mation beep). Successively it will be sufficient to position the magnet in the same
position for one second and move it away, in order to activate the TEST state.
Attention! The detector remains permanently in TEST when the TAMPER pu-
shbutton is open (box open)
g) Supervision
: AF974R-DB transmits an operating status signal about every
40 minutes, which is managed by the AVE supervised control panels - see “su-
pervision function” of the control panels used.
h) Low Battery signal
: the detector signals via radio to the control panel and
locally via 5 beeps that the batteries must be replaced.
3. INSTALLATION
- respect the sequence of the operations
a) Programming the detector on the control panel
or receiver (also see
the instructions of the control panel/receiver used):
• Open the detector by loosening the screws on the bottom and open the lid of
the battery compartment.
• Place the control panel in PROGRAMMING mode, in detector learning condi-
tion on the desired zone
• Extract the battery isolating film, powering the detector: programming will be
confirmed by a Beep from the control panel.
• Terminate the procedure by assigning the name to the detector (written and
vocal label on the panel). Close the battery compartment.
Double alarm function (see point 2 b):dispose the panel for AND detector pro-
gramming. The first transmission starts when the detector will be supplied; the
second will start when the dip 5 will be switched ON. In this mode the panel will
require two alarm detections within 30 seconds to switch in alarm status: both
signals will give from the same detector, as well as when 2 different detectors
are used.
b) Positioning
: Determine the position and the height of installation of the
detector depending on the protected area that is to be obtained (see figure). Use
the swivel for corner installation, fastening it to the sliding bracket supplied with
the detector, in a way to allow extraction. If in doubt regarding the definitive posi-
tion, it is recommended to fix the detector temporarily and make the adjustments
and relative detection tests before fixing definitively.
Attention!
using the swivel means loosing part of the anti-removal protection.
The magnet can be positioned on the bracket, but is not joined to the wall. If the
magnet is not used, the protection must be excluded by placing dip-switch 5 in
the ON position.
Attention!
height of installation and positioning Device installed in vertical posi-
tion: in this case the protection has form of horizontal fan, parallel to the ground.
The height of installation must be determined according to the area that should
be left not protected for allowing the passage of small animals.
Device installed in horizontal position: in this case the protection will be a vertical
“curtain”, with possibility of ground detection, except for inclination of the device
(see relative drawings).
Do not place the detector in direct sunlight to prevent internal overheating (gre-
enhouse effect): this does not damage the detector but causes an increase of
the PIR sensibility, not necessary when temperature compensation is activated.
Prevent the protected area being open to weather conditions where possible
(snow, rain), because they could be possible causes of an improper alarm.
c) Adjustments (see diagram)
: To check the adjustments, use the detector
LED, which must be placed in TEST state (see point 2f): The green LED indicates
the PIR detection: successively it changes to orange when the movement is
confirmed by the MW part; when the delay time has passed (PT2) the LED turns
red indicating the alarm transmission. The detection tests must be performed
with the detector closed.
• Adjust the PIR sensitivity (dip-switch 2), with impulse count on 1 (off), limiting
the protected area to that effectively necessary.
• Adjust the sensitivity of the MW part (RANGE - PT1), with intervention time at
minimum, as a consequence of the previous adjustment.
• Close the detector, position it and check the protected area via the LED,
by moving the same: for a precise definition of the intervention area it is
recommended to turn around agitating the arms instead of
advancing/retracting/transversing. If necessary, open the detector and
reduce or increase the range, repeating the previous tests.
• When the protected area has been defined, if this is horizontal (parallel to the
ground) it is recommended to take the PIR impulse count to 2 (dip-switch 3
ON) in order to reduce the possibility of untimely signals. If the curtain
protection is used (vertical protected area) evaluate this aspect depending on
the possibility of quick passing.
• Then increase the DELAY time (duration of the movement in the area) by the
MW part at maximum, compatibly with detection needs: this reduces the
possibilities of untimely alarms caused mainly by flying animals in the
protected area.
Examples of possible settings:
• if you want a “quick” detection at 6m, leave all dip switches in OFF except the
number 6 to ON and adjust both the trimmers (PT1 and PT2), delay and
capacity, to the minimum value by turning them counterclockwise.
• if you want a “quick” detection at
12m set the dip switches 2 and 6 to ON,
leave the other ones to OFF. Adjust the
trimmer of the microwave range (PT1)
to maximum value by turning it clockwise
while the trimmer delay (PT2) to the mini-
mum value by turning it counterclockwise.
Note
: The integration time of the micro-
wave (delay - adjustable with trimmer
PT2), is the duration the movement in
the protected area. If for example it is
decided to set this time to 1.5 sec with
the delay trimmer, this means that, once
the infrared section has detected an in-
truder and has turned on the microwave
section, if the movement in the protected
area lasts for 1, 5 sec or higher, the mi-
crowave generates the alarm, otherwise
goes to rest. An appropriate setting of the
integration time reduces the possibility of
false alarms.
d) LED exclusion
: for safety reasons and
to prevent over-consumption of the detec-
tor LED switch-on at the end of the tests
must be excluded, taking dip-switch 4 to
ON. They function anyhow in the test sta-
te. Any functioning controls of the detector
can be performed using the control panel
TEST functions and/or receiver indicators.
e) Temperature compensation
: the
function consists in the automatic increase
of the PIR sensitivity when the tempera-
ture in the detector exceeds 30°C and is
activated by placing dip-switch 6 at ON.
As described in point b) of this paragraph
it must be considered that in case of ex-
posure to the sun the temperature inside
the detector can be much higher than the
environment temperature, which does not
require increase in sensitivity.
