6. Operating Instructions

The Smartwares SC45 is operated using the included remote controls.

6.1 Arming the Alarm

• Press the ON button on the remote control.
• The sensor unit will emit a short beep, and the red indicator light will flash briefly, indicating that the alarm is armed.
• There is an exit delay period (typically 10-15 seconds) during which you can leave the protected area without triggering the alarm.

6.2 Disarming the Alarm

• Upon entering the protected area, the sensor will detect motion and an entry delay period will begin (typically 5-10 seconds).
• During this delay, press the OFF button on the remote control.
• The sensor unit will emit a short beep, and the red indicator light will turn off, indicating that the alarm is disarmed.
• If the alarm is not disarmed within the entry delay period, the siren will sound.

6.3 Alarm Trigger

• If motion is detected while the alarm is armed and the entry delay expires without disarming, the siren will sound at 105 dB.
• The alarm will typically sound for a set duration (e.g., 30-60 seconds) and then reset, re-arming itself.
