Pro Tips
Walk test mode
is entered by pressing the motion
sensor’s tamper button. The walk test lasts three
minutes.
Walk Test Operation
• The walk test LED turns on when motion
is sensed.
• The motion sensor performs a
re-calibration after each activation. The
re-calibration takes about 30 seconds.
The sensor will NOT sense motion
during the re-calibration.
• Wireless transmissions are sent for each
detection, so walk test mode can also
be used to test the panel.
3M™ VHB™ tape
works great if the surface is
properly prepared and firm pressure is applied for
over 10 seconds.
Surface Preparation
• Clean the surface
• Ensure the mounting surface
temperature is above 50 °F
Motion lockout
is active for three minutes after a motion event is detected. Motion
events will be ignored during the motion lockout period.
Motion sensitivity
can be adjusted by the sensitivity jumper on the circuit board.
• Jumper Installed (lower sensitivity): Detects person in 3 to 5 steps.
Increases pet immunity, usually for security applications.
• Jumper NOT Installed (higher sensitivity): Detects person in 2 to 4 steps.
Usually for occupancy applications.
Pet immunity
is optimized when the motion sensor is mounted at 7.5 to 9.5 feet high
and aimed
away
from house features that could allow pets to be high in the detection
field (e.g. stairs, counter tops, tall furniture).
Motion catch performance
is best when the motion sensor is positioned so a person
would typically walk across the front of the motion sensor instead of directly toward
the motion sensor.
Motion Detection Tip
s
• Provide a clear line-of-sight to the monitored area and remember that glass
blocks infrared energy.
• Aim away from windows and sunlight.
• Aim away from air conditioners, heaters or heating/cooling vents.
