It is possible to mount the units back to back however when 

detectors are mounted in close proximity to one another it 

is advisable to carry out a walk test to ensure that external 

objects are not influencing the microwave circuit. 

During installation, protect the electronics against water, as

trapped moisture can affect or damage the unit.

1. 

Drill the wall to accept the two fixing screws, the 

cable entry, and the tamper cup (if used). See 

Figures 1 and 2.  A hole-drilling template is provided.

Note: We recommend using the tamper cup on uneven 

wall surfaces.

2. 

Remove the cover assembly by loosening the locking 

screw. The cover hinges from the top and lifts out of 

the location slot. See Figure 3.

3. 

Feed standard eight-core alarm cable into the cable 

entry. Bare the wires and connect to the top PCB 

terminal block. See Figures 2, 4, & 5.

4. 

Screw the unit to the wall ensuring that the rear 

tamper pin is correctly located and that the tamper 

microswitch is closed. See Figure 6. To aid 

installation, two spare tamper feet are provided. One 

is 1mm longer and the other is 2mm longer than the 

tamper foot originally fitted. The tamper foot is a push 

fit and can be removed by carefully pulling it from the 

pin. See Figure 2.

5. 

When the detector is aligned, connected, and 

programmed to suit the installation, replace the front 

cover and lock as shown. See Figure 7.

CONNECTING THE UNIT

The D-TECT 3 includes jumpers that allow you to configure 

the internal end-of-line resistor values, when EOL resistors 

are required. Values are 1K, 2K2, 3K3, 4K7, 5K6 and 6K8 

Ω. 

Figure 8 shows:

Alternatively, you can remove the jumpers and connect a

discrete resistor directly to the alarm or tamper outputs, as

specified by the third-party equipment.

INTRODUCTION

The D-TECT 3 is an outdoor motion detector and alarm 

trigger that uses two independent passive infra-red 

detectors plus a microwave sensor module. All three 

sensors must trigger to cause the detector to signal an 

alarm. Utilising triple detection technology, the D-TECT 3 

delivers precise, reliable presence detection.

QUICK INSTALLATION

1. 

Mount and connect the detector following the 

instructions given later in this sheet.

2. 

Apply supply voltage to the unit. The detection LED 

(blue) flashes three times.

3. 

Wait approximately 2 to 3 minutes to allow the 

detector to settle.

4. 

Press the programming button once to activate walk 

test mode. The detection LED is now enabled for five 

minutes.

Note: The front cover must be fitted when walk testing.

The default settings are:

• 

Range: 20 meters

• 

Pulse count: 1 (always set to 1 during walk test)

• 

Detection LED: off (always enabled during Walk Test)

• 

‘S’ Lux Level: 5

• 

Contacts:

 Alarm 1: Normally Closed

 Alarm 2: Normally Open

• 

Contacts Timer: 5 (seconds)

MOUNTING THE UNIT

WARNING

• 

NYLON WASHERS PROVIDED MUST BE USED 

WITH SCREWS

• 

ENSURE CABLE ENTRY AND SCREW HOLES 

ARE SEALED WITH WATER BASED SEALANT

• 

DO NOT USE SILICONE BASED SEALANT

To reduce the possibility of the microwave circuit being 

affected it is recommended to leave a minimum space of 3 

metres between D-TECT 3 sensors when mounted along-

side each other. When facing each other a minimum space 

of 15 metres is recommended.
