2. SPECIFICATIONS

OPTICAL

Detection Pattern: 90° wide angle lens with 19 quad zones in 3

detection

layers. Max. coverage is 15 x 15 m (50 x 50 ft).

Pet Alley: Plastic mask may be fitted internally, leaving only 9
quad zones in a single layer, with the same view angle and
coverage area as above.

Adjustment: 3-position vertical adjustment scale: PET, FAR,
NEAR.

3. INSTALLATION

3.1 Installation Hints

To minimize false alarms:

Do not aim at heat sources

Mount on solid, stable surfaces

Do not expose to air draughts

Do not install outdoors

Prevent direct sunlight from

reaching the detector

Keep wiring away from

electrical power cables

Do not install behind partitions

3.2 Mounting without Swivel Bracket

A. Remove the front cover as shown in Figure 3.

Figure 3. Cover Removal

B. Loosen the vertical adjustment screw, slide the PCB down

and remove it via the “keyhole” (see Figure 4).

Figure 4. PCB Removal

C. Pull the PCB straight out and put it aside until required

again.

D. Refer to Figure 5 and punch out the mounting knockouts

at the rear wall of the base (for surface mounting) or
mounting knockouts at the angled sides of the base (for
corner mounting).

Figure 5. Inside View

E. Punch out any one of the wiring knockouts shown in Figure 5.
F. Hold the base against the wall at the selected installation

location and mark the points for drilling.

G. Drill the holes and insert the plastic anchors supplied (if

necessary).

H. Pass the wires through the wiring inlets into the base and

attach the base to the wall using the screws supplied.

I. Return the PCB to its place: align the ”keyhole” with the head

of the vertical adjustment screw, press the PCB against the
base, slide the PCB up and temporarily tighten the screw.

J. Proceed to wire the terminal block as instructed in Para. 3.5.

3.3 Mounting with Swivel Bracket

A. Remove the front cover as shown in Figure 3.
B. Remove the PCB (see Figure 4) and put it temporarily aside.
C. Punch out the large knockout in the round bulge at the top

part of the base (see Figure 6)

Figure 6. Attaching the Bracket

D. Assemble the bracket as shown in Figure 6.
E. Rotate the bracket to the desired position (see Figure 7) but

do not yet tighten the screw fully.
