INSTALLATION

1. Select the Mounting Position

Orient the detector so that intrusion passes across the detection field, not into the sensor.

Allow 110mm (4.4") above the sensor to enable opening the cover.

Choose an installation height of 0.8m to 1.2m (2.7 to 4ft).

Ensure the sensor can be mounted on a perpendicular wall or pole that would make its detection pattern parallel to the ground.

Diagram illustrating optimal mounting position: sensor oriented to detect motion across the field, avoiding direct sunlight and swaying vegetation. Recommended height is 0.8-1.2m (2.7-4ft). The sensor should be mounted parallel to the ground.

2. Prepare the Sensor for Mounting

  1. Remove the Cover by pulling from the bottom.
  2. Remove the Detector from the Back Box by pulling from the top.

Diagram showing how to detach the sensor cover by pulling from the bottom, and then detach the detector from the back box by pulling from the top.

3. Install / Replace the Battery

IMPORTANT:

  1. If necessary, loosen the Captive Lock Screw and lift the Cover off. Then, remove 4 screws that secure the Detector to the Back Box.
  2. Observe the proper polarity and replace the batteries. Ensure the positive side of the battery is pointing away from the springs.

Diagrams show the process of removing the sensor cover and detector, and inserting batteries with correct polarity.

4. Mount the Sensor

WALL MOUNTING

  1. Install the Back Box on the wall using two M4 x 20 mounting screws.
  2. Secure the Detector to the Back Box.
  3. Fasten with four self-tapping M3 x 14 screws.
  4. Perform Settings & Adjustments.
  5. Perform a Walk Test.
  6. Secure the Cover with the M3 x 10 Captive Lock Screw.
  7. Program the control panel.

Diagram illustrates wall mounting steps, showing screw placement and the detector being secured to the back box. A note indicates that sponge packing might need to be moved to reveal screw holes.

POLE MOUNTING

  1. Use a pole with an outside diameter of 43-48mm (1.69-1.89").
  2. Attach the Brackets to the Back Box with two M3 x 8 screws.
  3. Using the Pole Brackets and four M4 x 30 screws, fasten the Back Box to the pole.
  4. Secure the Detector to the Back Box and fasten with four self-tapping M3 x 14 screws.
  5. Perform Settings & Adjustments.
  6. Perform a Walk Test.
  7. Secure the Cover with the M3 x 10 Captive Lock Screw.
  8. Program the control panel.

5. Perform Settings & Adjustments

SET THE DETECTION LENGTH

The length of the lower detection area determines the detection length. The upper detection area stays parallel to the ground at all times. The lower detection area can be adjusted by the Detection Length Adjustment Switch. Detection length is limited by the lower detection area, as both upper and lower areas must be blocked simultaneously for activation.

IMPORTANT: This sensor detects temperature differences between the moving object and the background. The object must move for detection. If traffic is near the detection area, adjust the detection area length 1.5 to 2.0m (5 to 7ft) back from traffic.

Detection Logic:

Press and slide the Detection Length Adjustment Switch to the desired position.

Detection Length Settings (based on 1m / 3.3ft mounting height):

PositionDetection LengthMax Distance (feet)
D (Default)2.0m (6.7ft)6 ft
C5.0m (16.7ft)16 ft
B8.0m (26.7ft)26 ft
A12.0m (40.0ft)40 ft

Note: The sensor's mounting height affects detection length, which can also vary due to environmental conditions.

Diagrams illustrate the detection logic with beams blocked and not blocked. Graphs show detection length versus distance for positions A, B, C, and D.

SET THE DETECTION AREA ANGLE

The detection area angle is 90° with 7 "fingers" (zones). The angle can be adjusted in 15° increments from the center up to 45° in either direction.

Hold the sensor and turn it to the desired direction. Each click represents a 15° change.

Top-view diagram shows the 90° detection pattern with 7 zones, indicating adjustable angles up to 45° in either direction. A second diagram shows how to rotate the sensor for directional adjustment.

IF NECESSARY, CONFIGURE DETECTION MASKING

This feature allows masking specific detection segments to prevent false alarms from sources like pets or heat sources.

  1. Spread the Cover and gently press on the Lens to remove the Lens Holder.
  2. Separate the Lens from the Cover.
  3. Identify the segments on the Lens to be masked.
  4. Apply the adhesive Masking Strip(s) inside the lens to mask the desired segments.
  5. Replace the Lens by aligning its cutouts with the projections inside the cover. Snap in place with the Lens Holder.
  6. Ensure the Lens Holder is held by the cover prongs and tabs.

Diagrams detail the detection masking process: separating the lens, identifying segments on the lens, applying masking strips, and reassembling the components.

SET THE SENSITIVITY

Set the Sensitivity Select Switch to the desired sensitivity: Low, Medium, or High.

Image displays the sensor's side panel with DIP switches and the Sensitivity Select Switch. The DIP switches are labeled for Walk Test, Battery Saving Timer, and Pulse Count, with default settings indicated.

SET THE DIP SWITCHES

Configure the following settings using the DIP switches:

  1. Switch 2 (Battery Saving Timer): Set for 5 seconds (for frequent alarm transmission, reduces battery life) or 120 seconds (default). The alarm output operates once per selected period.
  2. Switch 3 (Pulse Count): Selectable for 2 or 4. A pulse count of 2 requires fewer detection steps for an alarm, while 4 requires more.
  3. Switch 1 (Walk Test): Set to ON to enable the Walk Test mode.

Default Settings: Switch 1: OFF, Switch 2: 120s, Switch 3: 2 (Pulse Count).

Diagram shows the DIP switches with labels for Walk Test, Battery Saving Timer, and Pulse Count, and indicates default positions.

6. Perform a Walk Test

NOTE: With the Walk Test switch set to ON, the LED will light when the detector is tripped, and the alarm is generated instantly.

  1. Set the walk test switch (DIP switch 1) to ON. Replace the cover.
  2. Perform a walk test through the detection area and verify satisfactory results.
  3. Allow the detection area to remain static and check for false or unwanted detections.
  4. If necessary, adjust the detection area (refer to "Perform Settings & Adjustments").
  5. Repeat the walk test through the detection area and verify satisfactory results.
  6. Set the walk test DIP switch 1 to OFF, and secure the Cover with the M3 x 10 Captive Lock Screw.

Notes for Walk Test:

Diagrams illustrate approximate detection ranges for position B (8m/27ft) and position A (12m/40ft) during a walk test.

7. Program the Control Panel

Before use, program the transmitter's serial number, input type (RF Supervised), response type, and loop # (set to 1) into the control panel. Refer to the control panel's instructions for details.

Note: When learning the control panel by walking, use the Walk Test setting or temporarily set the Battery Saving Timer to 5 sec. After programming, ensure the Walk Test switch is set to OFF and the Battery Saving Timer is set to the desired setting.
