6. After enrolling the sensor into the control and setting

the Option Switches, reposition sensor over the

back housing and snap it into place. This action will

activate the Walk Test mode for the next 10

minutes. Perform an immediate Walk Test accord-

ing to the procedure that follows.

7. If the swivel mount bracket was used then it will be

possible to adjust (fine tune) the Sensor coverage.

If the swivel bracket was not used, and the sensor

was fixed mounted to the wall, the coverage pattern

is based on the mounting height and position.

8. After Walk Testing has been completed, secure the

sensor to the back housing using the locking screw

provided (small countersunk screw).

WALK TESTING

Walk testing is a way to verify that a sensor has been

installed in the optimum location and is working properly.

This involves taking short and deliberate steps across

the coverage zones in both directions. When motion is

detected the White LED should blink once followed by

a quick blink of the Green RF ACK LED. The Green LED

is indicating that the sensor transmitted and was

acknowledged by the control/transceiver. For more

information read the paragraph titled: RF ACK (Acknowl-

edge) GREEN/RED LED

NOTE: Walk Test mode bypasses the Sleep Cycle timer

allowing the Sec./Convenience LED and the RF ACK

LED to operate regardless of DIP switches 2, 3, and 4.

There are two methods for Walk Testing.

Sensor Walk Test - This is started by opening and

closing the sensor housing to violate the tamper

switch. Sensor Walk Test will end after 10 minutes.

NOTE: Sensor Walk Test can be forced to end by

either arming the M1 (any arm mode) or by

entering and exiting the System Walk Test mode.

2. System Walk Test - This is started by activating

Keypad User Menu 3 - Walk Test Area. A wireless

command is sent to the 6030 telling it to join the

System Walk Test mode. As each sensor is tripped

the keypad will chime and display visual results.

The M1 will speak the relative signal strength of

each sensor's transmission. Press the asterisk (*)

key to end this walk test mode.

NOTE: Two-way commands are not immediate. It

can take several seconds for the sensor to receive

the command to enter or exit the walk test mode.

RF ACK (Acknowledge) GREEN/RED LED

This bi-color LED is located in the clear lens on the

sensor front. It provides visual status of the two-way

acknowledge (response) from the control/transceiver.

In may be difficult to see this LED in bright lighting

conditions. DIP Switch #2 allows this LED to be disabled

for all operations except the Walk Test Mode.

GREEN blink = Sensor has successfully transmitted

a signal to the control/transceiver and the signal was

positively acknowledged.

RED blink = Sensor was not successful in transmitting

to the control/transceiver after multiple attempts.

POSSIBLE CAUSE: a)The distance between the

sensor and the transceiver may be too great. b)The

control/transceiver might be off-line or unpowered.

Check the following:

A. Verify that the M1XRFTW Transceiver is powered

on and that its status LED is blinking.

B. Verify that the M1 Control is powered on.

C. Trip a different wireless sensor to determine if

it can successfully communicate.

C. If steps A,B, & C are OK, temporarily move the

failed sensor closer to the transceiver and

retest. If sensor successfully communicates at

the closer range then it may be necessary to:

1. Relocate the transceiver to a closer and more

central location to this and all other sensors.

2. Purchase and install an additional “remote”

transceiver to cover the area where this sensor

was mounted.

DISABLING THE RF ACK LED

DIP Switch #2 allows the RF ACK (Acknowledge) LED

to be disabled for regular operation. This prevents

unauthorized persons from learning the coverage pat-

terns. It also helps extend battery life. Place DIP Switch

#2 in the "NO" position to disable the RF ACK LED, or

in the "YES" position to enable the RF ACK LED.

NOTES: DIP Switch #2 does not disable this LED from

working in the Walk Test Mode.

PULSE COUNT (Switch 6)

Sensor must detect 1 or 2 events in the

FUTURE (Switch 1)

Sensor must detect 3 or 4 events in the

coverage area before an alarm is created.

RANGE (Switch 5)

Sensor is set for the shorter detection range

(approximately 39ft.)

Sensor is set for the longest detection range

(approximately 49ft.)

To extend battery life, a mandatory sleep cycle (2 time

settings) begins after each alarm transmission. After

the Sleep Cycle expires, there must be ~8 seconds of

quiet (no movement) before the sensor will be allowed

to detect and send another radio transmission.

Long (120 secs.) Until this timer expires the

sensor cannot transmit another event.

SECURITY/CONVENIENCE LED (Switch 3)

This switch is not currently utilized.

Short (30 secs.) Until this timer expires the

sensor cannot transmit another event.

Sec/Convenience LED is NOT ENABLED

except for the Walk Test Mode.

Sec/Convenience LED is ENABLED for

other functions besides just the Walk Test

Mode. See back page for details.

RF ACK "Alarm" LED (Switch 2)

RF ACK LED (Green/Red) is NOT ENABLED

except during the Walk Test Mode.

RF ACK LED (Green/Red) is ENABLED. It

should blink Green or Red after each detect.

4. SENSOR ENROLLMENT FROM ELKRP

4.1 Launch the ElkRP PC software and open the

desired Customer Account file.

4.2 Click the "+" next to Zones (Inputs) to expand the

view. Look to see if there are any existing wireless

zone groups. If there are none then it will be

necessary to add or create a new group. To create

a wireless group, right click on Zones (Inputs) and

click New Wireless Zones. Place a check mark

in the box to be added, starting with Group 2). Click

OK. Repeat if more wireless groups are required.

NOTE: The M1 Control requires all expanded

zones to be defined in groups of 16. E.G. Zones

17-32 = Group 2, zones 33-48 = Group 3, etc. And

it requires the M1XRFTW Two-Way Transceiver

to always be enrolled as the first expander

(databus address 2). For this reason, the first

group of wireless sensors must be defined as

group 2. M1 allows a maximum of 144 wireless

zones, therefore the last potential wireless

zone will be Zone 160. So, If a large number

wireless zones is ever anticipated, it would be

a good idea to avoid conflict with any future

Hardwired Zones in the 17 to 160 range by NOT

enrolling any Hardwired Zone Expanders

(M1XIN) at data bus addresses below 10.

4.3 Double click on Wireless - Group _ (the group just

added) and double click one zone at a time to define

the Zone Name, Definition, Type, Attributes, etc.

4.4 The next step is to enter the sensor's TXID and the

other wireless setup data. This may be done

directly from each zone definition screen (click the

Wireless Setup button) OR from the separate

Wireless Setup menu accessed from the folders

column.

4.5 Place a check mark in the Enabled box.

4.6 Set Supervision type to "1" (Normal Supervision)

for the 6030 Sensor. A setting of "0" means the

control will not expect a supervisory check-in from

the sensor. For additional details refer to Supervision

on the previous page.

4.7 Skip past the block titled: This device is a PIR (auto

restore).

Do Not Enable. The 6030 PIR will transmit

a restore after each alarm as long as all functions

return to normal. This M1 option is for other

supported brands of wireless PIRs that do not

transmit restorals.

4.8 Skip to the TXID box and enter the Sensor TXID that

is printed on the small label attached to the sensor.

4.9 Skip to the LOOP box and enter a 2.

4.10 Click Save. Repeat the entire step 4 for each

additional Wireless Zone and Sensor.
