RISCO eyeWAVE™ Wireless PIR Camera
Models: RWX95CM/RWX95CMP
Description
The eyeWAVE™ Wireless PIR Camera Detector is a battery-powered PIR detector with an integrated camera for visual verification. It is compatible with RISCO security systems.
Features:
- PIR coverage: 12m (40’) wide angle
- Camera resolution: VGA or QVGA with ~85° field-of-view
- Discreet IR flash for imaging in complete darkness up to 10m (33’)
- Sequence of images upon event, configurable number and FPS
- Events are ignored during disarm to save battery and for privacy
- On-demand images initiated from authorized Smartphone or web browser
- Two RF channels with separate antennas: one for control, second for image transmission
- Images stored on detector until transmission to panel is complete
- Includes 2 long-life 3V lithium batteries
Installation
Step 1: Preliminary Considerations
- Select the mounting location for best coverage of the area to be protected.
- Avoid touching the lens with fingers to prevent blurry images.
- Do not mount the detector facing direct sunlight, near heat sources, or metallic objects.
- Detection sectors should be oriented towards the wall, not towards windows or shutters.
- Choose mounting height according to coverage patterns (recommended: 2.20m to 2.50m, at least 40cm from the ceiling).
- For Pet friendly models, mount vertically at right angles to the floor and ensure pets cannot climb onto furniture to exceed 1.5m (5').
Step 2: Registering the Detector into the System
The eyeWAVE must identify itself to the system receiver through a device allocation (enrollment) process. This can be done via RF sequence registering, entering the detector’s 11-digit serial number, or using RF mode panel quick key programming.
From the panel: 2) Radio Devices > 1) Allocation > 1) By RF or 2) By Code.
Through the Configuration Software: Radio Device Allocation > Enter Serial Code: [045] + [8 digits]; Indexed: Automatic or manually designated 1-32; Accessory Type: 2-Way Detector. Then click Allocate.
Refer to the System Installer Manual for more information.
Step 3: Mounting the Detector
- Open the knockout holes of the mounting bracket and use them as a template for mounting.
- Fasten the cover to the base of the detector by inserting and fastening the screw into the hole located inside the battery compartment.
- Insert the batteries and close the battery compartment cover.
- Once the bracket is installed, slide and lock the detector onto the mounting bracket in reverse sequence.
- Perform a Walk Test as described in the Walk Test section.
- Insert and fasten screw (C) into the hole located at the bottom of the detector to lock the detector to the mounting bracket.
Step 4: Performing a Walk Test
To manually initiate a walk test from the control panel:
Installation Menu: 2) Testing > 2) Zone > 3) Walk Test > 1) Start Walk Test.
The detector remains in walk test mode until any key on the panel is pressed. Display test results as follows: Installation Menu: 2) Testing > 2) Zone > 3) Walk Test > 2) Walk Test Results.
Camera Configuration
Detector parameters can be modified from the keypad or the system configuration software.
PIR Settings:
- Sensitivity: High/Low (Default: Low)
- Supervision Time: 0-255 minutes (Default: 15 min)
- LED: On/Off (Default: On)
- Operation Mode: Walk Test (transmits after each detection) or Normal (Default).
Configure camera settings through the RISCO Configuration Software (right-click on the Serial Code field in the Zones node screen and click Additional..) or through the panel quick key programming sequence:
Programming > 2) Radio Devices > 2) Modification > 1) Zone [Select (1–32)] > 1) Parameters > 6) Advanced > 5) Camera Parameters:
- Images at Alarm: 3 (1 to 7 images)
- Image Interval: 0.5 sec (0.5, 1, 2 seconds)
- Pre-Alarm Image: Yes (Yes, No) (Image capture upon each arm)
- Image Resolution: QVGA (QVGA 320X240, VGA 640X480)
- Image Quality: High (High, Low)
- Colour Image: Colour (Colour, B&W)
Image upon request
Snapshot images can be taken using web/smartphone apps (on panels supporting these applications).
Event Reporting
Every event detected by the PIR camera is recorded into the camera’s memory, including date, time, event description, source, and a video record.
LED Status
- On: Alarm
- Blinking three times (in alarm mode): Low battery
- Blinking four times (in initial learning mode): Successful write operation
Diagnostics
Diagnostic tests can be performed on the detector using the keypad or configuration software to check battery status and communication with the panel. Refer to the System Installer Manual for details.
Battery Replacement
A low battery condition is indicated by a blinking LED on each transmission.
- Remove the detector from the mounting bracket.
- Open the battery cover.
- Replace the batteries, paying attention to polarity.
- Close the battery cover.
CAUTION: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to local regulations.
