Description

The alarm will be triggered when the infrared sensor (PIR) and microwave sensor detect motion within a time period shorter than 4 seconds.
Anti-mask feature
Detection by the microwave sensor of an object moving at a distance of 10-20 centimeters from the detector is interpreted as an attempt to mask the detector and results in activation of anti-mask output for two seconds. Objects permeable to microwaves, but isolating the infrared radiation are not detected by the anti-mask feature.
The anti-mask feature meets the EN 50131-2-4 requirements.
Dusk sensor
Figure 1 shows the way the dusk sensor operates. On the timeline, the T time delay is presented (in operating mode T=3 min, in configuration mode T=3 s). Illustrated with the letter H light intensity hysteresis and time delay make the sensor immune to short and accidental changes of light intensity. Table 1 presents light intensity values for three out of sixteen programmable detection thresholds of the sensor (see “Configuring the detector”).

Supervision features
In the event of the voltage drop below 9 V (± 5%) for more than 2 seconds or the motion detection system failure, the detector will signal trouble. The trouble is indicated by the activation of alarm output and the steady light of all LED indicators. The trouble signaling will continue as long as the trouble persists.
LED indicators
The LEDs indicate:

  • warm-up ­ all LEDs flashing alternately for about 40 seconds;
  • motion detected by microwave sensor ­ green LED ON for 4 seconds;
  • motion detected by PIR sensor ­ yellow LED ON for 4 seconds;
  • alarm ­ red LED ON for 2 seconds;
  • trouble ­ all LEDs ON for the entire duration of the trouble.

The LEDs are also used in the configuration mode (see: “Configuring the detector”). You can enable/disable the LEDs. When disabled, the LEDs will not indicate the states described above.
Enabling the LEDs by using a jumper
If you put a jumper across the LED pins, the LEDs will be enabled, i.e. they will indicate the events described above (the LED indicators can’t be enabled/disabled remotely). If you do not put a jumper across the pins, the LEDs will be disabled, but they can be enabled / disabled remotely.
Remote LEDs enable / disable
The LED terminal is provided to allow remote LEDs to enable/disabled. When the terminal is connected to common ground, the LEDs are enabled. When the terminal is disconnected from common ground, the LEDs are disabled.
If the detector is used in the INTEGRA / INTEGRA Plus alarm system, you can connect to the terminal the OC type control panel output programmed e.g. as “Zone test status” or “BI switch”.
Remote configuration mode enable / disable
The SVCE terminal is provided to allow remote configuration mode enable/disable. The configuration mode is enabled when the terminal is connected to the common ground. If the detector is used in the INTEGRA / INTEGRA Plus alarm system, you can connect to the terminal the OC type control panel output programmed e.g. as “Service mode status” or “BI switch”.

On the other side of the electronics module, there is a tamper switch activated by removing the detector from the wall.
When mounting the detector on the angle or ball bracket, it is necessary to install an additional tamper switch (it is included in the detector delivery set).

Installation

Disconnect power before making any electrical connections.
If the detector is to be pet immune, it should be mounted at 2.4 m height with no vertical tilt. It is especially important when mounting on a ball bracket.

  • Install the detector at the recommended height (Fig. 3-I).
  • If traffic nearby or objects moving out of the protected area cause an alarm, move the detector slightly downwards or reduce the detector sensitivity (Fig. 3-II).
  • Install the detector so that the expected movement of an intruder will be across the coverage pattern (Fig. 3-III).
  • Don’t install the detector closer than 3 meters from the moving objects (e.g. tree branches, bushes, laundry etc.) (Fig. 3-IV).
  • Don’t direct the detector on reflective surfaces or on fans or a heat source (Fig. 3-V).

When putting two or more cables into the enclosure, it is advisable to place them in a heat shrink tube. It reduces the risk of getting water into the enclosure.

  1. Remove the front cover (Fig. 4).

  2. Remove the electronics module (Fig. 5).

  3. Make the opening for cable in the enclosure base.

  4. Mount the enclosure base to the wall (see: “Wall mounting”), to the angle bracket (see: “Angle bracket mounting”) or to the ball bracket (see: “Ball bracket mounting”). In Figure 6 possible ways of mounting the detector are shown.

  5. Fasten the electronics module in the enclosure base.

  6.  Connect the wires to the corresponding terminals.

  7. Configure the detector (see: “Configuring the detector”). 8. Replace the cover.

Wall mounting

  1. Run the cable through the opening in the enclosure base.
  2. Using wall plugs (screw anchors) and screws, fasten the enclosure base to the wall.

Angle bracket mounting

  1. Attach extra tamper switch: ­
    screw the holder to the tamper switch (Fig. 7-I), ­
    screw the tamper unit to the enclosure base (Fig. 7-III).
    Figure 7 shows mounting the tamper switch in one of two available positions. The place of tamper switch installation depends on the way of angle bracket mounting. If the tamper switch is to be installed in the other position, place the tamper switch holder on the other side.

  2. Prepare openings in the bracket for screws and a cable.

  3. Pass the cable through the prepared opening.

  4. Using wall plugs (screw anchors) and screws, fasten the bracket to the wall.

  5. Run the cable through the opening in the enclosure base.

  6. Using screws, fasten the enclosure base to the bracket (Fig. 7-IV).

Ball bracket mounting

  1. Attach extra tamper switch: ­
    screw the holder to the tamper switch (Fig. 8-I), ­
    put the unit making the surface bigger on the tamper switch (Fig. 8-II), ­
    screw the tamper unit to the ball bracket (Fig. 8-IV).

  2. Run the cable through the opening in the handle of the bracket.

  3. Using wall plugs (screw anchors) and screws, fasten the ball bracket to the wall (Fig. 8-V).

  4. Run the cable through the opening in the enclosure base (Fig. 8-VI).

  5. Using screws, fasten the enclosure base to the ball bracket (Fig. 8-VII).

Connecting the additional tamper switch
The additional tamper switch is provided with three wires:
– black ­- common wire,
– blue ­- wire for NC circuit,
– grey ­ – wire for NO circuit.
The tamper switch can be connected in series to the detector tamper output (TMP) or to an additional tamper circuit.

Configuring the detector

The detector allows you to configure the working parameters of each sensor separately: ­
– detection sensitivity of the microwave sensor, ­
– detection sensitivity of the PIR sensor, ­
– detection threshold of the dusk sensor.
Each sensor has 16 sensitivity thresholds.

All parameters set in the configuration mode are written in the detector non- volatile memory and are retained even after power loss.
If the detector is to be pet immune, for the infrared and microwave sensors do not set the detection sensitivity higher than the default.
Starting configuration mode
Press the detector MODE button for 2 seconds or apply the common ground to the SVCE terminal. After starting the configuration mode, the green LED starts to blink, it means that you can configure the sensitivity of the microwave sensor.
Signaling in the configuration mode
The way in which LEDs operate during the configuration of the sensors is as follows:
The microwave sensor
green LED ­ blinking informs of microwave sensor configuration, blinking frequency informs of sensitivity (higher blinking frequency = higher sensor sensitivity), yellow LED ­ signals motion detection ­ ON for 2 seconds.
The PIR sensor
yellow LED ­ blinking informs of PIR sensor configuration, blinking frequency informs of sensitivity (higher blinking frequency = higher sensor sensitivity), green LED ­ signals motion detection ­ ON for 2 seconds.
The dusk sensor
red LED ­ blinking informs of dusk sensor configuration, blinking frequency informs on the set detection threshold (higher blinking frequency = higher detection threshold), yellow LED ­ ON when the light intensity is below the set threshold.
Reaching the bottom or top limit of the adjustment setting is indicated by the LED which is ON for 3 seconds.

Configuring by means of the detector buttons
By pressing buttons – (value decreasing) and + (value increasing) set the sensitivity / the detection threshold of the sensor.
Pressing buttons – and + simultaneously restores default settings for the configured sensor. Keeping the buttons pressed for 3 seconds restores default settings for all sensors.
Press the MODE button briefly in order to proceed and configure another sensor. Blinking of the proper LED will indicate which sensor is being configured (see: “Signaling in the configuration mode”).
Configuring by means of OPT-1 keyfob
The OPT-1 keyfob is available in SATEL’s product range.
Point the keyfob towards the detector and by pressing buttons (value decreasing) and   (value increasing) set the sensitivity/detection threshold of the sensor.
Pressing the button   restores default settings for the configured sensor.
By pressing (the next sensor) or   (the previous sensor) go to another sensor configuration. Blinking of the proper LED will indicate which sensor is being configured (see: “Signaling in the configuration mode”).
Ending configuration mode
Press the detector MODE button for 2 seconds or remove the common ground from the SVCE terminal.
If the configuration mode was activated by means of the MODE button, it is automatically exited after 20 minutes since the last operation performed by the user.

Start-up and walk test

  1. Power up the detector. All LEDs will begin alternately blinking for 40 seconds, which indicates the detector warm-up.
  2. When the LEDs stop blinking, check that moving within the coverage area will make the LED light-up red. Figure 9 shows the coverage areas of the motion detector (a – minimum, b – default, c – maximum, d – creep zone).

Separate testing of sensors
Testing of the sensors is done in the detector configuration mode. Starting the mode, choosing the sensor and the way of changing sensitivity are described in detail in the chapter “Configuring the detector”.

  1. Start the configuration mode.
  2. Choose the sensor to be tested.
  3. Check that moving in the coverage area will make the violation signaling LED light up.
  4. If it is needed, readjust sensitivity and check the sensor operating.
