3.6 Plan for sensor placement
Before starting to install the alarm system it is important to make a plan. Determine the
locations you want to secure and what type of sensor is needed. Also, you need to
determine what group type or configuration the sensor needs to be installed in. Every
type of sensor needs to be placed in a group; in-Home-group, normal group, single
group or 24-hours group (more information about the groups will be explained in the
chapter “Explanation of the groups”).
Illustration below is an example of a plan that determines what sensor should be
placed for the preferred security.
A. Alarm system
B. Remote control
1. Front door: Window/door contact (security type 3)
2. Living room: Motion detector PIR (security type 0)
3. Window - Living room: Window/door contact (security type 1)
4. Window - Living room: Window/door contact (security type 1)
5. Door-terrace: Window/door contact (security type 1)
6. Window – Bedroom: window/door contact (security type 1)
7. Bedroom: Motion detector PIR (security type 0)
8. Hallway: Motion detector PIR (security type 2)

The motion detector and window/door sensor included with the alarm system are
already paired to the system. The motion detector is set by default as in-Home group
and the window/door contact is configured as Fully arm group.
