Latch Time

DIP Switches 4, 5 and 6 set the relay latch time. Latch 

time is adjustable from 0.5 sec to 64 sec. It indicates 

the amount of time the relay can remain active after the 

detector first sees motion.

Set-up and Testing

1.  Apply power to the unit and wait three minutes for 

detector to settle.

2.  Walk directly though coverage area toward the door  

to test the unit.

3.  Aim the detector up or down to obtain the proper 

coverage. Tighten the mounting screws after aiming  

the detector.

4.  Check the relay latch time and adjust, if necessary.
5.  Replace the cover and walk test one more time to 

ensure coverage has not changed.

Coverage

Figure 5 and 6 show the standard patterns for a  

Wall-Mounted Unit. Install the unit over the center  

of the door.
