Connecting the USB Antenna Connect the mini-usb connection on the provided USB cable to the mini-usb port on the USB antenna. Connect the other end to a spare USB port at the rear of the NVR. The top and bottom LED will flash blue to indicate the USB antenna is initialising. The LED will stop flashing when the antenna is ready. The bottom LED will flash red when the wireless siren has been triggered. When the USB antenna is connected to the NVR you will see a blue LED at the top and bottom. If the NVR hasn t detected the USB antenna, you will see Motion at the Main Menu instead of Alarm. Make sure the antenna is connected correctly then restart the NVR. 42

The LED will flash green during normal operation. You will momentarily see a solid green LED when the sensor has been activated. 4. The width between the magnet sensor and window/door sensor should be no more than half an inch (1.25 cm) apart. 5. Install the provided 3V battery into the battery compartment. A green LED will start to flash. 6. The pair/tamper button pairs the window/door sensor to your NVR. Follow the pairing instructions on page 7. 7. The wired sensor connects here. Please note, the wired door sensor is an optional installation. Thread the wired sensor cable into the window/door sensor (see below illustration). Use a Phillips head screwdriver to tighten the cable into the terminal. The wired sensor can be used if you have double windows or doors within the house or if you have a sliding door that has a corresponding security door. Put the cover back on after pairing. 24
The Wireless Siren Fig. 1 - Use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the battery cover. Install 3 x AA batteries provided. Put the cover back on when you have finished and fasten the screw. Fig. 3 - The pair button is located on the right and the green and blue LEDs are located at the bottom. Follow the pairing instructions on page 8. Put the cover back on after pairing and fasten all three screws. Fig. 2 - To access the pair button, use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove three screws as illustrated on the left. Carefully remove the cover and try to minimise any contact with the internal components. Bracket Mount Fig. 4 - Use the mounting bracket to install the wireless siren to a wall or ceiling. Please note, there is a tab on the back of the siren which locks in with the groove on the mounting bracket. Slide the siren to the right to lock it in place. 5
Pairing the PIR Movement Sensors 1. To access the Sensor menu, right-click the mouse at the Live View screen, click Menu, click Alarm then click the Sensor tab. 2. Click Begin Pair. 3. Activate the movement sensor by moving in front of it. The LED will flash red and the NVR will detect the sensor and add it to the sensor list. Repeat this step for any other movement sensors. Please note, to conserve battery power, the PIR movement sensor when activated will wait five seconds to activate again. Group - There are three options available to group your sensors. For the PIR movement sensor it is recommended that you set this to General. This means any movement within the vicinity of the sensor will then activate the wireless siren to be activated when you select Arm in the Alarm Control menu. You can change this group when you have finished pairing. 86
Pairing the Window/Door Sensors 1. If the window/door sensor has the cover on, follow the instructions on page 4 to gain access to the pair/tamper button. 2. Press and hold the pair/tamper button. You will momentarily see a flashing red LED then a solid green LED. 3. The NVR will detect the sensor and add it to the sensor list. Repeat this step for any other window/door sensors. Put the cover back on when you have finished. It s a good idea to make sure the window/door sensor and the magnetic sensor are held together to prevent it from triggering. Group - Leave this as Perimeter. The perimeter group allows movement inside the house (when you select Home in the Alarm Control menu) but if a window or door is opened this will activate the siren. 37
Pairing the Wireless Siren/Remote Control 1 3 4 2 1) Transmit LED - If you don t see a red LED when you press a button, this indicates the battery is flat. 2) Panic - Click this to activate the wireless siren instantly. 3) Alarm On - Click this to enable all sensors listed in the sensor list. 5 4) Alarm Off - Click this to disable all sensors listed in the sensor list. 5) Perimeter On - Click this to enable all window/door sensors only. This allows movement inside the house but if a window or door is opened this will activate the wireless siren. 1. Press and hold the pair button on the wireless siren (see page 5 - Fig. 3). After a short moment you will see a solid blue LED. The NVR will detect the siren and add it to the sensor list. Put the cover back on after pairing and fasten all three screws. 2. The battery for the remote control is pre-installed so there is no need to open the battery cover located at the rear. 3. Press one of the buttons on the remote control. The NVR will detect the remote control and add it to the sensor list. Repeat this step if you have more than one remote control. 4. Click End Pair then click Apply.
