CONTROLS
1. SENSITIVITY SWITCH
This switch allows you to set the sensitivity of the motion sensor. This switch is particularly useful when false alarms are easily created by heat sources like radiators, etc. In position 1 the sensor has the maximum sensitivity while in position 2 the sensitivity is reduced.
2. TEST
Used for activating and installing the sensor during
3. CODE
By pressing this key, the sensor gets a new code (1 out of 65.536).
N.B.: When the sensor has been installed on the system already, you have, after pressing the CODE key, to erase the zone of this sensor on the base station and
4. CONTROL INDICATOR
When you press the button TEST, or when the unit is transmitting a signal to the base station, this indicator will come on. When the indicator blinks only weakly, the batteries have to be replaced.
5. BATTERY COMPARTMENT
INSTALLATION (install mode):
The motion sensor is activated by changes in temperature. For that reason do not position the sensor close to or above heaters or air conditioners. The motion sensor has a range of 12m and an opening angle of 90°. Due to the special lens, the motion sensor it “looks down” into the area it has to protect. Place the motion sensor always approx. 180cm above the floor and in such a way that the sensor covers the area it has to protect well.
The supplied mounting bracket can be mounted both in a 90° corner and on a flat surface. A motion sensor works best when an intruder is crossing the footprint of a sensor rather than walking towards it.
Pressing the key for more than 3 seconds switches the movement detector into “Walk Test mode”, in which the detector merely lights up the diode when it detects a movement and does not transmit a radio signal. In this mode it is possible
to test the detection range of the sensor. When the key is pressed again the detector returns to its normal state.
The motion sensors operate according to the Pulse Counting method. Depending on temperature and settings, a possible motion will only be reported to the base station after 30 seconds.
It may seem that the motion sensor is not functioning properly, however, every motion detected at any time always creates an alarm. The advantage of this method is that the number of false alarms is reduced dramatically.
6.MOUNTING THE ANTENNA OF EXTRA MOTION SENSORS
Extra motion sensors are supplied with a wire antenna and a separate antenna tube. For proper operation, slide the plastic tube over the antenna wire and push it firmly into the sensor housing.
PLACEMENT OF BATTERIES
Open the battery cover at the front of the motion sensor. Place 4 AA batteries observing the polarity instructions inside the battery compartment.
Close the battery cover.
ACTIVATING THE MS10
Push the TEST key on the back of the MS10 until the indicator comes on
N.B.: When replacing the batteries of the MS10, the unique code is maintained in the sensor. In case the base station does not recognise the MS10 after changing the batteries, you have to reinstall this sensor. You first have to erase this specific zone (refer to 5.9) and
