Your RadioShack Two-Zone Burglar Alarm System provides
the frame for a sophisticated perimeter alarm system. When
properly installed, it warns you of unauthorized entry into
your office or home. Its professional features make it com-
patible with most intrusion sensors and alarms.
You can enhance your system by connecting additional se-
curity devices, such as sirens, lights, and other accessories.
It can even initiate an optional telephone dialer that automat-
ically calls specified phone numbers when the alarm is acti-
vated. Your local RadioShack store carries a full line of UL-
listed security accessories.
Your alarm system’s features include:
Delayed and Instant Alarm Zones
— let you install sen-
sors (not supplied) to create delayed and instant alarm
zones. You can install loops of NO (normally open) and NC
(normally closed) sensors in separate groupings within
these zones.
Panic/Tamper Zones
— lets you install sensors, such as
panic buttons and tamper switches (not supplied), to form a
panic/tamper alarm zone, so you can sound the alarm any
time, even if the alarm system is not armed.
Battery Backup
— lets you connect one rechargeable bat-
tery (not supplied) to provide power if AC power fails, to
maintain all system settings.
Automatic and Manual Battery Test
— automatically
checks the battery every 3 hours 50 minutes. You can also
manually test the battery by pressing a button on the alarm
center.

To help avoid false alarms while you install and test the
alarm system, we recommend you use a lamp to temporarily
connect to the alarm output terminals, so you can see it light
instead of sounding the alarm.
