¥ There has been a previous alarm and there might
be an intruder still in the premises.

PIR
PIR does not respond to movement
¥ Previous movement has triggered the PIR sleep
timer and is preventing subsequent movement
detection. Arm system and vacate protected
room for at least 1.5 minutes before testing.
PIR is slow to respond
¥ This is normal, the PIR has sophisticated false
alarm filtering that will filter out random
fluctuations and responds to genuine movement
across field of view, it is less sensitive walking
directly towards it.

¥ Check pets have no access to protected area.
¥ Check that PIR is not pointed at sources of heat
or moving objects, e.g. fluttering curtains.

heaters or pointing directly at windows.

¥ Batteries are low or the tamper switch is
disturbed. Check that the tamper switch spring is
making contact with base. If the tamper switch is
OK, change batteries with new alkaline
replacements.

is in test position
¥ Batteries are completely exhausted. Change
batteries with new alkaline replacements, LED will
flash for 30 seconds while components initialise.
Door contact

¥ Batteries are low or the tamper switch disturbed.
Check that the tamper switch spring is making
contact with the mounting surface. If the tamper
switch is OK, change batteries with new alkaline
replacements.
Door contact does not respond to door opening
when jumper is in test position
¥ Batteries are completely exhausted. Change
batteries with new alkaline replacements
