1. Introduction 
The PYR-3011 Digital Wireless Passive Infrared (PIR) ceiling-mount 
motion detector is a high-performance, ultra low power intrusion 
sensor with advanced design ideal for residential and commercial 
applications. This unit works with Rosslare’s control panels like 
HomeLogiX™, which is wireless, and AuraSys™, which is wired. For 
the PYR-3011 to work with AuraSys™, the AuraSys™ panel must 
have the XR-16 wireless expansion. 
The PIR senses slight motion within a coverage area by detecting 
infrared energy with a Pyroelectric sensor. Serving as an anti-
intrusion sensor, the PIR can monitor open space within line of sight. 
“Walk & Radio” test is an easy, as well as friendly, ceiling installation 
that makes it very comfortable for placing and setting.  
The PYR-3011 uses fuzzy logic to improve detections and reduce 
false alarms. 
It also provides digital temperature compensation and self-test 
capability. 
The PYR-3011 is supplied with front and back tampers for high 
security. 
As a wireless device, it includes a supervised mechanism as well as 
a battery-checker and tamper announcement.

4. Installation 
4.1 False Alarm Reduction Effort 
To reduce false alarms caused by detector installation: 
• AVOID: Wiring of the PYR-3011 in such a way that it is parallel 
to and sitting close to 110V AC or 220V AC transmission 
equipment or mains power line. 
• AVOID: Placing near or under heat and air ducts, ovens, heat 
sources, radiators, and air conditioners as this may cause a 
false detection. 
• AVOID: Placing near PL lamps, electrical ballasts, above 
cookers, and ovens, and above steam sources. 
• NEVER: Touch the Pyro-electric sensor on the PCB as this 
causes permanent damage and loss of sensitivity. 
Important Note: PIR works according to field of view and 
cannot detect through walls. Avoid placing near 
obstructions such as large plants, curtains, behind open 
doors, and continuously moving objects. 
4.2 Selecting the Physical Location 
You need to select the best physical location to install the PIR. 
To select a physical location: 
1.  Select a flat ceiling in a room or hallway that best matches 
the criteria in False Alarm Reduction Effort. 
2.  Make sure that the PIR is mounted on a non-moving, non-
vibrating surface of the room. 
3.  The field of view of the detector is about 50° vertical and the 
coverage area depends on the installation height, refer to 
the following table.

(diameters M) 
2M 4.8 
2.5M 7 
3.3M 9 
4M 13 
Table 1: coverage area based on installation height 
4.  Mount the PIR in the selected location. (refer below to 
Mounting the PIR section) 
5.  After the installation, perform a walk test from the mounting 
location to ensure that the sensor pattern can detect within 
the coverage area (see Testing the Detector) 
4.3 Mounting the PYR-3011 PIR 
The PYR-3011G PIR is designed for easy & quick mounting onto a 
ceiling 
To mount the PIR onto the ceiling: 
1.  There are 4 opened holes on 
the back of the casing. Two L-
shaped holes (A) and two 
“water-drop” holes (B) 
2.  Open the back cover by 
twisting the top cover counter 
clock wise. 
3.  Place the back cover over the 
installation location. Ensure that the screws are aligned with 
holes B. 
4.  Mark the location for the mounting screws in holes B (wide 
end), and drill holes in the ceiling 
5.  Place the plugs in the drilled holes and screw in the screws 
leaving it out by about 4mm.  
6.  Pass the screws through the wide end of holes B. turn the 
back cover counter clock wise until the screws rest at the 
narrow end of holes B. Tighten the screws.  
7.  Insert the battery (check for correct polarity). 
8.  Replace the top cover over the back end as shown in the 
drawing below (please note the arrow marks) 
9.  At this point, the detector starts a warm up period which 
performs a self check for about 1-2 minutes. At the end, you 
can start a walk test (refer to signaling and testing sections).

5. Jumper and Tamper Setting 
PYR-3011 has two jumpers, JP1 and JP2 and one tact switch S3 
(test mode) operated by the guide light switch on the external 
casing. 
5.1 Sensitive Level Jumper (JP2) 
To prevent false alarms in harsh environments, three sensitivity 
modes were designated: 
• Low – for harsh environments, jumper on pins 2 and 3 
• Medium – for normal usage, jumper off 
• High – for high sensitivity when there is little chance of false 
alarms, jumper on pins 1 and 2

5.2 APS – Auto Power Save Mode (JP1) 
To save power, the PYR-3011 goes into sleep mode after sending 
an alarm. The time the device will be latent is set by the radio 
mode jumper, JP1. 
• Normal (always 2 minutes between alarms) – no jumper. 
• Dynamic (2 minutes retriggered between alarms) – jumper 
on. 
When the dynamic mode is set, an alarm event will be sent only if 
there were 2 minutes of silence prior to the current alarm. This 
setting is useful for places with a high level of traffic, such as 
factories, shops, etc. 
5.3 Back Tamper (R11) 
The PYR-3011 has both front and back tamper detection. Front 
tamper detection is on by default and it is activated when the 
cover is opened cannot be changed. The back tamper detection 
is activated when the detector is pulled off the ceiling and is 
disabled by default, to enable the back tamper detection cut the 
back tamper wire - R11 - which is marked on the PCB as a scissor 
print.  
5.4 Test Mode Switch (S3) 
This pushbutton is used for walk test or radio test, as follows:  
Walk Test – press for 1 second only; PIR functionality will be 
evaluated during the calibration process, for a 1 minute period. 
(After self check at power up the walk test is automatic enable for 
2 minutes.) 
Radio Test – press for more than 3 seconds; the red indicator 
illuminates. 10 Alarms events are transmitted with 4 second 
intervals for a total transmission time of approximately 40 seconds.  
This test is to insure clear RF passes between the detector and the 
control panel. 
In all modes the LED will remain activate at all trouble 
announcements. 
Refer also to panel manual for RF testing details.

6. Testing the Detector 
The PYR-3011 PIR has a built-in walk test function where the LED of 
the PIR is enabled. This test is used to check the detection of the 
PIR and the coverage pattern. 
To perform a walk test: 
1.  Ensure all of the settings in the PIR are adjusted as necessary for 
the location according to the installation instructions above.  
2.  Insert battery in the closed case as described above. The LED 
flashes on for 2 seconds and off for 2 seconds for a period of 1 
minute. Then the LED turns off. At this point a walk test can be 
performed. As default, perform a walk test of 2 minute at the 
end of the self test. If more than 2 minute goes past, refer to 
paragraph 3. 
3.  Place a magnet over the right side of the lens for 1 second 
only. 
4.  With the LED enabled the LED flashes every time the detector 
detects motion. There is a two second wait period before the 
next detection. 
5.  It is recommended that the installer test the detection by going 
over the protected area and seeing that the detection 
pattern is good. 
6.  After 1 minute, the LED goes off. If a new walk test is needed, 
go again to paragraph 3. 
7. Signaling Table 
The LED on the front of the PYR-3011 is used to send several signals to the user. The following table describes the signals for different activities: 
Activity LED Signal 
Warm-Up  The LED flashes on for 2 seconds and off for 2 seconds for a period of 1 minute. If the warm-up is 
successful, the LED stops flashing and the system is ready for detection. 
Detect Condition   The LED flashes on for 2 seconds and then turns off. 
PIR Problem  The LED flashes on for 1 second and then off for 1 second. A PIR check is conducted every 3 hours. 
Temperature Problem  The LED flashes on in short bursts. 
Weak Battery  LED OFF and ON alternately during Alarm, Tamper event 
8. Testing the Detector 
The PYR-3011 PIR has a built-in walk test function where the LED of 
the PIR is enabled. This test is used to check the detection of the 
PIR and the coverage pattern. 
To perform a walk test: 
1.  Ensure all of the settings in the PIR are adjusted as necessary 
for the location according to the installation instructions 
above.  
2.  Insert battery in the closed case as described above. The 
LED flashes on for 2 seconds and off for 2 seconds for a 
period of 1 minute. Then the LED turns off. At this point a walk 
test can be performed. As default, perform a walk test of 1 
minute at the end of the self test. If more than 1 minute pasts, 
refer to paragraph 3. 
3.  Push the guide light according to the required LED mode. 
(Refer to setting test Mode, above) 
4.  With the LED enabled the LED flashes every time the detector 
detects motion. There is a two second wait period before the 
next detection. 
5.  It is recommended that the installer test the detection by 
going over the protected area and seeing that the 
detection pattern is good. 
6.  After 1 minute, the LED goes off. If a new walk test is needed, 
go again to paragraph 3. 
9. Low Battery Supervision 
Prior to each RF transmission, the battery voltage is sampled. If 
the voltage is low (as indicated by the red blinking light) for 3 
sequential samples, a special message is sent. Once the battery 
level returns to the minimum preset value, fault transmissions 
cease. 

10. Enrolling the Detector 
After ending the self test, the detector can be enrolled. The 
easiest way to enroll the detector is by opening and closing the 
front tamper. 
For specific steps to be followed for the enrolling, refer to the 
manual supplied with the alarm panel.
