To the InstallerR
Thank you for choosing CommBox Room
Movement Sensor (RMS)
The RMS uses passive infra-red technology
to detect movement in a room. It is
intended to be used with the CommBox
range of control systems to automatically
shut down equipment in the room after a
period of time when no movement is
detected, so saving energy and
maximising projector lamp life.
Before commencing installation, please
read these instructions carefully to get the
best results from your RMS.
For your safety
Please ensure that any wiring used to
connect RMS to other equipment is kept
clear of mains wiring and follows
applicable local wiring codes. Under no
circumstances may an RMS be connected
directly to power mains wiring.
Make sure that the power supply you are
using meets your local safety regulations
and that its voltage does not exceed 15
volts DC. Unregulated power supplies can
output voltages that are well above what is
shown on their label.
The RMS is intended for indoor use only.
Mounting
Choose a location on a wall that is
preferably 3 to 4 metres from the floor, not
adjacent to heating or air conditioning
outlets or opposite windows and where
people moving in the room can be “seen”
by the RMS.
Remove the cover by placing a small flatbladed screwdriver in the bottom of the
case and gently prise the cover off.
DO NOT TOUCH THE PYRO SENSOR
INSIDE WITH YOUR FINGERS!
You may remove the circuit board to
facilitate mounting the base to the wall. To
do this, lift the white plastic tab at the
lower side and push the board up until it
clears the keyhole slot at the top. At this
point the board may be lifted out of the
base.
When replacing the board, to achieve
optimum coverage, adjust the position of
the board in the base to match the height
of the RMS above the floor. Moving the
board higher will lower the beam angle.
Please refer to the Mounting Height scale
on the right-hand side of the board.
After wiring, refit the cover with its lens.
The cover must be in place in order to test
the RMS.

Option Links
For the purpose of detecting room
occupancy, we are not as concerned
about false alarms as we would be if
this were a security system. In fact,
not detecting room movement (when
people are in the room) would be more
of a problem.
For this reason, Long Range and
Short Pulse Count links should be
fitted. Similarly, having the LED
activate is a benefit.
So for our application, fit all 3 links.
Testing
With the cover fitted, apply power and
wait at least 30 seconds. After this time, if
there is no movement, the LED should go
out. Once this has happened, any
movement should cause a couple of rapid
flickers and the LED should lock on for
about 5 seconds.
Walk around the room and check that your
movement can be reliably detected. If
range seems to be inadequate, check the
position of the PCB in the base. A higher
position lowers the angle of the detection
beam.
Programming your control panel
to recognise the RMS and perform
actions
In CommBox Control System editor, select
Device Options under the Handset menu.
The Inactivity Timeout option allows you to
choose the number of minutes after either
the last key is pressed or the RMS sensor
detects movement. When that time expires
with no movement detected or key pressed,
the actions you choose under Edit Actions will
occur.
After you have selected the time, click Edit
Actions. You can treat this just like the
programming of any other key.
