3. CODE
By pressing this key, the sensor gets a new code (1
out of 65.536).
N.B.: When the sensor has been installed on the
system already, you have, after pressing the CODE
key, to erase the zone of this sensor on the base
station and re-install the sensor with its new code.
(refer to 5.9 and 5.1).
4. CONTROL INDICATOR
When you press the button TEST, or when the unit
is transmitting a signal to the base station, this
indicator will come on. When the indicator blinks
only weakly, the batteries have to be replaced.
5. BATTERY COMPARTMENT
INSTALLATION (install mode):
The motion sensor is activated by changes in
temperature. For that reason do not position the
sensor close to or above heaters or air conditioners.
The motion sensor has a range of 12m and an
opening angle of 90°. Due to the special lens, the
motion sensor it “looks down” into the area it has
to protect. Place the motion sensor always approx.
180cm above the floor and in such a way that the
sensor covers the area it has to protect well.
The supplied mounting bracket can be mounted
both in a 90° corner and on a flat surface. A
motion sensor works best when an intruder is
crossing the footprint of a sensor rather than
walking towards it.
Pressing the key for more than 3 seconds switches
the movement detector into “Walk Test mode”, in
which the detector merely lights up the diode
when it detects a movement and does not
transmit a radio signal. In this mode it is possible
to test the detection range of the sensor. When
the key is pressed again the detector returns to its
normal state.
The motion sensors operate according to the
Pulse Counting method. Depending on
temperature and settings, a possible motion will
only be reported to the base station after 30
seconds.
It may seem that the motion sensor is not
functioning properly, however, every motion
detected at any time always creates an alarm. The
advantage of this method is that the number of
false alarms is reduced dramatically.
6. MOUNTING THE ANTENNA OF EXTRA
MOTION SENSORS
Extra motion sensors are supplied with a wire
antenna and a separate antenna tube. For proper
operation, slide the plastic tube over the antenna
wire and push it firmly into the sensor housing.
PLACEMENT OF BATTERIES
Open the battery cover at the front of the motion
sensor. Place 4 AA batteries observing the polarity
instructions inside the battery compartment.
Close the battery cover.
ACTIVATING THE MS10
Push the TEST key on the back of the MS10 until
the indicator comes on
N.B.: When replacing the batteries of the MS10,
the unique code is maintained in the sensor. In
case the base station does not recognise the
MS10 after changing the batteries, you have to re-
install this sensor. You first have to erase this
specific zone (refer to 5.9) and re-install the
sensor (refer to 5.1).

4.4 MS10 MOTION SENSORS
CONTROLS
1. SENSITIVITY SWITCH
This switch allows you to set the sensitivity of the
motion sensor. This switch is particularly useful
when false alarms are easily created by heat
sources like radiators, etc. In position 1 the sensor
has the maximum sensitivity while in position 2
the sensitivity is reduced.
2. TEST
Used for activating and installing the sensor
during set-up of the system and can also be used
for testing the sensor.
door or window and the sensor will
instantaneously become part of the system again.
In case this does not work (e.g. the batteries have
been low for too long), you have to re-install this
sensor. You first have to erase this specific zone
(refer to 5.9) and re-install the sensor (refer to 5.1).
