Setting Up the Keychain Remote on PS561
Introduction
This guide should help you in quickly installing the X10 KR32A Keychain Remote on your PS561/DS7000 console
Setup
Registering the KR32A Keychain Remote with the PS561 Security Console
- Press and HOLD the ARM button on the KR32A for 5-7 seconds. The LED indicator flashes twice when you release it to confirm the Keychain Remote has generated a new security code.
- Set the slider switch on the Security Console to INSTALL.
- Press ARM. The console chimes once to confirm that the Keychain Remote has been registered.
Testing the Keychain Remote
- Return the console slider switch to the RUN1 or RUN2 position.
- Press ARM on the Keychain Remote. The console chimes once to confirm the system is armed, and the ARM indicator lights.
Note: The Keychain Remote always arms the system instantly--there is no exit or entry delay.
If you successfully registered the remote with the console but are unable to arm the system it means you exceeded the 8 remote control limitation and you will have to clear your other remotes from the console.
Clearing out Remotes and Sensors
How many remote controls can I install?
- Press LIGHTS ON and LIGHTS OFF to turn on and off a light connected to a lamp module--set to the same house and unit code as the PS561 Voice Dialer console.
- Press both red buttons to trip the panic alarm. Press DISARM to stop the alarm.
Note: As with all radio frequency transmitter devices, electrical fields, metal doors, and appliances
can cause interference that decreases the strength of an X10 signal. Re-orienting the remote or security console may increase your ability to send and receive the necessary signals.
