Channel Settings
The AlertMaster System uses special radio signals to communicate
between the console unit and all its accessories. For the accessories
(Door Announcer, Baby Sound Monitor, Audio Alarm Transmitter and
Motion Sensor) to activate the base unit, they all have to be on the same
“channel.” A “DIP switch” is used for channel selection.
Your system and all the accessories have been preset in the factory to a
standard channel setting. Under normal operating conditions, there is
no adjustment necessary.
If your system encounters interference and repeatedly activates itself
for no obvious reason, it may be triggered by a system nearby in your
neighborhood.
If the interference from another AlertMaster Notification System or
other wireless source is present, change channel switch settings on all
components.
1. Unplug AC power and locate DIP switch (a 4-position switch) on the
back of the AlertMaster AL10. Lift rubber cover to access the switch.
2. Open the battery compartment of the doorbell.
3. Change the switch position of each switch on both units using a ball
point pen. All settings need to be identical for the system to work.
4. Change the switch settings on each of your other accessories (Remote
Receiver, Audio Alarm Transmitter, Baby Sound Monitor, etc.) to match
the new channel setting.
5. Replace all covers and return accessories to their proper places. Press
RESET / PAGE button once to reset the unit.

REMARQUES ADDITIONNELLES CONCERNANT LA
SÉCURITÉ POUR LES UTILISATEURS CANADIENS
Les points suivants sont compris dans les exigences CS-03. L’équipement de
branchement standard pour cet appareil est CA11A. Ce produit répond aux
normes techniques en vigueur dans l’industrie Canadienne.
REMARQUE : L’étiquette du ministère canadien des Communications identifie
le matériel certifié. Cette certification signifie que l’appareil est conforme à
certaines exigences de protection, de fonctionnement et de sécurité des réseaux
de télécommunications. Le ministère ne garantit pas que l’appareil fonctionne
à la satisfaction de l’utilisateur. Avant d’installer cet appareil, les utilisateurs
doivent s’assurer qu’ils sont autorisés à se connecter aux installations de la
compagnie locale des télécommunications. L’équipement doit également être
installé en utilisant une méthode acceptable de connexion. Dans certains cas, le
câblage interne de la compagnie associé au fonctionnement particulier de lignes
individuelles peut être prolongé au moyen d’un connecteur certifié (rallonge
de cordon téléphonique). Le client devrait être informé que la conformité
aux conditions énoncées ci-dessus ne peut empêcher la dégradation du
fonctionnement dans certaines situations. Les réparations d’un appareil certifié
doivent être confiées à un centre canadien d’entretien autorisé et désigné par le
fournisseur. La compagnie des télécommunications pourrait exiger de l’utilisateur
qu’il déconnecte l’appareil suite à des réparations ou modifications de l’appareil
effectuées par l’utilisateur ou tout mauvais fonctionnement de l’appareil.
Pour leur propre protection, les utilisateurs doivent s’assurer que les connexions
de mise à la terre de l’alimentation électrique, des lignes téléphoniques et des
tuyaux métalliques internes de la plomberie, le cas échéant, soient toutes reliées
entre elles. Cette précaution est particulièrement importante dans les régions
rurales.
Mise en garde : Les utilisateurs ne devraient pas tenter de réaliser eux-mêmes
ces connexions, mais doivent contacter le service d’inspection des installations
électriques ou un électricien, selon le cas. L’indice d’équivalence de la sonnerie
est une indication du nombre maximum de dispositifs pouvant être connectés
à une interface téléphonique. La terminaison d’une interface peut se composer
d’une combinaison de dispositifs, à la seule condition que le total des indices
d’équivalence de la sonnerie de l’ensemble des dispositifs ne dépasse pas cinq. CONSERVER CES
