SkyLink HA-318T Guide User Manual

In order for the sensor to communicate with the receiver properly, the
sensor’s code must match with the receiver’s code. Code connectors 1
to 6 can be found by opening the battery cover and the back cover of
the receiver. User is required to set these code connectors randomly
and the code settings on the sensor and receiver must be the same.
Each position of the code connector can be set to “+”, “-” or “0” position.
Refer to the diagram below to set the code connectors properly. If the
connector is placed on the top and middle posts, that column is set on
“ + ”. If the connector is placed on the middle and bottom posts, that
column is set on “ - ”. If the connector is removed completely, (not placed
on any posts), it is set to “ 0 ”. (see diagram for examples of how to set a
column to the three different positions).

Note: If you experience interference from a nearby system, which could
accidentally trigger your system, please change the code settings on the

still match after changing the code setting.

1. INTRODUCTION

Indoor/Outdoor

Motion Sensor

Model HA-318T

The Indoor/Outdoor Motion Sensor is designed to monitor movement
around your house. The motion sensor can be placed either indoor or
outdoor. Once motion is detected, the receiver will beep & flash.

In this package, you should find an Indoor/Outdoor Motion Sensor, ball­head joint, screws and a clip.

Please follow the instructions below to setup your Indoor/Outdoor
Motion Sensor.

2 pcs 3 x 18 screws
(Included)

Code Connectors on Motion Sensor

Each receiver can work with up to 4 different sensors (to represent 4
different zones on the receiver). There are 2 connectors that determine
the zone number 1, 2, 3 and 4. These 2 connectors can be found by
opening the battery cover. Please follow table 1 to set the zone.

2. ZONE CONNECTORS

After setting up all the connectors properly, the sensor is now ready to be
powered up.

1. POWER UP

Insert 9V alkaline battery to the sensor

The sensitivity of the motion sensor is adjustable. Change the setting by
placing the connector on either the ”High” or “Low” position. When the
sensitivity is set to “Low”, more movement is required to trigger the
sensor. It is recommended to set the sensitivity to “Low” and perform a
“Walk Test” (Described in Section 4 - “Walk Test”). If the walk test result
is satisfied, the sensitivity does not
require to be adjusted further. If the
walk test result shows the sensitivity
is too low, then you can change the
sensitivity setting to “High”. Please
perform the walk test after changing
the sensitivity setting.

2. SENSOR SENSITIVITY

Sensitivity Connectors on Motion Sensor

“+” in the table means the connector for that position should be placed on
the posts.
“-“ in the table means the connector for that position should be removed.

Zone connectors

A ball-head joint is necessary to mount the sensor at a desire location.
A height of 5-6 ft is recommended, depending on your application. Once
a location is selected, mount the ball-head joint to this location by screws
provided, (see diagram 1). Once the ball-head joint is mounted to the
wall, slide the back of the sensor into the ball-head joint (see diagram 2).
The mounting angle can be adjusted. Please refer to Section 4 “Walk
Test” to determine the best mounting angle.

3. MOUNTING

Diagram 1 Diagram 2

After mounting the sensor at the desired location, it is
important to perform a walk test in order to determine
if the sensor is detecting the things you want to detect.

In order to control how far the sensor can “see”, this can be done by
adjusting the angle of the sensor. To reduce the detection range, simply
move the sensor downward. To increase the range, move the sensor
up to around 12 degrees. This will give the maximum range. However,

this may not be desired if the sensor is placed outdoors, since a false
trigger may occur if the sensor is set to detect motion in a distance.

4. WALK TEST

3. POWER UP THE INDOOR/OUTDOOR MOTION SENSOR

Insert a 9V alkaline battery (not
included) to the motion sensor and its
LED will be on for 2 seconds. The
receiver will beep and red LED flash.
The sensor requires a warm up time
of approx. 45 seconds before it can
function properly. After powering up
the sensor, face it to the wall where
no motion will be detected. After 45
seconds, the sensor is ready. Wave
your hand in front of the sensor, the
receiver will beep and red LED will
flash for approx. 15 seconds.

You sh ould walk in the area that you would like the sensor to monitor. The
receiver will beep if the sensor detects your movement. If the receiver
does not respond, adjust the mounting angle accordingly. Perform the
walk test again after 30 seconds. Repeat this procedure until your motion
is detected. T here should be no movement in the detected area during the
30 seconds.

6. OTHER HOUSEHOLD ALERT ® SENSORS

The Household Alert® receiver can work with up to 4 different sensors:
garage door monitor sensors, door / window sensors, water sensors,
indoor/outdoor motion sensors, etc. Please visit www.skylinkhome.com
or contact us at [e-mail] for more information of how
to fully utilize your Indoor/Outdoor Motion Sensor.

8. W ARRANTY

If, within one year from date of purchase, this product should become defective
(except battery), due to faulty workmanship or materials, it will be repaired or
replaced, without charge. Proof of purchase and a Return Authorization are required.

Tips: The sensor should not face towards direct sunlight, placing near
heat or cold producing devices (i.e. A/C or furnance vents, fans, ovens,
heaters etc.) that may cause false triggers.

When motion is detected in the monitored area, the sensor will send a
signal to the receiver. It will beep and the corresponding zone red LED
will flash for 15 seconds.

If the sensor is set to zone 1, zone 1 red LED on the receiver will flash,
and the receiver will emit a continuous “single beep”, i.e. “beep” pause,
“beep”, pause….. etc.

If the sensor is set to zone 4, zone 4 red LED will flash, and the receiver
will emit a continuous “4 beeps”, i.e. “beep beep beep beep” pause
“beep beep beep beep” pause ……etc.

By the number of beeps emitted by the receiver, user can identify
which zone is triggered.

4. OPERATION

When the battery level on the sensor drops to a certain level, or the
sensor is out of the operating range, the receiver will show a “loss of
signal” indication. The red LED representing that zone will flash rapidly,
i.e. if zone 1 sensor is lost, the zone 1 red LED will flash rapidly.

When the loss of signal indication occurs, move the receiver closer to the
corresponding sensor and trigger that sensor. If the red LED stops flash­ing rapidly, that means the receiver or sensor needs to be relocated. If the
“loss of signal” indication persists, replace the battery of that sensor.
