It has been type tested and found to comply with the limits for remote control security devices in accordance with the specifications in Sub-Parts B and C of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by unplugging the equipment, try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures. · Reorient the antenna of the radio/TV experiencing the interference. · Relocate the console with respect to the radio/TV. · · Move the console away from the radio/TV. Plug the console into an outlet on a different electrical circuit from the radio/TV experiencing the interference. If necessary, consult your local X10 Dealer for additional suggestions. Your console's telephone dialer is designed to conform to federal regulations, and you can connect it to most telephone lines. However, each telephone or telephone device that you connect to the telephone line draws power from the telephone line. We refer to this power draw as the device's ringer equivalence number, or REN. If you use more than one telephone or other device on the line, add up all the RENs. If the total is more than five, your telephones might not ring. In rural areas, a total REN of three might impair ringer operation. If ringer operation is impaired, remove one of the devices from the line.

You must, upon request, provide the FCC registration number and the REN to your telephone company. Both numbers are shown on the bottom of the console. The telephone portion of your security console has been tested and found to comply with all applicable UL and FCC standards. In the unlikely event that your console causes problems on the telephone line, the telephone company can disconnect your service. The telephone company attempts to notify you in advance. If advance notice is not practical, the telephone company notifies you as soon as possible and advises you of your right to file a complaint with the FCC. Also, the telephone company can make changes to its lines, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the operation of this console. The telephone company notifies you of these changes in advance, so you can take the necessary steps to prevent interruption of your telephone service. Note: The security functions of this system have not been tested by Underwriters Laboratories. 2 3 INTRODUCTION Your X10 Powerhouse Monitor Plus Security System lets you feel secure. The system includes a security console with a digital communicator that connects to a professional digital monitoring station in the event of a break in. The system includes two Door/ Window Sensors, a Motion Sensor, a Lamp Module, and two Remote Controls: one hand held, one keychain. Features: Quick Installation: The Monitor Plus security system installation is a snap. The system is easy to install and use. Wireless Sensors: The Door/Window Sensors, and Motion Sensor are completely wireless and communicate to the base console via radio frequency. Built in Digital Communicator: Calls the monitoring station in the event of a break in. Fully expandable: You can protect up to 16 zones with your security system, plus you can control lights and appliances by Remote Control, to start a complete home automation system. Panic Alarm: Lets you sound the alarm without calling the monitoring station. Automatic lighting control: When the Monitor Plus Security System is armed, an automatic timer can be put into action which turns lights, stereos, TVs, etc. on and off at random times to make your home look and sound lived in. X10 Home Automation compatible: Adding X10 Home Automation products such as Appliance Modules, replacement Wall Switches and Lamp Modules etc., is easy with this system, since it is already configured to control the full range of X10 Home Automation products. Self checking, fully monitored system: Every sensor installed is selfchecking, and if any fail to report in to the base console at the correct time interval, the sensor's zone indicator on the alarm console flashes to alert you. If you then try to arm the system, a special warning tone is sounded, and you must press a button to acknowledge and bypass the warning before you can complete the arming sequence. Battery backed-up console: If the power fails or is cut, the house lights will, of course, stop working - but the security system doesn't, with all features including telephone dialing and alarm siren still ready for action using an easy to replace 9V alkaline backup battery in the console. An indicator on the console warns you when the battery needs changing. SETTING UP THE CONSOLE Choosing a location for the console Dining Room Hallway Living Room Kitchen Study Before you select a location for the Monitor Plus console, think of the areas in your home where you would be most likely to use the Remote Controls, Door/ Window Sensors, and Motion Sensors. Select a location that is central to those areas and that is within the console's range (up to 100 feet). Here are some other things to consider when choosing the console's location: · It must be close to a modular telephone jack so you can easily connect the telephone dialer. · The console's loud alarm might frighten you if you trip it while you are next to it, so it is best to place the console in a large open area (like a living room). But, you should also place it close to a window so neighbors are more likely to hear the alarm. 4 5 SETTING UP REMOTE CONTROLS Setting up the console If you already have a phone plugged into the jack, use the included 'T' adapter to plug the console and telephone into the same jack. This procedure initializes each Remote Control so that the Console recognizes its commands. PANIC ARM HOME ARM AWAY PANIC DISARM DISARM Key Chain Remote Control 1. Set the INSTALL/RUN switch on the console to INSTALL (located under the flip up door). 2. Press ARM on the key chain. The Console emits a tone. BATTERY SECURITY LIGHT ON OFF ARM PANIC 1. Slide off the battery compartment cover and clip a 9V alkaline battery onto the battery contacts. 2. Slide the battery into the battery compartment and replace the cover. If your telephone wiring does not have a modular jack, you can: · Update the wiring yourself. Most good electrical stores sell adapters to convert older wiring methods to modular wiring. Have the telephone company update the wiring for you. DISARM LIGHTS ON LIGHTS OFF A· O· C · · BRIGHT DIM M · E · K I· G · DELAY ENTRY INSTANT · 3. Set the console's slide switch back to RUN1 or RUN2. Note: The telephone company charges to install the necessary jacks. The USOC number of the jacks to be installed is RJ11C (or RJ11W for a wall plate installation). 3. Plug one end of the supplied telephone cord into the console and the other end of the telephone cord into a modular telephone jack. Warning: To reduce the risk of electric shock, never plug a telephone cord into a telephone line jack until the other end of the cord is plugged into the telephone device. 4. Plug the console into an AC outlet which is not controlled by a wall switch. You can use the console with either pulse or touch-tone phone systems. Security/Home Automation Remote Control 1. Install four AAA alkaline batteries in the battery compartment. 2. Set the INSTALL/RUN switch on the console to INSTALL (located under the flip up door). 3. Press ARM HOME or ARM AWAY on the security/home automation remote control. The Console emits a tone. 4. Set the consoles slide switch back to RUN1 or RUN2. Note: If you do not hear a tone, press the CODE button (located on the front under the label) with a pencil, then reinstall the remote as described above. 4. To set up additional key chain remote controls (up to eight), repeat steps 1 and 2. Note: If you do not hear a tone, remove the batteries and then hold down the ARM button for 3 seconds. Refit the batteries and press ARM again. The LED indicator will flash twice. You can now install the key chain remote as described above. You can install any combination of Remote Control types for a total of up to sixteen Remote Controls. For example, you can install eight key chain remote controls and eight security/home automation remote controls or any other combination for a total of sixteen. 6 7 SETTING UP DOOR/WINDOW SENSORS Installing Door/Window Sensors We recommend that you purchase enough sensors to protect the front and back door and any windows that are obscured from view or easily accessible (including basement windows). Initializing Door/Window Sensors This Procedure initializes the Door/ Window Sensors so that the Console recognizes signals from the sensor. 1. Install two AA alkaline batteries in the battery compartment. 4. Press TEST again. The Console's next unused zone indicator lights and the Console beeps to indicate it has accepted the sensor. Note: If you do not hear a tone, remove the batteries from the sensor and then hold down the TEST button for 3 seconds. Refit the batteries and install the sensor again as described above. 5. Set the switch on the front of the Door/Window Sensor to MIN if you are using it to protect a window or MAX if you are using it to protect a door. 6. Place one of the enclosed numbered stickers on the sensor to show its zone number. To set up additional sensors (up to 16) repeat steps 1-6. If you mount the magnetic switches on metal doors or metal door frames you should ensure that they are no more then 3/16" apart. On wooden surfaces they can be up to 3/8" apart. Do not mount the magnet directly onto a metal surface, use a wood or plastic spacer. Testing Door/Window Sensors To test a Door/Window Sensor: 1. Set the INSTALL/RUN switch on the console to RUN2 (located under the flip-up door). 2. Open the door or window. The light on the sensor blinks, the console chimes and the zone light for the sensor lights. If the light on the sensor does not blink and the console doesn't chime, check that the Door/Window Sensor magnet and switch are correctly aligned with the arrows facing each other. DELAY MAX MIN TEST 2. Set the INSTALL/RUN switch on the console to INSTALL (located under the flip up door). 1. Mount the Door/Window Sensor and the magnetic switch in the intended location using the supplied screws or double sided tape. 2. Install the magnet using the supplied screws or double sided tape. ...
