Operation and settings

Alarm panel modes

Away Arm: the panel is monitoring. If an accessory is triggered, the panel sounds the alarm.
Stay Arm: for when you are at home. In this mode only certain zones are monitored and can trigger the alarm.
Disarm: the panel is not monitoring. Only the SOS button or an accessory set to "24h Active" can then trigger the alarm.
SOS: in an emergency, press the SOS button. The panel then contacts the emergency contact and sends an alarm notification.

Settings per accessory

For each accessory, choose one of these accessory modes:

Stay Arm Active: when the panel is in Stay Arm, this sensor becomes active and the panel sounds the alarm. Recommended for sensors at main entrances, windows, balconies and the outer boundary of your home.
Away Arm Active: when the panel is in Away Arm, this sensor becomes active and the panel sounds the alarm. Recommended for indoor sensors, such as in hallways and bedrooms.
24h Active: the sensor always triggers the alarm as soon as it is activated. Recommended for the SOS button, smoke detector, gas sensor, carbon monoxide sensor, water sensor and the like.
Off: the sensor never triggers the alarm.
Doorbell: when you trigger the sensor or press the doorbell, the panel plays a "Ding-dong" at any time.
24h Silent: the sensor always triggers the alarm as soon as it is activated, but the speaker stays silent.
Stay Arm Active (no delay): when the panel is in Away Arm or Stay Arm, the sensor becomes active and triggers the alarm immediately. Recommended for main entrances, windows, balconies and the outer boundary of your home.
Away Arm Active (no delay): when the panel is in Stay Arm, this sensor becomes active without the alarm going off. Recommended for indoor areas such as the hall and the bedroom, where the alarm sounds immediately without delay.

You can have a sensor work in Stay Arm, in Away Arm, in both modes or 24h Active. If, for example, you do not want a sensor to trigger the alarm while you are at home, set that sensor to the Away mode. If you then set the panel to Stay Arm, the alarm does not go off; in Away Arm mode it does.

Managing accessories in the app

Making calls with the panel

Making a call yourself

On the home screen, press "CALL" to open the "Call" screen. Then follow the buttons on the screen, such as "Call", "Redial", "Backspace", "Back" and "Hang up".

You cannot make calls when there is a GSM network fault, when the panel is armed, or during a call alarm.

Automatic calls on alarm

When an alarm goes off, the panel calls the emergency number you set. The call switch for that number must be on. When you answer, you first hear which alarm it is. If you have recorded a message, it is played. Then you hear these voice prompts:

press 1 to arm
press 2 to disarm
press 3 to monitor
press 4 to talk

If it is a false alarm, press 2: the system disarms and the alarm stops. Press 3 to cancel the alarm on site and listen in to what is happening. If you do not need to listen in, simply hang up. If you do not answer or the call fails, the panel keeps calling the number according to the set number of attempts, until you answer.

Calling the panel remotely

If you call the panel from one of the emergency numbers you set, the panel answers automatically. You can then listen in or operate the panel with the voice commands.

Troubleshooting

An alarm number is not called or gets no SMS

Try adding the area code before the phone number, for example 00XX or 0XX.

You cannot make a call yourself

You cannot make calls from the panel when there is a GSM network fault, when the panel is armed, or during a call alarm.

Checking the GSM signal

Request the signal strength with *6666*62*. If "GSM CSQ:" shows 0 or 99, the GSM signal is abnormal.

Forgotten password or the panel is not working properly

Use System settings → Initialisation to reset the panel to factory settings. This is meant for when you have forgotten the operating password, when the panel is not working normally, when the settings have become mixed up, or when you want to add an unknown sensor, remote control or RFID card. Initialisation does not work when the screen is locked.

The panel does not connect to the app

The panel only works with 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. Check that your router is set up correctly and connected to the internet, that your phone has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth turned on, and that your phone is connected to the 2.4 GHz network.

Good to know

You link one alarm panel to one app account. You add other family members by sharing the device.
You can only rename an accessory in the app.
In Disarm mode, only the SOS button and accessories set to "24h Active" trigger the alarm.
The default admin password is 6666 and the default user password is 1234.
The panel pairs up to 200 remote controls or sensors and 10 RFID cards, with 1527 or 2262 encoding.
