AT A GLANCE Thank you for choosing the Driveway Alert Kit from Swann - the unique system which will let you know when people are coming to visit! How does it work? Basically, there are two parts to the Driveway Alert system. 1. The Indoor Alarm Receiver works as an alarm buzzer. It monitors for signals coming from the Alert Sensor, and activates an alert in response to that signal. It also features a series of LED indicators on the front of the unit so you can visually tell where an alert is coming from.

AT A GLANCE Getting to know the Alert Sensor Status LED Groove Passive Infrared Motion Detector Battery compartment Tips The Alert Sensor comes paired out of the box to sensor channel 1 on the Indoor Alarm Receiver. Each sensor channel on the Indoor Alarm Receiver produces a distinct alert sound. Refer to the table below for the alert sound that is emitted by each sensor channel.
SETTING UP Indoor Alarm Receiver Installing batteries The Indoor Alarm Receiver requires 3 x AA batteries (not included) to operate. To install batteries: 1. Push the release tab and lift off battery compartment cover. 2. Insert 3 new "AA" alkaline batteries, matching the polarity markings (+ and -) inside the battery compartment. 3. Put the battery compartment cover back on by pressing down until the release tab clicks into place. Placement There is no requirement to mount the Indoor Alarm Receiver.
SETTING UP Alert Sensor Installing batteries The Alert Sensor requires 3 x AAA batteries (not included) to operate. To install batteries: 1. Use a small Phillips screwdriver to remove the screws from the battery compartment cover, and then lift up the cover. 2. Insert 3 new "AAA" alkaline batteries, matching the polarity markings (+ and -) inside the battery compartment. 3. Screw the battery compartment cover back into place.
SETTING UP For best coverage and to maximize detection, place the Alert Sensor approximately 2 meters / 6 feet off the ground, pointing on a slightly downwards angle. Tips Ideally, the Alert Sensor should only see the entry/exit point (e.g., your driveway), and the only moving objects in front of the sensor should be the cars or people you want to detect (i.e., no obstructions in the field of view).
OPERATING BASICS Adjusting the receiver volume You can change the loudness of the Indoor Alarm Receiver using the Volume button on the back of the receiver. Three volume levels are available: High, Medium and Low. The approximate sound level of each volume setting is shown below.
OPERATING BASICS Pairing the Alert Sensor to a sensor channel The Alert Sensor and Indoor Alarm Receiver in your kit have been factory paired so all you have to do is put batteries in and your devices are ready to use. If for some reason pairing is lost or you want the sensor paired to another sensor channel for a different alert sound, here's how to do it: 1. 2. 3. 4. Place the Alert Sensor faced down to avoid triggering it.
