TechPro Standard Installation Guide: Intruder Alarm System

1. Site Survey and Risk Analysis

• Walk through the premises to identify entry points and high-risk areas.
• Choose appropriate sensors: motion detectors (PIR), magnetic contacts, glass break sensors, etc.
• Design the layout based on zones (perimeter, interior, vaults, etc.).

2. Equipment Selection

• Use dual-technology sensors in areas with temperature fluctuations.
• Choose loud sirens and flashing strobes for immediate alerts.
• Ensure the control panel supports sufficient zones and wireless extensions if needed.

3. Installation Procedure

a. Sensor Placement

• Mount PIR sensors 6-8 feet high in corners for maximum coverage.
• Install magnetic contacts on all doors and accessible windows.
• Avoid installing near HVAC vents or windows with direct sunlight.

b. Control Panel and Keypad

• Place control panel in a secure area with central access to all zones.
• Install keypads at main entry/exit points, easily accessible but not visible from outside.
• Wire sensors through tamper-proof conduits.

4. Power and Communication

• Use dedicated fused power supplies with surge protection.
• Install battery backup to power the system for at least 12 hours.
• Ensure GSM or internet modules are configured for remote alerts.

5. Programming and Testing

• Program each zone with appropriate delay and sensitivity.
• Set up arming modes: away, stay, night.
• Test all zones and simulate intrusion attempts.
• Set notification alerts to client's phone/email.

6. Client Handover

• Provide user manual, passwords, and maintenance schedule.
• Demonstrate arming/disarming and panic function.
