49-208A.fm Page 2 Wednesday, August 18, 1999 3:15 PM FEATURES Your RadioShack 180° Passive Infrared Motion Sensor is designed for use with security alarm systems, such as those sold by your local RadioShack store. Passive means that the sensor detects changes in heat within its coverage area without a transmitter. When an intruder enters a protected area, the sensor detects the temperature change and triggers the system’s alarm.
49-208A.fm Page 3 Wednesday, August 18, 1999 3:15 PM INSTALLATION Notes about your motion sensor: • This motion sensor is for indoor use only. • The sensor does not have an internal alarm sounding device or power supply. It is designed for use with a UL-listed central alarm panel system that provides a minimum of 4 hours of standby power. You can mount the sensor on the ceiling, a wall or any flat surface.
9-208A.fm Page 4 Wednesday, August 18, 1999 3:15 PM Notes: • The sensor’s ability to detect temperature changes decreases when the reference surface and an intruder’s body are almost the same temperature. • The sensor must be mounted at least 6.6 feet (2 meters) above the floor, except when using the pet lens (see “Selecting the Lens”). SELECTING THE LENS accidental triggering by curtains that are blowing. Use this table to select the proper lens for the coverage you need. Lens No.

Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the screw from the printed circuit board (PCB), then lift out the PCB. 2. Use pliers to squeeze together the two tabs on the back of the PCB, then gently lift the mirror from the PCB. Illustration of mirror removal The reflecting mirror gives the sensor a narrower coverage area.
49-208A.fm Page 7 Wednesday, August 18, 1999 3:15 PM Cautions: • Be sure your power source does not exceed 16 volts DC. • Disconnect power from the main control unit before you connect the sensor to it. If you use more than one sensor and both are set to the Normally Closed (N.C.) and Normally Open (N.O.) alarm outputs, connect them to the control unit’s alarm terminals in series. Illustrations of multiple-sensor connections Connecting the Sensor to Your Alarm For a single-sensor connection: 1.
49-208A.fm Page 8 Wednesday, August 18, 1999 3:15 PM 6. Loosen the screws on the sensor’s terminals to connect the wires. 7. Connect wires from the sensor’s TAMPER terminals to the alarm system’s Normally Closed (N.C.) panic terminals, then tighten the screws. Selecting the Alarm Output Your sensor is equipped with selectable Normally Open (N.O.) or Normally Closed (N.C.) alarm output so you can set it to match your alarm system’s output. Illustration 8.
49-208A.fm Page 9 Wednesday, August 18, 1999 3:15 PM Lift the jumper off both pins of P2 and reposition it on only one pin to set the sensor to one-pulse count. The sensor triggers the alarm system when one zone is violated. Illustration Illustration 2. Using the holes as a template, mark the location with a pencil. MOUNTING THE SENSOR You can either mount the sensor with the supplied double-sided adhesive pad, or follow these steps to use the supplied screws (or other suitable mounting hardware).
49-208A.fm Page 10 Wednesday, August 18, 1999 3:15 PM ADJUSTING THE DETECTION DISTANCE The scale setting on the PCB’s left and right edge, along with the lens you select, determines the detection distance. Lens 1 Scale Setting Wide Angle 1st Zone Feet (Meters) 2nd Zone Feet (Meters) 1 16.4 (5) 3.3 (1) 2 23.0 (7) 6.6 (2) 3 26.2 (8) 9.8 (3) 4 32.8 (10) 13.1 (4) 5 39.4 (12) 16.4 (5) Follow these steps to adjust the detection distance. 1.

Align the latch on the bottom of the upper case with the recess on the lower case, then press the upper case onto the lower case and secure it with its screw. Illustration 5. Take at least five steps across the protected area. Repeat this from four different directions. See if the sensor’s test indicator lights within the first few steps. The sensor should detect movement in at least three out of the four directions you walked.
49-208A.fm Page 12 Wednesday, August 18, 1999 3:15 PM TROUBLESHOOTING If you have problems with your motion sensor, try the following suggestions. If you still have problems, take the sensor to your local RadioShack store for assistance. Problem Reason Suggestion Circuit does not function. Poor contact with the +/– (T5/T6) terminals. Reconnect the +/– (T5/T6) wire firmly. Indicator does not light when triggered. Poor contact in the P1 indicator link. Re-install the P1 indicator jumper.
