1. INTRODUCTION

The TOWER-30AM PG2 and TOWER-30AM K9-90 PG2 (pet- immune) are 2-way, microprocessor-controlled,
wireless digital mirror PIR detectors which include the following features:

l For use with all PowerMaster® control panels(version 13 and higher).
l Adaptive Active Infra-Red Anti-Masking technology providing the most advanced reliable protection against

intentional masking attempts (patent pending)

l Includes a fullysupervised PowerG transceiver.
l Incorporates patent pending blackmirrors for extremely high white light immunity.
l Advanced elliptical / parabolicmirror technology (patented)
l V-slot® optictechnology (patented) for improved robustness,anti-vandalism and for very high r eliability.
l Creep zone protection
l TOWER-30AM K9-90 PG2 can distinguish between human beings and pets weighing up to 40 kg (90 lb).
l 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.

l Built-in link quality indicators; no need for the installer to physicallyapproach the control panel thus making

installation faster and easier.

l No vertical adjustment is needed.
l Motion event counter determines whether 1 or 2 consecutive motion events will trigger an alarm.
l Automatic termination of walk-test after 15 minutes.
l Microprocessor-controlled temperature compensation.
l Sealed chamber protects the optical system.
l Front and back tamper protection.
l Self-test

Notes:

1. The pet immunity and creep zone pr otection were not evaluated by UL.

2. For CE installations, the pet immunitywas not evaluated by DNV.

3. The pet immunity feature is not evaluated and certified by Applica Test & Certification AS.

2. INSTALLATION

2.1. General Guidance (see Fig. 2)

1. Keep away from heat sources.

2. Do not expose to air drafts.

3. Do not installoutdoors.

4. Avoid direct sunshine.

5. Keep wiring away from power cables.

6. Do not installbehind partitions.

7. Mount on solidstable surface.

l Installed in accordance with NEC, NFPA 70.
l Installed in accordance with UL 681, Standard for Installations and

Classifications of burglar and Holdup Alarm Systems.

l Installed in accordance with C22.1, Canadian ElectricalCode, Part

I, Safety Standard for Electrical Installations

Important! The detector is immune to 40 kg (90 lb) animals moving on the floor or climbing on furniture as long as the activitytakes
place below 1 m (3 ft). Above the 1 m ( 3 ft) height limit, the detector is immune to 9 kg (20 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 minimizespotential
close proximityof animals.

Warning! To comply with FCC and IC RF exposure compliance requirements, the PIR detector should be located at a distance of at least 20 cm
from all persons during normal operation. The antennas used for this pr oduct must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.

2.2. Mounting

Notes:

1. Mount the detector so that itsorientation is perpendicular to the expected intrusion path.

2. For installationsof detector at 2m high, Dead zone is2ft at 0m high and 0.5ft at 1.5m high.

1. On the indicated location, lift the screw cover upward using your
thumb.

3. Insert a screwdriver into the slot and then push inward to separate the base from the cover.

2. Release the screw and open the cover in the direction shown by the

arrow.

Note: For the desired detector's range and height, use mounting holes

or , as specified in the table.

a – upper surface (without downward tilt)
b – lower surface (with downward tilt)
