Installation Considerations
NOTE:
The DS950 is
not
recommended for installations containing
pets or small animals. Use the DS820 or DS835 for such
installations.
•
Never install the detector in an environment that causes an alarm
condition in one technology. Good installations start with the LED
OFF
when there is no target motion. It should never be left to
operate with the tri-color LED in a constant or intermittent green,
yellow, or red condition.
•
Point the unit away from outside traffic (roads/alleys).
NOTE:
Microwave energy will pass through glass and most
common non-metallic construction walls.
•
Avoid installations where rotating machines (e.g. ceiling fans)
are normally in operation within the coverage pattern. Point the
unit away from glass exposed to the outdoors and objects that
may change temperature rapidly.
NOTE:
The PIR detector will react to objects rapidly changing
temperature within its field-of-view.
•
Eliminate interference from nearby outside sources.

Mounting
•
Select a location likely to intercept an intruder moving
across
the
coverage pattern. The surface should be solid and vibration-
free. Mounting height range is 6 to 8 feet (1.8 to 2.4 m).
Recommended mounting height is 7.5 feet (2.3 m).
•
Remove the cover. Insert a flathead screwdriver into the locking
tab hole at the bottom front of the detector. Pull the cover up and
forward.
