3.
Activate the Personal Attack switch on the
Remote Control.
The Control Panel alarm will sound and all
Zone/Fire/Tamper LEDs will flash.
4.
Disarm the system by pressing the
button on the Remote Control.
The Control Panel alarm will stop. The LEDs will
continue to flash.
5.
Press
on the Control Panel to return to
ESC
Standby and cancel any warning LEDs.
6.
Test the range of the Remote Control by
pressing the
Control from in and around the property and
from all locations where you plan to install
detectors. Check that the Control Panel
acknowledges the signal from the Remote
Control by beeping twice each time the
button is pressed.
PASSIVE INFRA-RED (PIR)
MOVEMENT DETECTORS
PIR Detectors detect movement in a protected area
by detecting changes in infra-red radiation levels
caused for example when a person moves within or
across the PIR's detection pattern. If movement is
detected an alarm will be triggered, (if the system is
armed). PIR Detectors will also detect animals, so
ensure that pets are not permitted access to areas
fitted with PIR Detectors when the system is armed.
The Detector incorporates an anti-tamper protection
feature to protect against attempts to interfere with
the device. If the battery cover is removed, an
alarm will immediately occur at any time, (unless
the system is in Program or Test Modes).
The PIR Detector also incorporates a sensitivity
adjustment feature to compensate for situations
where the detector may be triggered by
environmental changes, (e.g. air temperature, etc).
To conserve power and maximise battery life the
PIR Detector will only detect movement if there
has been no movement detected within the
previous 2 minutes, (this is known as the detectors
sleep period).

The PIR Detector is powered by a 9V PP3 Alkaline
battery which under normal conditions will have an
expected life of approximately 1 year. When the
battery level drops, with the PIR in normal operation
mode and the battery cover fitted, the LED behind
the detection window will flash. When this occurs
the battery should be replaced as soon as possible.
(Note: in normal operation, the LED behind the
lens will not flash on detection of movement).
Up to a maximum of 3 PIR Movement Detectors
and/or Door / Window Detectors per Zone can be
used with your system, providing they are all mounted
within effective radio range of the Siren.

POSITIONING THE PIR DETECTORS

The recommended position for a PIR Detector is in
the corner of a room mounted at a height between
2 and 2.5 metres. At this height, the detector will
have a maximum range of up to 12 metres with a
field of view of 110°.

Detector Range (metres)
When deciding upon the mounting position for the
detector the following points should be considered to
ensure trouble free operation:
1.
Do not position the Detector facing a window or
where it is exposed to or facing direct sunlight.
PIR Detectors are not suitable for use in
conservatories.
2.
Do not position the Detector where it is exposed
to draughts.
3.
Do not position the Detector directly above a
heat source, (e.g. fire, radiator, boiler, etc).
