MX-862 Installation Instructions
Introduction
The MX-862 is an addressable smart ceiling PIR
detector. It creates a 360° coverage area to detect the
movement of intruders in indoor areas.
The detector has the following features.
Tamper protection.
l
False alarm prevention via The Advanced True
l
Motion Recognition™ algorithm
Note: For UL installations, the detector is for use with
UL listed control units only.

Installation guidelines
Consider the following guide when you choose a
suitable mounting location.
Figure 3: Device mounting hazards
1.
Keep away from heat sources.
2.
Do not expose to air drafts.
3.
Do not install outdoors.
4.
Avoid direct sunshine.
5.
Do not install near high voltage electrical lines.
6.
Do not install behind partitions.
7.
Do not mount on a moveable or unstable surface.
Notes:
Only qualified service persons can install the
l
device.
Do not partially or completely obscure the device's
l
field of view.
Do not install the MX-862 addressable ceiling
l
PIR detector in the following locations:
Hazardous areas.
l
Areas with a pollution degree higher than
l
pollution degree 2.
Circuits above overvoltage category II.
l
Install the MX-862 according to the Standard for
l
Installation and Classification of Residential Burglar
Alarm Systems, UL 1641.
Mounting and wiring the device
1.
Use the holes in the mounting bracket to mark and
drill three holes in the mounting surface. See Figure
4.
2.
Fasten the bracket to the mounting surface with
screws.
3.
Wire the device.
a.
Remove the jacket at the end of both cables to
expose the jacketed wires. To expose the
wires, remove the insulation at the end of each
wire. See Figure 5.
b.
Feed the wires through one of the pairs of
openings on the mounting bracket.
See Figure 6.
c.
For each cable, insert one wire in the positive
terminal loop that is marked L+ and the other
wire in the negative terminal loop that is
marked L-. See Figure 7.
d.
Screw both terminals closed with a flat-head
screwdriver. See Figure 8..
4.
Align the bracket tabs with the device slots and
rotate the device clockwise. Verify that it is
securely attached. See 1 and 2 in Figure 9.
5.
Fasten the device to the bracket with a screw. See
step 3 in Figure 9.

Note: 
UL/ULC verified detection only at 3.35 m (11 ft) radius
when the device is installed at 2.75 m (9 ft) height.
* For UL installations the maximum mounting height is
2.75 m (9 ft).
Walk testing
Perform a walk test of the coverage area at least once
a week to ensure that the device is working correctly.
1.
Set the alarm control panel to test mode to switch
the device to walk test mode.
2.
Walk test the coverage area by walking across the
far end of the coverage pattern in both directions.
The LED lights red each time it detects motion.
The device switches to normal mode when test mode
is disabled on the panel.
Note:
For detailed Placement instructions refer to the
l
control panel reference manual.
