magnetic door/window contacts, flood and temper-
ature detectors, etc.

SELECTING A SUITABLE LOCATION
The base station has a so-called passive infrared ele-
ment that detects any change in temperature with-
in its range. A certain amount of heat related to
human beings is detected for an alarm. However to
achieve the best performance of your HomeGuard,
note following installation recommendations before
installing:
a. It should be located at approx. 170-180cm
height on a fixed vertical surface e.g.
wall or cupboard
b. Choose a location where an intruder may pass
the monitored area at all time in an early stage
of intrusion.
c. Choose a location near to a wall outlet and tele-
phone socket.
