SECTION 1 – GETTING STARTED
1.1 General system overview
CAUTION! The 9V battery in the Smart Halo Panel is for power back-up purposes only, and the unit should be supplied
with mains power (through the AC adaptor) at all times.
Difficulty in disarming the Smart Halo Panel in ARM mode may occur when it is powered by the back-up battery
alone. This is not a malfunction, and can be resolved by the use of a fresh 9V battery and mains power supplied through
the AC adaptor included.
Due to the strong signal of the alarm, we advise that you change the House Security Code settings
(explained in Section 4.3), if you suspect that one of your in-range neighbours may also be using
this type of 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 siren is not placed within hearing range or is in a remote part 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 acceptable operating areas e.g. 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 ensure the sensors and siren(s) 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.

4.2 Installing the Sensors
First, determine the location of the sensors.
*Note: The sensors should be placed:
- where they are not easily accessible.
- in the most vulnerable rooms or near key entry points.
- away from extreme temperature sources (radiators, ovens, stoves etc.) and large metal objects that could interfere
with the wireless performance.
- where better RF performance can be achieved (if necessary).
Once you have selected a location for the sensors, the system can be powered up.
4.2.1 Installing the Door/Window Sensor
The Door/Window Sensor consists of two parts, a transmitter and a magnet. Once this sensor is installed, and the two
parts are fastened onto the door or window, the sensor will trigger and transmit a message to the Smart Halo Panel
when the door or window is opened. One Door/Window Sensor is pre-programmed in Zone 1 and the other one is set
in Zone 2; however, these settings can be adjusted according to your requirements.
A. Powering up the the Door/Window Sensor
• Remove the battery cover; insert new batteries noting the polarity as shown in the
diagram below and replace the cover. (Requires 2 x AAA batteries)
• Low battery indication: If the batteries need to be replaced, the RED LED on the
transmitter will flash slowly.

SECTION 4 – INSTALLING THE SENSORS
4.1 Introduction to the Sensors
This package includes 3 wireless sensors which 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 personalise 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.

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.
• Ensure the >/< marks on the sides of the transmitter and magnet
match up as shown in the diagram.
17
• The transmitter and the magnet must be no more than 5mm apart
C. Mounting with the double-sided adhesive pad
• 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
The Motion Sensor is designed to sense movement in a given area.
Note: It is best if pets are not allowed onto higher surfaces so that the sensors are not triggered unnecessarily (no
more than 1 metre high).
A. Powering up the Motion Sensor
• Remove the battery cover, insert and connect a 3V (CR123A) battery as shown in diagram below and replace the
cover. Requires 1 x 3V (CR123A) battery
• Low battery indication: If the batteries need to be replaced, the RED LED will flash (not including entry / exit delay
flashing).
B. Installing the Motion Sensor
First, determine the location of the Motion Sensor.
*Note: The Sensor should be placed:
- in the most vulnerable rooms or near key entry points.
- on a solid surface between 1.8m to 2.4mm (6ft to 8ft) from the floor.
-
away from extreme temperature sources (radiators, ovens, stoves etc.
)
- away from direct sunlight.
- indoors only and not behind partitions
- where better RF performance can be achieved (if necessary)
C. Sensor sensitivity
IMPORTANT! The Motion Sensor is designed with a power saving program
and will remain inactive for 3 minutes after each detection. Please bear this in
mind during system set up.
The sensitivity of the Motion sensor is adjustable and can be changed by
setting the connector, found in the battery compartment, 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 further adjustment. If the
walk test result shows the sensitivity is too low, then the sensitivity can be set to “Middle” or “High” as required. It is
recommended that a walk test be conducted after each change in sensitivity setting. Test the Motion Sensor by
pressing the test button inside the battery compartment.
