Remote Handheld Touchpad
Locate Remote Handheld Touchpads where they will be convenient and offer quick 
access to the user.
QS1500 Keypad
Locate QS1500 Keypads where they will be convenient and offer quick access to the 
user. When mounted, they must be within 600 feet (183 meters) of the control panel.
Keychain Touchpad
Keychain Touchpads attach to the owner’s key ring or can be conveniently carried.
Dialog Telephone Interface Module
Mount the DTIM within 100 feet (30 meters) of the panel, but no closer than 10 feet (3 
meters) to another DTIM or the panel.
X10 Modules
The system can control up to 8 individual unit numbers on Lamp, Wall switch, Appli-
ance, and Universal Modules.
House Code and Unit Numbers
Each device (lamp, appliance, etc.) controlled by the panel must have an identification 
setting. The modules use two dials to set identification codes: one with letters A through 
P and one with numbers 1 through 16.
The lettered dial sets the house code, which enables the system to differentiate this 
home from other homes in the area. Set all modules (except the remote siren) and the 
panel to the same house code.
Note  
All Lamp Modules with the 
same house code will turn 
on or flash as a group during 
an alarm or when operating 
the “Light” button on a Key-
chain Touchpad.
The numbered dial sets the unit number, which identifies and lets you control a specific 
device. Each device must have a unique unit number (1-8) to be individually controlled. 
For example, lights and appliances operated from a Remote Handheld Touchpad or 
operated by a sensor; or lights programmed to go on during the entry/exit delay or at 
scheduled times.
Note  
When unit numbers 9-16 are used for lamp modules, they can only be controlled by an all on 
or all off command. A lamp will flash to the arming level if its unit number is set to 10. A lamp 
set to unit number 10 will flash once if the panel is disarmed, twice if doors & windows are 
armed, etc. The remote siren can be set to any unit number to hear alarm sounds. Set it to 
unit number 9 to also hear arming level beeps, status beeps, and trouble beeps. Do not use a 
lamp module to control appliances. Use an appliance module, since the wattage rating on 
Lamp Modules is less than on Appliance Modules.
Manually Controlling Lights
Lights with even unit numbers (2, 4, 6, 8) can be controlled from either the panel, 
Remote Handheld Touchpad or QS1500 Keypad. Lights with odd unit numbers (1, 3, 5, 
7) can only be controlled from a Remote Handheld Touchpad or QS1500 Keypad.

To Fill Out the Home Control Planning Table:
Note  
The house code instructions 
that come with the Power-
horn Siren won’t work with 
this panel. Follow the house-
code instructions given here.
1. Set the house code on all modules (except the remote siren) to the same letter.
2. Set the Remote Siren house code to the next alphabetical letter. For example, if you 
chose house code B in step 1 above, set the remote siren house code to C.
3. Set the module unit numbers.
Note  
If you are using a Universal 
Module to operate a device, 
make sure to assign a 
unique unit number to this 
module, choosing from 1-8.
4. List the location of the lamp or appliance in the Location column of the Home Con-
trol Planning Table.
5. Write the location of each Lamp Module on an adhesive note and label the module.
6. Decide if the device should be activated by sensors, entry/exit delay, time, or a 
combination. An example of sensor activation is using a motion sensor to turn on a 
light. Record the information in the appropriate columns.
