Setting the sensitivity and range switches
There are switches on the back of the unit for setting sensitivity
and range, as shown in Figure 6 above.
Use the following to determine the appropriate switch settings
for an application:
Mode
BI=Bi-curtain Mode (factory default) increases false
alarm immunity in smaller areas and requires the intruder
to pass through two curtains to trigger an alarm. Do not
use for single curtain applications or ranges under 5 feet
(1.5m).
STD=Standard Mode is used for wide-angle or single-
curtain applications. It requires the intruder to only pass
through one curtain to trigger an alarm.
Note : Operation in the Standard Curtain Mode is UL 639
Listed for the specified ranges of 33 feet (10.1m) and 50
feet (15.2m). For operation in Bi-curtain Mode, the unit is
UL 639 Listed for 30 feet (9.1m) of range only. For ranges
from 30 to 50 feet (9.1 to 15.2m), the unit is not UL 639
Listed but will provide detection within 6 steps or 14 feet
(4.3m) across the plane of coverage. UL has not tested
the 6 steps or 14 foot (4.3m) detection.
Range
Program switch for range under 33 feet (10.1m) (factory
default) or to 50 feet (15.2m). It's important to program the
unit correctly for optimum sensitivity. Walk test the unit
regularly by walking across the fields of view and checking
that the LED lights and that an alarm is indicated at the
control panel. See “Walk testing” below.
Note: The LED only lights if the unit is placed in Walktest
Mode by the installer and the unit is enrolled in the
system.
Walk testing
A Walktest Mode for testing the unit operation and coverage
pattern is provided. Use the following instructions to walk test
the unit:
1. Ensure the unit is enrolled in the PinPoint system.
2. Lift the unit from the bracket until the tamper switch opens
to enable the Walktest Mode.
3. When the unit is remounted on the bracket, the unit
remains in the Walktest Mode for 3-4 minutes. If additional
time is required, depressing and releasing the tamper
switch will reset the Walktest timer. Depending on switch
settings (see “Selecting the coverage pattern” on page 2),
the Walktest Mode allows the unit to alarm whenever one
or two curtain areas are entered. The LED visible on the
front cover lights to indicate an alarm.
4. Walk test the detection pattern and make any necessary
adjustments.
5. Replace and walk test the unit to verify the unit is
communicating with the control panel.
Note : After Walktest Mode times out (3 to 4 minutes), the
unit returns to normal operating mode. In normal operating
mode, the unit will alarm no more often than once every 3
minutes, and the LED is disabled to reduce voltage loss
on the PinPoint bus.
Maintenance
When installed and used properly, the unit provides years of
service with minimal maintenance. To ensure proper operation,
you should walk test the unit annually as described in Walk
Testing.
Clean the inside of the unit with a soft bristled brush or
compressed air. Clean the cover with a damp (water) cloth as
needed to keep it free of dust and dirt. Always test the unit
after cleaning.
Pet alley application
To create a detection-free area close to the floor, mount the
unit 3 feet (0.9m) above the floor, upside down (detector
window towards the ceiling). The undercrawl mask should be
in place to reduce exposure to the ceiling. Coverage distance
is 25 feet in Bi-curtain Mode.
