During the Placement Test, the Sounders will
sound and one of the messages shown here will
be displayed. When “Location Good

Components must be mounted where “Good”
or “Fair” locations are indicated. If “Location

relocated. In most cases, it may only be
necessary to move the component a short
distance from its originally intended location.
No sensor should be left in a location that tests

The First Sounder must be located where the test indicates “Location Good”.
After moving a component, repeat the test. If “Good” or “Fair” locations are indicated, repeat the Placement Test
at least once to confirm the location. When test results are satisfactory, scroll to the next component and perform
the Placement Test. When satisfactory test results have been received for all components, permanently mount the
components. Refer to “Mounting the Components” in Chapter 7 for mounting instructions.
After completing a Module Placement Test, you must arm and disarm the system. Be sure
to allow the exit delay to expire before disarming the system. If you do not arm and disarm
the system, zones may show as open the next time a supervisory transmission is sent
(every 12 minutes).
4 D: A Note About WLS904 Wireless Motion Detectors:
High Traffic Shutdown Mode
To prolong battery life, the motion detector uses a feature called High Traffic Shutdown. When motion is detected,
the device will transmit to the receiver and will then shut down for six minutes. If motion is detected again during
the first six minute shutdown time, the unit will reset the shutdown timer to three minutes. Each time the detector is
tripped during the shutdown time, the timer will be reset to three minutes again. The detector will thus remain in
the shut down mode until it does not detect motion for an entire six minute period.
The High Traffic Shutdown Mode affects testing the motion detector in two ways:
• When performing the module placement test

module placement test, the unit must be tampered by removing the unit from the
backplate and replacing it. The placement test cannot be performed by creating motion in front of the device.
• When performing a system test

system test, the unit must be left idle for six minutes before testing can be performed.
Once six minutes has passed, create motion in front of the detector to see if the device is both detecting
motion and transmitting to the receiver.
Motion Detector Transmission Delay
A motion detector transmission is always delayed by six seconds. This is necessary to prevent false alarms
caused by a motion sensor transmitting before a delay zone has a chance to report. This six-second delay cannot
be altered or disabled.
Walk Test Mode
The motion detector has a walk test mode which will activate an LED for testing purposes. To put the unit in the
walk test mode, create a tamper by removing the unit from the backplate and replacing it. For the next 90
seconds, the detector’s LED will turn on for three seconds every time motion is detected. During normal operation,
this LED will not turn on.
NOTE: The Walk Test Mode will override the High Traffic Shutdown Mode.
