(or carbon monoxide alarms, or any other home alarms which make a loud siren or beeping). With an Alarm Detector installed next to each alarm in your home, your alarms become part of and you will be alerted the AlertMe system, if any of them go off. The Intruder Alarm The Intruder alarm monitors the Motion Sensors and Door/Window Sensors when you are away from home and alerts you if anything happens. Door/Window Sensors (x3) inform your AlertMe system whether doors or windows are open or closed. Each sensor has two parts, and you stick one on the door or window and one on the frame, so that they are close together when the door or window is shut. These are useful for checking that doors and windows are closed when you leave home. Motion Sensors (x2) watch for people moving around in a room or area of your home. They are best positioned towards the top of a wall, pointing out into the room. They are the best way of detecting any intruder in your home.

You need to allow about an hour and a half; it's best to do the whole install at once, rather than stopping part way through. It may tak e a while, but it's very easy!
Until towar ds the end of the install you won't be able to use your system ; the Buttons, Keyfobs etc won't wor k . This is because we focus on getting the install r ight, and m ak ing sur e ever ything is r eliable. Please be patient - you'll be able to test out your system at the end - and we'll help you do it!
If you just have some Alertme devices to add to your existing system, you can add them in just a few minutes. You don't need any tools. Because AlertMe uses a wireless network (ZigBee) in your home there are no wires to fit to connect up the sensors. Also, we pr ovide special stick y pads to fix AlertMe accessories in your home, and so you do not need to drill holes or fiddle with screws. Our stick y pads are carefully chosen for you, and even if you leave them stuck to your wall for years, they can be removed without damaging your decor!

During the installation you will need a web browser running on a PC or laptop in your home, so that you can follow our web-based walk through. Once the system is set up, you do not need a computer to be turned on and running all the time; Aler tMe is a standalone appliance. It's well worth doing a little planning in advance about how you will use AlertMe to protect your home, too. Read our guide here.

It's in the box mark ed "1". You'll find the hub power supply underneath the Hub itself in that box, along with an Ethernet cable. Positioning the Hub Your hub is the heart of the AlertMe system in your home. As well as communicating with the internet and your mobile phone via your broadband gateway, it manages the AlertMe radio network in your home, and k eeps you informed of events and status by playing audio messages. It also lights up white to tell you that all is well (if you want it to!). You should bear these various functions in mind when choosing a location for your hub. As well as being placed so that your AlertMe hub can connect to your broadband gateway and a mains power sock et, your hub should ideally be placed somewhere central in your home, such as a hallway or living room. This will give you the best radio coverage in your home, and also means you will be able to hear any important audio messages played by the hub. At the same time, it is a good idea not to put your hub and broadband gateway right 1 of 4 10/10/08 11:34 Installing the Hub - Alertme http://wiki.alertme.com/wiki/index.php/Installing_t... Personalisation Phone calls Purchasing Security Subscription Text messages Users Website Wireless network next to each other - try to position them somewhat apart if possible. Your hub should be placed the right way up, with the AlertMe logo on top, and shouldn't have other items placed on top of it. (The top of your hub may get warm during operation.) Also, avoid putting your hub anywhere which will get very warm, such as an airing cupboard. To maximise the performance of your hub, try not to put it in the middle of a tangle of wires or in a cupboard. Also, avoid placing it near any large metal objects, such as radiators, boilers, fridges and so on. Connecting the Hub If you are unsure about the connections on the Hub, click here for a labelled picture. You should connect the Ether net cable between the sock et on the back of the Hub, and a spar e Ether net sock et on your br oadband r outer . For more information about where this might be, or about connecting your Hub to your broadband router or to Ethernet sock ets, click here. You can position the Hub on any flat surface, such as a shelf, desk , or the floor. Don't put anything on top of it!
Next, connect the hub power supply to the back of the Hub, and plug the other end into a m ains power sock et. Your hub should light up; now sign in to the Alertme secure website, if you haven't already. Note that your Hub power supply and Ethernet cable are in the Hub 2 of 4 10/10/08 11:34 Installing the Hub - Alertme http://wiki.alertme.com/wiki/index.php/Installing_t... packaging box, underneath the Hub!
Linking the Hub to your AlertMe website account If you have not already logged into the AlertMe secure website, now would be a good time to do so! If you have not registered on the site, you will need to do this now (it is lik ely that you will have registered when you ordered your Kit, though). There is more information about registration here. If you are having problems with the secure website, click here. Once you are logged in, it's tim e to connect your Hub with your secur e website account. On the website, you should automatically be tak en to the right place in the install process, but if not, go to the MySettings section (by click ing on the icon at the top right). You should now be in the online install walk through. There will be a few screens of information, which you should read, before you need to do anything. You will, then, see a box where you should type in your Hub ID Number. This number is printed at the back of the Hub, just above where the cables plug in. The Hub ID consists of 3 letters and 3 numbers. Once your Hub is flashing red, on and off and on again, it is ready to connect. Type the Hub ID into the box on the website, and click OK. If your Hub is flashing oddly and only on one side, click her e for advice. If all has gone smoothly, the website should now tell you that it is communicating with your hub. If not, click here for help. 3 of 4 10/10/08 11:34 Installing the Hub - Alertme http://wiki.alertme.com/wiki/index.php/Installing_t... Excellent! Your hub is now in constant contact with AlertMe.

The Button is quite simply a button!
You can use it to provide an input to your AlertMe system for many different reasons. Most lik ely, your Button will become your AlertMe Doorbell; we will offer more Button functions soon. It is battery powered and look s lik e this:

If your Button is to be an AlertMe Doorbell, then you should place it where you would put a doorbell! If you are going to use your Button for something else, then it should be clear where you would want it for that reason. You should also try to follow our general Accessory positioning guidelines. If you are having problems positioning it, try reading our help on positioning. 2 of 5 10/10/08 11:59 Getting started with the Button - Alertme http://wiki.alertme.com/wiki/index.php/Getting_star... I can't see a flashing light on it When the Button flashes its light, the whole of the orange ring on the front will light up!
When you first put the battery in, you should expect to see the Button light blink twice every few seconds; the light will go out once the Button is communicating with the Hub. The light will come on again when this Button is selected for placement on the website;
then, it will flash regularly once a second (if it is in a good position for the Accessory to be installed), or it will blink twice every few seconds (if it is not in a good position). If you aren't placing this Button, it most lik ely will not be flashing its light. How do I stick it up?

Then, peel off the printed part of the cover sheet off the pad you just stuck down, and press the Button against the surface you want to stick it to firmly for a few seconds. Done!
With the Button, you have the alternative of using screws to fix the Button to a wall. There are special guide circles on the back part of the Button where you could punch through in order to use screws; these should be obvious if you lift off the front of the 3 of 5 10/10/08 11:59 Getting started with the Button - Alertme http://wiki.alertme.com/wiki/index.php/Getting_star...

The Keyfob is used to control the AlertMe Intruder Alarm system, by blipping your home whenever you go in, or out. The big button is used when you return Home, and the small button when you go Away. This affects how the Intruder Alarm and Emergency Alarms work - when you are At Home, the 1 of 5 10/10/08 11:59 Getting started with the Keyfob - Alertme http://wiki.alertme.com/wiki/index.php/Getting_star...

You can also set different doorbell sounds for whether you are at home or not, and get notifications when other family members go out, or come back home - even if you are not at home yourself! The Keyfob is battery powered and look s lik e this:

To put in a battery, insert a small flat-bladed screwdriver into the slot at the k eyring end, and lever up the top of the case, then slide it back away from the k eyring end (see here for pictures or here for a movie). The battery is supplied by AlertMe in the Keyfob box. Clip the Keyfob together again when you have put the battery in. The light should then blink twice every few seconds for a while; this will stop once the Keyfob is communicating with the Hub. If the light does not turn on at all, then click here for help. If it stops flashing, but does not appear on the website as an icon, wait a few minutes. If that doesn't work , try tak ing the battery out for 10 seconds, replacing it, and waiting another few minutes. If it still doesn't appear, click here. If your AlertMe Keyfob came with a special tool in the Keyfob box, you can use that to open it - click here. 2 of 5 10/10/08 11:59 Getting started with the Keyfob - Alertme http://wiki.alertme.com/wiki/index.php/Getting_star... What should I call it?
You should give each Keyfob the name of the person who will k eep it. So, if one Keyfob will belong to Billy, call the Keyfob "Billy" here on the website. Then, AlertMe can show you who is at home at any given time, and can tell you who set the alarm when they left the house, and so on. I can't see a flashing light on it The light, when flashing, is in the position of the green dot here:
When you first put the battery in, you should expect to see the Keyfob light blink twice every few seconds; the light will go out once the Keyfob is communicating with the Hub. The light will come on again when this Keyfob is selected for naming on the website. If you aren't naming this Keyfob, it most lik ely will not be flashing its light.

When you reach the testing stage, the light will come on whenever either Keyfob button is pressed. For more information about testing, click here. What is the little thingy in the box with my Keyfob?
In some cases you may find a small plastic bag inside the Keyfob box, which contains a little metal tag. This tag can be used to open the Keyfob (just insert the small end into the slot in the Keyfob, and twist the tag). If the tag is big enough, you may wish to use it on the Keyfob k eyring, writing on it to label which Keyfob this is. (There are two versions of the tag - tiny, and bigger!)

Where to put the Lamp As well as providing light, the Lamp acts as a wireless signal booster to ensure that your AlertMe system work s reliably throughout your home. For more information about the Lamp, click here. You should position your lam p som ewher e you will enjoy it, but also som ewher e not too close to your Hub. Putting the Lam p in another r oom , or on another floor , of your hom e, is ideal. The Lam p needs to be plugged into a m ains power sock et. There are general guidelines about positioning AlertMe Accessories here. If you are having problems positioning your Lamp, or any other Accessory, click here. If you have multiple Lamps to install, simply follow these instructions for each Lamp in turn. 1 of 4 10/10/08 11:32 Installing the Lamp - Alertme http://wiki.alertme.com/wiki/index.php/Installing_th... Personalisation Phone calls Purchasing Security Subscription Text messages Users Website Wireless network Positioning the Lamp in your home The Lamp you are about to install should currently be near to your Hub. On the walk through page on AlertMe's secure website you should now be able to see all of the Lamps you have, including the one you are about to install. If you dr ag a Lam p icon on the website to the box on the r ight hand side, you should see the Lam p in your hom e near your Hub star t to flash on and off r egular ly. This is the Lam p to install now, if you have m or e than one. If your Lam p does not flash at all, please r ead our help page her e. Bear in mind that although your Lamp has a battery in to keep it running when the mains power goes out, it may not yet be fully charged if you only recently plugged in the Lamp for the first time. If the light goes out it may be lack of power, not that you are out of range. Try plugging in the mains and waiting 5-10 seconds rather than watching the light as you walk around your home, to position the Lamp. You can unplug your Lam p now and car r y it, with its power supply, to wher e ever you wish to put it. As you m ove ar ound your hom e, your lam p m ay continue to flash, or the light m ay go out. When the light is blink ing twice every few seconds, that means that you are not in a good location to install your Lamp, as the radio signal is not good enough. Don't panic! There are two reasons the lamp might do this. One is that you are in a slightly bad spot for the wireless network ; you may find that moving the sensor just a few inches one way or another is all it 2 of 4 10/10/08 11:32 Installing the Lamp - Alertme http://wiki.alertme.com/wiki/index.php/Installing_th... tak es to get to a better place. If moving it around does not work , try another location. If you cannot find a good spot anywhere near there, it might be that you are out of range of the Hub. If you cannot find a good spot for your lamp, read more about how to fix any issues with the wireless network . As you position your Lamp, you should mak e sure you select a location where the Lamp is flashing regularly all the time. You m ay wish to place the Lam p, connect it to m ains power , and then watch it for 5 to 10 seconds to ensure that it continues to flash, confirming that this is a good position for the Lamp where it can be in constant contact with your Hub. If you have any problems with finding a position for your Lamp where the light stays flashing, click here for help. Naming the Lamp Now you should have successfully positioned the Lamp in your home. On the website, click OK to say you have positioned your Lamp; you can now name your Lamp in the box. You can give the Lamp a name, such as First Floor Night Light, or AlertMe Status Lamp. The name is entirely up to you, and may reflect the use of your lamp, or the location of the lamp, or anything else! (Feel free to call your Lamp Bob, if you lik e.) By default your Lamp is called Lamp 1, if you just have the one Lamp.
(Later on, you will have the opportunity to assign the Lamp to a room in your home, if you opt to set up Rooms on the AlertMe secure website. For now, you just need to give it a name.) Great!

The Door /Window Sensor detects whether a door , window, or other thing is Open or Closed. The sensor has two parts - a larger part, into which the battery is placed, and a smaller part (which is actually a magnet). The Door/Window Sensor is designed for use indoors but it can be used on external windows or doors, providing that the larger part is normally indoors. You can use the Door/Window Sensor to check whether ground floor exterior doors and large windows are open or closed (especially helpful when combined with AlertMe's warning if you leave your home set to
"Away" without closing everything!). The lar ger par t of the sensor is usually placed on the door or window fr am e, and the sm aller m agnet placed on the door or window itself; the two par ts m ust be par allel to each other , and as close to touching as you can place them , without stopping the m oving par t fr om opening sm oothly.
