NEXT PG2, NEXT-K9 PG2

Wireless, PowerG, Digital PIR / Pet Immune PIR Detectors

1. INTRODUCTION

The Next PG2 and Next-K9 PG2 are 2-way, microprocessor­controlled, wireless digital PIR detectors.

The detectors features are as follows:

• Combined Fresnel and cylindrical optics, up to 15 meters (49 ft).

• The Next PG2 includes wall creep zone protection.

• In Next PG2 and Next-K9 PG2, Target Specific Imaging™

(TSI) technology is used for distinction between human beings
and pets weighing up to 38 kg (85lb).

• Includes a fully supervised PowerG transceiver.

• The advanced True Motion Recognition™ algorithm (patented)

allows distinguishing between the true motion of an intruder and
any other disturbances which may cause false alarms.

• Sophisticated frequency domain digital signal processing.

• No vertical adjustment is needed.

• Motion event counter determines

whether 1 or 2 consecutive motion
events will trigger an alarm.

• Automatic termination of walk-test
after 15 minutes.

• Microprocessor-controlled temperature
compensation.

• Sealed chamber protects the optical
system.

• Front cover and back tamper switches,
for improved tamper protection.

• White light protection.

Here you determine whether or not the alarm LED indication will be activated.

Select between "LED ON" and "LED OFF".

Here you determine whether an alarm will be activated upon continued motion (low
sensitivity) or upon a single alarm event (high sensitivity).

Select between "LOW sensitive" and "HIGH sensitive".

Here you set the activity time during disarm.

Select between "NOT Active", "YES – no delay", "YES + 5s delay", "YES + 15s
delay", "YES + 30s delay", "YES + 1m delay", "YES + 2m delay", "YES + 5m delay",

A. Separate the base from the cover (see Fig. 5).
B. Put back the cover to return the tamper switch to its normal

(undisturbed) position, and then secure the front cover to the
base with the case closure screw.

C. Walk-test the coverage area - see Fig. 2. Walk across the far

end of coverage pattern in both directions, The red LED lights
each time your motion is detected followed by 3 LED blinks.

The following table indicates received signal strength
indication.

LED response Reception

Green LED blinks Strong

Orange LED blinks Good

Red LED blinks Poor

No blinks No communication

IMPORTANT! Reliable
reception must be assured.
Therefore, "poor" signal
strength is not acceptable. If
you receive a "poor" signal from
the detector, re-locate it and re­test until a "good" or "strong"
signal strength is received.

Figure 4. General Guidelines

Important! The Next-K9 PG2 detector is immune to 38 kg (85
lb) animals moving on the floor or climbing on furniture as long
as the activity takes place below 1 m (3 ft). Above the 1 m (3 ft)
height limit, the detector is immune to 19 kg (42 lb) pets, but
the pet immunity will decrease as the pet gets closer to the
detector. It is therefore recommended to select a mounting
location that minimizes potential close proximity of animals.

5. Keep wiring away from
power cables.

6. Do not install behind
partitions.

7. Mount on solid stable
surface.

7. SPECIAL COMMENTS

Even the most sophisticated detectors can sometimes be defeated
or may fail to warn due to: DC power failure / improper connection,
malicious masking of the lens, tampering with the optical system,
decreased sensitivity in ambient temperatures close to that of the
human body and unexpected failure of a component part.

The above list includes the most common reasons for failure to
detect intrusion, but is by no means comprehensive. It is therefore
recommended that the detector and the entire alarm system be
checked weekly, to ensure proper performance.
