WALK TEST

INSTALLATION

WALK TEST

After mounting the sensor at the desired location, it is important to perform a walk test in order to determine if the sensor is detecting the things you want to detect.

In order to control how far the sensor can “see”, this can be done by adjusting the angle of the sensor. To reduce the detection range, simply move the sensor downward. To increase the range, move the sensor up to around 12

degrees. This will give the maximum range. However, this may not be desired ifthe sensorisplacedoutdoors,sincea false trigger may occur if the sensor is

set to detect motion in a distance.

You should walk in the area that you would like the sensor to monitor. Entry the CHIME mode by pressing 000A# on the SC-001. The receiver will beep if the sensor detects your movement. If the sensor does not respond, adjust the mounting angle accordingly. Perform the walk test again after 30 seconds. Repeat this procedure until your motion is detected. There should be no movement in the detected area during the 30 seconds.

Perform walk test in the undesired area to ensure movement cannot be detected.

Tips: The sensor should not face towards direct sunlight, placing near heat or cold producing devices (i.e. A/C or furnance vents, fans, ovens, heaters etc.) that may cause false triggers.

TESTING YOUR SYSTEM

Before you learn how to use your security system, test to make sure that the door/ window sensors and the motion sensor are communicating with the Control Panel.

Set the Control Panel to CHIME MODE which will emit a subtly two tone chime when any of the sensors are activated.

To set control panel to CHIME MODE

1.Enter your MPIN [0, 0, 0] on the Control Panel (MPIN is factory set at [0, 0, 0]. To change MPIN see MASTER PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (MPIN) on page 16.

2. Press [ A ].

3. Press [ # ].

The red arm light and all 4 green lights above the numbers and beside the word chime will go on. The system will now emit a chime sound when any sensor is activated. The lights and sounds of the Control Panel are explained in the next section (see Lights and Sounds).

The door/window sensors are factory set to communicate with zone 1 and the motion sensor to communicate with zone 2. If you would like to have the sensors communicate with a different zone, see PROGRAM SENSORS TO DIFFERENT ZONES on page 18.

To test the Door/Window Sensor

Open the door/window and break the contact between the magnetic switch and the magnet. A signal will then be sent to the Control Panel which will chime telling you that the signal has been received. One of the four green lights on the Control Panel will flash once as the chime sounds. If you open the front door, the green light above the #1 (zone 1) will flash.

To test the Motion Sensor

Power up the motion sensor. Walk in the monitored area in front of the motion sensor. Once movement is detected, a signal will be sent to the Control Panel. The Control Panel will then emit a two tone chime and the green light above the #2 (zone 2) will flash once. The motion sensor has been programmed to send its signal to zone 2 in the Control Panel. It will take about 20 seconds for the motion sensor to reset itself before it can send another signal.

If you have pets, have them walk in the monitored area to see if they activate the motion sensor. If so, turn the motion sensor off if these pets have access to the monitored area.
