SAFETY

Always follow the manufacturers advice when
using power tools; steps, ladders etc. and wear
suitable protective equipment (e.g. safety
goggles) when drilling holes etc.

Before drilling holes in walls, check for hidden
cables and pipes, the use of a cable/pipe
locater may be advisable if in doubt.

The use of ear protection is advisable when
working in close proximity to the Siren due to
the high sound level produced by this device.

All components are suitable for mounting in dry
interior locations only.

INTRODUCTION

The Remote Control is used to ARM and
DISARM the system. The Remote Control
operates using Infra Red so it must be pointing
directly at the PIR Alarm Unit to function.

Passive Infra-Red (PIR) detectors are designed
to detect movement in an area by detecting
changes in infra-red radiation levels caused for
example when a person/animal moves within
the devices field of vision.

The system has 2 operating modes: ALARM
and CHIME. Chime Mode is a low security
feature that will produce a door-chime sound
when the alarm is triggered. In Alarm Mode the
device will produce a constant high volume
alarm sound when triggered.

POSITIONING THE PIR
ALARM UNIT

The recommended position for a PIR
Movement Detector is in the corner of a room
mounted at a height of approx. 2m. At this
height, the detector will have a range of up to
6m with a field of view of 110°.

When considering and deciding upon the
mounting position for the detector the following
points should be considered:

1) Where possible, mount the detector in the
corner of the room where the logical path
of an intruder would be across the device.
PIR detectors respond more effectively to
movement across the device than to
movement directly towards it

2) Do not position the unit facing a window or
where it is in direct sunlight. PIR Detectors
are not suitable for use in conservatories.

isolation tab from between the batteries. If
the batteries are dislodged replace them
noting the correct polarity shown inside the
battery compartment.

5) Replace the battery compartment cover.
