TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
•
The sensor should be permanently mounted in a corner or on a
flat wall that is free of vibrations, at a height of 6.5 feet, using the
built-in angle mount.
•
Mount the sensor on an insulated exterior wall facing in.
•
Position the sensor to protect an area where an intruder is most
likely to walk across the detection pattern.
•
Position the sensor so it faces a solid reference point, such as a
wall.
•
If possible, mount the sensor within 100 ft of the panel. While
the transmitter may have a range of 600 ft or more out in the
open, the environment at the installation site can have a
significant effect on transmitter range. Verify actual transmitter
range for each installation.
•
Close all windows in an area with an armed motion sensor.

INSTALLATION
LOCATION
•
Aim the sensor at windows, fireplaces,
air conditioners, area heaters, forced
air heating vents or drapes.
•
Place the sensor in direct sunlight as
sudden changes in temperature may
trigger a false alarm.
•
Mount the sensor near duct work or
other large metallic surfaces that may
affect the RF signals.
•
Set the sensor on a shelf.
•
Mount outdoors or in a non-
temperature controlled environment.
•
Mount at any other height than 6.5 ft.
