Installation considerations
When installing the motion detector, observe the following installation considerations.
Notice!
Bracket use
Using a mounting bracket might reduce catch performance. Reduced catch performance
might invalidate regulatory certification on the installation. Regulatory agencies do not
approve bracket use.
Microwave energy passes through glass and most common non-metallic construction walls.
The PIR sensor reacts to objects rapidly changing temperature within its field-of-view.
Point the motion detector away from:
Point the motion detector away from:
Glass exposed to the outdoors.
Objects that might change temperature rapidly such as heat sources, air
conditioning outlets, or surfaces heated by sunlight.
Objects that small animals such as birds and mice might climb on (stairs,
shelves, ledges, furniture) and appear in the upper zones of the PIR which
are more sensitive. Small animals in close proximity in the field of view of
the motion detector might also cause false alarms.
Do not install:
In a location where direct sunlight shines onto the detector.
Outdoors.
Near rotating machines or other moving objects within the coverage
pattern.
