Indoor/Outdoor PIR Motion Sensors Installation Instructions
1. Determine which detection zone/lens segment needs a masking label.
2. Peel the desired mask label from its backing and apply to the inside of the lens segment to be
blocked.
Programming Refer to the panel installation instructions for information on programming the sensor into the
panel.
Final Testing Final testing should be done to verify radio signal integrity and confirm control panel program-
ming and response. The actual transmitter range can be determined by performing a sensor test as
follows:
1. After the sensor has been mounted, remove it from its mounting plate and activate the tamper
switch to start the walk test mode.
2. Replace the sensor in its mounting plate.
3. Place the control panel in test mode. Move across the detection pattern until the sensor’s LED
turns on. STOP your motion.
4. Listen for the appropriate system response. If the system does not respond, proceed to the
“Troubleshooting” section.
Maintenance At least once a year, the range and coverage should be verified for proper operation. The end user
should be instructed to put the sensor in walk test mode and walk through the far end of the cov-
erage pattern to verify proper detection.
Replacing Batteries
When battery replacement is necessary, observe proper polarity (as shown in the battery compart-
ment) when installing the new battery. The sensor may be damaged if installed incorrectly. As
you look at the battery compartment, on the left side the positive battery end is down and on the
right side the positive end is up. When the battery is replaced, wait at least 3 minutes after install-
ing the battery before activating the walk test mode. See Figure 8 for battery locations.

Troubleshooting Follow these guidelines if the system does not respond correctly when the sensor is activated.
Check programming and re-program sensor into panel if necessary.
Move the sensor to another location and test for correct response.
Caution
!
Replace only with two AA 1.5V Alkaline batteries. Dispose of used batteries
according to manufacturer’s instructions and local government authorities.
