system, and become a general inconvenience. As the number of
false alarms increases, authorities have become less apt to respond
to alarm systems due to this problem. Many of these situations can be
avoided by following some very simple practices.
• Ensure all users are properly trained on the operation of the
system.
• Always turn off the system with the Key Chain Remote Control
before entering protected area.
• Lock all protected doors, windows or any other asset attached to
a sensor.
• Check that motion detectors are not obstructed. Do not allow
sources of heat or sound in range of the motion or vibration
sensors.
• Check that premises are cleared and assets secured before setting
the system.
• Turn off all noise sources – radios, compressors, generators,
heavy equipment, etc.
• Know how to cancel an alarm or turn off the system before
activating.
• If a false alarm is tripped notify customer service immediately.
• Test the system on a monthly basis to ensure proper functioning
• Check cellular signal, power supply, and that sensors are secured
on a daily basis.
Recommended Locations
• Secure product off the ground [above 3 feet (.91m)] to ensure
better communication with the Base Unit (DS100).
• Recommended for use on mobile equipment, containers, gates
and remote assets.
• Secure assets by wrapping the cable through equipment, tools,
materials or other assets.
• Replacement lengths of 2' (.61m), 6' (1.83m), 12' (3.66m) and
24' (7.32m) lengths are available at additional cost.
Installing & Changing Battery
This wireless sensor requires a non-rechargeable CR-123 3.0 Volt
Lithium battery.
NOTE: The system must be disarmed prior to any changes.
TO INSTALL A BATTERY
1. Remove five screws (H) from the outer housing (C).
2. Separate housings.

battery and equipment. Do not use excessive force. If the battery
does not fit, ensure that it matches the polarity markings.
4. Press the reset button (E) on the device. After opening the
device, the Base Unit will display a tamper fault. (see Device
Registration)
TO CLEAR A FAULT

Securing Equipment
The DS300 has a cable that is impregnated with a heavy-duty
urethane jacket over stainless steel braiding. As the cable ends are
disconnected, the system will be notified of an unsecured device.
Also, if for any reason the circuit is broken (i.e., cable is cut), the
Cable Lock will be considered unsecured and will send an alarm
notification. The Cable Lock needs to be removed before operating
the attached equipment.
TO SECURE
1. Rotate the cable lock lever (D) counterclockwise 90˚ to open and
wrap cable around equipment.
2. Insert the small cable end (J) as shown in Figure 2.
3. Align the slot (K) on the cable end with the tab (L) on inner
housing (Fig. 3).
4. Rotate the cable lock lever clockwise 90˚ back to its original
position as shown in Figure 1.
NOTE: A padlock (not included) is recommended for additional
security.
TO UNSECURE
1. Rotate the cable lock lever (D) counterclockwise 90˚ to open.
2. Disconnect small cable end (J) and remove cable from equip-
ment.
3. Rotate the cable lock lever clockwise 90˚ back to its original
position.
Replacing/Changing Cable
NOTE: The system must be disarmed prior to any changes.
1. Rotate the cable lock lever (D) counterclockwise 90˚ to open.
2. Remove five screws (H) from the outer housing (C).
3. Separate housings.
4. Push the large end (M) of the cable through the large hole in the
outer housing until all of the cable is through.
5. Insert the small end (J) of the new cable through the large hole in
the case from the inside and feed the cable through until the large
cable end is stopped by the outer housing.
6. Vertically align the rectangular end to fit into the inner case recep-
tacle and pull to tighten.
7. Insert the small cable end into the inner housing, aligning the slot
(K) and tab (L). Rotate the cable lock lever back to its original
position.
8. Rejoin the housings.
9. Reinsert the five screws into the outer housing and tighten.
10. The Cable Lock is ready for use (see Securing Equipment).
