GENERAL INFORMATION
These passive infrared motion detectors are versatile wall-mounted units
employing Fresnel lenses and offering efficient protection patterns for
commercial and residential applications. Best coverage will be obtained if
mounting is selected such that the likely direction of intruder motion is
across the pattern.
When installed per the guidelines, the Split-Zone Optics technology in the
Aurora Series provides reasonable false alarm protection against pets and
other animals up to 40 lbs.

Figure 1. Protection Patterns
for Installations Containing Pets
To take full advantage of the pet immunity in the Aurora Series, the guide-
lines below should be followed:
Mount the center of the detector 7 ft (2.1m) high.
Set the PIR sensitivity for Standard (STD).
Mount where animals cannot come within six feet of the detector by
climbing on furniture, boxes, or other objects.
Do not aim the detector at stairways that can be climbed by animals.
Note: This unit will provide immunity to false alarms for an individual
animal or a group of animals whose total weight is equal to or less than
40 pounds when the room temperature is above 50°F (10°C).
INSTALLATION
For optimal pet immunity performance, be sure to follow all the guidelines
described in the section "Special Instructions for Installations Containing
Pets."
A. Normal Surface Mounting
Mount the unit to a firm vertical surface. The wall wiring hole should be no
more than 5/16" (8mm) in diameter.
1. Remove the front cover as shown in Figure 2.
2. Refer to Figure 3. Knockout holes "A" in the base are for normal sur-
face mounting on a wall (remove PC board for full access to holes).
