insensitive area may be substantially reduced by raising the circuit

the actual sensor mounting height.
Lateral Beam Adjustment

Lateral Beam Adjustment

PIR beams have a limited horizontal adjustment range by sliding the

lens to the left or right within its guides. Beams may be displaced up to

6° in either direction (

±

1

2

 zone) using this method.

The left edge of the top lens guide functions as the index for lens

alignment. Figure 4 illustrates the relative positions of the index and lens

alignment notches. To align a lens, loosen

the two lens clamping screws and pro-

ceed as follows. (Caution: To prevent soil-

ing, handle the lens only with clean

fingers.)

1. Be sure that the lens is installed cor-

rectly (grooved side inside).

2. To set beams to point straight out,

align Notch ‘‘B’’ with index.

3. To set beams to deflect 6° to the right,

align Notch ‘‘A’’ with index.

4. To set beams to deflect 6° to the left,

align Notch ‘‘C’’ with index.
Zone Masking

Zone Masking

Selective zone masking may be re-

quired to deactivate a problem zone in

order to preserve reliable system opera-

tion. Carefully apply a piece of zone-mask-

ing foil (supplied) to the grooved inside

surface of the lens segment representing

the problem zone to block signal from the

offending device (refer to Figs. 5 and 6).

Figure 6 illustrates the zone-masking foil

supplied; the letters in the diagram iden-

tify the lens segments to which the foil

segments may be applied. Note that the

foil must be accurately positioned so as not to affect adjacent zones.

(Zone segments may be located by holding the lens up to the light.) Any

oil or grease on the surface of the lens (or on your fingers) will reduce

the adhesive quality of the foil. Important:

Important: After the foil is properly

applied, rub it down against the lens

(using the tip of a ball-point pen, for

example) to improve surface contact.

Re-aim and retest sensor after

masking any zones.

a: top layer, middle zone; use two

for end zone.

b: bottom layer, middle zone (trim

as required); use two for end zone.

Microwave Range Adjustment

Microwave Range Adjustment

The RANGE control is set at the minimum required for the desired

coverage. It is set so that the Walk-Test LED lights when motion is

detected at maximum desired range, but not beyond. Tests must be

made with the cover in place.

Set the unit to the microwave walk-test mode. Set the RANGE control

at mid position and walk-test the unit. If the desired range was insuffi-

cient, advance the RANGE control slightly clockwise. Repeat as re-

quired, increasing the control until motion is detected at the desired

range, but not beyond. (If the desired range was excessive, reduce the

RANGE control slightly (counterclockwise) and repeat this step.)
TESTING THE COVERAGE AREA

TESTING THE COVERAGE AREA

After the unit has been mounted and set up, its coverage should be

tested and, if necessary, altered to accommodate local environmental

conditions (within the coverage area). Satisfactory checks may be made

using the Walk-Test LED on the front of the unit. It is recommended that

the coverage area be tested at least once a year.
Walk-Test Mode

Walk-Test Mode

The walk-test mode is entered by holding down the WALK TEST

microswitch (see Fig. 2) as follows:

Hold until LED starts to flash:

Hold until LED starts to flash: Microwave/PIR walk-test mode;

Hold until LED comes on steady: PIR walk-test mode;

Hold until LED goes out: Microwave walk-test mode.

disruption, it is possible for the system to fail to perform as expected.

NAPCO does not represent that the product/system may not be compro-

mised or circumvented; or that the product or system will prevent any

personal injury or property loss by burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise;

nor that the product or system will in all cases provide adequate warning

or protection. A properly installed and maintained alarm may only reduce

risk of burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise but it is not insurance or a

consumer to take any and all precautions for his or her safety including,

but not limited to, fleeing the premises and calling police or fire depart-

ment, in order to mitigate the possibilities of harm and/or damage.

NAPCO is not an insurer of either the property or safety of the user’s

including incidental or consequential damages to NAPCO’s original

selling price of the product regardless of the cause of such loss or

damage.

Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty

lasts or do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or conse-

quential damages, or differentiate in their treatment of limitations of

liability for ordinary or gross negligence, so the above limitations or

exclusions may not apply to you. This Warranty gives you specific legal

rights and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
