Testing the PIR Detector
Before testing the PIR Detector ensure that the system is in Test mode (for a
Control Panel System) or Service Mode (for a Siren only System).
With the PIR Detector set in Walk Test mode (Switch 4) and mounted in position on
the wall, allow -3 minutes for the PIR Detector to stabilize before commencing the
Walk Test.
1. Walk into and move slowly around the protected area, each time the PIR Detector
senses your movement the LED behind the Lens will flash.
If necessary re-adjust the detection pattern by changing the mounting position of
the PCB within the PIR housing.
. Reconfigure the PIR Detector for normal operation mode by setting DIP4 of SW3 to
OFF and refit in position.
Note:
In normal operation, the LED behind the PIR Detector lens will not flash on
movement detection, (unless the battery is low).
Note:
When the PIR Detector is fully installed i.e. battery cover is refitted; the
unit will not detect movement for approximately 45 seconds after each activation.
(This feature is present to conserve battery power and maximize the battery life).
