Heater Optics
Up to 8 watts of power can be utilized to provide heat to the optical sensing elements. The “Heater Power”
adjustment allows the user to determine the maximum amount of power to use in trying to achieve the temperature
setpoint. This can be an important adjustment in situations where the power budget is limited or in installations
with large quantities of detectors.
Temperature Setpoint
The default temperature setpoint for the heated optics is 35°C but can be adjusted utilizing the rotary dial or by
entering a value in the setpoint field.
Automatic Oi
The MIR X3301 includes the Automatic Optical Integrity (Oi) feature — a calibrated performance test that is
automatically performed once per minute to verify complete detector operation capabilities. No testing with an
external test lamp is required.
The detector automatically performs the same test that a maintenance person with a test lamp would perform
— once every minute, 60 times per hour. However, a successful automatic Oi test does not produce an alarm
condition. The Protect•IR signals a fault condition when less than half of the detection range remains. This is indicated
remotely on the S
3
Point Display and is evident locally by the yellow color of the LED on the face of the detector.
