Installing STE-8000 sensors
Rough-in preparation

False detections may be triggered by:
◆ The temperature inside the detection range suddenly changes because of
the entry of cold or warm air from an air-conditioning or heating unit.
◆ The sensor being directly exposed to sunlight, an incandescent light, or
other source of far-infrared rays.
◆ Small animal movement.
Rough-in
preparation
Complete rough-in wiring at each sensor location prior to sensor installation.
This includes the following.
◆ Routing the connecting cable from the sensor to a controller.
◆ If required, install the appropriate backplate. See Accessories on page 4 for
model numbers.
Connect the STE-8000 series sensor to a controller with a standard Ethernet cable
with RJ-45 connectors on each end. Maximum cable length is 75 feet (22.9
meters). Plenum-rated preassembled cables are recommended.
Installing the
sensors
To install the sensor on a backplate, do the following:
1. Turn the Allen screws in the base of the NetSensor clockwise until they
clear the cover. Swing the sensor away from the mounting base to remove
it.
2. Route the Ethernet cable through the mounting base.
3. Fasten the mounting base directly to a 2 x 4 inch outlet box or a backplate
with the Allen screws toward the floor.
