On the back of the alarm, turn the battery switch to ON. The alarm should power up and may make a sound or flash the indicator light.
Step 3: Choose a Working Mode
Use the mode button to cycle through the operating modes. Watch the indicator light and listen for the beep pattern as confirmation.
Step 4: Pair Accessories
If you have wireless sensors, door contacts, PIR detectors, or remotes, pair them before mounting the alarm permanently.
Step 5: Test the Remote
Test Arm, Disarm, and SOS buttons.
Step 6: Mount the Alarm
Install the bracket securely, then slide the alarm onto the bracket. Choose a location with sunlight and good wireless reception.

- Trigger the accessory you want to add.
- If successful, the alarm should beep and the indicator should confirm pairing.
- Repeat for other accessories if required.
Configuration Status
| Status | Indicator Light | Buzzer |
|---|---|---|
| Configuration successful | Long light / confirmation flash | Confirmation beep |
| Configuration failed | Blinks | Failure beep |
| Repeat configuration | Fast flash | Fast beeping |
Deleting Accessories / Resetting
Delete / Reset Method
- Turn the battery switch ON.
- Press and hold the S3 button.
- Wait for multiple buzzer sounds and indicator flashes.
- Release the button when the alarm confirms deletion or reset.
- Pair accessories again if needed.
Remote Controller Operation
The remote normally has buttons for arming, disarming, and SOS/emergency operation.
Arm
Press the arm button when you want the alarm to monitor the protected area.
Disarm
Press the disarm button before entering the protected area or when you do not want the alarm to respond.
SOS
Press SOS to trigger an emergency alarm manually. Test this carefully because it may be loud.
Installation Guide
Correct placement is important for charging, sound, wireless range and reliability.
Choose the Location
- Choose a place with good sunlight for the solar panel.
- Install as centrally as possible for wireless sensor reception.
- Avoid large metal objects, reinforced concrete, thick walls, or strong interference sources.
- Keep the alarm high enough to be heard and seen.
- Face the solar panel toward the best available sun.
Fix the Bracket
- Hold the bracket against the mounting surface.
- Mark the screw holes.
- Drill holes if required.
- Use suitable wall plugs and screws.
- Tighten the bracket firmly.
Fit the Alarm to the Bracket
Slide the alarm onto the bracket clips and pull down to secure it, as shown in the manual diagram.
Charging Guide
Solar Charging
- Place the panel in direct sunlight.
- Charging efficiency depends on weather and season.
- Direct sunlight for at least 5 hours is preferred.
- Cloudy weather may reduce charging.
USB Charging
- Use USB DC 5V / 1A.
- Avoid high-voltage chargers.
- Charge fully before first setup.
- Useful if the alarm has been stored or unused.
Battery Care
- Recharge if the alarm becomes weak or unreliable.
- Do not leave the unit flat for long periods.
- Check charging after long cloudy periods.
Troubleshooting
Use this table if the alarm does not behave as expected.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Try This |
|---|---|---|
| Alarm does not turn on | Battery switch off or battery flat | Turn switch ON and charge using USB 5V / 1A. |
| Alarm sound is weak | Low battery or poor charging | Charge fully and move to better sunlight. |
| Remote does not work | Remote not paired, flat remote battery, or too far away | Move closer, replace/check remote battery, pair again. |
| Sensor does not trigger alarm | Sensor not paired or out of range | Pair the sensor again and test near the alarm first. |
| Pairing fails | Wrong mode, too many accessories, weak battery | Recharge, reset if needed, then pair one accessory at a time. |
| False alarms | Poor sensor location, interference, moving objects | Move sensor, avoid trees/animals/heat sources, test again. |
