DIY Wireless Hybrid Home Security Systems

Technology has come with many blessings chief among them being the DIY alarm systems that have come up. These wirelessalarm systems are used to warn the inhabitants of a house that a burglar has entered the house. They do this by sounding a siren, flashing lights and some even placing a call to an alarm monitoring company. To have your own hybrid alarm system, you need to do the following.

First, you will have to buy a horn and a wireless alarm system from a trusted security shop. To set it up, you need to open one of the entrances that may be used by a burglar e.g. window. By using the guide that came with the wireless alarm system, screw the alarm sensor plate to the bottom of the window. Repeat the process at the windowsill, this time fixing the sensor receiver underneath the sensor plate. Ensure that the two come in contact when you close the window.

Next, rotate the transmitter so that you look at its back. Open the battery compartment and put some new batteries on it. Make sure that you have closed it properly. Flip it over so that you are looking at its front. Put it on the windowsill together with the sensor and receiver. Tighten it to the wall.

Locate a central place in the house and put the alarm receiver. Plug it into a power source so that it’s on. Sync the transmitter and receiver as indicated on the manual. After this, open the fuse box and unscrew the wall plate from the AC socket. After loosening the wires on the AC module, take the stripped ends and wrap them together. Place these wires on a notch that you have made from a utility knife. Close the AC module.

Finally, cut two pieces of electrical wire, a foot each and strip both ends. Wind them on the siren which is to be fixed on the wall. Wrap the opposite ends of these wires to the alarm receiver and close it. If you have done the above process successfully, you should now be able to enjoy the protection of your hybrid home security system.
