Range-Controlled Radar Detector

Models: RCR-A (Form A)

RCR-C (Form C)

Installation Instructions

Description

The RCR detector combines range-controlled radar (RCR)
technology with a passive infrared (PIR) system to increase
false alarm immunity by allowing it to sense human-sized
objects within a specified range. Both the RCR and PIR systems
must be triggered to set off an alarm, unless in Microwave
only mode.

The detector is designed to use a 12VDC power supply pro­vided by a UL Listed alarm control panel.

Features

The detector provides the following features:

· High-security mode - Internal jumper allows you to disable
the PIR, and use the RCR system only to detect intruders
faster. This mode can be used for covert installations
(mounted behind ceiling panels or walls).

· Selectable range up to 35 feet - Internal jumper allows
radar range selection to optimize coverage.

· LED indicator - A multi-color LED provides detector status.

· Tamper switch (RCR-C only) - Activated when the pins on

the circuit board are removed from the terminal sockets on
the base.

Parts

The following parts are included with the detector:

· RCR detector

· 1 screw to join the case halves

· 3 factory-installed jumpers

Selecting a Location for the Detector

The detector can be mounted in a corner or on a flat wall. Use
the following guidelines to determine the best location to install
the detector:

· Mount the detector so the expected movement of an intruder
is across the detection pattern. See Figure 2.

· Mount the detector on a stable surface 7 to 9 feet high.

· DO NOT mount the detector within 2 feet of any metallic

objects.

· DO NOT place any objects in front of the detector that may
prevent a clear line of sight. (Not applicable in RCR only
mode.)

· Avoid locations that expose the detector to possible false
alarm sources such as:

 Moving or vibrating objects (fans, pulleys, conveyor belts)

 Electronic fields (electric motors, high voltage equipment)

 Water spray or corrosive environments

 Heat sources in the field of view (heaters, radiators)

 Windows in the field of view

 Strong air drafts on the detector (fans, air conditioners)

· When installing multiple detectors:

 DO NOT mount detectors facing each other

 Use the 9-foot range when mounting detectors back to back

 Mount them at least 20 feet apart

 Use shorter range settings to avoid overlapping radar
coverage

Installing the Detector

All wiring must conform to National Electric Code (NEC) and/or
local codes having jurisdiction.

Important: DO NOT use this device for safety

interlock applications.

Use the following steps to install the detector:

1. Run the security system wiring to the detector location.

2. To remove the front cover/electronic module, press down on
the lever at the bottom of the unit and pull the cover off.
Remove the nameplate and loosen the screw if necessary. To
remove the nameplate, insert a small screwdriver into one of
the nameplate side slots and gently push in on the nameplate.
See Figure 1.

CAUTION! Use anti-static precautions when handling

the circuit board.

3. If necessary, set the jumpers on the circuit board. See Setting
the Jumpers.

4. Remove the appropriate wiring and mounting knockout holes
from the back cover. The detector can be mounted on a flat
wall or in a corner. See Figure 3.

5. Pull the wires through the knockout holes and use the two
screws provided to attach the base to the wall. Use screw
anchors if necessary.

6. Strip 1/4 inch of insulation from each wire.

RCR-C only

sockets

7. Run each wire through the strain relief and under the appro­priate screw terminals on the base and tighten the screws.
See Figure 3.

8. Line up the tabs on the bottom of the cover/electronic module
with the corresponding tabs on bottom of the base and snap
the cover/electronic module firmly down onto the base.

9. Tighten the screw and replace the nameplate. See Figure 1.

10. Apply power. The green LED should light for approximately
25 seconds and then go out.

11. Walk test the coverage pattern as follows:

 Walk throughout the intended coverage area.

 Verify the detector alarms. See Understanding the LED.

Note: Most units walk test more accurately if the person

testing waits 10 seconds between tripping the unit and
walking again. This allows the detector to stabilize between
trips.

Setting the Jumpers

The detector provides jumpers to select the detection range and
PIR and LED operation. See Figure 4.

J2 Range - Use the jumper to cover the center pin and the pin
indicating the desired range. No jumper = 27 feet and under.

Maintaining the Detector

When installed and used properly, the detector provides years of
service with minimal maintenance. You should walk test the
detector annually to ensure proper operation.

When the cover is removed, power is interrupted to the sensor.
Once the cover has been replaced, the green LED will illuminate
for 15 seconds while the sensor warms up. After the green LED
goes off, wait one minute and walk test the sensor.

Important: You need to set J2 as close to the intended

coverage range as possible. Overshooting the coverage
area may cause false alarms.

Understanding the LED

The multi-color LED located on the bottom of the detector
indicates the status of the unit as described in the following
table.
