RF835E Wireless
PIR/Microwave Intrusion Detector with Pet Immunity
Installation Instructions
1.0 Overview
The RF835E wireless detector uses passive infraRed (PIR) technology, microwave (MW) technology, and artificial intelligence to detect motion. The RF835E may be installed to provide immunity to false alarms caused by pets. Recommended limits are a dog up to 100 lbs. (45 kg), 2 dogs up to 60 lbs. (27 kg) combined weight, or up to 10 cats. An integral RF transmitter sends alarm, low battery, tamper and routine supervisory signals to the control panel.
