1. INTRODUCTION

. INTRODUCTION

. INTRODUCTION

. INTRODUCTION

The Scantronic 460 is a digital, microprocessor-controlled MW /
PIR detector that can be adapted to the size of the protected area
by use of a 

model selector

. A different digital signal processing

(DSP) is used upon selection of each model, thus optimizing both
PIR and MW performance within the protected area.
The PIR section of the Scantronic 460 employs a sphere-shaped
lens with cylindrical elements (patented) for uniform detection
sensitivity over the full range of 12 meters (40 ft). Advanced 

True

Motion Recognition™ 

algorithm (patented)

 

allows the Scantronic

460 to distinguish between the true motion of an intruder and any
other disturbances which cause false alarms.
A TST (Test) input permits switching the detector to the walk test
mode remotely without removing the front cover. An on-board
motion event jumper determines whether 1 or 2 consecutive
motion events would trigger an alarm.

3.1 General Guidelines

A.

Microwave radiation passes through glass and non-metallic
walls. Be sure, therefore, to select the correct model in
accordance with the room size. This is important to minimize
the effect of movements occuring beyond room limits which
might cause the MW section to trip.

B.

Large reflecting objects (especially metals) in the coverage
area can distort the microwave detector's coverage pattern.

C.

If two Scantronic 460 units are installed in the same room or
on opposite sides of a shared wall, they should not face each
other and must be mounted at least 20 cm (0.6 ft) apart.

Attention! 

At power up, the detector undergoes a 60-second

stabilization period, indicated by alternate flashing of the red
and green LEDs.
