complete, unplug the AC adapter, then plug the AC adapter back in and reinstall batteries. This returns the Control Center to standard operation mode. Note: The Control Center will automatically return to standard operation mode after 5 hours.
Erasing the Sensor from a Zone Note: If you need to remove the Sensor from a Zone, the system will erase the entire Zone, so any other Sensors will need to be put back into that particular Zone. Step 1 - To erase a Zone, press and hold the Learn button on the Control Center. The unit will beep once. Step 2 - While holding the Learn button, press and hold the Zone button to be erased. After five seconds the Control Center will sound two beeps and the Zone LED indicator will flash twice.
However, you can check the Motion Sensor status independently by placing the Control Center in Test mode (see Testing a Sensor on page 7) and trigger the Sensor separately. If mounted, wave hand in front of Sensor, or press activation button for two seconds inside battery compartment. If the Sensor does not trigger an alert then replace the battery with a new one.

Risk of personal injury - Prolonged exposure to alarm siren may cause permanent hearing loss Battery Warnings! - Remove batteries before storing the Alarm or Sensor for extended periods - Batteries may leak harmful liquids or ignitable materials or explode causing injury and product damage - Do not mix old and new or other battery ty
Optional Accessory For optimum performance and increased distance between control center with sensors and transmitters; use of optional accessory “Signal 36 45138 45132 m SirenRepeater” is recommended. Signal Repeater Silent alert The Signal Repeater will extend the range of the Choice Alert system up to 150 feet from its location – Effectively repeating the signal from any Sensor back to the Control Center should a Sensor be located out of range.
Step 3 - When the Signal Repeater receives the confirmation signal, the LED indicator will flash, five times. If the Signal Repeater does not receive the confirmation signal from the Control Center, the LED indicator on the Signal Repeater will not flash. You will need to move the Signal Repeater closer to the Control Center and retest. Step 4 - To Ensure the Signal Repeater can receive the signal from the Sensor, activate the Sensor.
Motion Sensor F.A.Q.’S Q. I bought a new Sensor and the Control Center will not recognize it. Why? A. First, make sure that the battery is new and has been correctly attached to the terminals. Confirm that the Sensor has been correctly assigned to a Zone. Q. I put the Sensor on Zone 4 and it will not set off the alarm. Why? A. Zone 4 is a Dedicated Alert Zone and is designed to monitor Sensors in this Zone. It will only issue an alert (LED will flash, continuous beeping will be heard).
Sensor. This will cause low battery indication on the Control Center (See pg 10). Q. Why does one of my Zones continually flash? A. This can be caused by 1 of 2 conditions. First condition, if it is a rapid flash it means a Sensor in the Zone has a low battery. If more than one Sensor is in a Zone, you will need to test each Sensor by putting the unit into test mode (see pg. 7 of this manual). It may also be that a Sensor is out of range and cannot make contact with the Control Center.
