Installation Do’s & Don’ts
Do
• Do ensure that the unit’s detection beams are
perpendicular to the anticipated movement
• Keep a minimum distance between adjoining
NVX80 detectors to prevent MW cross interference,
see the beam pattern diagram (see page 4)
• Do place the unit under a roof, or awning or use our
all-weather cover, during an outdoor installation
• Do install the detector within the suggested range:
installing the unit lower than 2.5 m / 8 ft 2 in may
compromise the Pet Immunity capability, installing
over 3.0 m / 9 ft 8 in may require use of our swivel
bracket adjusted downward shifting the Pet
Immunity beam and neutralizing the creep zone.
Installing the unit over 3.0 m / 10 ft does not affect
the creep zone.
Don’t
• Don’t direct the unit’s beams into swaying
trees or bushes
• Don’t place the detector facing direct sunlight or
near a heat source, as it might interfere with the
Active IR anti-mask feature
• Don’t place any objects, such as shelves, ledges or
plants, below the unit
• Don’t place any reflective objects within 2 m /
6 ft 6 in of the unit, as this may interfere with the
MW anti-mask capabilities
NVX80 Version 1.02
7
In order to maximize detection efficiency, choose a
location that is most likely to intercept intruders moving
across the coverage area at a 45 degree angle.
Mounting Considerations
The optimal installation height for the NVX80 is
2.5 m to 3.0 m (8 ft 2 in to 10 ft).
2.5 m - 3.0 m
(8'2'' - 10')
Avoid installing the detector near moving objects
(e.g., swaying trees, bushes, etc.).
whether
If the installation site is near heavy traffic or objects
beyond the required detection range, adjust the MW
sensitivity and/or tilt the detector down.
