Console Controls and Functions
The Console is one of three Grid Controllers (GCs) — Base, Console and Grid Extender — that communicate with each
other and with the Sensors in its coverage area.
It also provides controls for managing security and telephone functionality of the LifeShield Home Security system.

t
Place the Console in a location
that is convenient for you to arm
and disarm your system, such as
by your front door or garage door
entrance. For maximum wireless
coverage, place in a different
room than the Base or
Grid Extender, ideally on an
interior wall.
When one of the GCs, such as
the Base, is connected to a
phone line, the Console also
serves as a full-featured
speaker phone.
i
It is recommended that if you
have phone service all GCs,
including the Console, be
connected to a phone line to
create a backup or secondary
communication path to central
monitoring.
Moving the Console to a differ-
ent area or room of your home,
once the system is installed,
could disrupt your coverage. Al-
ways verify system operation
after such a move by faulting
each of your Sensors to verify
they are still within the coverage
area of one of the GCs.
