The sounder in the container sensor has two functions: tone and beep.
Tone: When a battery is installed and the container sensor door is
opened and/or the sensor is not mounted, the device is in
Test Mode. This creates a long audible tone when vibration
is sensed. To test on a container, mount the device, then
listen for the tone as vibration is created. If the false alarm
filter* is in place, multiple vibrations may be required to
create the tone.
Quick Beep: The sounder will indicate a beeping noise as the
sensitivity is increased (less vibration is required) or
decreased (stronger and multiple vibrations are required).
When the maximum and minimum are reached the sensor
will beep three times. Refer to the Sensitivity Chart below
for descriptions.
* False Alarm Filter assists in blocking out false alarms associated with thunder claps, accidental bumping, objects
falling on the container, etc., by requiring multiple or continuous vibrations as typical with drilling out a lock or
directly cutting the container.
VIBRATION TESTING (SENSITIVITY SETTINGS)
Use the up and down arrows (D) to adjust the sensitivity as appropriate for the type of container being secured.
There are 8 sensitivity settings. The Container Sensor is preset at setting 4 when shipped. See the Sensitivity
Chart for a description of each setting. Create vibrations on the container. If the false alarm filter is in place, multiple
vibrations may be required to create the tone. Decrease sensitivity if false alarms continually occur.
WALK TEST (COMMUNICATION TO BASE UNIT)
Read the DS100 instruction manual for step-by-step walk test instructions. To activate the Container Sensor
walk test, create vibration on the container with the sensor door closed. If the false alarm filter is in place, multiple
vibrations may be required to complete the test. The Base Unit will indicate that the test was successful when
the device is removed from the list on the LCD screen.
HOW IT WORKS
When the Container Sensor door is closed and the sensor is mounted:
1. The sensor alerts the base unit that vibration has occurred (no tone will sound). If the Base Unit is armed, an
alarm signal will be sent.
2. The sensor will enter sleep mode for 3 minutes after it senses vibration. The sleep mode was designed to
conserve battery life. This 3-minute delay will restart each time a vibration is sensed.
NOTE: No tone will sound if the container sensor door is opened during the 3 minutes.
3. To "wake up" the sensor, press the RESET button.

* False Alarm Filter assists in blocking out false alarms associated with thunder claps, accidental bumping,
objects falling on the container, etc.
IMPORTANT NOTE: When testing sensitivity, test for both the strength of the vibration and the number of times
the vibration occurs. The false alarm filter may require several vibrations to trip the sensor.
