3.2 Mounting the Alarm Unit
The alarm unit can be mounted using the provided bracket, screws, or adhesive pad. Choose a location that provides optimal detection coverage and is within the desired communication range of the remote control (up to 328ft/100m in open areas).
- Optimal Placement: Position the alarm unit where its infrared sensor can detect movement effectively. The detection range is approximately 16-26ft (5-8m) with a wide-angle detection of 110 degrees.
- Adjustability: The mounting bracket allows the alarm to tilt and rotate, enabling you to point the PIR sensor precisely where needed.
- Installation Method:
- Screws: For a permanent and secure installation, use the provided screws to attach the bracket to a wall or surface.
- Adhesive Pad: For a less permanent solution, use the adhesive pad to stick the bracket to a clean, dry surface.
