5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Basic Functionality

The CPVAN Motion Detector Alarm operates on the principle of infrared motion detection. When a moving object enters the detection area, the alarm will trigger, emitting a 125 dB siren or a loud chime, depending on the selected mode. This is effective for alerting you to the presence of intruders or visitors.

5.2 Remote Control Usage

The included remote control allows for convenient management of the alarm system:

• Arming: Press the Arm button (lock icon) on the remote to activate the alarm.
• Disarming: Press the Disarm button (unlock icon) on the remote to deactivate the alarm.
• SOS Function: Press the SOS button to trigger an immediate emergency alarm.
• Volume Adjustment: Use the Adjusting Volume button (bell icon) to cycle through volume levels.

The alarm features a 3-second delay arming function. After you arm the alarm with the remote, it will not be triggered immediately, providing you with a brief period to leave the alert area without setting off the alarm.

7. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your CPVAN Motion Detector Alarm.

7.1 Alarm Not Functioning / Weak Siren

• Check Battery Level: If the alarm is emitting a ticking sound, the batteries are low and need to be replaced. Refer to Section 6.1 for battery replacement instructions.
• Power Source: Ensure that if using wired power, the 5V/1A adapter is correctly connected and functioning.

7.2 False Alarms

• Sensor Placement: Ensure the alarm is not placed near heat sources, direct sunlight, or areas with significant air currents (e.g., near vents or open windows) that could cause false triggers.
