2. Mounting Location: Select a suitable outdoor location, such as a wall, fence post, or shed, where the solar panel can receive direct sunlight and the motion sensor can cover the desired area.
3. Secure Mounting: Use the provided screws and bolts to securely attach the alarm unit to the chosen surface. Ensure it is mounted firmly to prevent accidental dislodgement.
4. PIR Sensor Orientation: Position the alarm so the Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor faces the area you wish to monitor. The motion detection range is approximately 10-20 feet.
