When viewed from the front (the side with the logo and the

openings for the siren), the positive terminal should be on

the right.

d) Replace the table stand by sliding upward onto the main body

of the Base.

NOTE: LED will illuminate brieﬂy when Battery is ﬁrst connected.

Connect Power Adapter

• Do not use an electrical outlet that is controlled by a switch.

• Insert the power adapter plug fully into the jack on the back of

the Base. Plug the power adapter into the wall outlet.

CAUTION: RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN

INCORRECT TYPE. DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES PROPERLY.

NOTE: Use only LifeShield LS220 Rechargeable Battery supplied with

your Base. Use only PSC0101 Power Supply. Do not use any other

adapter.

Replacement battery packs are also available through the

LifeShield’s Customer Support at 1-888-392-2044 or on-line at

www.LifeShield.com.

Place the power adapter cord so that it does not create a trip hazard,

or become pinched and create an electrical hazard.

Connect Base to the Internet

(and optionally to Telephone Line)

Connecting the Base

a) Connect the Ethernet cable between an available port on your

router and the back of the Base.

b) Optionally connect the telephone cord to the Base and

telephone wall jack. The telephone line provides a backup

path for alarm communications if your internet connection is

not functioning.

When Using a DSL Modem

Plug a DSL ﬁlter into the telephone line splitter (which is in turn

plugged into a wall phone jack). Plug one end of a telephone cord

into the DSL ﬁlter and the other end into the telephone line jack in

the Base. Connect a second telephone cord from your router into the

telephone splitter.

harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment

generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if

not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may

cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,

there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular

installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to

radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the

requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the equipment there is a

label that contains, among other information, a product identiﬁer in

wiring and telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC

Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA.

Registration No.: Found on the bottom of the unit.

The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this is used to determine

the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line.

Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not

ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas,

the sum of RENs should not exceed ﬁve (5.0). To be certain of the

represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a

REN of 0.3).

telephone company will notify you in advance that a temporary

discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance notice isn’t

practical, the telephone company will notify you as soon as possible.

if you believe it is necessary.

The telephone company may make changes in its facilities,

equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the operation
