C.
Start by moving into the coverage area at the far edge. The
green LED should light steadily for up to 5 seconds each time
your motion is detected.
D.
If your motion was not detected at the far edge of the
coverage area, advance the MW RANGE control slightly
toward MAX and try again until your motion is detected
reliably at the far edge.
Caution!
The MW detection range must not exceed the far
edge of the desired coverage area.
E.
Walk across the coverage area at various ranges and verify
that your motion is consistently detected.
Note:
If PIR trips interfere with your test, disable the PIR by
inserting a small piece of cardboard in front of the sensor.
3.12 Alarm Walk Test
A.
Set DIP switches SW-2 and SW-3 to ON (both LEDs are
enabled).
B.
Install the front cover in place.
C.
Walk across the detector’s field of view in different directions,
at various distances from the detector, and verify proper
detection throughout the detector's coverage area (the red
LED will illuminate for 1.3 to 5 seconds).
D.
When done, remove the cover and set DIP switches SW-2
and SW-3 to OFF to prevent unauthorized people from tracing
the coverage pattern.
E.
Remount the cover and fasten it to the base using the small
screw at the bottom.
Attention!
To assure proper function of the detector, the range
and coverage area should be checked at least twice a year.
Furthermore, it is recommended to perform a walk test at the far
end of the coverage pattern to assure an alarm signal prior to
each time the alarm system is armed.

4.1 Product Limitations
Although this detector is a highly reliable device, it does not
guarantee complete protection against intrusion. Even the most
sophisticated detectors can sometimes be defeated or may fail to
warn because:
A.
The detector will not function if the DC power supplied to it is
incorrect or improperly connected.
B.
Detection is confined to the area covered by the detection
pattern as adjusted by the installer.
C.
A PIR detector does not provide full volumetric coverage of
the protected area. It can only detect motion that disturbs the
sensitive beam array spread within the protected space.
D.
Motion will not be detected by PIRs if it takes place behind
closed doors, floors, walls, ceilings, glass partitions, windows
and shutters.
E.
The detection ability of the PIR detector may be reduced by
malicious masking or by spraying various materials on the
lens or by mechanical tampering with the optical system.
F.
As the ambient temperature of the protected area approaches
the range of 32°C - 40°C (90°F - 105°F), the PIR detector's
performance can decrease.
G.
The protection pattern provided by the microwave detector
may be altered by metal objects or foil-covered insulation.
H.
Even the most reliable electrical devices, including this
detector, may go wrong because of an unexpected failure of a
component part.
The above list includes the most common reasons for failure to
detect intrusion, but it is by no means comprehensive. It is
therefore recommended that the detector and the entire alarm
system be checked weekly, to ensure proper performance.
An alarm system should not be regarded as a substitute for
insurance. Home and property owners or renters should be
prudent enough to continue insuring their lives and property, even
though they are protected by an alarm system.
4.2 Compliance with Standards
This device complies with FCC Rules Part 15. Operation is
subject to two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference that
may be received or that may cause undesired operation.
WARNING!
Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This device complies with the essential requirements and
provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC of the European Parliament and
of the Council of 9 March 1999 on radio and telecommunications
terminal equipment.

WARRANTY
Visonic Ltd. and/or its subsidiaries and its affiliates ("the Manufacturer") warrants its
products hereinafter referred to as "the Product" or "Products" to be in conformance with
its own plans and specifications and to be free of defects in materials and workmanship
under normal use and service for a period of twelve months from the date of shipment by
the Manufacturer. The Manufacturer's obligations shall be limited within the warranty
period, at its option, to repair or replace the product or any part thereof. The Manufacturer
shall not be responsible for dismantling and/or reinstallation charges. To exercise the
warranty the product must be returned to the Manufacturer freight prepaid and insured.
This warranty does not apply in the following cases:
improper installation, misuse,

tampering, and repair by anyone other than the Manufacturer.
This warranty is exclusive and expressly in lieu of all other warranties, obligations or
liabilities, whether written, oral, express or implied, including any warranty of
merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, or otherwise. In no case shall the
Manufacturer be liable to anyone for any consequential or incidental damages for breach
of this warranty or any other warranties whatsoever, as aforesaid.
This warranty shall not be modified, varied or extended, and the Manufacturer does not
authorize any person to act on its behalf in the modification, variation or extension of this

attachments of others used in conjunction with the Product, including batteries, shall be
covered solely by their own warranty, if any. The Manufacturer shall not be liable for any
damage or loss whatsoever, whether directly, indirectly, incidentally, consequentially or

circumvented, or that the Product will prevent any death, personal and/or bodily injury
and/or damage to property resulting from burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise, or that the
Product will in all cases provide adequate warning or protection. User understands that a
properly installed and maintained alarm may only reduce the risk of events such as
burglary, robbery, and fire without warning, but it is not insurance or a guarantee that such
will not occur or that there will be no death, personal damage and/or damage to property
as a result.
The Manufacturer shall have no liability for any death, personal and/or bodily injury

complete and exclusive remedy against the Manufacturer.
Warning:
The user should follow the installation and operation instructions and among
other things test the Product and the whole system at least once a week. For various
reasons, including, but not limited to, changes in environmental conditions, electric or
electronic disruptions and tampering, the Product may not perform as expected. The user
is advised to take all necessary precautions for his/her safety and the protection of his/her
property.
