Installation of Infrared (IR) Ceiling Sensor (ICS-55)
The ideal mounting location is in the center of the room's ceiling. The ideal installation is flush mounted on
a white, reflective ceiling like suspended acoustic ceiling tiles. This will ensure 360º coverage and will
minimize the transmission distance for more reliable performance.
For additional coverage, or in large rooms, a second IR sensor may be placed on ceiling or a wall and
connected to the second sensor input. As many as three sensors may be powered by the amplifier (use a
wye adapter for two of them to connect to one input).
The max cable length is 100 ft
.
Installation 1 – Attach to T-bar rail
Installation 2 – Concrete or Drywall Surface
Installation 3 – Wood Surface
FINAL STEP:
Route sensor cable to amplifier and plug into one of the amplifier’s two sensor inputs. An
illuminated green LED will indicate that the sensor is receiving power from the amplifier.
