3. Components of the detector configuration
The detector configuration uses the following elements:
1. Potentiometer - adjusts the range of the MW detector
2. Three-position ON/OFF potentiometer - selection of additional functions
3. The „tamper disable” jumper
1.Potentiometer – to adjust the range of the MW detector
Adjust the microwave range using the potentiometer.
Turning the potentiometer to the „ +” → position increases the range, while turning the potentiometer to the „-”
→ position reduces the range of the microwave detector. Next, close the detector and check the area of the
sensor operation. Re-open the cover of the detector and adjust the microwave range. It is recommended to
increase the microwave range no more than necessary. This is to avoid false alarms.
Caution! Detection sensitivity of microwave path should be adjusted to the size of the protected space.
Microwaves can penetrate gypsum walls, doors, etc., which may generate false alarms.
2. Three-position ON/OFF potentiometer - selection of additional functions
The following functions can be activated with the dip-switch:
turning of the microwaves,
alarm memory
DUO-MASK function.
See description below in Table 1.
Table 1 Elements of the detector configuration.
Dip-switch switches
Description of the function
ON
Disabling the MW detector ON. This function is implemented by
the B / S. control input. The B / S input of the detector must be
connected to one of the control panel outputs and programmed
to supply the B / S terminal with the +12VDC when the system is
disarmed (the detector will be switched off). On the other hand,
when the system is armed, the control panel output should be
programmed so that the B / S terminal shall be shorted to ground
or disconnected (in this case the detector will operate).
DIP 1
Turning off (disabling) the
MW function
OFF
Disabling the MW detector OFF
(continuous operation of the MW microwave detector).
