1.1 General System Overview
CAUTION! 9V battery in the main panel is for power backup purposes only and you
should ensure proper AC power is supplied to the main panel at all times. Difficulty
in disarming the main panel in alarm mode may occur when it is powered by battery
alone. This is not a malfunction, and can be resolved by the use of a fresh 9V battery
and a properly plugged in DC source from the AC/DC adapter included.
(batteries not included)
IMPORTANT! Due to the strong signal of the alarm, we advise that you change the
house code settings following section 4.3 of this manual, if you suspect that one
of your in-range neighbors may also be using this alarm system.
Alarm System Limitations
Even the most advanced alarm systems cannot guarantee 100% protection against
burglary or environmental problems. All alarm systems are subject to possible
compromise or failure-to-warn for a variety of reasons.
*Please note that you may encounter problems with your System if:
• The Sensors are not placed within hearing range of persons sleeping or remote
parts of the premises.
• The Sensors are placed behind doors or other obstacles.
•
Intruders gain access through unprotected points of entry (where sensors are not located).
• Intruders have the technical means of bypassing, jamming, or disconnecting all or
part of the system.
• The power to the sensors is inadequate or disconnected.
• The Sensors are not located in proper environmental/temperature conditions i.e. too
close to a heat source.
* Inadequate maintenance is the most common cause of alarm failure; therefore, test your
system at least once per week to be sure the Sensors and sirens are working properly.
* Although having an alarm system may make you eligible for reduced insurance
premiums, the system is no substitute for insurance. WARNING: Security system
devices cannot compensate for loss of life or property.
1.2 Introduction to the System
The HWS100 Wireless Home Protection System is a high quality security system combined with
user-friendly features that allow you to know the state of security of your home at all times. The
System is managed by a HWS100 main panel, which gathers information from wireless sensors
placed inside and at the entry points of your home. If the HWS100 main panel detects a security
breach, you will be alerted via indicator lights and sounds. For installation and proper use of the
HWS100 main panel, please familiarise yourself with this User Guide.

Section 4 - Installing the Sensors
4.1 Introduction to the Sensors
This package includes 3 wireless Sensors and one Remote System Controller, which will have a pre-
programmed default setting that begins working immediately once the battery is activated.
It is advisable to install the main package first and then personalize the settings once the System is
functioning properly. This section should help you to change the System settings in order to create a
more personal home environment.
4.2 Installing the Sensors
First, determine the location of the sensors.
*NOTE:
- The Sensors should not be easily accessible.
- The Sensors should be placed in the most vulnerable rooms or near key entry points.
- The Sensors should not be placed near extreme temperature sources (ovens, stoves etc.)
or near large metal objects that could interfere with the wireless performance.
- If necessary, change to a different location for better RF performance.
Once you have selected a location for the Sensors, you are ready to begin powering up the System.
4.2.1 Installing the Door/Window Sensor
The Door/Window Sensor consists of two pieces. The sensor detects when a door or a window
is opened. The two parts are fastened near the door or the window. One part functions as the
transmitter and the other as the magnet. Once the Sensor is installed, any abnormality in the
circuit will trigger an alert message that is transmitted to the Main Panel. 1 x Door/Window
Sensor is pre-programmed in Zone 1 and the other one is set in Zone 2; however, the settings
can be adjusted according to your needs. (See 3.3 & 4.3 Zone Settings).
A. Powering up the Door/Window Sensor
- Remove the battery cover; insert new batteries noting the
polarity as shown in the diagram below; replace the cover.
Requires 2 - AAA batteries (not included).
- Low Battery indication, If the batteries need to be replaced, a
slow flashing of the RED LED will indicate low battery.
B. Installing the Door/Window Sensor
- Mount the transmitter on a fixed surface such as a door or a window frame.
- Mount the magnet on a movable surface such
as a door or a window.
- The transmitter side marked with a “ > / < ”
must at same position in both sides per
diagrams
- The transmitter and the magnet must be no
more than 5mm apart.
14

C. Mounting with the Double-Sided Adhesive
- Ensure the mounting surface is clean.
- Peel back one layer of the protective film and attach it to the transmitter.
- Peel back the remaining layer of protective film and press the transmitter firmly in place
against the mounting surface until firmly attached.
- Repeat to attach the magnet.
4.2.2 Installing the Motion Sensor
Motion Sensor is designed to sense movement in a given area. Notes:
It is best if pets are not allowed onto higher surfaces so that the sensors
are not triggered unnecessarily (no more than one meter high).
A. Powering up the Motion Sensor
Remove the battery cover; insert a 9V battery noting the polarity as shown in diagram below;
replace cover. Requires 1 x 9V battery (not included).
- Low Battery indication, if the batteries need to be replaced, a slow flashing of the RED LED
will indicate low battery (not including entry / exit delay flashing).
B. Installing the Motion Sensor
- First, determine the location of the Motion Sensor.
*NOTE:
- The Sensor should not be easily accessible.
- The Sensor should be placed in the most vulnerable rooms or near key entry points.
- Place the Sensor on a sturdy surface between 1.8m to 2.4mm (6ft to 8ft) from the floor.
- The Sensor should not be placed near extreme temperature sources (ovens, stoves etc.)
- The Sensor should not be placed in direct sunlight.
- Do not install the Sensor outdoors or behind partitions.
- If necessary, change to a different location for better RF performance
C. Sensor Sensitivity
IMPORTANT! The Motion Sensor is designed with a power saving program. The Motion
Sensor will remain inactive for 3 minutes after each detection. Thus, during system set
up, please bear this feature in mind.
The sensitive of the motion sensor is adjustable. Change the setting by placing the connector
on either the “High”, “Middle” or “Low” position. When the sensitivity is set to “Low”, more
movement is required to trigger the sensor. It is recommended to set the sensitivity to “Low”
and perform a “Walk Test” (Described in part D) . If the walk test result is satisfactory, the
sensitivity does not require to be adjusted further. If the walk test result shows the sensitivity is
too low, then you can change the sensitivity setting to “Middle” or “High” accordingly.
Please perform the walk test after changing the sensitivity setting.
Section 4 - Installing the Sensors
15

D. Walk Test
After mounting the sensor at the desired location, it is important to perform
a walk test to determine if the sensor is detecting the correct area.
In order to control how far the sensor can detect motion, you can adjust
the angle of the sensor. To reduce the detection range, simply move the
sensor downward and move the sensor upward to maximum the range.
NOTE: Enter into Alert mode before you perform the walk test, so that the
alarm is not triggered.
You should walk in the area that you would like the sensor to monitor. If movement is detected
the red light inside the unit will appear. If the red
light does not appear, adjust the mounting angle
accordingly. Perform the walk test again after
3 minutes. Repeat this procedure until your motion
is detected. There should be no movement in the
detected area during the 3 minutes.
*TIPS: The sensor should not face towards direct
sunlight, be placed near heat or cold producing
devices (i.e. A/C, fans, ovens, heaters etc.) that may
cause false triggers.
Also perform the walk test in the undesired detection area to ensure movement is not detected.
E. Mounting using Screws
- Hold the enclosed mounting template against the wall at the selected location and mark the
points for drilling.
- Drill the holes and insert wall plugs.
- Attach the bracket to the mounting surface with the screws provided.
- Attach the Motion Sensor to the mounting bracket.

security system to avoid interference with other systems.
In most cases you will NOT need to change the factory settings of the house security code. If the
Main Panel and sensors activate intermittently or do not work at all, you may be able to solve the
problem by changing the house security codes on all system modules.
Step 1: There are 4 jumpers/dip-switches on each device. Remove the jumper compartment cover,
then pull out the jumper to change the house security code setting and make sure the jumpers on the
Main Panel and the sensors match exactly.
Step 2: There is one jumper on each sensor. First determine the location of the sensor in your
home, then remove the jumper compartment cover. Pull out the jumper and reassign it to the target
zone (zone 1 to 8), replace and screw the cover to complete the zone code setting.
