ELK-6030P PIR Installation Manual

LIMITATIONS 

While the 6030P Passive Infrared (PIR) Motion Detector 

is a highly reliable intrusion detection device, it does not 

offer guaranteed protection against burglary.  Any intrusion 

detection device is subject to compromise or failure to 

warn for a variety of reasons:

PIR Detectors can only detect movement within a spe-

cific coverage area as diagrammed in this manual.  To 

detect movement, the PIR Detector senses the infrared 

energy that is emitted from an intruder moving across 

the sensor's field of view.  

PIR Detectors do not provide volumetric area protection.  

They create multiple beams of protection.  Intrusion 

can only be detected in unobstructed areas covered by 

those beams.

PIR Detectors cannot detect motion or intrusion that takes 

place behind walls, ceilings, floors, closed doors, glass 

partitions, glass doors, or windows.

The radio transceiver only provides communications.  

It does not have anything to do with detecting motion.

The 6030P PIR is not a Life Safety device.  The Security/

Convenience  Light  feature  is  not  a  substitute  for,  nor 

should it ever be utilized as a substitute for a visual 

notification appliance.

This deluxe 90° swivel bracket may be purchased and 

used for adjusting the sensor at up to a 90° offset from 

the mounting base.  

WARNING: DO NOT TILT the 6030P sensor down as 

that will negatively affect the Pet Immunity features.

  

OPTIONAL DELUXE 90° SWIVEL MOUNT

ANTI-TAMPER SWITCH

This switch detects the separation of the front housing 

from the backplate, resulting in a signal being transmitted 

to the control/transceiver that will cause the associated 

zone to become violated.  Snapping the front housing 

back onto the backplate will transmit a restoral.

 

  

FUNCTIONAL 'SYSTEM' TESTING

A system test should be done by physically walking across 

the 6030P coverage pattern while the system is fully 

armed.  NOTE: Allow time for the Sleep Cycle Timer to 

expire before testing.  Always notify the Central Monitoring 

Station prior to performing any testing.  

BATTERIES

The 6030P holds 2 x CR123A Lithium batteries.  The 

estimated service life is 5 to 7 years in a typical residential 

installation with the Sleep Cycle set to LG (Long), 

Battery #1 (lower) is supervised for low voltage.  When 

the sensor detects the voltage has reached 2.6 VDC or 

less (under load), a Sensor Low Battery trouble will be 

transmitted to the control/transceiver.  This trouble will 

be attached to all future transmissions until fresh new 

batteries are installed.  Battery #1 is the primary power 

source for all critical functions (motion detect and radio 

transmission) of the 6030P sensor.   

Battery #2 (upper) is not-supervised for low voltage.  

This battery is a secondary (reserve) power source for 

the 6030P critical functions, but it is the primary (sole) 

power source for the White Security/Convenience LED.  

The White Security/Convenience LED will not operate 

without a good battery installed in Battery #2 location.

We strongly recommend installing a battery in both 

locations.  These 2 batteries are electrically isolated in 

such a way that critical functions of the 6030P can draw 

power from either battery, but the White Convenience 

LED can only draw power from Battery #2.

To clear a sensor low battery trouble condition, remove 

old batteries and 

WAIT AT LEAST 20 seconds before 

installing new batteries.  Once the new batteries are 

installed, trip the sensor a couple of times.  This should 

send an "all good" and clear the low battery trouble.

Caution: Excessive use of the White Security/Conve-

nience LED will reduce the life of Battery #2.  More 

importantly, because the 6030P sensor is able to tap 

into Battery #2 for secondary power, any reduction of 

its life naturally reduces the overall operational life 

of the sensor.  If maximum sensor operational life is 

the top priority, the Security/Convenience LED may 

be disabled by turning DIP Switch #3 OFF

.

 

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

Use only approved 3V Lithiums.  Replace both batteries 

at the same time and with same date code if possible.  

Replacements can be obtained from Alarm Distributors.

1.  Remove sensor from back housing.

2.  Remove both old batteries from sensor.

3. 

WAIT AT LEAST 20 SECONDS 

before installing new 

batteries.  

Observe correct polarity

 when installing 

new batteries.  Do not bend or damage the metal bat-

tery holder contacts.  Approved 3.0 Lithium Batteries 

are:  Panasonic CR123A,  Duracell DL123A,   Varta 

CR123A, 

4.  Re-test sensor operation with the control.

BATTERY WARNING:  Risk of fire, explosion and 

burns.  Do not attempt to recharge or disassemble.  

Do not incinerate or expose to heat above 212° F 

(100° C).  Dispose of used batteries properly.  Keep 

away from children.

ACTIVATING THE WHITE 

SECURITY/CONVENIENCE LIGHT 

TM

The Security/Convenience Light (White LED) illuminates 

out the sensor front and has several operating modes:  

Quick blip in walk test when motion is detected.  Flash 

during audible alarms.  On Solid when control is armed 

to Away and motion is detected.  On Solid when output 4 

is ON and motion is detected.  Flash by command from 

control.  Solid ON by command from control.  

DIP Switch 

#3 allows the White LED to be disabled for most modes.

 

Note: This LED is never disabled in Walk Test.

Note: Most of the Security/Convenience Light modes 

require  two-way commands from the M1 Control.  

Up to 8 seconds (typical) may be required before a 

two-way command is received.  Be prepared for this 

delay during testing and operation.  Do not expect 

instantaneous reaction on these commands.

  Flash during audible alarms

Audible alarms

 (

not Silent 24hr Police)

 will make the 

White LED flash.  This continues until: the alarm cutoff 

timer expires, Control is disarmed, Battery #2 expires, 

or a rule based White LED command expires.  If motion 

is detected, the flash will change to solid for about 17 

seconds.  Audible alarm activation can only be disabled 

by removing Battery #2, NOT via DIP Switch #3.

  On Solid if Armed to Away and Motion Detected

Any motion detected while the control is armed to AWAY 

mode will make the White LED turn On solid for about 18 

seconds.  

NOTE: DIP Switch #3 must be ON

Activations using ElkRP Rules 

The White LED can be controlled using  ElkRP Rules and 

M1 Outputs 4, 5, & 6.  These 3 outputs are not physically 

available on the M1 board and can therefore be used as 

phantom outputs.  The 6030 detects the state of these 

"phantom" outputs and responds as follows:   

  On Solid if Motion Detected 

 [M1 Output 4]

If Output 4 is ON, any detected motion makes the White 

LED turn On for about 17 seconds.  Continued motion will 

restart the time.  Use a ElkRP rule to turn Output 4 On 

for a time, date, or condition.  

When Sunset - Then Turn 

Output  4 On

   Use a second ElkRP rule to turn Output 

4 Off when this LED action is no longer desired.  

When 

Sunrise - Then Turn Output 4 Off

   

NOTE: DIP Switch 

#3 must be ON.

  Flash - on command 

   [M1 Output 5]

Turning M1 Output 5 On commands the 6030 to flash its 

White LED for about 30 seconds.  Use a ElkRP rule to 

turn Output 5 On for a specific time, date, or condition.   

When 5:30PM (closing time?) - Then Turn Output 5 On 

for 38 seconds

.  The 38 seconds allows for a full 30 

seconds of flash and then turns the output back off.  To 

repeat this command the output should remain Off for at 

least 8 seconds.   

NOTE: DIP Switch #3 must be ON

  

  Solid On - on command

   [M1 Output 6]

Turning M1 Output 6 On commands the White LED to 

go Solid On for about 17 seconds.  Use a ElkRP rule to 

turn Output 6 On for a specific time, date, or condition.  

When Entry Delay Starts - Then Turn Output 6 On for 25 

seconds

   The 25 seconds allows for a full 17 seconds of 

solid and then turns the output back off.  To repeat this 

command the output should remain Off for at least 8 

seconds.   

NOTE: DIP Switch #3 must be ON

Rule Examples for the Security/Convenience Light:

Whenever Sunset

        Then Turn Output 4 On.
Whenever Sunrise

        Then Turn Output 4 Off.

Whenever Time is 6:00pm (e.g. flash for dinner time)

       Then Turn Output 5 On for 38 seconds.
Whenever Entry Delay Starts

       Then Turn Output 6 On for 25 seconds.
