Planning Sensor Types & Locations
Device Locations
Control Panel
Locate the panel where alarm sounds can be heard and is easily
accessible for operation.
Do not install the panel near a window or door where it can be
reached easily by an intruder.
Remote Handheld Touchpad
Locate Remote Handheld Touchpads where they will be con-
venient and offer quick access to the user.
Keychain Touchpad
Keychain Touchpads attach to the owner’s key ring or can be
conveniently carried.
X-10 Modules
The system can control up to 8 individual unit numbers on
Lamp, Wallswitch, Appliance, and Universal Modules.
House Code and Unit Numbers
Each device (lamp, appliance, etc.) controlled by the panel
must have an identification setting. The modules use two dials
to set identification codes: one with letters A through P and one
with numbers 1 through 16.
The lettered dial sets the house code, which enables the system
to differentiate this home from other homes in the area. Set all
modules (except the remote siren) and the panel to the same
house code.
Note
All Lamp Modules with the same house code will turn on
or flash as a group during an alarm or when operating the
“Light” button on a Keychain Touchpad.
The numbered dial sets the unit number, which identifies and
lets you control a specific device. Each device must have a
unique unit number (1-8) to be individually controlled. For
example, lights and appliances operated from a Remote Hand-
held Touchpad or operated by a sensor; or lights programmed
to go on during the entry/exit delay or at scheduled times.
Note
When unit numbers 9-16 are used for lamp modules,
they can only be controlled by an all on or all off com-
mand.
A lamp will flash to the arming level if its unit number is
set to 10. A lamp set to unit number 10 will flash once if
the panel is disarmed, twice if doors & windows are
armed, etc.
The remote siren can be set to any unit number to hear
alarm sounds. Set it to unit number 9 to also hear arming
level beeps, status beeps, and trouble beeps.
Do not use a lamp module to control appliances. Use an
appliance module, since the wattage rating on Lamp
Modules is less than on Appliance Modules.
To Fill Out the Home Control Planning Table:
1. Set the house code on all modules (except the remote
siren) to the same letter.
Note
The house code instructions that come with the Power-
horn Siren won’t work with this panel. Follow the house-
code instructions given here.
2. Set the Remote Siren house code to the next alphabeti-
cal letter. For example, if you chose house code B in
step 1 above, set the remote siren house code to C.
3. Set the module unit numbers.
Note
If you are using a Universal Module to operate a device,
make sure to assign a unique unit number to this module,
choosing from 1-8.
4. List the location of the lamp or appliance in the Loca-
tion column of the Home Control Planning Table.
5. Write the location of each Lamp Module on an adhe-
sive note and label the module.
6. Decide if the device should be activated by sensors,
entry/exit delay, time, or a combination. An example of
sensor activation is using a motion sensor to turn on a
light. Record the information in the appropriate col-
umns.
