Garden Sentinel
Motion activated animal deterrent
Assembly Instructions
1. Install 4 x AAA NiMH rechargeable batteries
Open the battery cover (located under the sensor
housing) and install the batteries (not included). The
Sensitivity Dial should be set to ‘L’. Close the cover
tightly until you hear a click.
2. Test the sensor (dry test)
To test the sensor, set the Sensitivity Dial to ‘M’ and wave your
hand in front of the sensor lens. You should hear the internal
water valve click open and click closed three seconds later.
Troubleshooting - If this does not work, try a new battery.
Alternatively, try connecting the Garden Sentinel to water.
Note: If the sensor does not detect motion there is an 8
second reset interval after the valve closes.
3. Assemble the Garden Sentinel
Follow diagram 1 to assemble the Garden Sentinel.
These
fittings should only be tightened by hand. No tools required.
4. Connect a hose and position
Connect a hose to the Garden Sentinel via the hose attachment.
Aim the Sensor Lens towards the area you want to protect.
5. Adjust the settings
See overleaf instructions on how to calibrate the spray
distance, angle, sensitivity and time.
The Garden Sentinel can protect any open area that receives unwanted attention from animals. It uses a passive infrared
sensor to detect the temperature difference between an animal and its surroundings. Once an animal is detected, the
sprinkler is automatically activated and directs a spray of water (up to 10 metres) in the direction of the animal.
In built smart detection technology reduces false triggers which can reduce battery life. After subsequent false triggers, the Garden
Sentinel automatically reduces its sensitivity. To minimise false triggering, avoid pointing the Garden Sentinel at moving objects.
