LCD REMOTE CONTROL TRANSCEIVER:
A. BATTERY CHANGING:
Depending on the usage, the remote batteries should be changed at least once a year in the one way
remote and once every 4-5 months for the two-way remote.
The 1-way remote, (E-9s) is powered by a pair of 3V, CR2016 batteries. These batteries are available
at most locations batteries are sold and can be replaced by the user.
Battery Level Indicator (2-way remote)
The Battery Level indicator has three level indicators that serve as a visual indication of battery charge.
When the battery reaches a low charge level that requires changing, the remote control will generate a
single notification chirp, and the Battery Level indicator will flash continuously. If the battery voltage is
LOW, the range of the remote will be reduced by 50% to conserve battery life. The two way remote
requires 2, 3 Volt CR2032 batteries. The operation lives of these batteries are affected by many factors
including, temperature, usage, back-light ON time and programmable “in range status settings”. Do not
allow these batteries to corrode or become wet for any extended period of time.

E9 OP REV.A1 8
NOISE ABATEMENT CIRCUIT: Your system has a “Noise Abatement Circuit”. It prevents annoying
repetitive trigger sequences due to faulty door pin switches or environmental conditions such as
thunder, jackhammers airport noise, etc.
Here’s how “Noise Abatement Circuit” works: The alarm triggers five times. Each time, the same
sensor or switch has triggered the alarm; the “Noise Abatement Circuit” will interpret this pattern of
triggers as a false alarm. After the third trigger, the “Noise Abatement Circuit” ignores, or bypasses,
that sensor or switch until a different sensor or switch is trigger.
“Noise Abatement Circuit” covers doors (Hood/Trunk) differently: If the alarm is triggered by an open
door for Three full cycles, the doors will be bypassed until the trigger ceases.

Warning: Some batteries may contain Perchlorate
What is Perchlorate? Perchlorate is both a naturally occurring and manmade contaminant increasingly found in groundwater,
surface water and soil. Most perchlorate manufactured in the U.S. is used as an ingredient in solid fuel for rockets and missiles. In
addition, perchlorate-based chemicals are also used in the construction of highway safety flares, fireworks, pyrotechnics, explosives,
common batteries, and automobile restraint systems. Perchlorate contamination has been reported in at least 20 states.
Perchlorate greatly impacts human health by interfering with iodide uptake into the thyroid gland. In adults, the thyroid gland helps
regulate the metabolism by releasing hormones, while in children; the thyroid helps in proper development. Perchlorate is becoming
a serious threat to human health and water resources.“Perchlorate Material – Special handling may apply.”For more
