Dexaplan TM 605 - Manual (Page 2)

Detecting pets (dog or cat)
 Choose the area in which you wish the pressure mat to detect the pres-
ence of your cat or dog, e.g. a patio door.
 Cover the full surface of the pressure mat with a cloth or a doormat.
Positioning the alarm unit
Tip ! make sure that the acoustic signals cannot frighten pets. Position the
alarm unit so that your pet cannot hear the acoustic signals. You can install the
alarm unit close to the pressure mat or further away from it.
 Position the alarm unit so that you can operate it and change the battery
with ease. Make sure that any unwanted visitors (e.g. intruders) cannot
see or operate the alarm unit.
 Position the alarm unit in its chosen location either free-standing or lying
down.
Installing the alarm unit on the wall
 Danger ! Do not damage any gas, electricity, water or telecommunication
lines when installing the device! This poses a danger to life and a risk of injury
and damage.
 Mark two drill holes in a line one above the other 44 mm apart in the chosen
installation position.
 Drill the holes and push the two wall plugs supplied with the device com-
pletely into the holes.
 Screw the two fastening screws so far into the wall plugs that the two
screw heads protrude by approx. 6 mm from the surface of the wall.
 Mount the alarm unit with its two fixing
Cable installation
 Caution ! Do not pass the cable over sharp edges and make sure that it
does not get trapped! If necessary protect the cable with insulating tape. Make
sure that the cable is not visible to unwanted visitors (e.g. intruders).
 Install the cable so that it does not create a stumbling hazard. Guide and
fit the cable close in the joint between the wall and floor.
You wish to lay the cable through a doorway:
 Lay the cable inside the inner edges of the door frame so that it does not
hinder closing or use of the door. Make sure that the cable is not damaged
when the door is closed or used.
or :
 If necessary drill a suitably sized hole (outer measurement of the cable
socket W, approx. 10 mm) into the door frame and pass the cable through it.
Cable connection
 Plug the cable plug I (cable end at the alarm unit) completely into the
cable socket W (cable end at the pressure mat).
Operation
Selecting the alarm unit function
 Danger! Do not use the device in the presence of sick or disabled people or
animals. Shock resulting from the siren poses a danger to life and a risk of injury.
Make sure that your hearing is not exposed to the loud alarm signal for any
length of time. This can cause serious damage to the hearing.
Make sure that the loud siren is not triggered close to the ears. This can cause
serious damage to the hearing.
The alarm unit only generates acoustic signals if one of the three functions
, or
has been activated. An active loading of the pressure mat causes
the chosen signal to be generated. For example, if a cat walks onto the pres-
sure mat, the alarm unit will generate the signal for the activated function. As
long as the cat remains on the pressure mat, there is no active pressure load
and therefore no signal is generated.
The sensor film inside the pressure mat is highly sensitive. It is possible that it
could be triggered by other animals or even by strong wind. Choose the function “
0“
and switch the alarm unit off when you do not need it, particularly at night, to
avoid disturbances.
If you change from “
0” to or function, the gong tone of the relevant function
rings once.
 Switch the function switch P to the position of the required function.
Siren
Select this function to indicate the presence of unwanted visitors (e.g. in-
truders). Every active pressure load on the pressure mat triggers a very
loud siren for approx. 30 seconds.
Switching off
0 Select this function if you wish to switch the alarm unit off.
Quiet gong
Select this function to indicate the presence of visitors (e.g. family) or pets.
Every active pressure load on the pressure mat triggers a quiet gong tone,
which rings twice.
Loud gong
Choose this function to indicate the presence of visitors (e.g. family) or
pets. Every active pressure load on the pressure mat triggers a loud gong
tone, which rings twice.
Troubleshooting
