1. QUICK START GUIDE
OVERVIEW
This section tells you how to install the EPIR2 system quickly and easily and covers all the pro-
cedures required for full system operation. The alarm system functions via the GSM network, so
you will rst need to purchase a SIM card so you can ‘talk’ to and program your device via your
mobile phone.
How to expand your system with additional wireless devices
Your EPIR2 system has a built-in wireless module providing expansion capabilities to your system
by binding additional ELDES wireless devices to it. However, the EPIR2 system can operate fully
without any wireless devices bound to it.
This section does not cover the procedures for adding wireless devices to the system. If you in-
tend to use the wireless devices with your EPIR2 system, follow the instructions for setting up
the EPIR2 in this section then refer to section 2: HOW TO MANAGE THE WIRELESS DEVICES.
Step-by-step system installation
1.1. How and where to x the holder to the wall
The system should be installed indoors, in stationary environment ONLY. Choose a location
where unauthorised entry is most likely.
234
To prevent false alarms, avoid installing the unit in the following locations:
• With the lens facing direct sunshine, for instance in front of windows
• Places with high temperature uctuations, such as near replaces, boilers, ovens etc
• Anywhere with high dust or air ow
• In an area surrounded by metal or thick walls where the GSM connection may be lost
5After a suitable location for
your EPIR2 is chosen, x the
holder to the wall using the
screws supplied.

EN EPIR2 User Manual v.1.4
1.2. Prepare the SIM card
3
6Place the SIM card in your
mobile phone and disable
the PIN code by following the
appropriate menus on your
mobile phone. This will help
ensure that when you install
the SIM card in the EPIR2 it
will operate correctly.
IMPORTANT RECOMMENDATIONS
• We advise you to choose the same GSM SIM provider for your system as for your mobile
phone. This will ensure the fastest, most reliable SMS/text message delivery service and
phone call connection.
• For maximum system reliability we recommend you do NOT use a Pay As You Go SIM card.
Otherwise, in the event of insucient credit balance on the SIM card, the system would fail
to make a phone call or send messages.
• We also recommend you to disable call forwarding, voice mail/text message reports
on missed/busy calls. Please contact your GSM provider for more details on these ser-
vices and how to disable them.
1.3. How to insert the SIM card
The SIM card must be prepared as described in (1.2) before being inserted into the device.

1.10. How to arm and disarm the system
To arm your system dial the SIM card and wait until it rings three times and then drops the call.
This means the system is now successfully armed.
To disarm the system, dial the SIM card and wait until it rings once and then drops the call. The
system is now successfully disarmed.
In both cases be sure to wait until the system automatically drops your call. Again in both cases
the user will receive a short SMS/text message each time the system is successfully armed or
disarmed.
IMPORTANT: Dialing the SIM card is free of charge as the system drops your call in both cases.
Before arming the system it is necessary to close all doors and windows in the secured area and
move yourself away from the movement detection eld.
Alternatively, you can arm/disarm your EPIR2 system by sending an SMS text message (see
3.HOW TO PROGRAM THE SYSTEM USING YOUR MOBILE PHONE).

1.11. A 15 second delay allows you to leave the premises
When you arm the system via your phone, a keyfob or a keypad, the system will give you a 15
second delay before it activates, giving you time to leaving the premises. You can change the time
delay at any time (see ELDES Conguration Tool software’s Help section).
The red LED on the detector lens will start to blink, indicating the time delay is in operation and
you must leave room. The red light will go o after 15 seconds when the system will be armed.
1.12. Receiving an alarm call
When the detector is armed and motion is detected in the room, the system will send a SMS/text
message to User 1 and then ring the user until the call is answered. If the call is not answered
after several rings (predetermined by your mobile phone operator) the system will hang up. If
the call is not picked up by User 1, the system will ring all the pre-programmed numbers in order
of priority starting with User 2 until a user picks up or the call expires. If the rst user is “busy” or
“out of radio coverage”, the system will also ring the next pre-programmed number. When a call is
answered, the system will activate the remote microphone so you can listen to what is happening
in the building.
You can also program the system to send an SMS/text message to all users (see ELDES Congu-
ration Tool software’s Help section).
1.13. In case of mains power failure
The system will automatically switch to the back–up battery supply in case of mains power
failure. At this time you will receive an SMS/text message warning message. You will also receive
an SMS/text message when the mains power has been restored. Likewise the system will warn
you by SMS/text message when the back-up battery is getting low, just before the system is
switched o.

20
