MOUNTING LOCATION

This Passive Infra Red detector, (PIR), is

designed for indoor use only and can be

installed in wall or corner mount locations.

Always ensure the detector has a clear line of

sight of the area to be protected as infra-red

energy does not pass through solid objects,

(including glass).

Mount the detector in a location where an

intruder is most likely to walk across the

coverage pattern. Corner mounting usually gives

the best coverage.

As with all PIR detectors, it is advisable to choose

mounting positions which avoid direct sunlight,

heating or cooling sources and avoid areas of

high humidity which may cause condensation

on the lens.

Always install the detector away from metal

surfaces which may shield radio transmissions.

Before permanently mounting the detector, it is

recommended that you conduct a radio test

with the detector temporarily mounted in the

intended position.

Use the signal strength meter on the alarm

panel as guide to the best mounting position.

Often, a small change in position can have a

dramatic effect on radio performance due to

various environmental effects on radio signals.

INSTALLATION & TESTING

1 Remove the battery compartment lid by

sliding it down.

2 Open the detector’s front housing by

unclipping the bottom of the lid and swing it

open and away from the back housing.

3 Remove the circuit board from the

back-housing.

4 The base can be corner or flat surface

mounted. Drill holes as required for

mounting and mount the base securely filling

any gaps or holes with a flexible sealant such

as silicone.

5 Replace the board.

6 Set the link to the TEST position.

7 Set the RANGE and PULSE links to suit your

application (see Program Links).

8 Replace the cover, (reverse the removal

procedure).

9 Connect the battery.

10 Replace the battery compartment lid.

11 Wait approximately 30 seconds for the

detector to settle.

12 Walk test the coverage by walking slowly

across the protected area. The red alarm

light should indicate detection at a maximum

of 3 to 4 walking steps at a distance of 10m

from the detector.

Stop and wait for the red alarm light to turn

off before continuing walk testing.

13 If necessary, adjust the RANGE and PULSE

links to suit your installation. Always use the

lowest Range and highest Pulse setting for

any given area. Avoid the possibility of false

alarms caused by setting the detector too

sensitive for the environment.

RADIO TESTING

A preliminary radio test should be carried out

before permanently mounting the detector.

1 Set your control panel in signal strength

mode or detector test mode.

2 Test the detector as described in the section

Installation & Testing.

3 Ensure that the control panel has received

the alarm signal and that the signal strength

satisfactory.

MOUNTING HEIGHT

The recommended mounting height is 2.1m.

BATTERY

LOW BATTERY

The red alarm light, (LED), flashes every 2

seconds to indicate a low battery. This continues

for 4 minutes each time the detector is triggered.

The detector also transmits a low battery signal

to the control panel.

Low battery condition is triggered when the

battery voltage sinks to approximately 7 volts

under load.

When replacing the

battery, use only

Ultralife Lithium

U9VL or equivalent.

Alkaline and Carbon

batteries are not

recommended due

to their shorter

service life.

PROGRAM LINKS

TEST:

TEST link, disables the re-transmit timer, allowing

the detector to be walk tested without waiting

for the 4 minute timer to expire.

Note: If the TEST link is left on, the PIR will

automatically revert to normal mode after one

hour. This is a battery conservation feature.

To re-start test mode, remove the link and then

replace it.

PULSE

PULSE COUNT link selects two pulse count

positions.

LINK ON - 1–2 Pulses or walk steps should

cause an alarm.

LINK OFF - 3–4 Pulses or walk steps should

cause an alarm.

RANGE

The Range link selects 12m or 9m coverage

range.

LINK ON - 12m x 12m coverage

LINK OFF - 9m x 9m coverage

The RANGE link should be set to the minimum

setting that will guarantee detection of an

intruder at the extremities of the protected area.

Set the RANGE link to minimum Range (Link

OFF) unless otherwise required.

LED

Remove the link to disable the walk test LED.

RE-TRANSMIT TIME

To conserve battery life and limit unwanted radio

transmissions, the detector waits until all

detectable movement in the area has ceased

for at least 4 minutes before it will trigger and

transmit a new alarm.

This means that normal and constant movement

in the room will not cause the detector to transmit

multiple alarm signals.

There is no re-transmit delay in TEST mode.
