All rights reserved.       Rev 3.5   RESETTING THE IMAGE SENSOR  There are two ways to reset the Image Sensor: • Power Cycle – Power Cycle can be done by one of two ways: (1) Take out and reinsert batteries or (2) press and release the sensor reset button. Only press the reset button if no LED have been active in the last 10 seconds. After a power cycle the behavior of the Image Sensor will enter sensor power up state followed by the memory check state • Network reset - Press and hold a full 10 seconds or until the sensor red LED flashes rapidly to reset the sensor and clear it from its network. Release as soon as you see the rapid flashing. You must do a network reset prior to enrolling an Image Sensor in a new network. You must verify that the Image Sensor is first deleted from the panel it was previously learned into before you can do a network reset on the Image Sensor. See instructions on how to properly delete the Image Sensor from the panel. A network reset will only work if the Image Sensor is not actively communicating with a network. After releasing the reset button, the Image Sensor will enter sensor power-up mode (blinking red LED) followed by memory check (solid red LED) followed by either a blinking green or blinking yellow light. Blinking green means still enrolled in active network. Blinking yellows means the Image Sensor is no longer enrolled in a network and is actively looking for a panel in learn mode. See Camera LED Reference Chart for full list of status indicators and expected behavior after successful network reset has occurred.                                                            Figure 2. Sensor Reset Button PIR ACTIVATION & TEST MODE By default, the image sensor LED does not illuminate when activated by motion unless the sensor is in test mode. The LED can be enabled by tampering the device, via the Alarm.com Dealer Website, or on the panel for each Image Sensor on a customer’s account. The Image Sensor must have successfully completed the enrollment process with a panel. When enabled, the red LED illuminates for 3 seconds upon motion activations (at most every 3 minutes while disarmed).  Instructions to activate on the panel (Note: It may take up to 30 seconds for test mode to take effect after requesting “Test PIR” at the panel): • On the XT panel, go to “Image Sensor Setup” menu and scroll to “Image Sensor Settings”. Enter “Image Sensor Settings” and scroll to the sensor to test, press “OK.”  Scroll to “Image Sensor [y] Test PIR,” and press OK to put the device in test mode.  • On the XTi panel, enter the “Test” menu under “Image Sensor” and press “PIR”.  The screen will display a confirmation to indicate the test mode command has been sent. •  Test mode cannot be activated from the Concord panel.   TAMPER & TROUBLE CONDITIONS Tamper: A built-in accelerometer detects movement or re-positioning of the Image Sensor and will initiate a tamper whenever a change in sensor orientation is detected. The tamper automatically clears after the sensor is returned to the upright position and no movement has been detected for 5 minutes. A tamper can also be cleared by resetting the sensor.  Trouble Conditions: By default, trouble conditions (malfunction, tamper & low battery) are displayed on the panel LCD. Enable or disable trouble condition messages on the control panel LCD via the Alarm.com Dealer Website. Trouble conditions are always reported to the Alarm.com Customer Website and customers will receive tamper/low/malfunction notifications if they are subscribed, regardless of the panel setting.

All rights reserved.       Rev 3.5             c.  Determine location to mount sensor.  Recommended Install Height and Angle Table:       Best Practices for Image Sensor Installation: Do’s and Don’ts Do: •  Target capture areas should be centered in the frame •  Try to enroll and install within 100 ft of panel. Installation site conditions can reduce range considerably.  •  Make sure people are walking across the sensor coverage as oppose to walking directly towards the sensor.   Do NOT: •  Do not set on flat surface. •  Do not set sensor across from mirrors or reflective surfaces. •  Do not face sensor toward or close to areas that have metallic objects or electronics to avoid interference with RF communication. •  Do not install in area where there are obstructions in front of or around the camera lens within 90 degrees and 2 ft around sensor (i.e. walls and ceilings in camera field-of-view). This will result in washed out night captures.  •  Do not install outdoors. The device is for indoor use only. (For proper operation in pet immune applications, the room should be kept between 60° and 110° F.) •  Avoid backlit conditions (i.e. facing window or other light source) since it may result in poor image quality.  d. Choose applicable mounting bracket. The sensor hardware packet contains two mounting brackets for different mounting scenarios. Use the provided large screws and anchors to attach the bracket to the wall.  (Leave at least 3 inches of clearance above the sensor to allow for battery replacement without uninstalling the mounting bracket.)                                                                                                                           Flat Wall Mount     Corner Wall Mount    e. Place sensor with arm on mounting bracket. Adjust the horizontal positioning of the sensor to point towards the desired coverage area.  f. Secure the mounting arm location by sliding lock pin into the hole. Use the washer and remaining small screw to secure the lock pin by screwing upwards through the bottom of the hole in the mounting bracket.    g. Set PIR Sensitivity Settings – 3 options that can be set through the panel or on the dealersite: PIR Sensitivity Settings Table Normal  Default setting High  More sensitive motion profile with potential higher risk of false alarm. Low Less sensitive profile with pet immunity for pets up to 40 lbs  9.  Verify and Test Image Sensor Setup  a. Verify that rules are confirmed via the dealersite or on MobileTech, Resend rules if they are not confirmed.  b.  Verify RF Coverage by checking that the signal strength is above 40%. The signal strength must be greater than 30% for sensor to function properly.  c. Conduct walk test - To conserve the customer’s monthly image upload quota, automatic alarm uploads are disabled for the first four hours after any new sensor (Image Sensor or other) is installed into the system. Installers can also test by requesting image uploads and motion image uploads via MobileTech. Installers are required to be onsite to test by running a comm test at the panel.  d. Test night captures.   DELETING IMAGE SENSOR FROM PANEL Instructions on how to properly delete and Image Sensor from a system. It is important to do the steps in order.  1.  Delete the Image Sensor from the panel via Interactive Services, Dealersite or Mobiletech.  2.  Perform a network reset of the Image Sensor. Seeing instructions on how to network reset an Image Sensor. You will only be able to do this after you’ve completed step 1.  PIR Lens and Camera Coverage Diagrams Figure 3.Side View: PIR Lens Coverage   Figure 4.Top View: PIR Lens Coverage  As indicated in Figure 4, the camera coverage area is narrower than the PIR coverage area. When installing, mount sensor where subjects are likely to be centered in or across PIR and camera field of view.  TROUBLESHOOTING General Troubleshooting Steps  Verify Module Signal Strength  Verify Image Sensor RF Signal Strength: The signal strength must be above 30% for the sensor to function properly.  Verify Images Service Plan: Image capture functionality depends on the  customer’s service plan. Be sure the proper Image Sensor service plan is selected.  Enrollment  Verify Sensor is Receiving Power: After inserting batteries, the sensor LED should illuminate or flash within 10 seconds.  Verify Sensor is Not Communicating with Another Network:  If the sensor has been previously enrolled in a different system or daughterboard, delete the sensor from the system and hold the sensor reset button for 10 seconds to clear the sensor from old network before attempting to enroll the sensor in a new network. The sensor cannot be cleared if it is currently communicating with its network.  In this case the sensor must be deleted from the system first through the control panel or remote command.  Sensor Non-Responsive  Verify Range: Under the “Image Sensor Setup” menu, scroll to “Image Sensor  Settings,” select the sensor and verify under “Signal” that the sensor is registering a strong signal. If signal strength is low, move non-responsive sensor closer to control panel, verify signal strength and see if communication resumes. Be sure that Image Settings  Angle  Mounting height Pet Immunity  6° angle – Shallow  6 ft Larger rooms   6° angle – Shallow  8 ft Smaller rooms   18° angle - Deep  8 ft         Washer & Screw Back Pin  Screws
