Risco WatchU Quick Start Manual

Dual Technology Outdoor Detector

Introduction

RISCO Group's Dual Technology Outdoor detector, WatchU, is a unique detector with signal
processing based on two Passive Infrared (PIR) channels and two Microwave (MW) channels.

Mounting Considerations

Wall Mount Installation

Note:

The installation knockouts numbering are marked on the
back plate.

1. Open WatchU front cover
(unlock C1, Figure 1).

2. Release internal base (unlock I1, Figure 2).

3. Select mounting installation as follows:

Flat Mounting:

Open knockouts on external base (Figure 3).

 B1 - B4: Wall mounting knockouts
 T1: Back tamper knockout
 W2 / W3: wires entry knockouts

5m (16')

Keep distance of
minimum 5m (16')
from moving objects

the tamper from position 7.

2. Ensure tamper spring 2 rests over tamper wire

base 4.

3. Ensure plastic tamper bracket 3 rests over

both 2 and 4.

4. Secure tamper screw 1 into 3 over position 6.

Notes:

1. Verify that you hear a "Click" when attaching the tamper spring to the wall.

2. For pole installation, the tamper can be moved to the bottom right-hand side of the internal base.

Microwave Adjustment

Adjust Microwave coverage area by using the
trimmer on the PCB.

Walk test

Two minutes after applying power, walk test
the protected area to verify proper operation.
For installations on uneven surfaces slide the
PCB inside the internal base to the
appropriate setting according to the desired
height (1.0m, 1.5m, 2.2m, 2.7m) as printed on
the bottom left corner of the PCB.

Notes:

1. DIP-Switch 1 should be in ON position to enable LED indications.

2. Only one LED is active at any one time. For example, in the case of both PIR and MW detection, either the
steady YELLOW LED or the steady GREEN LED is displayed (the first to detect), followed by the Alarm RED
LED.

Steady Indicates PIR detection
Flashing Indicates AM (Anti mask) detection
Steady Indicates MW detection

Introduzione

Il rivelatore da esterno Doppia Tecnologia WatchU di RISCO Group è un dispositivo a
microprocessore che elabora i segnali rilevati tramite due canali all’infrarosso passivo (PIR) e due
canali a microonda (MW).

Considerazioni per l’installazione

[Vedi pagina 1]

Installazione a parete

[Vedi Figure 1-4, pagine 1-2]

Nota:

I numeri di riferimento dei fori a sfondare per
l’installazione sono marcati sulla base posteriore.

1. Aprire il coperchio frontale del WatchOUT.
(Svitare C1, figura 1).

2. Sganciare la base interna (svitare I1, fig. 2).

3. Selezionare l’altezza di installazione come

segue:

Installazione piana

Aprire i fori a sfondare della base esterna (fig. 3)

 B1 - B4: Fori a sfondare per installazione

a parete.

 T1: Foro a sfondare per il tamper

antirimozione

 W2 / W3: Fori a sfondare per il

passaggio cavi

Installazione angolare di 45°
(installazione a sinistra)

a. Aprire i fori a sfondare della base esterna

(fig. 3)

 L1, L2 : Fori a sfondare per lato

sinistro

 T3: Foro a sfondare per tamper lato

sinistro

b. W5 / W6: Fori a sfondare per passaggio

caviRimuovere la molla del tamper

c. Sostituire la staffa (Item 1) con l’altra

fornita (Item 2).

Item 1 Item 2

d. Inserire la leva B del tamper in T5 e T3 e

stringere la vite A (figura 3)

4. Inserire I cavi esterni attraverso la base
esterna W2, W3 (Installazione piana) o
W5,
W6 (Installazione a sinistra) (figura 3).

5. Fissare la base esterna alla parete.

6. Inserire i cavi esterni e i cavi del tamper

attraverso la base interna. (figura 4).

7. Fissare la base interna a quella esterna

(bloccare I1, figura 2).

8. Chiudere il coperchio frontale (bloccare

C1, figura 1) dopo aver cablato l’unità e
predisposto i microinterruttori.a.

Nota:

Per installazioni a 45° lato destro usare le equivalenti predisposizioni sulla base esterna come segue:
