4.3 Sensor Installation and Pairing
Install and pair your door/window sensors and PIR motion detectors:
- Door/Window Sensors: Install the two parts of the sensor on a door or window frame, ensuring they are aligned and within 1 cm of each other when the door/window is closed.
- PIR Motion Detectors: Mount motion detectors in corners or on walls to cover key areas, ensuring a clear line of sight within their 110-degree detection range. Avoid placing them near heat sources or direct sunlight.
- Pairing: Refer to the control panel's menu or the app for instructions on how to add new sensors. Typically, this involves putting the control panel into pairing mode and then triggering the sensor (e.g., separating the door sensor parts, waving in front of the motion sensor).
