Quick Start Guide HMSM4050 Wireless Motion Sensor 1
Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of the Motorola Wireless Motion Sensor (WMS). Your sensor uses a heat/motion detector to scan a field 90 degrees wide up to a range of approximately 20 feet. This enables you to secure an area, regardless of day or night, rain or shine. This Quick Start Guide describes how to set up and troubleshoot your Wireless Motion Sensor.
Installation Overview Your package contains the following: Wireless Motion Sensor Wall Moounting Bracket Hardware Mounting Kit Batteries Installing your sensor is a simple process. 1 Twist the WMS clockwise at the seam in the middle and pull the two halves apart. 2 Insert batteries. 3 Register your sensor with your Wireless System Controller using a process called Discovery. Refer to your homesight Software User Guide for instructions on how to discover your Wireless Motion Sensor.
Installation Hints Please consider the following points when mounting the sensor: • The sensor must be aimed so that it does not directly face the sun or any bright light; otherwise, this may cause damage to the sensor. • The Motorola Wireless Motion Sensor is constructed of UV-resistant ABS plastic.If installing the Wireless Motion Sensor outside, it should be shielded from the elements, such as underneath a porch roof. Do not install the sensor where it is subjected directly to the elements.
Wall Mount Drilling Template Mounting tools: Screwdriver, electric drill or awl. On hard surfaces, Motorola recommends that you pre-drill ½-inch deep pilot holes with a drill bit slightly smaller than the bracket mounting screws before securing the bracket to the surface. When mounting a sensor on soft surfaces like sheetrock, use an awl to punch holes in the material slightly smaller than the plastic anchors included in the hardware mounting kit.
Troubleshooting Problem Solution Sensor will not register with the Wireless System Controller • Ensure that the sensor has fresh batteries. • Ensure that the Wireless System Controller is powered and online. • Ensure that you are pressing the Discovery button. • Reposition the sensor closer to the Wireless System Controller. • Try another location. • Ensure that the sensor is not positioned behind glass. The motion sensor is triggered by changes in heat.
