All Sensors are wirelessly linked to the Hub.
In the event of alarm activation, for example, when a Sensor is triggered, a push
notification will automatically be sent to you and other pre-authorized users.
The system can be controlled and monitored both on-site using the remote control
supplied and remotely with the DreamCatcher Life app on the App Store and
Google Play.
The system can easily be expanded to include up to 50 wireless sensors and 10
remote controls.

set of sensors (Sensor in Arm Zone and 24-Hour Zone, for example, door/
window contacts) to be Armed, allowing the occupier freedom of movement
within the property.

Door/ Window Contact
Door/window contacts are set to ‘Armed’ zone by default and are ideal for
protecting entry/exit points such as front doors, back doors, and windows. When
the system is Armed (Away Mode) and the door/window contact is triggered
(magnet separated from the transmitter), the hub internal siren will sound
immediately and send a push notication with the sensor name to its registered
users.

Important: The Hub does not support 5GHz band WiFi. If a dual-band (5GHz and
2.4GHz) router is used, make sure to connect to the 2.4GHz WiFi instead of the
5GHz's. Make sure your smart phone is connected to the local WiFi network and
then follow the steps in the app to connect the hub to the router.

SOS Alarm
System Status
Arm (Away Mode)
All sensors will detect for anomalies during this mode. The hub internal siren will
sound immediately when a sensor is triggered. You and other pre-authorized users
will receive push notications on your phones.
This mode is suitable when the property is unoccupied. It can be set from the
remote control or app.
Home (Part Arm)
The hub stops receiving alarm signals from all Home Zone sensors during this
mode. This allows you and your family to move freely inside your home without
triggering an unwanted alarm.
Note: The door/window sensor in this kit has been set to Arm zone by default, you can
change its zone mode on the “Accessory” section of the App.
This mode is recommended for when someone is at home. It can be set from the remote
control or app.
Disarm
All sensors will not be activated except 24-Hour Zone sensors. All 24-Hour Zone
sensors will trigger the alarm regardless of system status.

Zone Mode
Arm Zone
Sensors set to Armed Zone are activated when the system is in Away (Full Arm) or
Home Arm (Part Arm) status. We recommend setting window/door sensors to this
zone as they usually secure the perimeter of the house.
Home Zone
Sensors set to Home Zone are only activated when the system is in Away (Full
Arm) status. During Home Arm mode, these sensors can not activate the alarm on
triggered. We recommend setting PIR motion sensors to this zone as they usually
secure the interior of the house.
24-Hour Zone
Sensors set to 24-Hour Zone will activate the alarm when triggered, regardless of
the alarm status at the time (away or disarmed).
Delay Zone
Sensors set to Delay Zone will work similarly to Armed Zone sensors. However,
these sensors will only activate the alarm after a set alarm delay time* when
triggered.
* Entry Delay Time: you can set this delay time on OV-300 [Settings]-[Delay
Settings]-[Entry Delay].
Note: Optional Smoke, Gas Leakage or Water Flood Sensors are automatically registered as
24-Hour Zone Sensors and cannot be changed to other Zone. Any Motion or Door/ Window
Sensor paired to the Hub by pressing the Tamper Switch will also register as a 24-Hour Zone
sensor.
