Walk Testing

Walk testing should be done to determine the actual
coverage area of the sensor. The edge of the coverage
pattern is determined by the first LED flash. This may
change slightly depending on the sensitivity setting. Walk
test the unit from both directions to determine the pattern
boundaries.
1.
Remove the sensor cover to activate the tamper switch
and then reattach it to activate the 2-minute walk test
mode.
2.
Walk across the coverage pattern to determine the
coverage area, indicated by LED activation.
After 2 minutes, the walk test mode and the LED will no
longer activate when motion is detected.
Note: Excessive use of the walk test mode may reduce
battery life. Use only for initial setup and maintenance
testing.
Note: In normal operation mode, the sensor only transmits
an alarm signal 135 seconds after the previous alarm.
This reduces unnecessary RF transmissions in high
traffic areas, thereby extending battery life.

Environment Testing

Activate the walk test mode and then turn on all heating or
air conditioning sources which would normally be active
during the protection period. Stand away from the sensor
and outside the coverage pattern and watch for alarms.

Installing Masks

After determining the full coverage area and performing the
environment test, you may need or want to mask (block)
certain parts of the coverage.

Self-Adhesive Masks

Block the appropriate mirror sections with these masks.
Figure 8 shows an example of where to apply the masks and
the resulting coverage area.
Caution: To avoid damaging the mirror, do not remove
masks using a sharp tool. If necessary, remove
masks by carefully peeling them off with your
fingers.

Plastic Masks

Install these masks for half coverage or narrow coverage
applications (see Figure 9).

Installing Plastic Masks
Note: After installing masks, always conduct a walk test and
environment test to verify the coverage area is correct
for the application.
