experience reduced battery life.

Installation:

Mounting Note: Recommended mounting height for standard lens is 6'10" above floor level.

General mounting advice:
!" For the most precise installation, Inovonics recommends using the optional C603 Sharpshooter

sighting mirror. After you have selected the location of the mounting bracket, attach the C603 to the
bracket and view coverage patterns of various lenses, identify potential sources of false alarms and
determine areas that need to be masked. The Sharpshooter functions best when areas being
protected are bounded by solid barriers. Walls and floors provide good backdrops for detecting
changes in infrared energy.

!" For best detection, locate Sharpshooters so that intruders move across detection zone patterns,

rather than toward or away from the sensor.

!" Check areas for potential sources of false alarms. Remember that the sensor responds to quick

changes in heat patterns within its coverage pattern. Avoid locating it where it is exposed to direct or
reflected sunlight, or to objects which can be heated quickly by sunlight. Do not place the
Sharpshooter looking at windows. Don't place it near heat or cold sources, like heater ducts or air
conditioners, which might direct hot or cold air onto the sensor. Look for appliances such as space
heaters which can rapidly heat up. If necessary, mask the lens to eliminate potential sources of false
alarms.

!" Find out about normal use of the area. Are there pets? Might there be birds, bats, mice, for example,

in a warehouse?

!" When the sensor might detect users who enter the protected area through a delayed door, program

the sensor as a "Follower" device.

!" Make end-users aware of the location of the Sharpshooter and caution them about obstructing the

coverage pattern when re-arranging furniture or stock.
