This PIR detector is for use with the activity monitoring feature on Reach IP at-home alarms and Advent XT2 assisted living systems. It monitors the presence of people and records their movements in the Cloud, it does not send an alarm call to the Care personnel.

The PIR can also be used as a boundary alarm for out passage detection with a configurable delay. This makes it possible for the user to leave and return without sending an alarm to the Care personnel, if they don’t return within the pre-set delay an alarm is raised. This avoids unnecessary alarms and additional work for Carers caused by users peeking out of their door. There is no alarm when a person enters making it easy for Carers and visitors.

Positioning

The PIR is for indoor use only, it can be mounted on the wall or door using the bracket provided or simply placed free-standing on a table.

The detection area is about 4 metres within a 90-degree detection angle, see below….

Product Overview

Operation LED; this will indicate when the PIR is switched on/off, when it is in walk test mode, if the batteries are running low and when an alarm is transmitted/received.

Note: this can be switched off with DIP switch 6.

Detection LED; this will indicate when movement is detected. Note: this can be switched off with DIP switch 7.

Removing the PIR Cover

To fit the batteries, gently squeeze both sides of the PIR in the areas marked ▷ and slide the top cover off the base…

Start-up Mode

When the batteries are first fitted the PIR will enter Start-up Mode and the Operation LED will flash green for 45 seconds. Note: there is no movement detection or alarm transmissions during the Start-up period.

If the batteries are low, the Operation LED will flash red during the Start-up period. Replace both batteries. Note: the batteries should be removed if the PIR is being stored or if it is not being used for a long period of time.

Normal Operation

To switch the PIR ON;

Press and hold the ON button until the Operation LED lights green then release.

All movement will be ignored for 15 seconds giving time to vacate the detection area without recording activity.

There is also a delay of 15 seconds after movement is detected until an alarm is transmitted – this gives time to enter and switch the PIR OFF without recording activity. Note: the entry/exit delay can be overridden for instant arm/alarm by selecting the Factory Config setting – DIP switch 1 ON.

To switch the PIR OFF;
Press and hold the OFF button until the Operation LED lights red then release.

Boundary Alarm Mode Operation

The PIR sensor in combination with its internal reed switches and door magnet can detect if the user has opened the door and gone out. After the door is closed and there is no movement detected by the PIR sensor an alarm is sent.

A delay can be set if the user regularly goes out and fetches mail/newspaper etc. In this case, if the user goes out and does not return back within a given time frame an alarm is transmitted.

There is no alarm when a person enters the room, making it easy for Care personnel and visitors to come and go.

Bypass Mode; when a Carer or other visitor leaves the room, they must press the ON button before opening the door. This gives a period of time to open and close the door (default is 15 seconds) without sending an alarm.

Walk Test Mode

This is used to check the detection area of the PIR.

To enter the walk test mode; press and hold the ON button until the Operation LED lights steady green and keep holding until it changes to red then release the button.

The Operation LED will then flash red once every 3 seconds during walk test mode.

Walk in the intended PIR coverage area and check the Detection LED behind the PIR lens flashes red when movement is detected.

To exit the walk test mode; press the ON or OFF button at any time and the PIR will revert to ON mode, or if no movement is detected for 60 seconds the PIR will revert to ON mode automatically.

Note: there are no radio alarm transmissions during walk test mode and the Detection/Operation LED’s are always enabled.

Low Battery Check

When the PIR is switched ON the Operation LED will normally light green, if the batteries are low this will be followed by 5 quick red flashes. Always replace both batteries together: AA size 1.5V Alkaline (LR6).

A low battery check is also performed when the batteries are first fitted – see Start-up Mode above.

The PIR automatically checks the battery level every 24 hours. A low battery condition will be reported automatically to the Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC). The batteries should be replaced within 7 days. The Operation LED does not indicate when this alarm is sent. The first battery check is performed 1-10 minutes after Start-up. A battery check is also performed before each radio transmission.

PIR Configuration DIP Switches

Remove the top cover to access the 8 way configuration DIP switch on the PCB inside…

Use a terminal screwdriver to set the DIP switches

DIP Switch 1 – Configuration Settings

OFF: PIR configuration set using DIP switches 2 to 8.
ON: PIR uses the Factory Config below and DIP switches 2 to 8 are ignored.

Note: with DIP 1 ON there is no exit/alarm delay. The PIR must therefore be carefully positioned so a Carer can switch the PIR on/off without entering the detection area. Poor placement in this mode will result in false activity activations when Carers leave/enter the room.

DIP Switch 2 – Power Saving Mode

Transmitting alarms consumes battery power.

The PIR can be set to Power Saving Mode to extend battery life.

OFF: normal operation, the PIR sends an alarm (Tx) after the first movement detection (M) and will ignore new movement detections (M) for 60 seconds before a new alarm is sent.

ON: power saving mode, the PIR sends an alarm (Tx) after the first movement detection (M) and there must be a period of 60 seconds with no movement detection (M) before a new alarm is sent*.

*Note: the period of no movement is reduced to 20 seconds with the Factory Config setting – DIP switch 1 ON.

DIP Switch 3 – Boundary Alarm Mode

OFF: normal PIR movement detection mode and DIP switch 4 is ignored.

ON: enable Boundary Alarm mode if the PIR is fitted to a door and used with the magnetic door contact.

Note: DIP switches 2 & 5 are ignored if DIP switch 3 is ON.

DIP Switch 4 – Boundary Alarm Exit Delay

In Boundary Alarm mode this setting determines the delay before an exit alarm is transmitted.

OFF: short delay 5 seconds.
ON: long delay 180 seconds.

Note: DIP switch 4 is ignored if DIP switch 3 is OFF.

DIP Switch 5 – PIR Detection Sensitivity

It is possible to adjust the sensitivity of the PIR detector by configuring the number of movement detection pulses that are needed before an alarm is sent.

OFF: high sensitivity.
ON: low sensitivity.

Note: DIP switch 5 is ignored if DIP switch 3 is ON and sensitivity is automatically set to high.

DIP Switch 6 – Operation LED indication after Alarm

OFF: no indication when an alarm is sent.
ON: operation LED will indicate when an alarm is sent.

Note: the Operation LED will always indicate during Startup Mode and Walk Test Mode regardless of this setting.

DIP Switch 7 – Detection LED indication after Movement

OFF: no indication when movement is detected.
ON: detection LED will indicate when movement is detected.

Note: the Detection LED will always indicate during Walk

Test Mode regardless of this setting.

DIP Switch 8 – Disable OFF Button & Alarm Delay

The function of DIP 8 depends on the position of DIP 3. With DIP 3 OFF (Boundary Alarm not activated) – the OFF button can be configured, and alarm delays are set.

DIP 8 OFF: the PIR can be turned off with the OFF button.

This means Carers can enter the room and press the OFF button within 15 seconds to prevent activity being recorded. By pressing the ON button when unit is in OFF mode, movement alarms are ignored during the first 15 seconds allowing time for Carers to leave the room (i.e. when being used as a bed alarm).

DIP 8 ON: the PIR cannot be turned off with the OFF button, this will prevent users from unintentionally turning the PIR off. There is no alarm delay.
With DIP 3 ON (Boundary Alarm activated) – the OFF button can be configured, and alarm delays depend on DIP 4.

DIP 8 OFF: the Boundary Alarm can be turned off with the OFF button.

DIP 8 ON: the Boundary Alarm cannot be turned off with the OFF button, this will prevent users from unintentionally turning the door alarm off. There is no alarm delay.

Wall Mounted Installation

Identify the best location, use the wall mounting bracket as a template to mark the wall.

1. Before drilling the wall be sure there are no electrical cables or plumbing under the surface.
2. Use suitable screws & plugs to fix the bracket to the wall noting the correct orientation.
3. Remove the cover from the PIR as described on page 2
4. Fit the two AA batteries as indicated on the PCB.
5. The Operation LED will flash green for 45 seconds on Start-up.
6. Slide the PIR base onto the wall bracket, then slide the top cover into place and click closed.

Free Standing Installation

1. Remove the top cover and fit the two AA batteries as indicated on the PCB.
2. The Operation LED will flash green for 45 seconds on Start-up.
3. Slide the top cover back into place and click closed.
4. Position the PIR for best coverage.

Boundary Alarm Installation

The PIR has internal reed switches on both sides so the door magnet can be fitted on either side.

There are 2 sets of small lines on either side of the PIR cover to indicate where the reed switches are located.

IMPORTANT: the centre of the door magnet must be aligned both horizontally and vertically with the two lines.
The distance between the PIR and the magnet must be no more 5mm.
The recommended height for mounting the PIR is around 2 meters.

Outgoing Door: when the door is outgoing (as seen from the user’s premises) the PIR should be mounted on the inside of the door and the magnet on the door frame;

Ingoing Door: when the door is ingoing (as seen from the user’s premises) the PIR should be mounted on the door frame and the magnet on the door;

Out of Range Notification (Reach IP)

The Reach IP can monitor all radio peripheral devices to determine whether they have been damaged or removed from an installation. Should the Reach IP be unable to detect a device’s heartbeat it will automatically generate a “radio out of range” notification. Firstly, investigate if there’s a genuine reason for the alert, if not, arrange for the peripheral device to be replaced immediately. The “Radio out of range timer” can be set from 30 hours to 99999 hours in Pulse CMP. “Radio supervision” can be disabled by unchecking the tick box associated with each peripheral device in Pulse CMP.

Maintenance

No routine maintenance is required; however, a walk test should be performed once a month to verify operation. PIR’s are not as susceptible to dust and contamination as some detectors but it is still recommended to clean them periodically. PIR’s can be dusted or wiped clean with a soft cloth, dampened slightly with mild soapy water. Do not clean with detergents, solvents, or polish.

Disposal

Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with normal household waste. The PIR motion detector is ideally suited for disposal within the waste electronic and electrical equipment (WEEE) recycling scheme. Please recycle where facilities exist. Check with your local authority or contact your supplier for recycling/disposal advice.

Telecare Radio ID

The PIR motion detector includes a radio transceiver to communicate with the Reach IP or Advent XT2.

The Radio ID is a 10-digit code printed on the PIR label…
