WIRELESS PIR MOTION DETECTOR 433 MHz Installation Instructions RF-PIR-433-D-NN Introduction A motion sensor (passive-infrared or PIR) detects movement within a specific area by sensing the infrared energy emitted from a body as it moves across the sensors field of view. When this motion is detected, the sensor transmits an alarm signal to the control panel. Use a motion sensor to protect locations where door/window sensors are impractical or not needed. For example, use a motion sensor to protect large areas or open floor plans. Motion sensors also provide backup protection for door/window sensors. The sensor features a 3 minute lockout of alarm signals. When an alarm occurs, no additional alarm signals are sent for the next 3 minutes. This is to increase battery life in high traffic areas. The following installation guidelines must be met to provide false alarm immunity. The sensor must be mounted on a wall surface or incline mounted in a corner at a mounting height of 7.5 feet (2.3 m) The sensitivity switch must be set to Low. Room temperature must be kept between 60 and 120 F
(16 and 49 C). Do not aim the sensor at windows, fireplaces, air conditioners, area heaters, forced air heating vents, or place it in direct sunlight. Windows should be closed in any area which has an armed motion sensor. Position the sensor to protect an area where an intruder would be most likely to walk across the detection pattern. Mount the motion sensor on a rigid surface which is free from vibrations. Mount the sensor permanently on a flat wall or in a corner. Do not set it on a shelf. Mount the motion sensor on an insulated, outside wall facing in. Position the sensor so it faces a solid reference point, like a wall. If possible, locate sensors within 100 feet (30.5 m) of the panel. While a transmitter may have a range of 500 feet
(152 m) or more out in the open, the environment at the installation site can have a significant effect on transmitter range. Sometimes a change in sensor location can help overcome adverse wireless conditions. Do not mount the sensor near duct work or other large metallic surfaces which may affect the RF signals (see Final Testing on page 2). Actual acceptable transmitter range should be verified for each installation. Mounting Location A. Wall mounting:
1. Sensor base fastened flat on vertical wall ( 2 degrees). 2. Height = 7.5-9.8 (2.3m or 3m) above floor of monitored area. 3. Clear line-of-sight from sensor to monitored area Note: glass will block sensors view. 4. Sensor aimed away from windows and reflected sunlight. 5. Sensor aimed away from heaters or heater/cooler outlets. 6. Sensor aimed so that likely intruder paths cross three views.

Place (2) CR123 batteries in the battery holder. Be sure that the (+) is in the correct position. Sensitivity setting:
With low sensitivity, detection occurs in 3 to 5 steps. With high sensitivity, detection occurs in 2 to 4 steps. Note: Sensitivity jumper (J1) is only checked on power-up Programming For complete programming information, refer to the specific control panel documentation. To add the sensor to panel memory:
1. Place the panel in program mode. 2. Proceed to the section in programming for enrolling wireless sensors. 3. When the panel prompts enter the senor ID# or trip the sensors tamper, to trip the tamper remove the motions cover. 4. Exit Program Mode. Testing Walk testing:
The sensor enters Walk Test Mode for 60 seconds after power-up. This mode disables the 3 minute lockout of alarm signals. Each alarm resets the 60 second timer. The yellow LED will light solid during Walk Test Mode. 2 Place /Enable jumper for the LED (J3 in its "LED" position). Walk across the monitored area (within the sensor's optical fields-of-view). The LED should turn ON (for Alarm) after about two to four normal steps. Each time the LED turns ON, wait for it to turn OFF. Then, wait 12 seconds before continuing the walk-test. When there is no motion in the monitored area, the LED should remain OFF. Walk testing should be done to determine the sensors actual coverage area. The edge of the coverage pattern is determined by the LED. This may change slightly depending upon the sensitivity setting. Walk test the unit from both directions to determine the pattern boundaries. Caution: Excessive use of the walk test mode LED may reduce battery life. Use only for initial setup and maintenance testing. Replacing the Batteries Battery life depends on how often the detector transmits signals, but is more dependent on the temperature of the installation environment. When the battery voltage gets low, the detector transmits a low battery signal to the panel. The yellow LED will flash once every 10 seconds to denote low battery. The panel then activates trouble beeps to notify the customer that the detector battery must be replaced. Pressing the status button identifies the sensor with the low battery. Replace the battery immediately when this condition occurs, using the following battery: (2) Panasonic CR123A 3V Battery Disposal The batteries used in this sensor are lithium batteries and are not reusable.
