This is the X-10 Powerhouse Brand 7 piece Protector Plus Voice Dialer Wireless Security System model DS7000. It's the perfect security system for the person that wants to have three way protection (flashing lights, screaming siren, and monitoring, although the monitoring does not dial a professional monitoring station, like the Monitor Plus). There are no contracts or monthly monitoring fees. When an alarm is triggered, the Protector Plus System will sound a built-in 95dB siren, optional extra-loud sirens inside or outside, flash X10 controlled lights and also call up to four telephone numbers. It then plays a message that you record and allows the person receiving the call to listen in. The system will continue dialing until the person receiving the call enters 0. In the recording you could say something like this is so and so's security system at (123) 456-7890, there has been a security alert, please press 0 to acknowledge and listen in. It can not be fooled by an answering machine.
The security system can be armed in instant/delay and home/away modes. In home mode, motion detectors are disabled while door/window sensors are armed. This allows you to walk around the house yet have your doors and windows protected from entry. The security console monitors up to 16 supervised sensors (supervised means that the console expects the sensor to send a confirmation signal every 90 minutes). If it doesn't get the signal it knows that something is wrong (weak battery or tampering).
Hook-up is easy, you simply plug the console into any AC outlet and a telephone jack. Connection to a phone line is not needed if you just want a stand alone security system. It just won't be able to call out. When the alarm is tripped, a piercing siren built into the console is activated. At the same time, all X10 controlled lights in the home are flashed on and off, alerting neighbors and making it easier for police to identify where the break-in has occurred. This is usually sufficient to scare away all but the most determined intruder.
You can use (in any combination) up to 16 wireless door/window sensors (DW534 or DS10A) or PIR motion detectors (SP554A or MS10A) with this system. You can install up to 8 security remotes using any combination of key chain or handheld remotes (enough for every member of the family). In addition, X10 home automation remotes and modules work with this system. Standard non-security home automation sensors and remotes do not count towards the number of zones or remotes. You can virtually use as many as needed.
The status of each sensor is displayed by the LED's on the console. If the LED is OFF, the sensor is OK. If it is ON the sensor has been tripped. If it is FLASHING, then the sensor battery is low or the sensor has been tampered with. The LED's work even when the system is disarmed so you can see what is going on in the various zones of your house. In Run 2 mode (disarmed) the console will chime each time a zone is tripped and can be used as an automatic annunciator. This doesn't apply to the motion sensor, however the zone indicator will light up.
Every sensor you install is self-checked, and if any fail to report in to the base console at the correct time interval, the sensor's zone indicator on the alarm console flashes an alert. If the owner tries to arm the system, a special warning tone is sounded, and a button must be pressed to acknowledge and bypass the warning before the arming sequence can be completed.
If the power fails or is cut, the console continues to protect for up to 12 hours using an easy to replace 9-volt battery back-up and is ready to respond with all features (except for flashing lights since they are AC powered) including telephone dialing and alarm siren. An indicator on the console warns the owner when the battery needs changing.
Easy installation without any tools or having to run any wiring! Simply plug it in. All the remotes and sensors are completely wireless and security coded by being initialized during set-up so that the console will recognize only them. This way someone can't arm or disarm your system using another remote since it will not be responded to by the console.
The security console also functions as a transceiver in an X10 remote control system. To avoid erratic operation of home automation modules, you should not have one security console and X10 transceiver set to the same housecode. You can have both, but they just can't be set to the same housecode. The security systems console replaces the transceiver in your existing home automation system or can be used to expand it with another housecode. Adding X10 home automation products such as lamp modules, appliance modules, wall switches, etc. is easy with this system, since it is already compatible with all manufacturer's X10 products including those from but not limited to GE, IBM, HomeLink, Leviton, Magnavox, RCA, Radio Shack, Safety First, Smarthome, Stanley, X10, and X-10 PRO.
The lamp module, door/window sensors, and motion sensor are white in color.
