Mongoose M60AM, Operation Manuals

Page: 21 / 25

2 STAGE MICROWAVE SENSOR– M60AM (optional on other models)
The microwave should detect intrusions into the protected areas. Two fields are generated, one
outside the vehicle and one inside. Intrusions into the exterior area will chirp the siren whilst
intrusions into the interior will fully sound the siren.

The microwave plugs in directly to the white sensor port of the M80.

As the field shapes cannot be altered, the location and position of the sensor is critical.
Do not mount under metallic objects or where coins or CD’s are stored. Seat frames will
shield the sensor giving areas of non-coverage. It will penetrate non-metallic objects,
but will not penetrate metal. It will work with windows down, sunroofs open or even in a
convertible with the top down. Air movement, noise and temperature should not affect
the microwave.

The two field sizes are independently adjustable from the potentiometers on the front of
the sensor.
1. Exterior : Green LED. Turn clockwise to increase sensitivity, anticlockwise to
decrease sensitivity (very fine adjustment - fraction of a turn only).
2. Interior : Red LED. Turn clockwise to increase sensitivity, anticlockwise to
decrease sensitivity (very fine adjustment - fraction of a turn only).
Do not adjust interior field greater than exterior. The ‘noise pollution control’ feature will turn off
each trigger input after 3 intrusions into each. Reset by remote to re-activate the sensor.
