PG9944/8944/4944 Installation
Instructions
W ireless Out door PIR Det ect or wit h Camera
Overview
The PGx944 uses eight PIR sensors, each acting as a
Quad detector to accurately and reliably determine
whether an alarm is justified. Features & benefits
include:
l
Optimum performance even in poor weather con-
ditions such as snow, rain, dust, wind and direct
sunlight.
l
Tamper protection prevents opening and removal
from wall.
l
Built-in link quality indicators reduce installation
time by eliminating the need for the installer to
physically approach the control panel.
l
Microprocessor-controlled compensation.
l
Immunity to pets weighing up to 18 Kg (40lb).
NOTE:
Pet immunity feature has not been evaluated
to UL 639 or ULC-S306- 03 due to the feature not
being addressed in either standard.
CAMERA FEATURES
l
Color or black & white images
l
Auto-setup for brightness and contrast via the con-
trol panel
l
Day and night CMOS camera, with IR illumination.
This allows taking pictures in full darkness
l
Camera range of 12m (40ft); with IR illumination
10m (33ft)
l
Camera operation modes:
l
Post alarm – pictures are taken after detec-
tion by detector.

Device Setup
WARNING! To comply with FCC and IC RF exposure
compliance requirements, the PIR detector should be
located at a distance of at least 20 cm from all persons
during normal operation. The antennas used for this
product must not be co-located or operated in con-
junction with any other antenna or transmitter.
NOTE:
The PG Series wireless PIR Motion detectors
shall be installed and used within an environment that
provides the pollution degree max 2 and overvoltages
category II in NON HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS.
The equipment is designed to be installed only by qual-
ified service persons.
NOTE:
To ensure the continued operation of all wire-
less devices after performing a system default, a
global upload of all wireless programming via DLS is
recommended before defaulting the system. After
completing the system default, download the wireless
programming.
NOTE:
Back tamper switch is required for UL com-
mercial burglary installations.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
Initial battery installation should be done on a flat sur-
face. After inserting the batteries, the LED flashes for
60 seconds and the detector enters a 15 minute local
diagnostic mode.
NOTE:
When manually programming wireless
devices, if a device has been powered up for more
than 48 hours it cannot be enrolled into the system
until the device has been tampered and restored.
When programming the panel using Quick Enroll, fol-
low the steps detailed in "Enrollment."
NOTE:
After restoring a low battery trouble the sys-
tem may take up to 5 minutes to clear the trouble.
ENROLLMENT
To quick enroll:
1.
On a keypad press [*] [8] [Installer Code] [804]
[000].
2.
Press and hold the device enroll button until the
LED lights steady and then release the enroll but-
ton while the LED is still lit. A confirmation mes-
sage then appears on the keypad.
3.
Press [*] key to confirm ID.
4.
Enter [3 digit zone #].
5.
Enter [3 digit zone type].
6.
Enter [1 digit partition #] for all desired partitions
and press [#]. If using an LCD keypad you can
scroll to the desired partitions and press [*] to
toggle the partition.
7.
On an LCD keypad enter the label by using word
library.
To pre-enroll:
1.
Remotely configure the unique ID number into the
system. For more information see the HSM2HOST
manual.
2.
When on-site, press the device enroll button.
NOTE:
If the wireless device has been powered for
more than 48 hours without being enrolled, tamper
and restore the device to enroll it.
PLACEMENT AND WALK TESTING
Before permanently mounting any wireless device,
temporarily mount the device and perform a Place-
ment test. Perform a walk test of the coverage area at
least once a year to ensure that the detector is work-
ing correctly.
1.
Tamper the device by removing the cover.
2.
Restore the tamper. The device
now enters Placement test
mode for 15 minutes.
3.
Trip the device and the red
LED blinks once to identify
that a signal is being sent to the
receiver and then blinks three
times to identify the signal
strength. To perform a walk
test, walk across the far end of
coverage pattern in both dir-
ections. The following table indicates received sig-
nal strength indication.
LED Response

Green LED blinks
STRONG
Orange LED blinks
GOOD
Red LED blinks
POOR
No blinks
No communication
IMPORTANT!
Only GOOD or STRONG signal
strengths are acceptable. If you receive a POOR sig-
nal from the device, re-locate it and re- test until a
GOOD or STRONG signal is received.
NOTE:
For UL/ULC installations, only STRONG sig-
nal levels are acceptable. After installation verify the
product functionality in conjunction with the com-
patible receivers HSM2HOST9, HS2LCDRF(P) 9,
HS2ICNRF(P) 9 and PG9920.
NOTE:
For detailed Placement instructions refer to
the control panel Reference Manual.
MOUNTING THE DEVICE
Installation Notes:
The top cover should only be
accessed by authorized service personnel or man-
ufacturer. Do not obscure the detector field of view
with large objects. Install in position such that expec-
ted intruder motion is perpendicular to the zones of
detection.
Alarms triggered by conditions such as weather, blow-
ing leaves and brush, or related environmental con-
ditions, etc., need to be considered when assessing the
installation and application. If nuisance trips are not
tolerable it is recommended that the wireless outdoor
intrusion detection unit is enrolled in the system to a
zone that is defined as a trouble alarm circuit.
1.
Fix the bracket firmly on a stable wall or pillar.
The orientation of the fixed bracket must be as par-
allel as possible to the surveyed ground surface.
2.
Mark drilling point
3.
Drill
4.
Fasten with three long screws
5.
Fasten the detector to the bracket with two short
screws.
Adjust the detector's horizontal and
vertical angles according to the
surveyed ground surface. The ver-
tical angle indicator position for
various installation height and cov-
erage distance combinations is
detailed in the following table (the
information refers to a relatively
flat surveyed area. Verify the ver-
tical adjustment by walk-test).

DEVICE OPTIONS
[003]
Hightraffic Shutdown - Default [01]
Activating this feature helps conserve battery
power when the system is disarmed by con-
figuring a reporting timer. When motion is
detected, the device transmits an alarm to the
receiver and will not report any further events
until the timer expires. Any motion detected
during the configured period will be reported
once the timer expires. No Delay causes the
device to report an alarm each time the
detector is tripped.
