![1ITI® Aritech APW 450 PIR Motion SensorITI Part No. 60-XXXInstallation InstructionsDocument Number: 466-1812 Rev. A PRELIMINARYApril 2000Preliminary 4/18/00Product SummaryA motion sensor (passive-infrared or PIR) detects move-ment within a specific area by sensing the infrared energy emitted from a body as it moves across the sensor’s field of view, causing a temperature change in the sensor’s zones. When this motion is detected, the sensor transmits an alarm signal to the control panel.Use this motion sensor to protect locations where door/win-dow sensors are impractical or not needed. For example, use a motion sensor to protect large areas or open floor plans. Motion sensors also provide backup protection for door/window sensors.The ITI® PIR utilizes advanced signal processing, a new custom designed lens, and a new custom designed sensing element. The combination of these improvements provides false alarm immunity for pets with a combined weight of up to 40 pounds while still providing superior human catch performance.This wireless motion sensor includes the following features:❑35 feet by 40 feet coverage area❑Three minute transmitter lockout time after an alarm that helps extend battery life❑Cover-activated tamper (optional wall-activated tamper is included)❑Supervisory signal transmitted every 64 minutes to the control panel❑Sensor low battery reports (trouble) to the control panel❑Field-selectable sensitivity options (standard setting required for pet applications)Installation GuidelinesThis PIR was designed for use in the presence of pets hav-ing a combined weight of up to 40 pounds. The following installation guidelines must be met to provide this false alarm immunity.1. If possible, locate sensors within 100 feet of the panel. While a transmitter may have a range of 500 feet or more out in the open, the environment at the installa-tion site can have a significant effect on transmitter range. Sometimes a change in sensor location can help overcome adverse wireless conditions.2. The required mounting height is 7 1/2 feet.3. Position the sensor to protect an area where an intruder would be most likely to walk across the detection pat-tern (see Figure 1).4. Mount the motion sensor on an insulated, outside wall facing in.5. Mount the motion sensor on a rigid surface which is free from vibrations.6. Position the sensor so it faces a solid reference point, like a wall.7. Do not aim the sensor at windows, fireplaces, air condi-tioners, area heaters, forced air heating vents, or place it in direct sunlight.8. Do not mount the sensor near duct work or other large metallic surfaces which may affect the RF signals (see “Final Testing” on page 4). Actual acceptable transmit-ter range should be verified for each installation.9. Mount the sensor permanently on a flat wall or in a cor-ner. Do not set it on a shelf.10. Windows should be closed in any area which has an armed motion sensor.11. The pet must not be allowed to climb on objects such as furniture, boxes, etc. within the field of coverage. See Figures 2 and 3 to determine the sensor’s field of cov-erage.12. Room temperature must be kept at 60º F or higher.13. The sensitivity switch must be set to Standard.Figure 1.Overhead (Bird’s Eye View) Detection Path8362G04B.DS4Person walking across detection path](https://usermanual.wiki/UTC-Fire-and-Security-Americas/779A-PIR.Users-Manual/User-Guide-96886-Page-1.png)
