BATTERY LIFE
Use PP3 9 volt Alkaline or Lithium.
Because the ESD has very low power consumption when idle (typically 20 micro amps) it means that the
battery will last for a long time. The battery life will depend upon the amount of activations but it is usual for
a standard alkaline battery to last about eighteen months. I very busy locations where the ESD operates
many times a day it is recommended that a lithium battery be used which has a much higher capacity.
AERIAL
Fit the aerial to the small screw on the rear top centre of the detector. To achieve the best range results you
will need to fit the ESD where it has the least amount of obstacles between it and the receiver. The aerial
should be vertical for best results and the detector should be fitted at 2.5metres above the ground. The
higher the receiver is placed above the ground the greater the range will be. Avoid fitting the ESD to metal
cladding or near large metal objects, as this will also affect range.
CODE SETTING
Each ESD detector has a fixed unique code, which has to be learnt by any receiver that is to operate with it.
1. Press the learn button on the receiver until the red learn led lights.
2. Now connect the battery to the ESD and observe the learn led which will flash twice indicating that it has
successfully learnt the code. If the receiver has already learnt the code the led will not flash. The
receiver can learn up to 16 detector and switches. (See receiver instructions)
SET-UP NOTES
The ESD will transmit immediately the battery is fitted so have the receiver ready in learn mode as you do
this.
Turn the timer adjuster to MIN and the light sensor adjuster to DAY.
Fit the aerial to the rear of the detector head.
The ESD can only be tested with the aid of a receiver. There is no visible indication from the detector.
Using an ESR-1, ESR-2 or ESA-1 receiver wired to lighting, walk about within the detection area and
observe the lighting that will switch on for the minimum period (5 seconds).
If an ESB-1 is used, listen for a bleep each time detection occurs. When you are happy with the operation
turn the light sensor adjuster anti-clockwise about ¾ of it’s travel. Do not turn fully anti-clockwise as it may
never get dark enough to operate. Now turn the timer adjuster clockwise as required. Fully clockwise will
give a time of 10 minutes. This timer will only affect ON/OFF receivers such as the ESR-1 and ESA-1. It
will not affect the ESB-1 bleep duration. This is fixed at 4 seconds regardless.
