Introduction
About Magellan and this Manual
Magellan is designed for fast and easy installation. Simply
remove it from the box, mount the console and wireless
transmitters, apply power and Magellan is ready to protect your
home. Magellan has already been pre-programmed with the
required settings for a basic security installation.
Some of Magellan’s features can be programmed through a quick
Installer Menu (menu programming) or through section
programming. Use the quick setup chapter (page 4) to install the
Magellan console quickly and with the basic programming
required for a standard security application. All other chapters
(pages 6 to 33) are for advanced section programming. These
other chapters provide more in-depth and precise information if
more advanced programming is required.
We recommend that you read this entire manual before you begin
installation.
