Notes:
READ THIS BEFORE
INSTALLATION
• In addition to the parts provided,
you need one 9V alkaline battery
(such as Radio Shack Cat. No.
23-553) to operate the console;
six AAA alkaline batteries (such
as Cat. No. 23-558)—two to oper-
ate the keychain remote control
and four to operate the handheld
remote control; and eight AA alka-
line batteries (such as Cat. No.
23-552)—two in each door/win-
dow sensor transmitter and four to
operate the motion detector.
Your console’s telephone dialer is de-
signed to conform to federal regula-
tions, and you can connect it to most
telephone lines. However, each tele-
phone or telephone device that you
connect to the telephone line draws
power from the telephone line. We re-
fer to this power draw as the device's
ringer equivalence number, or REN.
The REN is shown on the bottom of the
console.
• The suitability of this system to
perform as a burglar alarm or
emergency service device has not
been evaluated by Underwriters’
Laboratories, Inc.
If you use more than one telephone or
other device on the line, add up all the
RENs. If the total is more than five,
your telephones might not ring. In rural
areas, a total REN of three might im-
pair ringer operation. If ringer opera-
tion is impaired, remove a device from
the line.
Warning: To prevent fire or shock haz-
ard, do not expose this product to rain
or moisture.
Note: You must not connect your con-
sole to:
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
!
• Coin-operated systems
• Party-line systems
DO NOT OPEN.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE
COVER OR BACK. NO USER-SERVICE-
ABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVIC-
ING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
• Most electronic key telephone
systems
Your console’s telephone dialer com-
plies with Part 68 of FCC Rules. You
must, upon request, provide the FCC
registration number and the REN to
your telephone company. Both num-
bers are shown on the bottom of the
console.
This symbol is intended to alert you to
the presence of uninsulated dangerous
voltage within the product’s enclosure
that might be of sufficient magnitude to
constitute a risk of electric shock. Do
not open the product’s case.
This symbol is intended to inform you
that important operating and mainte-
nance instructions are included in the
!
literature accompanying this product.

HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS
After you set up your account with
ORCA Monitoring Services, your sys-
tem calls and reports alarms to ORCA
Monitoring Services’ trained staff of se-
curity professionals. See “During an
Alarm” on Page 26.
• Call ORCA Monitoring Services
by lifting your phone’s handset
and pressing MONITOR on the
console or by dialing 1-800-FOR-
ORCA (1-800-367-6722) from a
telephone on the same line as
your system.
The system also automatically calls
ORCA Monitoring Services about once
per month to perform a routine check-
in. This call is made between Midnight
and 6 AM to avoid possible interfer-
ence with other phone calls. If you lift
the handset and hear strange tones,
hang up and wait a few minutes for the
call to end. If ORCA Monitoring Servic-
es does not receive a check-in within
this time, they call you to let you know
of a possible problem with the system.
During the call, ORCA Monitoring
Services instructs you to press
MONITOR on the system and then
hang up the phone. They then
program option settings (listed on
Pages 8–9) into the system. The
preferred settings work best for
most situations. However, you can
ask ORCA Monitoring Services to
change these settings to make the
system work best for you. (If you
do not ask for changes, the pre-
ferred settings are used.)
ORCA Monitoring Services can also
have the system blink the MONITOR
indicator and sound a chirp. If you see
this, call 1-800-FOR-ORCA to deter-
mine the problem.
Note: The system beeps when
programming is complete. To
avoid interrupting system pro-
gramming, do not lift your tele-
phone’s handset until you hear the
beep.
SETTING UP
MONITORED SERVICE
After ORCA Monitoring Services pro-
grams your system, you can begin us-
ing it. However, they do not notify
emergency services of an alert until
they have received and responded to
your monitoring agreement. Allow 24
hours for faxed requests and 5 days for
mailed requests.
Important: Your system is not fully op-
erational until ORCA Monitoring Ser-
vices programs the system.
To set up service, you need to:
• Fill out the enclosed monitoring
agreement and mail or fax it to
ORCA Monitoring Services.
Note: Call 1-800-FOR-ORCA at least
5 days before you move to another ad-
dress.
• Install the system.

PLANNING YOUR SECURITY SYSTEM
Before you set up your system, draw a
security plan of your home. This is es-
pecially important if you install sensor
transmitters to protect several different
zones.
To help accomplish these goals, you
should:
• Post decals on doors and win-
dows stating that your home is
protected by a security system.
Monitored Alarm decals are
included with your system. Addi-
tional decals (Cat. No. 49-507) are
available at your local Radio
Shack store.
If you live in an upstairs apartment, the
front door might be the best place to
mount a door/window sensor transmit-
ter. If you live in a house or downstairs
apartment, you might want to cover a
back door or window.
• Choose a location for the console
where it is not easily accessible or
seen by intruders.
Your security system has three goals:
• To prevent loss by discouraging
potential intruders.
In addition, most police departments
offer information that might be helpful.
After making a preliminary plan, con-
tact your local police department to
see if they offer guidelines or other ser-
vices for planning a home security sys-
tem.
• To scare intruders away before
they can take your property or
break into your home.
• To alert ORCA that someone is
breaking into your home.

ASSIGNING SECURITY
ZONES
REASSIGNING
SECURITY ZONES
A security zone is an area of protection
covered by a single door/window sen-
sor transmitter, motion detector, or oth-
er sensing/transmitting device. Your
security console monitors up to 16
zones and alerts you if there is a viola-
tion (see “Zone Indicators”).
If you want to remove one accessory,
reassign an accessory to a zone cur-
rently in use, or add an accessory
when all zones are assigned, you must
completely reinitialize the system.

When you initialize your security sys-
tem’s sensor transmitters, the console
assigns a zone number to the sensor
transmitter (see “Initializing the Door/
Window Sensor Transmitters”). The kit
includes numbered stickers you attach
to each sensor transmitter to show its
zone number.
,
, and
the console at the same time. Reinitial-
ize all remote controls, door/window
sensor transmitters, and motion detec-
tors, assigning each accessory to the
desired zone.
For your reference, make a record of
which area of your home a zone cov-
ers. For example, using the floorplan
you drew, you could mark the front
door as “Zone 1.”

QUICK INSTALLING/TESTING YOUR SYSTEM
This section describes how to initialize
system accessories so the console
recognizes them and how to test the
system to make sure it works properly.
Perform all the procedures in this sec-
tion, then follow the instructions in “Lo-
cating and Mounting Accessories.”
2. For backup power in case of an
AC power failure, connect and
place a 9-volt alkaline battery
(Cat. No. 23-553) in the battery
compartment.
You can add other separately pur-
chased accessories to the system by
following the appropriate initialization
and testing procedures in this section.
3. Plug the console into any stan-
dard AC outlet that is not con-
trolled by an on/off switch, then
fully extend the antenna.
SETTING UP THE
CONSOLE
1. Choose a location for the console
that is:
• Close to a modular phone jack.
• Central to doors/windows you
want to protect so all sensor
transmitters are within 100 feet.
4. Plug the telephone cord into the
console and plug the other end
into a modular phone jack.
• Positioned where you can eas-
ily check the zone indicators for
problems, but not where an
intruder could easily see it.

MOUNTING THE DOOR/
WINDOW SENSOR
TRANSMITTERS
You can install any combination of
door/window sensor transmitters (Cat.
No. 49-2585) and motion detectors
(Cat. No. 49-2589), in up to 16 zones.
4. Remove the sensor transmitter’s
batteries and attach it to the wall
using the supplied screws or dou-
ble-sided tape (such as Radio
Shack Cat. No. 64-2361). Then
replace the batteries (if you
removed them) and close the bat-
tery compartment door.
Follow these steps to mount each
door/window sensor transmitter.
1. Set the DELAY switch on the door/
window sensor transmitter to MIN
to protect a window or to MAX to
protect a –door.

The console beeps once when you
arm it. When the system is armed, the
RUN 1 and RUN 2 setting have the
same effect: opening a door or window
with a sensor transmitter attached or
tripping a motion detector sets off the
alarm.
If you press ARM HOME, only doors
and windows arm. This lets you arm
the system at night without tripping the
motion detector.
Instant/Delay Mode
The only difference between RUN 1
and RUN 2 is that when the system is
set to RUN 2 and not armed, the con-
sole sounds a pleasant chime when
you open a door or window. When it is
set to RUN 1, there are no chimes.
With ENTRY on the handheld remote
set to INSTANT (and DELAY on the sen-
sor transmitter(s) set to MIN), the sys-
tem instantly arms and the alarm
immediately trips if any sensor trans-
mitter reports an intrusion.
To disarm the system, press DISARM
on any remote control. The console
beeps twice.
With ENTRY on the handheld remote
set to DELAY, you have a 60-second
exit delay and a 30-second entry delay
before the system arms or trips. A
warning chime sounds during the de-
lay period.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your Radio Shack Wireless Home Security System with Emergency Phone Dialer is
an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will
help you care for your system so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep all system components dry. If anything gets wet, wipe it dry im-
mediately. Liquids can contain minerals that corrode the electronic
circuits.
Handle your console and accessories gently and carefully. Dropping
them can damage circuit boards and cases and can cause them to
work improperly.
Use and store the console and accessories only in normal tempera-

Lightning damage is not common.
Nevertheless, if you live in an area that
has severe electrical storms, we sug-
gest that you unplug the system and
rely on its battery power during storms
to reduce the possibility of damage.
FCC CAUTIONS
Your system has been tested and
found to comply with the limits for a re-
mote control security device in accor-

which are designed to provide reason-
able protection against interference in
a residential installation. However,
there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation.

In the unlikely event that your console
causes problems on the telephone
line, the telephone company can dis-
connect your service. The telephone
company attempts to notify you in ad-
vance. If advance notice is not practi-

you as soon as possible and advises
you of your right to file a complaint with
the FCC.
• Reorienting the antenna of the
radio/TV experiencing the interfer-
ence.
• Moving the system away from the
radio/TV.
• Plugging the system into an outlet
on a different circuit from the
radio/TV experiencing the interfer-
ence.
Also, the telephone company can
make changes to its lines, equipment,
operations, or procedures that could
affect the operation of this console.
The telephone company notifies you of
these changes in advance, so you can
take the necessary steps to prevent in-
terruption of your telephone service.
If necessary, contact your local Radio
Shack store for additional suggestions.
LIGHTNING
Your system has built-in protection cir-
cuits to reduce the risk of damage from
surges in telephone and power line
current. These protection circuits meet
or exceed FCC requirements. Howev-
er, lightning striking the telephone or
power lines might damage the system.
