1. System Installation Planning 
 
 
Home and Away Arm Mode Planning 
The alarm system supports two arming modes: Away Arm and Home Arm. Away Arm mode will 
arm all accessory devices installed in the system to raise alarm when activated; Home Arm mode 
will partial arm the system so that no intruder could get inside the premises without triggering an 
alarm, yet the user can move within the house freely. Plan your device location in advance by 
determine which area should remain unarmed in Home Arm mode, and decide which sensor 
should be set to deactivated in Home Arm mode. 
For more information, please see 7. Programming Mode – Device +/-and 8. Operation. 
 
Device Operating Range 
All devices in the alarm system have an approximate range of 100 feet (33 yards) in typical 
domestic environment. The range may vary depending on different home condition. When 
installing devices, make sure to test the device range before actually mounting the device. 
Tamper Protection 
Your Control Panel and accessory devices are protected from sabotage attempt by a “tamper 
switch,” which is triggered when the device cover is opened, or removed from mounted surface. 
When the tamper switch is triggered, the alarm system will be activated to inform you. To make 
sure the tamper switch functions properly, please make sure the switch is fully depressed against 
the mounting surface when installing your Control Panel or devices. 
 
System Extension 
Aside from the devices included in the package, you can further improve the capability of your 
alarm system by purchasing extra accessories. Including extra PIR Sensor or Door Contract to 
extend your protection area; Remote Keypad for a secondary system operation platform; Smoke 
Detector for fire protection; Temperature Sensor for High/Low Temperature report; and Power 
Switch for energy management and Home Automation. Please check Blaupunkt

devices.

General Device Location Guideline: 
 Avoid mounting the Control Panel and devices close to large metal objects or electrical 
interference source, such as fridge and microwave oven as they could affect signal strength.
 For devices that has tamper protection function, mount on even surface to ensure the tamper 
is fully closed when mounted. For uneven surface, use extra packing material on the back.
