1.4 Installing the Sentinare Sensor
Install the Sentinare activity sensor at a height of about 1.8-2.5 meters from the floor and tilt it down
slightly so that it can monitor most of the floor in the room. The sensor should not rotate to the left or
right, i.e., the line between the lens and the LED light should be vertical. Otherwise the fall detection
algorithm could be confused and generate false alarms.
Please avoid facing the sensor at strong light sources such as a big window. Then power up and wait for
about a minute until the LED starts to flash white, indicating that the sensor is ready to be added to the
system. See the following chapters for details.
The bracket of the sensor can be mounted on a horizontal surface, on the wall, or on the ceiling. For
Sentinare 2, the rotating arm of the bracket can be installed in one of two directions.
Both Cypress and Sentinare 2 can be installed upside-down. In this case, you need to turn on the Upside-
Down Installation flag in the App.
The following are different ways to install Sentinare 2, with the optional ball head (the USB cable is not
shown).
