When positioning the detector try to ensure
that no obstacles, such as walls or large
trees for example, obstruct the beam pattern
view of the detector.
As the unit detects a change in heat in its
field of view, therefore sunshine, trees,
shrubs, ponds, washing, central heating
boiler flues and animals should be
considered.
If you are also fitting floodlights to provide
movement activated lighting, these should
be positioned at the side or above the
detector far enough away not to cause
problems due to heat detection. A minimum
of 60cm ( 2 feet ) is recommended, provided
the detector is not in direct radiated heat
from the floodlight.
The front cover must be fitted when in the
testing mode.
Once alignment is completed, replace the
front cover checking that the vent hole is at
the bottom. Ensure that the front cover
engages both sides of the outer casing
before pressing firmly to locate securely
IMPORTANT:
If mounting the detector on a conductive
or uneven surface it is advisable to use the
mounting spacer provided.
This will ensure that the aerial is above the
4mm clearance distance required from the
surface to optimise the transmission range.
