If you require your sound files to play in a specific order, you must rename the files to 01, 02, 03, etc, and then download the files onto the Sensor, one by one, in that specific order. Please note the Sensor is not able to playback files randomly.

Installation

• The sensor can be mounted using the bracket included or directly onto the head of a screw using the holes on the rear side.
• The Sensor can also be mounted onto any nat surface using a self-adhesive pad or Velcro, (hook & loop pad).
• The Sensor is NOT recommended for outdoor use.
• To avoid false or unwanted Sensor activations, do not install this device near high-power electrical appliances, switching devices, heaters, air conditioning units, or in environments that have a large change in temperature.

Important Notes

• If you need to format your Sensor, please use a Windows PC using FAT or FAT32.
• Please DO NOT format the Sensor using a MAC computer, this will permanently damage the Sensor and it can not be repaired.
• Special note for MAC users. When you delete unwanted sound files from the Sensor please also ensure that you delete the files from your computer’s Recycle Bin. This will ensure the files have been completely removed.

Trouble Shooting

• If you experience a problem when connecting your Sensor to your computer, please check the plugs and sockets to see if the cable is fully connected or has become damaged. Please also check if you are using the correct USB cable because some USB cables do not allow you to transfer data files. Try using a different cable to connect.
• The Sensor will only play sound files saved in MP3 format. The total file size can not exceed 4MB capacity. We recommend that your MP3 file is MONO, 128kbps, 44.1 kHz, 16 Bit. Please also ensure that your file name does not include any symbols, such as – # ” > * + / etc.
• If your MP3 file is larger than 4MB, try editing it to make the file size smaller. Editing methods could include, i) Reducing the playback time, ii) Changing the sound file from Stereo to Mono, or iii) Altering the sample rate. Please contact us if you require more help with audio editing.
• MP3 files that have been created using iTunes are not compatible. iTunes MP3 files use different coding, so please try using another software program to convert your files to MP3.
• If the battery power becomes low, you will experience false activations and/or incomplete playbacks. Replace with new high-quality batteries.
