    and remove the PCB.   

    (Do not touch Pyro sensor       )

2

. Choose suitable wall fixing holes.

3

. Mark wall for fixing positions (Do not route wires near mains 

    cabling,  avoid vibrating surfaces, and only use solid wall).

4

. Drill fixing holes. 

5

. Fix case to wall.

6

. Replace PCB (Do not touch Pyro sensor       ).

8. 

Refit lid to case and fasten.

 

  

7. 

Rotate microwave adjustment to select the required range

    and if required adjust the PIR range as illustrated in 

 

  

POTENTIAL FALSE ALARM HAZARDS

1

. Direct sun light on detector may cause a PIR to activate.

Final Steps -

1. Apply power and wait 2 to 3 minutes for the detector to stabilise
2. Replace cover and walk test the detector to verify the sensitivity and
check that alarms are indicated at the control panel.
3. The three LEDs are colour coded as follows-

PIR detection = Green
Microwave detection = Orange 
Alarm = Red

4. If LEDs are to be disabled remove the test link header.
It is recommended that the LEDs are disabled after installation to prevent
potential intruders from walk testing the system.     
 

2

. False Alarms may be caused by pets and animals.

3

. Do not mount detectors near heaters.

4

. Open windows may induce false alarms caused by draughts and 

    moving objects .

Analogue pulse count measures the length of time an output
signal stays over the thresholds. If the amplifier output is over
the threshold for a given length of time then an alarm is raised.
