A)

 

Remove the Battery Cover. 

B)

 

Remove the screw securing the bottom sensor, hold the sensor tab 
between your thumb and index finger and gently pull it out. (

make sure to 

note the position of the screw in the adjustment slot so that when you replace the sensor 
you return it to the correct position

). 

C)

 

Turn the sensor over and remove the 2 cover screws and the cover. 

D)

 

Be careful not to touch the pyro-electric cell on the other side of the 
computer board, with your fingers. 

E)

 

You will see 2 switch boxes on the computer board. One has 

5 switches

 

and one has 

2 switches

. The default setting for all the switches is 

OFF

.  

F)

 

To change a setting, move the switch with a small screwdriver. 

G)

 

When your adjustments have been made, replace the sensor cover, turn 
the sensor over so the pyro-electric cell (eye) faces up, and gently slide 
the sensor back into the Roboguard body, pushing it far enough to see 
the hole for the securing screw in the adjustment slot. 

H)

 

Insert the securing screw and adjust the sensor to the original position in 
the slot before tightening the screw. 

I)

 

If you have made adjustments to the beam strength, make the same 
adjustments to the top sensor. 

J)

 

Replace the battery cover. 

 
 
 

Operation Modes (5 Switch Box) 

 

 Switch 1: Delayed and Instant Mode 
 
OFF:   When the Roboguard sensor is triggered three times in rapid succession it will 
shut down for 1 minute before becoming active again. If it is triggered during the 
shutdown period it will delay for a full minute of no hits before becoming active. This 
mode is good for high traffic areas as, after the first three signals, it allows people to 
pass without constant signaling, until it reactivates. This mode also saves battery life. 
ON:  

The Roboguard sensor will signal instantly, every time it is triggered. 

 
Switch 2: Double Hit Mode 
 
OFF:   Normal operation 
ON:  

The Roboguard sensor will wait for 2 beams in the array to be triggered 

before sending a signal. This mode is good for areas with large foliage that may trigger 
one of the beams and cause false alarms. Not recommended for critical areas as an 
intruder may be able to pass through a single set of end beams without triggering the 
unit. 
 
Switch 3: Multiple Hit Mode 
 
OFF:   Normal 
ON: 

The Roboguard sensor will wait for multiple beams in the array to be 

triggered before sending a signal. This mode is normally used with high monkey or 
Hadida traffic, but it is recommended to first try repositioning the Roboguard, and/or 
blocking some beams before using this feature, as reaction time of the unit is 
impaired.
