EN1260 EchoStream® Passive Infrared Motion
Detector

Installation and Operation Manual - 05379D

Caution: When pressing the Reset button, make sure you don’t also touch the
frequency band selection pins. Touching the frequency band selection pins whil e
pressing the Reset button can inadvertently set the EN1260 to the wrong frequency
band.

1 Overview

The EN1260 is a low-current motion detector highly sensitive to moving heat (infrar ed
radiation) sources. It features increased immunity to radio frequency interference,
vibration, static, lightning, ambient temperature changes, and other common causes
of false alarms.
The EN1260 includes a range of features, including a wall tamper capability for
increased security, and a fixed or variable sleep time option for normal or high-traffic
applications.

Caution: The EN1260 needs one minute for stabilization afte r power up. During the
stabilization period, the LED will blink twice per second, and the EN1260 will not be
operational.

2.3 Select PIR Sensitivity

The pulse count jumper setting provides control for normal or difficult operating
environments. Automatic pulse count is recommended for reliable operation in
environments subject to temperature fluctuations that may cause false alarms. The
single pulse count mode is more sensitive to minor temperatur e variations, and shou ld
be used in sites where variant heat sources will not cause false alarms. Automatic
pulse count is the factory default because it allows more reliable operation in
environments subject to temperature fluctation. To select PIR sensitivity:

1. Place a selection jumper on the appropriate pulse count selection pins.

• Place the jumper on the left two pins to select automatic pulse count.

• Place the jumper on the right two pins to select single pulse count.

2. Press the Reset button to complete configuration.

2.4 Select Fixed/Variable Sleep Time

The sleep time jumper setting provides control for normal or high-traffic operating
environments. When set to fixed, if the EN1260 senses motion, it will transmit an
alarm, then enter sleep mode for 180 seconds; if motion is sensed when the sleep
time has expired, the EN1260 will transmit another alarm. Fixed sleep time is
recommended for normal operating environments. When set to variable, if the
EN1260 senses motion, it will transmit an alarm, then enter sleep mode for 180
seconds; if motion is sensed before the sleep time has expired, the EN1260 will restart
the 180 second interval. Variable sleep time is recommended for high-traf fic oper ating
environments.

1. Place a selection jumper on the appropriate sleep time selection pins.

• Place the jumper on the left two pins to select fixed sleep time.

• Place the jumper on the right two pins to select variable sleep time.

2. Install the battery.

3. Press the Reset button.

2.5 Register the Transmitter

The EN1260 must be registered with the system receiver in order to be monitored and
supervised. Each EN1260 has a unique factory-programmed identification number.
Refer to the receiver, network coordinator or control panel installation instructions for
details on registering a transmitter.

1. When prompted reset the EN1260, press the EN1260 Reset button.

2. Replace the EN1260 cover.
Caution: The EN1260 should be tested after registration to ensure operation. To test

the EN1260, activate each of the conditions and ensure an appropriate response.

2 Installation and Startup

2.1 Install/Replace Battery

To install the battery:

1. Use a small Phillips screwdriver to remove the screw at the bottom of the EN1260
housing; separate the housing.

2. Install/replace the battery.

3. Press the Reset button to initialize the transmitter.

2.2 Select Frequency Band

EchoStream products are able to use a range of radio frequencies, and must be
configured for your geographic area. To configure the EN1260:

1. Place a selection jumper on the appropriate frequency band selection pins (Fig.

1).

• Place the jumper on the left two pins to select 915-928 MHz for Australia.

• Place the jumper on the right two pins to select 921-928 MHz for New Zealand.

• Leave the jumper off the pins to select 902-928 MHz for North America.

2. Press the Reset button.

Note: The EN1260 retains programming data in non-volatile memory. It does not

require re-programming after loss of power.

2.6 Mount the Transmitter

Mount the transmitter.

1. Remove the EN1260 printed circuit board from the housing.

2. Use the included hardware to mount the EN1260 housing back plate to the

mounting surface.
a. If using the wall tamper function for increased security, mount the housing back
plate per Figure 2, ensuring the tamper switch is depressed..

3 Test the EN1260

3.1 Perform a Walk Test

The walk test is performed to test the PIR, ensuring motion is sensed. To perform a
walk test:

1. Hold the magnet to the reed switch for less than one quarter of a second, The
LED will light three times to indicate the three-minute walk test has been
activated.

Note: To activate the walk test, the magnet shouldn’t remain near the reed switch for
more than one-quarter of a second.

2. Walk in front of the PIR to test the sensor. The LED will light every time the PIR
senses motion.

3. The unit will not transmit alarm signals during the three minute test period. When
the walk test ends, the LED will light six times.

3.2 Perform Transmission Test

1. Hold the magnet to the reed switch for more than four seconds. The LED will light

three times to indicate the transmission test has been acti vated.

2. The unit will transmit alarm and restoral cycles at regular intervals for
approximately one minute. The LED will light every time the unit transmits. Ensure
transmissions are received by your network coordinator, receiver or control panel.

4 Operation

The EN1260 transmitter signals an alarm condition when motion is detected by the
sensor.
