Re-align the beams using a volt meter to insure proper
monitor jack output voltage. Does the value satisfy the
beams requirement?
NO
Is the LED indicator on the transmitter on?
There is frost or snow on the unit's cover.
Very heavy rain occured at the same time as the activation.
There are plants, trees or debris that may block the beam
during windy conditions.
The unit may be detecting a large bird.
The units may be detecting small animals.
(dog, cat, deer etc...)
The receiver is facing directly at the rising or setting sun.
There are reflective objects within 1 m (3 feet) of beam
path. (cars, glass, surfaces with high gloss paints etc.)
Bad wiring or corroded splices. Check for shorts, opens,
grounds and high resistance on the alarm circuit wires.
The covers are very dirty or dusty.
The majority of false activations can be attributed to poor beam alignment.
When aligning the outdoor beams, accept the value of no less than
the "EXCELLENT" value for the most stable and trouble free system.
Refer to the Installation Instructions for acceptable monitor jack voltage values.

Use the HU-2 heater unit.
Turn the beam's interruption time adjustment clockwise
one graduation.
Cut off branches, new grass or secure debris to avoid
unnecessary activation. Or move the beams.
Adjust the interruption time, change the mounting height
or move the beams to avoid perching birds within the
beam's path.
Adjust the interruption time, change the mounting height
or move the beams to avoid small animals crossing the
beam's path.
Move the beams to avoid the rising or setting sun or swap
the transmitter and the receiver locations. Call a technical
support for other options.
Remove the object causing the reflection,or move the
beams. Call a technical support for other options.
Check for shorts, opens, grounds and high resistance
values on the alarm circuit wires. If everthing looks to be
OK, call a technical support for further testing measures.
Clean covers both inside and outside using a dry soft cloth
or mild soap and water only. Do not use any oil or alcohol
based solvents to clean the covers, doing so will cloud or
etch the cover and reduce its efficiency.
