PIR/Microwave Intrusion Detector with Pet Immunity

Installation Instructions

1.0 Overview

The RF835E wireless detector uses passive infraRed (PIR) technology, microwave (MW) technology, and artificial intelligence to detect motion. The RF835E may be installed to provide immunity to false alarms caused by pets. Recommended limits are a dog up to 100 lbs. (45 kg), 2 dogs up to 60 lbs. (27 kg) combined weight, or up to 10 cats. An integral RF transmitter sends alarm, low battery, tamper and routine supervisory signals to the control panel.

2.0 Specifications

General

• Dimensions ( H x W x D): 5 in. x 2.8 in. x 2.5 in. (12.7 cm x 7.2 cm x 6.2 cm)

• Power supplied by four 1.5 V AA Alkaline batteries.

Recommended Batteries: Panasonic AM-3

Duracell MN1500 or PC1500 Energizer E91

• Typical current draw is 100 µA with the LED disabled. The LED is

automatically disabled except during walk tests.

• Typical battery life is two to three years.

• Operating temperature range of +32°F to +120°F (0°C to +49°C).

RF835E-C 10.588 GHz

• RF Transmit Frequency: 433 MHz

• Options: B335 Low Profile Swivel Mount Bracket (use of this bracket

may reduce range and dead zone areas).

• Patents: This product is covered by one or more of the following U.S.

Patents: #4,660,024, #4,764,755, #5,077,548, #5,208,567, #5,262,783, and #5,450,062. Other patents pending.

TriT ech Motion Sensor

• Coverage area 35 ft. by 35 ft. (10.7 m by 10.7 m).

• Internal coverage pointability -4° to -10° Vertical and ±10° Horizontal.

• Field selectable sensitivity options of Standard and the more sensitive setting of Intermediate.

• Three minute transmitter lockout time after alarm extends battery life.

• Timed Walk Test Mode automatically disables LED after setup to extend battery life.

• Cover activated Tamper indication. Optional wall-activated Tamper is included.

RF Transmitter

• Integral RF transmitter capable of transmitting up to 500 ft. (150 m) in open air. (Actual acceptable transmitter range should be verified for each installation). In normal operation, it is recommended that the RF835 be within 100 ft. (30 m) of the receiver.

• Transmits low battery reports and tamper reports to the control panel.

• Transmits supervisory signal to the control panel every 13 minutes.

3.0 Installation

3.1 Select a mounting location. Mount

the sensor where an intruder will most likely cross through the coverage pattern.

3.4 Observe the Pet Immunity mounting recommendations. 3.5

During the warm-up period, the tricolor LED will flash red until the unit has stabilized (approximately 5 minutes). When the LED stops flashing, the detector is ready to be walk tested.

If the Wall Tamper is desired, gently press the Spring onto the tapered shaft. Do not force it down onto the shaft. As you place the unit onto its

base, be sure the spring extends through the knockout to the wall.

3.11 Walk test the detector. Perform this test at the time of installation and monthly thereafter. To ensure continual daily operation, the end user should be instructed to walk through the far end of the coverage pattern. This ensures an alarm output prior to arming the system.

Pattern Testing in Walk Test Mode

Watch for the yellow LED to indicate the edges of the microwave pattern. Adjust as necessary.

Removing and replacing the cover will start a 90 second Walk Test Mode. During this Test Mode, any activity in the sensor’s coverage pattern will cause a transmitted alarm and LED activation. Each alarm will also extend the Test Mode for an additional 90 seconds.
