Before connecting or operating the Motion Sensor,
please read these instructions carefully and save
this manual for future reference.
Congratulations
The GE Choice Alert™Wireless Alarm System is one
of the most affordable and expandable wireless
alarm systems available. You’ll discover the system
offers many features typically found in custom
installed Alarm systems.
The Choice Alert system is reliable and easy-to-use.
With Choice Alert you can select from a line of Sensors
and Accessories; start small and expand as you
need, or create a system that meets all your needs.
The Choice Alert System is protected by Priority
Code Selection technology which provides increased
security and trouble-free wireless connections. It
also guarantees the Control Center will only respond
to signals from your Sensors in and around your home,
and prevents anyone from tampering with
your system.
The user manual explains in simple steps how to
install, use and care for your new Choice Alert
Motion Sensor.
If you have any questions or would like
additional information please visit our web site

Important safeguards
PreCautions
1. Do not attempt to disassemble the Motion Sensor,
unless described in the user’s manual. There are no
user serviceable parts.
2. Handle with Care – Avoid striking or shaking.
Improper use or storage could damage the Motion
Sensor. Modifying or tampering the device or its
internal components can cause a malfunction and
void the Motion Sensor’s warranty.
3. If you feel the Motion Sensor or any part of the
Choice Alert system is not operating correctly or
as described, please contact Customer Service for
assistance (1-800-654-8483).

Introduction
The Motion Sensor is designed to be used indoors or
out. When mounted properly it can monitor large or
open areas such as entrances, living rooms, family
rooms, driveways, backyards, walkways, workshops,
etc. When the Sensor detects motion, it will transmit
a signal to the Control Center. The Zone selection and
settings on the Control Center determine if an alarm or
an alert sounds.

Preparing the Motion Sensor for Installation
The Motion Sensor consists of 2 parts – The Sensor
(Transmitter) and the wall mount. Before installing,
remove the screw from the battery door on the back
of the Sensor. You’ll need to attach the battery leads
to a “9V” battery (not included); Take care to note the
polarity markings. Replace the battery cover and
secure screw. An Alkaline “9V” battery in the Motion
Sensor can last up to 9 months,
Before mounting the Motion sensor, you’ll need to
assign the Sensor to a zone on the Control Center.
Follow these steps to assign a Sensor to a Zone.
Step 1 – Press and hold the Learn button on the
Control Center for three seconds. After the
Control Center sounds a long beep, release the
Learn button.
Step 2 – Press the Zone button (1, 2, 3 or 4) for the
Zone you want to assign to the Motion Sensor.
The LED indicator for that Zone will begin to flash.
Step 3 – Release the Zone button.
Note: Zone 4 is for dedicated alerts only. Sensors in this Zone
will not trigger an alarm or chime.
Step 4 – Activate the Motion Sensor

7
- To activate the Motion Sensor, press the Learn
button located inside the battery compartment,
or if mounted wave your hand in front of the
Sensor (the red LED indicator will flash inside lens
area in front of the Motion Sensor).
Testing a Sensor or your system
Once all the Sensors have been assigned to Zones
in the Control Center you can now test your system.
Ensure the Control Center can receive the signal
from the intended location of the Sensor before
permanently mounting a Sensor.
Step 1 - To place Control Center in Test mode
unplug AC adapter and remove batteries.
Step 2 - Press and hold the ‘Mute’ button and plug
the AC adapter back into the Control Center. When
all the LED indicators turn on, release the Mute
button. The Control Center is now in Test Mode and
any Sensor can now be tested in any Zone.

Step 3 - Set the Notification Mode to switch ‘Alert’
position and begin activating Sensors one at a time.
Note: The sensor has a LED that flashes to show when the
sensor has triggered and transmitted to the main unit.
Step 4 - When testing is complete, unplug the AC
adapter, then plug the AC adapter back in and
reinstall batteries. This returns the Control Center
to standard operation mode.
Note: The Control Center will automatically return to standard
operation mode after 5 hours.
Installing the Sensor
Use the ball-head mount to mount the Sensor. The
minimum spacing recommended is 5-6 ft, depending
on where you want to mount the Motion Sensor. Once
the location is selected, before mounting you should
perform a manual test to confirm the Motion Sensor
is within range of Control Center. Refer to the Testing
a Sensor section on pg 7. Mount the ball-head joint to
the location with screws provided. Once the ball-head
joint is mounted to the wall, slide the back of the
sensor onto the ball-head joint. The mounting angle
can be adjusted.

Erasing the Sensor from a Zone
Note: If you need to remove the Sensor from a Zone, the
system will erase the entire Zone, so any other Sensors will
need to be put back into that particular Zone.
Step 1 - To erase a Zone, press and hold the
Learn button on the Control Center. The unit will
beep once.
Step 2 - While holding the Learn button, press and
hold the Zone button to be erased. After five
seconds the Control Center will sound two beeps
and the Zone LED indicator will flash twice.
Step 3 - Release all buttons. The Zone has
been erased.
Note: The Zone/Motion Sensor cannot be erased if:
-The Zone has been triggered for an Alert or alarm. The
Sensor/Zone must be reset.
-There is loss of signal from the Sensor to the Control
Center (such as low battery, or Sensor is out of range).
-The system is armed.
The Control Center will sound three beeps to indicate it could
not erase the Zone.
Low Battery Indicator
The Control Center continuously monitors all the
Sensors. If the Control Center does not receive a signal
from any Sensor it will begin rapidly flashing the Zone
LED indicator . This indicates one or more Sensors in
the Zone may have low battery power and are unable
to transmit a signal the necessary distance. If all
batteries and/or Sensors are installed at the same
time into a Zone, it is recommended to replace the
batteries in all Sensors in the Zone.

10
However, you can check the Motion Sensor status
independently by placing the Control Center in Test
mode (see Testing a Sensor on page 7) and trigger
the Sensor separately. If mounted, wave hand in front
of Sensor, or press activation button for two seconds
inside battery compartment. If the Sensor does
not trigger an alert then replace the battery with a
new one.
Note: The Sensor detection system is ‘range dependant’,
which means Sensors located closer to the Control Center
may seem to have batteries that last longer than those
Sensors at a greater distance. Also, keep in mind, because the
Motion Sensor is continually checking for activity the battery
life is less than the lithium cell batteries in the other Sensors.
