1. Introduction and Registration
This manual will help you install, operate and maintain your Q-Series Alarm System and its accessory devic-
es. You can download the Secure4Home App at Google Play or the Apple Store – it’s free.
IMPORTANT:
Please first read the Quick Start Guide. It contains important information on how to get started with the Q-Series.
1.1 Troubleshooting Problems during or after Registration
If you get an error message or a problem occurs during or after registration, the following information may be
relevant:
Server Connection Error: The Control Panel is not connected to the server. The Control Panel could be either
powered down or might have an internet connection problem. Please first check its AC power and network
status.
• In case of the control panel being mistaken as malware or a virus, please check your rewall settings.
Make sure that the port TCP 5222 is open and included in your firewall exception list.
• Check your router MAC address lter setting and make sure the MAC address of your control panel is
authorized on your router.
• If you are using a dial-up internet connection, please make sure your router supports an ADSL PPPOE
function.
Registration Time Expired: The Control Panel did not complete registration within 15 minutes after
connecting to the server. Please power the Control Panel down and then power it up again.
Invalid MAC Address: Each MAC Address can only be registered once. Otherwise an error message will be dis-
played. If you are the owner of the panel and are certain that the panel has never been registered before, please
contact Blaupunkt..
NOTICE:
The Home Connect Server performs best using a Firefox Browser. Use of an LTE router or a powerline adapter may cause problems.
1.2 Conrmation of Registration
The server will send a confirmation email to your registered email account after you have entered all relevant
information and have chosen your service package (see Chapter 4.11.). Proceed to log in to the server using the
user name and password you just registered. Registration is now complete. If you did not receive a confirmation
email, please check and, if necessary, edit your email address later in your user account settings.

2. Expanding the Security System
You can improve your Smart Home Alarm System by adding sensors and other devices (see illustration
below).
Expanding your system with additional sensors will increase the level of safety and comfort. Add PIR Sensors or
Door Contacts in order to expand your protection area; Remote Keypads for easy remote control; Smoke Detec-
tors for fire protection; Temperature Sensors for temperature updates and Power Switches for energy manage-
ment and Home Automation.

3. Mounting the Devices
NOTICE:
Before mounting the devices, please complete your registration at the Blaupunkt Home Connect Server
(https://eu.bphomeconnect.com/). The Quick Start Guide will help you.
3.1 General Advice for Mounting the Devices
Avoid mounting the Control Panel and Accessory Devices close to large metal objects or electrical interference
sources, such as fridges and microwave ovens, as they could affect the signal strength. Wall material also plays
a great role in signal penetration efficiency, for example, a brick wall will reduce the signal strength a lot more
than a wooden wall.
For devices that have a tamper protection function, mount them on even surfaces to ensure the tamper protec-
tion is fully pushed in when mounted. For uneven surfaces, use suitable material in order to stabilize the device.
3.2. Before mounting: Signal Range-Test (Walk-Test)
All Q-Series accessory devices use a wireless radio protocol to communicate with the Control Panel in a safe
way. This also spares you the extra labour of wiring devices. All devices in the alarm system have an approximate
range of 30 meters in a typical domestic environment. The signal range may vary depending on environmen-
tal conditions. Before installing an accessory device, you should therefore test its signal range at the selected
mounting location first. To test the signal range, use the Walk-Test function of the Blaupunkt Home Connection
Server, then press the device’s test button to transmit the testing signal. Please refer to chapter 4.7.1. for more
information.
3.3. Tamper Protection
Your intrusion protection sensors (e. g. PIR Sensors and Door Contacts) are protected against sabotage attempts
by a “tamper switch,” which is triggered when the device cover is opened or the device is removed. If the tamper
switch is triggered, the sensor will transmit a signal to the Control Panel which will, in turn, notify the user that
the sensor may be either installed incorrectly or has been sabotaged. In order to assure that the tamper switch
works properly, please make sure that the switch is fully depressed when installing your accessory devices.

Door Contact
• The Door Contact should be mounted as
high as possible.
• Do not aim a PIR sensor directly at this
door/window.
• Magnet: higher (on window/door).
Sensor: Lower (on frame). Distance: max.
1,5 cm.
Control Panel
• The Control Panel should be installed in a
hidden area, preferably invisible from the
outside.
• The Control Panel requires Ethernet and
Power connections.
PIR Sensor and PIR Camera
• Mount the PIR Sensor at 1.9 - 2m height for
the best performance. When mounted at
2m height, the PIR sensor has a range of
12m.
• PIR Sensor detection is most eective if the
intruder is moving across its field of view
from the sides, at a right angle. Therefore,
do not mount PIR sensor in a location that
faces the intruder directly. It is preferable to
mount it in a corner of the room.
• Do not mount the PIR Sensor directly
exposed to sunlight, as this may affect the
detection sensitivity.
• Do not point the PIR Sensor at windows,
moving objects or sources of heat, e. g.
re or a boiler.
