Connecting to a network

Your system has a built-in Ethernet port
for optional connection to your home or
office network, and the internet. Optional
modules also allow connection to a Wi-Fi
network, or to access the internet over a
mobile (4G/3G/2G) network.
Connecting your system to a network
enables:
• You to (for example) set, unset and
monitor your system over the internet
from your phone or tablet.
• Your system to be updated
automatically with the latest software
and new features.
• An installer to configure, monitor and
administer your system remotely (if
permitted).
• You to access a virtual keypad through
a web browser.
• Your system to communicate alarms
to an Alarms Receiving Centre (ARC)
over the internet. (Communication via a
landline is also possible.)

System components

This section outlines typical components
that your alarm system may include. Your
installer may have added other items,
depending on your requirements.
If there are components described here
that you would like to add to your system,
please contact your installer.

Control unit

The control unit is the main processing
unit of the alarm system and is usually
located out of sight. Please ensure that
it is accessible for your installer to carry
out periodic maintenance tasks.
The control unit must be opened only
by an installer. If you attempt to do this
yourself, an alarm will be sounded, and
you may need your installer to reset the
system.

Keypads

There are several different types and styles
of keypad, including radio keypads, which
communicate with the system wirelessly.
You can identify yourself to the system
by entering your unique access code at
the keypad. Alternatively, if the keypad
includes a proximity tag reader, you can
simply present your proximity tag.
The LCD display shows messages, prompts
and options that guide you through the
user interface.

Detectors

Detectors are devices that detect alarm
conditions. Some models connect
wirelessly to the system (via radio), others
use physical wire. The following shows
some popular examples.
Passive Infra-Red (PIR)
movement detector.
Pet-tolerant versions are
available.
Dual-technology (PIR and
microwave) movement
detector. These are suitable
for more demanding
environments such as
garages and conservatories
(please ask your installer
for advice).
Smoke detector.
Slimline door contact and/
or shock sensor – to detect
when doors are opened, or
when a door or window is
forced.
Keypads provide the
main means of
operating the system,
such as to set or unset
the system, access
options and
acknowledge alarms.
