Questions

When I opened a door or window, the alarm did not go off. What could cause this?

Answers

1. Check that the console's slide switch is set to RUN1 or RUN2.
2. Check that the system is armed.
3. Check to see if the alarm trips when you press TEST on the Door/Window Sensor.
4. If the alarm does not trip when you press TEST, check that the indicator on the sensor comes on when you press TEST.

If the indicator does not come on, replace the battery and reinstall the sensor if necessary.
