CM-RQE70A PIR ‘REQUEST TO EXIT’ DETECTOR

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

3.  Align the sensor back plate with the mounting holes and screw in    
  the 2 x #6 screws, securely fastening the sensor back plate to the wall.

4.  Rotate the sensor PCB assembly into the back plate.

Wiring the Sensor

The Camden CM-RQE70A uses a plug-in wiring harness for all electrical 
connections. The Pin out is described below.

Adjusting the Sensor Detectable Range 

The sensor’s detectable range can be adjusted vertically and horizontally.

Horizontal Adjustment

The horizontal adjustment of the sensor is accomplished by adjusting 
the 2 louvers inside the lens area. The louvers are adjusted using a 
small flat head screwdriver. On the bottom of the sensor housing 
there are 2 adjustment screws. Turning the screws adjusts the louvers 
left and right horizontally, therefore changing the beam direction and 
width. Once the horizontal adjustment is complete, place the tamper 
label (provided) over the set screws to avoid accidental adjustment.

Vertical Adjustment

     

 

 

 

The sensor beam is vertically   

     

 

 

 

adjusted by rotating the  

 

     

 

 

 

PCB assembly barrel within the  

     

 

 

 

mounting back plate. Once the  

     

 

 

 

vertical adjustment is complete,  

     

 

 

 

tighten the lock down screw to  

     

 

 

 

prevent the barrel from moving.

Once all adjustments are made, install the sensor cover and install the 
set screw provided.

Mode 4: Secondary Activation Mode

The sensor requires activation of Input #3 before activating the output 
relay.

4. INSTALLATION

Remove the sensor cover

     

 

 

 

1. Insert a small flat  

 

     

 

 

 

screwdriver into the bottom    

     

 

 

 

end of the housing cover and   

     

 

 

 

gently pry the cover from the   

 

 

 

   main 

assembly. 

     

 

 

 

2. Loosen the sensor vertical    

 

 

 

   adjustment 

screw.

     

 

 

 

3. Rotate the sensor PCB  

 

     

 

 

 

assembly until it is removed    

     

 

 

 

from the back plate.

Install the Back Plate

1.  Using a 3/16” drill, drill 2 mounting holes 3 ¼” apart at the  

 

  desired height of installation.

2.  Insert the 2 x 3/16” wall plugs into the holes
