Operating Instructions
Arming and Disarming
The system offers multiple arming modes:
- Arm: Activates all sensors for full protection when you leave the property.
- Disarm: Deactivates the alarm system, allowing free movement within the property.
- Stay Arm: Activates perimeter sensors (e.g., door/window sensors) while allowing movement within the interior, ideal for when you are home.
You can arm/disarm the system using the main control panel, remote controls, or through the Smart Life/Tuya APP. Scheduled arming and disarming can also be configured via the app.

Maintenance
Battery Replacement for Wireless Sensors
The wireless sensors (door magnets, PIR detectors) are battery-powered. The system will send low voltage signals to the host, and the host will push information to your APP when batteries need replacement. Refer to the individual sensor manuals for specific battery types and replacement procedures.
