PIR Motion Sensor
Introduction
IR models are ZigBee passive infrared motion sensors (PIR) with optional pet-immune function. It is capable of
sending wireless signals to the coordinator in the ZigBee network upon movement detection.
The PIR is designed to give a typical detection range of 12 meters when mounted at 2 meters above ground.
The pet immune model (IRP-9ZBSSL) has a pet-immune range of 7 meters and will not trigger fa lse alarm from
you household pets within this distance. The PIR also has tamper protections switch which will be activate upon
any attempt of unauthorized cover opening or removal from mounted surface.
The PIR utilizes ZigBee technology for wireless signal transmission. ZigBee is a wireless communication
protocol that is reliable and has low power consumption and high transmission efficiency. Based on the
IEEE802.15.4 standard, ZigBee allows a large amount of devices to be included in a network and coordin ated
for data exchange and signal transmission
The PIR serves as an end device in the ZigBee network. It can be inc luded in the ZigBee network to transmit
signal upon activation, but cannot permit any other ZigBee device to join the network through the PIR.
Parts Identification
1. Function Button aka LED indicator
The Function Button also doubles as the LED Indicator. The function button
is used to control the PIR. The LED indicator is used to indicate PIR status.
LED Indication:
The LED indicator lights up in the following conditions:
- Flashes twice quickly:
The PIR has successfully joined a ZigBee network after factory reset.
- Flashes once every 20 minutes:
The PIR has lost connection to its current ZigBee network.
- Flashes under normal operation
The PIR has detected a movement and it is currently under Low
Battery or Tamper open condition.
Function Button Usage:
- Press the button once to send a supervision signal and enter Test
Mode.
- Press and hold the button for 10 seconds then release to reset the PIR.
2. Battery Insulator
3. Battery Compartment
The PIR is powered by one 3V Lithium battery.
4. Tamper Switch
The Tamper switch will be activated when the PIR cover is
opened.
5. Sensitivity Increaser Jumper Switch (JP2)
- If the jumper is OFF (jumper link is removed or “parked” on one pin),
the PIR detection sensitivity is in normal level (Factory Default)
- If the jumper is ON (jumper link parked on 2 pins), the PIR’s detection
sensitivity is high.
Features

The PIR has a “sleep time” of approximately 30 seconds to conserve power. After transmitting a detected
movement, the PIR will not retransmit detection signal for the next 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, the PIR
will return to normal operation and begin transmitting detection signal again. This way continuous
movement in front of a PIR will not unduly exhaust the battery.

After each movement detection, if 30 second passes without another detection, the PIR will transmit a
“motion stop” signal to ZigBee network coordinator.

You can use the sensitivity increaser function to increase the PIR’s detection sensitivity. To increase
detection sensitivity, please enable the Jumper to OFF position. To maintain the normal detection
sensitivity, enable the Jumper to ON position (Factory Default).

The PIR uses one 3V Lithium battery as its power source. The battery is installed in the battery
compartment with a battery insulator inserted. To activate the battery, simply pull out the battery insulator.
The PIR feature Low Battery Detection function. When the battery voltage is low, the PIR will transmit Low
Battery signal to the coordinator in ZigBee network. If movement is detected under Lo w Battery condition,
the LED Indicator will flash to indicate.
If battery is not changed after Low Battery and is exhausted, the LED will flash every 2 seconds and the
PIR will stop all operation.
When changing battery, after removing the old battery, press the Tamper Switch t wice to fully discharge
before inserting new battery
TTaammppeerr PPrrootteeccttiioonn
The PIR is protected by a tamper switch which is compressed against the back cover when the cover is
closed. Whenever the PIR back cover is opened, the tamper switch will be activated and the PIR will send a
tamper open signal to remind the user of the condition. If movement is detected when the tamper switch is
open, the PIR will flash to indicate.
SSuuppeerrvviissiioonn
The PIR will transmit a supervision signal to report its condition regularly according to user setting. The
factory default interval is 30 minutes. The user can also press the Function Button once to transmit a
supervision signal manually.
TTeesstt MMooddee
Test mode is for you to check the PIR’s detection range.
To enter Test mode, press the Function button once enter the Test mode for 3 minutes.
During Test Mode, you can trigger PIR sensor to check its detection coverage. If PIR is triggered, the
LED will light up to indicate.
ZigBee Network Setup

ZigBee is a wireless communication protocol that is reliable and has low power consumption and high
transmission efficiency. Based on the IEEE8 02.15.4 standard, ZigBee allows a large amount of devices to
be included in a network and coordinated for data exchange and signal transmission.
Due to the fundamental structure of ZigBee network, ZigBee device will actively seek and join n etwork after
powering on. Since performing a task in connecting network may consume some power, it is required to
follow the instructions to avoid draining battery of a ZigBee device
- Ensure your ZigBee network router or coordinator is powered on before inserting battery into the ZigBee
device.
- Ensure the ZigBee network router or coordinator is powered on and within range while a ZigBee device is
in use.
- Do not remove a ZigBee device from the ZigBee network router or coordinator without removing the
battery from a ZigBee device.

As a ZigBee device, the PIR needs to join a ZigBee network to transmit signal when a movement is
detected. Please follow the steps bellow to join the PIR into the ZigBee network.
1. Pull out the battery insulator; this will connect the battery to power on the PIR.
2. Press and hold the F unction button for 10 seconds then rel ease to join the net work. Please make sure
the permit-join feature on the router or coordinator of your ZigBee network is enabled.
3. After joining the ZigBee network, the PIR will be registered in the security system in the network
automatically. Please check the security system control panel or CIE (Control and Indicating Equipment)
to confirm if joining and registration is successful.
4. After joining the ZigBee network, if the PIR loses connection to current ZigBee network, the LED
indicator will flash every 20 minutes. Please check the ZigBee network condition and PIR signal range
to correct the situation.

If the PIR did not successfully join a ZigBee network upon power up, or if you want to remove the PIR from
current network and join a new network, you need to use th e Factory Reset function to clear the PIR for its
stored setting and information first before it can join another network. To perform Factory Reset:
1. Press and hold the function button for 10 seconds, then release the button.
