Adding your Tyco PG4914 DSC PowerG Wireless Pet-Immune PIR Motion Detector to your DSC alarm system involves a straightforward process. Here's a guide to help you enroll it:

1. Consult Your DSC Alarm System's Manual: Start by referring to the installation manual specific to your DSC alarm system. This will provide the precise steps for enrolling new devices and ensure compatibility.
2. Enter Device Enrollment Mode: Access the device enrollment or zone programming section of your DSC alarm system. This is typically done through the system keypad by entering a specific code or navigating through the menu options.
3. Initiate Enrollment: You can generally enroll the PG4914 in one of two ways:
   • Button Method: Locate the enrollment button on the PG4914 detector and press and hold it until the alarm system recognizes the device.
   • Manual Entry: Alternatively, you may need to manually enter the unique Device ID found on the detector itself into the alarm system.
4. Assign a Zone Number: Choose an appropriate zone number for the detector. This assigns the detector to a specific area within your home or business.
5. Configure Device Settings: Configure any necessary parameters for the detector to function correctly. The specific options available will depend on your DSC alarm system.
6. Install and Test: Carefully mount the PG4914 according to the installation instructions. Test the detector's functionality by following the testing procedures outlined in both the detector's and alarm system's manuals. This verifies proper operation.
7. Additional System Tests: Conduct any additional testing procedures suggested by your DSC alarm system's installation manual to ensure everything is working as expected.
8. Fine-Tune Detector Parameters (if needed): If the detector is already enrolled, you can configure its settings by programming the system. Consult your DSC alarm system's manual for detailed instructions on adjusting detector parameters.

By following these steps, you should successfully integrate your Tyco PG4914 detector with your DSC alarm system. If you experience any issues, consult the troubleshooting section of your manuals.
