The Alarm Memory; The Automatic Switching Device - Stecom TOPLINE Mode D'emploi

8. THE ALARM MEMORY

The control unit of the STECOM-Alarm-System is equipped with an alarm memory. If an alarm
has been triggered and the system has automatically re-armed in your absence, this alarm is
stored in the alarm memory. If this is the case, the red "active" LED signals a triggered alarm
by flashing very slowly.
The pre-condition of an alarm being stored, is that the alarm has not been switched off manu-
ally. Therefore, any alarm which you may accidentally have triggered yourself upon returning
home, and then disarmed by pressing the blue button within the time lapse, will not be stored.
A glance at the alarm memory, informs you of any earlier alarm having been triggered.
Keep the blue button pressed to enter the alarm memory (when the system is disarmed). If the
system is armed, you must first disarm the system by briefly pressing the blue button.
After a few seconds, the normal display disappears i.e. the red "active" LED switches off after
flashing briefly, and only the LED's of components involved in the triggering of the alarm
remain lit.
If no LED illuminates, then no stored triggering of an alarm took place in your absence.
If the LED's are constantly lit, the alarm was triggered via the tamper alarm, i.e. communication
with the components was at some point in time not possible.
If the LED's are flashing, then the system was triggered due to an alarm, e.g. a movement was
registered by one of the motion detectors.
To exit the alarm memory, release the blue button and the control unit returns to the normal
display. The alarm memory is automatically cleared when the control unit returns to the normal
display i.e. only when an alarm is triggered according to the margin conditions (see above), will
events be stored in the memory.
Once the blue button is released, the red "active" LED on the control unit flashes, and the
system is re-armed - briefly press the blue button to disarm the alarm.
If the system is re-armed, the delay time in which you must leave the monitored zone starts
with the release of the blue button.

THE AUTOMATIC SWITCHING DEVICE

In your absence, the STECOM-Alarm-System automatically switches on light sources
when it starts getting dark, or switches the stereo or the television on and off. This
occurs at irregular times and enhances the delusion that you are at home.
9.1 Press the corresponding button on the control unit to switch on the automatic switching
device.
The green LED next to the button illuminates.
Once it starts to get dark, the control unit switches the light sources connected
to the switching sockets 1 and 2 on and off at various intervals and independent
of one another. The switching operation intervals are between 20 and 60 minutes.
After 5 hours the switching devices switch off automatically and start again the
next evening.
To ensure trouble-free operation you should mount the control unit
in such a position, that the light sensor can register the incoming daylight.
The control unit briefly switches off both switching sockets to check
the natural light in the room. If there is enough natural daylight, the automatic
switching device
switches off, even if 5 hours have not yet passed. The process starts renewed when it
starts to get dark (e.g. in a storm).
