Operating the Ceiling PIR Unit

Alarm / Chime Mode

The switch to select the mode the 
sensor  operates  in  can  be  found 
on the side of the remote control, 
as shown to the left. 

Alarm  Mode:

  When  the  sensor  detects  movement  whilst  the  unit  is  in  alarm 

mode, it will not activate immediately. There is a thirty second delay, to allow you 
to use the remote control to disarm the sensor before it goes off. If the alarm unit 
is not disarmed within this thirty second delay, then the alarm will sound at full 
volume. The alarm can still be disarmed whilst the alarm is sounding by pressing 
the disarm button on the remote control.

Chime Mode:

 When the sensor detects movement when in chime mode, it will 

sound a chime instantly. There is no entry delay nor exit delay. After the chime 
sounds, there is a short (a few seconds) delay before it can be sounded again to 
prevent is sounding constantly if, for example, someone were to be standing in 
the detection range.

Arming and Disarming the System

To arm the system, simply press ARM on the remote control. The system will arm 
into whichever mode is currently selected on the remote control.
To disarm the system, press the DISARM button. The DISARM button will disarm 
the alarm unit whether it is in Chime Mode or Alarm Mode.

Entry and Exit Delays

Once  you’ve  armed  the  alarm  unit,  it  will  enter  the  arming  delay.  This  period 
consists of forty-five seconds, during which time the LED on the front face of the 
alarm unit will flash. After the arming delay has elapsed, the alarm unit will beep 
once, indicating that it is armed.
Should the alarm be tripped (that is, it detects something) it will not sound instantly. 
Rather, there is a further thirty second delay, to give you time to disarm the system 
before the siren sounds.
