FAQs

A: Depends on the responding police department. Many cities, municipalities and counties require alarm permits in order for the alarm system to be installed. Some cities will not dispatch police to the scene unless there is an alarm permit for that address as well. Please check with your local authorities to find out if an alarm permit is required for your location. Some information may be found at www.titanalarm.net/customer-service/alarm-permits

A: There are a couple of things you should know about the wireless motion detectors. First, to preserve battery life the light on the motion detector will not turn on. Second, to preserve battery life, the motion is programmed to go into sleep mode if it senses motion 2 times in a 60 second interval. This will cause the motion to sleep for 5 minutes and then it will automatically wake itself up. This will keep the battery from running out too quickly because the motion is not sending signals to the control every time someone walks by during the sleep mode. This can also make testing a little tricky. TO TEST TO MOTION – 1.Arm your system to AWAY 2.Open and close the front door, as if you are leaving the house. You need to do this, otherwise the alarm system will think that you armed the motions by mistake and will turn them off. 3.Once arming is complete, stay out of the view of the motion detector for 5 minutes 4.Then walk in front of the motion detector like normal 5.The Alarm should sound about 3 seconds after the motion has seen you 6.Then quickly disarm your alarm system so our central station isn’t notified

A: Sometimes this is a quick fix, and the connection between the thermostat and the panel just needs to be re-set by doing the following:

1) Go over to the thermostat
2) Reaching up with both hands, place your pointer fingers on the top left and top right corner of the thermostat and gently pull towards you. The top faceplate will slide off the thermostat opening up some small buttons that you can press
3) Press the "Reset" button, and you will see the screen react to the press of the button.
4) Communication should be re-established within 60 seconds
5) If this did not work, or if your thermostat repeatedly loses it's connection with the panel, please contact Titan Alarm so we can troubleshoot over the phone or schedule a technician to repair your thermostat.

A: THE ISSUE: There are a few different reasons for this error to show up on your panel. 1) You may be in an area where the celluar coverage fluctuates from time to time from 0 bars to 3 bars, and if your panel senses any break in communication with the cellular netowork, it is quick to notify you that there is an error or commuication loss. 2) There are other times that the cellular network may be a little slow, or maintenance is being performed on the cell tower near your house, and there may be a short delay (0-30 seconds) in communication that is called latency. In this case, your panel never lost communication, it is just notifying you that the communication is not happening as it normally should. 3) The equipment itself could be failing for one reason or another. THE FIX: The first thing you want to do is press the Yellow Security button and then press on the Yellow Caution symbol and acknowledge that there is an error, or that there was an error. This will stop the beeping for a short time (24 hours) allowing your panel time to correct itself. In case 1 and 2, the first thing you should do is run a communication test on your alarm panel to correct the issue or verify that there is no issue. If you do not know how to do this, please call us and we will help you do this over the phone. If you have run this test a couple of times and the panel still says there is an error, then we will need to send a technician out to your home.

A: The first thing you want to do is walk over to the alarm panel and check the system status. If the alarm panel doesn't show any errors such as "Smoke Low Battery" or "Smoke Sensor Error", then the problem is not with any smoke detectors that are connected to the alarm system. The issue will be with the smoke detectors that are in your home that are not part of the smoke detector.

A: The CT-30 Touchscreen thermostat you have will automatically remind you how often to change the filter, and it should be set to notify you every 90 days by default.

The display will show the usage to date. Touch FILTER for over 3 seconds and the display will change to LIMIT. Touch arrows to set desired usage limit before filter alert comes on home screen. When this limit is reached, FILTER will be on home screen and the CHECK FILTER indicator lights. Limit may be set from 0 to 999 days/99 weeks - default is 90 days/12 weeks. Touch to reset. To reset the usage back to 0, touch usage number - touching it again restores the displayed usage. Touch to return to the MENU screen.
