1. Press

, ,

to put the system into Test mode.

‘WALK TEST’ will be displayed.

2. Press to activate Walk Test.

‘ Walk Test Waiting…’ will be displayed.

3. Walk into and move slowly around the protected

area, each time the detector senses movement the

LED behind the lens will flash. In addition, the

Smart Home Box will chime to indicate that the

alarm signal has been received and the identity of

the zone that the detector is configured for will be

displayed.

If necessary adjust the detection range by changing

the mounting position of the PCB within the PIR

housing.

Note: In normal operation, the LED behind the PIR

lens will not flash on movement detection, (unless

the battery is low).

If necessary re-adjust the detection pattern by

changing the mounting position of the PCB within

the PIR housing.

4. Remove the back cover of the PIR detector. The

Smart Home Box should chime and display ‘PIR

Detector Tamper’ to show that the detector’s tamper

switch has been activated.

5. Press to return to the top level menu of

TEST MODE.

6. Reconfigure the PIR Detector for normal mode by

setting DIP1 of SW2 to OFF and refit in position.

Note: When the detector is fully installed i.e. battery

cover is refitted; the unit will not detect movement for

approximately 2 minutes after each activation. (This

feature is present to conserve battery power and

maximize the battery life).

MAGNETIC CONTACT
DETECTOR(S)

The Magnetic contact consists of two parts; a Detector

and a Magnet. They are designed to be fitted to doors

or windows with the Magnet mounted on the opening

part and the Detector mounted on the fixed frame.

Opening the protected door/window will remove the

magnetic field, trigger the Detector and generate an

alarm condition, (if the system is armed and the alarm

zone active).

The Detector is powered by one 3.6V 1/2 AA size

Lithium cells which under normal conditions will have

typical life in excess of 5 years. Under normal battery

conditions with battery cover fitted the LED on the

Detector will not illuminate when the Detector is

triggered, (unless in test mode). However, under low

battery conditions this LED will be illuminated when the

detector is triggered. When this occurs the battery

should be replaced as soon as possible.

For double security, there are two tamper switches

fitted on the Detector. Either removing the Detector

from the protected door/window or removing the

battery cover will generate a full alarm condition.

The Magnetic Contact Detector is of self-contained

wired Magnetic Contact. This contact must be of a

normally closed contact type with the contacts being

opened in order to generate an alarm condition.

CHOOSING A MOUNTING LOCATION

The Magnetic Contact Detector is suitable for mounting

in dry interior locations only.

Decide which doors/windows are to be protected by

Magnetic Contact Detectors, (usually the front and

back doors as a minimum will have Magnetic Contact

Detectors fitted). Additional detectors may also be

fitted where required to other vulnerable doors or

windows, (e.g. garage, patio/conservatory doors etc).

Note: Take care when fixing the Detector to a metal

frame, or mounting within 1m of metalwork (i.e.

radiators, water pipes, etc) as this could affect the radio

range of the device. If required, it may be necessary

to space the magnet and detector away from the metal

surface using a plastic or wooden spacer to achieve

the necessary radio range.


INSTALLING THE MAGNETIC CONTACT
DETECTORS

Ensure that the system is in Test Mode.

1. Undo and remove the fixing screw from the bottom

edge of the Detector. Remove the battery cover by

sliding and lifting it off. (DO NOT use a screwdriver

to lever the cover off).
