5. Setup

5.1 Battery Installation

1. Gently slide open the battery compartment cover located on the back of the device.
2. Insert one 9V E-Block battery, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
3. Close the battery compartment cover securely.

5.2 Mounting the Device

The device can be mounted on a wall using the provided bracket and hardware.

1. Choose a suitable location for installation. Consider the desired detection area and ensure the sensor has an unobstructed view.
2. Detach the mounting bracket from the main unit if it is not already separate.
3. Mark the positions for drilling holes on the wall using the bracket as a template.
4. Drill the holes and insert the wall plugs.
5. Secure the mounting bracket to the wall using the provided screws.
6. Attach the motion detector unit to the mounted bracket. The sensor housing can pivot 360 degrees within the bracket to adjust the detection angle.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Mode Selection

The device features a three-position switch for selecting the operating mode:

• CHIME: In this mode, the device emits a short chime sound when motion is detected. This is suitable for use as a passage detector in shops or offices.
• OFF: The device is turned off and will not detect motion or emit any sound.
• ALARM: In this mode, the device emits a loud alarm sound (approximately 70dB) when motion is detected. This is suitable for security purposes.

6.2 Detection Area

The motion detector has a detection range of up to 8 meters and a detection angle of 60 degrees. For optimal performance, position the device to cover the desired area without obstructions.

7. Maintenance

7.1 Battery Replacement

When the sound becomes weak or the device stops responding, it is time to replace the 9V E-Block battery. Follow the battery installation steps in Section 5.1.

7.2 Cleaning

To clean the device, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the surface or internal components. Ensure no moisture enters the device.

8. Troubleshooting

• Device not detecting motion:
  • Check if the battery is correctly installed and has sufficient power. Replace if necessary.
  • Ensure the device is not in the "OFF" position.
  • Verify that the detection area is clear of obstructions.
  • Adjust the angle of the sensor to cover the desired area.
• No sound or weak sound:
  • Replace the 9V battery.
  • Ensure the device is not in the "OFF" position.
• False alarms:
  • Reposition the device to avoid areas with rapid temperature changes (e.g., near heaters, air conditioners) or moving objects (e.g., curtains near a window).
  • Ensure the detection area is free from small animals if not intended to detect them.
