ENGLISH 

1. INTRODUCTION 

The 

V-motion MCW

 and 

V-Pet MCW

 (pet immune) are microprocessor-

controlled wireless digital PIR detectors.  

The detectors features are as follows: 

 Cylindrical lens with uniform detection sensitivity throughout its 

operating range, up to 12 meters (40 ft).  

  V-motion MCW includes wall creep zone protection. 

 In 

V-Pet MCW

, Target Specific Imaging™ (TSI)

 

technology is used for 

distinction between human beings and pets weighing up 

to 27 kg 

(60lb). 

  Incorporates a fully supervised PowerCode transmitter. 

 The advanced 

True Motion Recognition™ 

algorithm (patented) allows 

distinguishing between the true motion of an intruder and any other 

disturbances which may cause false alarms. 

  Sophisticated frequency domain digital signal processing. 

  No vertical adjustment is needed. 

 An on-board motion event jumper determines whether 1 or 2 

consecutive motion events trigger an alarm. 

  After detection, the detector disarms itself to save battery power. It 

rearms (reverts to the ready state) if there is no subsequent detection 

throughout the following 2-minute period. 

  An optional version provides better protection for systems compliant 

with DD243. After initial detection, the detector is capable of 6 

additional detections for a period of 5 minutes.  

Further detection is possible only if no movement occurs during the 

following 2 minutes. The detector will revert to the initial state if there is 

no movement for an additional 5 minutes. 

  Very low current consumption. 

  Microprocessor-controlled temperature compensation. 

  Sealed chamber protects the optical system. 

  Front and back tamper protection 

  White light protection. 

  Elegantly styled, sturdy case. 

For UL installations:

 The detector is for use with UL listed control unit 

P only. Pet immunity has not been evaluated by UL.

3. INSTALLATION 

3.1 General Guidance

 

(see fig. 3) 

1. Keep away from heat sources. 

2. Do not expose to air drafts. 

3. Do not install outdoors. 

4. Avoid direct sunshine.

5. Keep wiring away from power 

cables. 

6. Do not install behind partitions. 

7. Mount on solid stable surface.

3.2 Installation Procedure 

1. Mounting - see fig. 4. 

2. Battery installation (see fig. 4) 

3. Detector reset: 

With the battery in place, press the tamper switch (see fig. 4) and 

release. The front LED will flash for about 2 minutes until the detector 

stabilizes.  

Note:

 The detector transmits a low battery signal upon detection of 

low voltage. It is recommended to wait about 1 minute after battery 

removal, before inserting the new battery. 

4. Enrolling: 

Enroll the detector's ID into the alarm system memory according to the 

alarm system installation instructions. When you are instructed to 

transmit, press tamper switch again and release. You may enroll the 

detector's ID while the detector's LED flashes. 

5. Jumpers settings - see fig. 4. 

6. Walk-test the coverage area - see fig. 2. Walk across the far end of 

coverage pattern in both directions. The LED should light for 2-3 

seconds each time your motion is detected. 

Important!

 Instruct the user to walk test at least once a week to verify 

proper function of the detector.
