    1.1 Opening the device The devices are supplied in the unlocked position. If locked. Use a flat bladed terminal driver and turn the locking mechanism ¼ turn anti-clockwise. Slide the front down and towards you to remove. For ceiling mount devices remove the facia by turning it anti- clockwise, and then unlock as above.

  • Page 8: Quick Installation

    1.0 Quick Installation 1.2 Mounting and cable entry Location Ensure you have the correct device for the intended application, and that it is sited correctly in the desired location. The field of view should be free from obstacles and any potential false alert causes. Devices should be mounted on stable internal surfaces and are NOT suitable for use externally.

  • Page 12 For internal use only Screws & Fixings A minimum of 2 opposing fixing holes should be used to ensure maximum stability. When corner mounting care should be taken to ensure the chassis is not twisted, if the corner is uneven then two fixings on the same side would be acceptable. Where removal from mounting detection is required you must ensure that the tamper fixing is opposite to at least one of the corner or wall fixings.

  • Page 18: Wiring, Teol Selection And Powering Up

    1.3 Wiring, TEOL selection and powering up The device allows you to wire to control equipment in several different ways. To aid wiring and inspections of cable termination the terminal block can be tilted forwards or removed entirely. TEOL wiring is considered the most secure. The detector is designed to be connected to a single zone on control panels which feature Triple End-Of-Line compatibility.

    RLED terminal The RLED (Remote LED) terminal can be used to control the LED for walk testing from the panel. To use the RLED feature put switch 1 in the up position which will disable the LED. When an output is triggered 0V is applied to the RLED terminal which will enable the LED.
  • Page 24 LOW all models Low mode lowers the sensitivity of the device and provides greater false alarm immunity. Thorough walk testing across the entire protected area should be carried out to ensure catch performance is as expected. NOTE: Low mode is not EN G3 compliant INS881EN-2 24/55...

  • Page 27 CloakWise™ CloakWise is a proprietary detection algorithm, unique to Texecom, that can distinguish the presence of an intruder even if the unauthorised person attempts to mask or ‘cloak’ their presence. Utilising advanced signal processing techniques to both microwave and PIR channels, the CloakWise technology can recognise cloaking attempts and detect accordingly.

    1.6 Testing, commissioning and LED indications Following initial power the device will take 180s to calibrate the anti- masking function. There should be no obstructions or movement in the field of view of the device whilst this calibration takes place. When installation is complete, the device should be thoroughly walk tested to ensure the desired volumetric protection is being achieved, and any adjustments to the device are made to cater for the specific location and any local site...
  • Page 33 detection area. Power up the device (allow 180s with no activity in the protected area to allow for anti-mask calibration.) Walk test the device taking note of the LED indications. Adjust the Microwave range until the desired coverage is achieved. (you will need to calibrate the anti-mask as described previously if you remove power from the device to make adjustments.)
