Introduction

The Motion Sensor is designed to be used indoors or
out. When mounted properly it can monitor large or
open areas such as entrances, living rooms, family
rooms, driveways, backyards, walkways, workshops,
etc. When the Sensor detects motion, it will transmit
a signal to the Control Center. The Zone selection and
settings on the Control Center determine if an alarm or
an alert sounds.

Preparing the Motion Sensor for Installation

The Motion Sensor consists of 2 parts – The Sensor
(Transmitter) and the wall mount. Before installing,
remove the screw from the battery door on the back
of the Sensor. You’ll need to attach the battery leads
to a “9V” battery (not included); Take care to note the
polarity markings. Replace the battery cover and

secure screw. An Alkaline “9V” battery in the Motion
Sensor can last up to 9 months,

Before mounting the Motion sensor, you’ll need to
assign the Sensor to a zone on the Control Center.

Follow these steps to assign a Sensor to a Zone.

Step 1 – Press and hold the Learn button on the
Control Center for three seconds. After the
Control Center sounds a long beep, release the
Learn button.

Step 2 – Press the Zone button (1, 2, 3 or 4) for the
Zone you want to assign to the Motion Sensor.
The LED indicator for that Zone will begin to flash.

Step 3 – Release the Zone button.

Note: Zone 4 is for dedicated alerts only. Sensors in this Zone
will not trigger an alarm or chime.

Step 4 – Activate the Motion Sensor
