Indoor and Outdoor PIR Motion Sensors
A motion sensor (passive infrared or PIR) detects movement within a specific area by sensing the infrared energy emitted from a body as it moves across the sensor's field of view. When this motion is detected, the sensor transmits an alarm signal to the control panel.
Use the indoor motion sensor to protect locations where door/window sensors are impractical or not needed. For example, use a motion sensor to protect large areas or open floor plans. Motion sensors also provide backup protection for door/window sensors.
Use the outdoor motion sensor to identify motion in a protected outdoor area. Detected motion in this protected area can sound chimes or turn on outside lights.
The wireless motion sensor includes the following features:
- 35 feet by 40 feet coverage area for standard and optional animal alley lenses
- Masking kit provided to block portions of the coverage area
- Three minute transmitter lockout time after an alarm that helps extend battery life
- Cover-activated tamper (optional wall-activated tamper is included)
- Supervisory signals transmitted every 64 minutes to the control panel
- Sensor low battery reports (trouble) to the control panel
- Field-selectable sensitivity options
