 3 1 General The LC-171 is unique motion detector utilizing dual passive infra-red elements and Microwave technology for use outdoors and in harsh environments.  The LC-171 is designed for outdoor use in the most severe climatic conditions and may also accommodate pets. High reliability is achieved by combining both dual tech hardware with highly sophisticated software and an adaptive coverage area, greatly reducing the possibility of false alarms. The active elements are comprised of a dual element PIR and advanced Microwave detector inside a stylish, rigid plastic body.  This special optics combined with state of the art microwave Doppler sensor assures elimination of “false alarms” while maintaining high security standards for the detection of human intruders into the protected area. The detection sensitivity and range is controlled by a digital rotary switch allowing 16 calibration levels, so that the correct detection pattern will be set for every installation.  The LC-171 is designed to protect large areas and can easily be installed on walls or poles in order to provide a solid area of protection while rejecting interference from birds and small animals due to the provided pet immunity optics. 2 Features •  Microwave detection based on Doppler concept. •  N.O. & N. C. Relays switched at the same time. •  Pet immunity up 35kg. •  16 levels of PIR sensitivity adjustment and 3 microwave sensitivity groups. • Temperature compensation. •  Microcontroller signal processing. •  Front and back tamper protection. •  Audible indication of walk test and intruder detection. •  Unique waterproof sealed plastic design. •  Detection Range: Up to 18m •  Detect human intruders walking or running. •  No maintenance required. • High RFI/EMI Immunity. •  Protection from: direct sunlight, wind up to 30 m/sec, snow and rain, small animals, removal of the top cover and removal from mounting bracket
 4 3 Assembly description The LC-171 is a robust detector which includes a large LED indicator that can be easily observed from long distances and an optional buzzer to provide indication of intrusion.  Using the supplied mounting bracket, the LC-171 can be easily mounted to walls using mounting screws and poles using the supplied metal bands.     The LC-171 is combined of three detection elements: •  Upper PIR element •  Lower PIR element • Microwave element •  The upper PIR element has an adjustable detection height while the other two are fixed.  The following drawing shows all internal elements:    Upper PIR element Lower PIR element Microwave elementLED Terminal Connection Blocks LED and Buzzer dipswitchesSensitivity setting Direction Angle IndicatorRange setting handle  Range Indication Tamper switch Bracket locking screw
 5 4 Detection Pattern The LC-171 has a 90° top view PIR and MW detection pattern with over 18m detection distance (when installed at 1.2m above the ground surface). The LC-171 has an internal rotating housing (which includes the 2 PIR elements and the MW) that can be adjusted horizontally, so its 90° coverage may vary between 0° and 180°.         The LC-171 can differentiate between pets and human bodies and alert accordingly by  having microwave movement detection combined with two PIR detection beams:. A. Lower PIR element which is fixed to 18m range and 60cm above ground level which helps avoiding pet detection over the entire area. B. Upper PIR element which has adaptive range between 3 and 18m. An intrusion is defined by both PIR detection beams being crossed and a Microwave detection occurring, causing an alarm. No alarm will be generated if only one of the PIR detection beams is crossed and microwave detection occurs. Detection area Lower PIR element detection pattern Fixed to 18m range Microwave detection pattern  Detection  No DetectionNo pet detection in all protected area Upper PIR element detection pattern Adjustable between 3m and 18m (10 ft to 59 ft)
 6 5  Selecting mounting location  The installation of the LC-171 requires a solid, level base for the mounting bracket and must be located in a manner that when the detector is mounted, it is facing the center of the desired detection zone. The protected area must be free from obstacles like walls, fences, trees, ditches and other microwave detectors. Choose a location most likely to intercept an intruder according to detection pattern on page 5.   Avoid the Following Installation Locations: •  Facing direct sunlight. •  Facing areas subject to rapid temperature changes. •  Mounted at more than 10º from the vertical or horizontal plane.  •  Facing metal doors. •  Near direct sources of heat or airflow. •  Clear all physical obstacles from the detection area  (e.g. Plants, laundry, etc.) •  Clear all light reflecting surfaces from the detection area, including puddles or other standing water.  •  Avoid installation on the following types of ground: Thick vegetation, Grass (un-mown), Water, Sand and Metal.      NOTE:  Recommended installation height is 1.2m. The DOUBLE DUAL high quality sensor detects motion crossing the beam; it is less sensitive detecting motion towards the detector. The LC-171 performs best when provided with a constant and stable environment. In order to ensure suitable operation of the LC-171 type of ground should be one of the following: Asphalt concrete, Cement, Soil, Clay, Gravel or Grass (mown).
 7 6 Detector Installation Important! Prior to installation, read both “Operation” and “Selecting the mounting location” sections carefully. 1. Install the detector in such manner that the intruder is most likely to cross the detection area from side to side.  2. The detector is to be installed at height of 0.8 to 1.5 meter (ideally 1.2m)  3. Make sure to attach the metal bracket to a leveled straight and firm wall, leaving 15cm from the top and 15cm from both sides, for easy installation and maintenance.  4. Rotating the detection beam may be required for guarding a side window opening while the detector is installed facing another direction.   5. Open the detector unwinding the bottom screw.  6. Release the rear metal bracket by unwinding internal bottom screw.  7. Release the detector body from the metal bracket by pulling the detector out and up.  8. Attach the rear bracket to the wall or a pole using mounting screws or metal bands.
 8 9. Break the relevant knockouts on the rear side of the plastic base and slide the wires from the outside via the paths and knockout to the internal side of the detector.  10. Attach the sealing “U” shaped Sponge Pad to the wire opening from the rear side after the wires have been connected and prior to final product affixing to the mounted bracket.  11. Place the detector on the mounting bracket from top side down and then lock the screw at the bottom.   12. Connect the wires to the terminal blocks according to the following chapter.
 9 7 Terminal Block Connections  Terminal 1 - Marked “-” (GND) - Connect to the ground of the Control Panel. Terminal 2 - Marked “+” (+12V) - Connect to a positive Voltage of 9.6 -16Vdc source (usually from the Control Panel) Terminals 3 & 4 - Marked “TAMP” - If a Tamper function is required connect these Terminals to a normally closed 24-Hour Tamper Zone on the Control Panel.  If the top cover of the detector is opened or the detector is detached from installation wall, an immediate alarm signal will be sent to the Control Panel. Terminal 5 - Marked “EOL” - End of line – optional terminal for end of line resistors connections.  Terminals 6, 7 & 8 - Marked “NC / C / NO” - These are the output relay contacts of the detector. Connect to a zone input on the control unit. When an intruder is detected, alarm relays (N.C. and N.O.)  will switch for 1.8 sec.  7.1 Wire Size Requirements Use #22 AWG or larger wires. Use the following table to determine required wire gauge and length. Wire Length [m]     205  310  510  870 Wire Length [ft.]     800  1200  2000  3400 Wire Gauge [#]       22  20  18  16
 10 8  Settings & Adjustments 8.1  Detection beam direction The LC-171 detection beam direction may vary between 0º and 180º.   In order to change the detection beam direction rotate the internal detection element housing to the desired direction.  8.2  Detection range setting The LC-171 detection range may vary between 3m and 18m, while installed on 1.2m height above the ground surface.      Changing the detection range is achieved by sliding the upper detection element up or down.
 11  To adjust for ranges between 3m and 18m slide the detection element up or down to correspond with the desired distance. Each step between 3m and 18m represents 3m of  range.              Maximum Range (18m, 60ft)           Minimum Range (3m, 10ft)      8.3  Sensitivity, Range and Pet immunity Adjustment  The calibration of range and sensitivity is performed by a single 16 position rotating switch. There are 3 groups of switch settings grouped according to desired detection range. Each group is divided into several levels of sensitivity according to the installation environment. The sensitivity is determined by a single 16 position rotating switch. Changing the sensitivity affects immunity to environmental noises, and also affects the detection distance and pet immunity level. The rotating switch is marked with digits from “0” to “9” and following letters from “A” to “F”. Position “0” is maximum sensitivity and “F” is minimum sensitivity. Note: Adjust sensitivity according to environmental conditions! Group A - positions 0 – 5 – set sensitivity for 18m detection range with immunity to pets weight up to 20kg  Group B - positions 6 – A – set sensitivity for 13m detection range with immunity to pets weight up to 35kg  Group C - positions B – F – set sensitivity for 7m detection range with immunity to pets weight up to 35kg  NOTE: Ensure that you select the group with a range corresponding to or slightly higher then the range set in 8.2. Do not select a group setting that has a lower range then the range set in 8.2.

For example: If detector is used for 13m (42 ft) range in open space with sunlight and pets, set switch to position 9.
 13 8.4 Indications setting     The LC-171 has two types of indicators:  1. LED  2. Buzzer The installer can adjust both indicators operation during detection (ON or OFF) by using switch number “1” for the buzzer and switch number “2” for the LED.  When the LED indicator is ON the LED indicator will activate for 1 second each time an intrusion is detected. When the LED indicator is OFF the LED will not be used to indicate an intrusion has occurred. When the Buzzer indicator is ON the Buzzer will activate for 1.8sec each time an intrusion is detected. When the Buzzer indicator is OFF the buzzer will not be used to indicate an intrusion has occurred. (Setting the buzzer ON gives the installer the ability to have audible confirmation of intrusion detection during the adjustments and a walk test. After completing adjustments and walk testing it is recommended to switch the buzzer OFF)   •  Place the top cover to the base and close it using the bottom screw.

The detector shall be provided with minimum of 4 hours of standby power from either a listed compatible control unit or power supply.    The detector begins a 2 minute warm up period once connected to power.   The LED will flash for the first 30 seconds of the warm up period after power up. The device is operational once the LED stops flashing   The warm up period will continue for 90 seconds after the LED stops flashing   Once the warm up period is complete the device is ready for use
 15 10 Test procedure   Walk Test IMPORTANT NOTE: Once installed, the unit should be thoroughly tested to verify proper operation and coverage. After installation, the unit should be tested annually by the installer. The end user should be instructed on how to perform a weekly walk test.   Ensure that the detector has completed the 2 minute warm up period before walk testing Make sure that the protected area is cleared of all people. Create motion in the entire area where coverage is desired by walking perpendicular to the detection pattern. Listen to ALARM sound whenever motion is detected (the red LED also turns ON whenever motion is detected).  Allow 5 sec. between each test for the detector to stabilize. Walk across the entire area where coverage is desired. Should the coverage be incomplete, readjust coverage range or relocate the detector.  Once coverage is as desired, the buzzer and LED should be disabled.
