Wireless Infrared Motion Sensor (490-2025A) Operation Faxback Doc. # 18325 ARMING/DISARMING THE MOTION SENSOR The motion sensor has a separate ARM/DISARM switch so you can have more options for arming the system. If you install several motion sensors, you can set a particular sensor to DISARM, and then arm the system in the Away mode. The system responds to all types of sensors, but it does not receive signals from the disarmed sensor. The disarmed sensor continues to detect motion and its indicator still lights; however, it does not cause the base to sound the alarm. To arm the motion sensor, set ARM/DISARM to ARM. To disarm the sensor, set ARM/DISARM to DISARM. NOTES: In order for the motion sensor to operate as part of your security system, you must set its switch to ARM. Motion sensors do not arm when you arm the system in the HOME mode. MOTION SENSOR BUILT-IN TAMPER SWITCH CAUTION: Do not disassemble the sensor. If someone separates the infrared motion sensor bottom panel from the top panel when the sensor is armed, a built-in tamper switch causes the sensor to signal the base. The sensor continues to send the signal as long as the top and bottom panels are separated. To stop the signal transmission, reassemble the panels or set ARM/DISARM to DISARM. To stop the alarm at the base, enter the access code. USING THE PANIC ALARM You can send an immediate panic signal to the control base by pressing TEST on the bottom of the sensor. The panic feature operates when the control base is in any mode other than the test mode. The sensor can be armed or disarmed. Before you use this feature, test it as follows. 1. Disarm the base. 2. Press TEST on the bottom of the sensor. The sensor's indicator flashes and the control base immediately sounds an alarm. 3. Enter the access code at the base to stop the alarm. 4. Arm the base and press TEST on the sensor. The base immediately sounds an alarm. Enter the access code at the base to stop the alarm. STATUS MESSAGE The sensor reports a status message to the control base about once every hour, whether the sensor is armed or disarmed. The message includes the sensor ID code, a zone-violation message, and information about the battery condition. If the sensor fails to send a message within 12 hours, the MISSING indicator and the sensor's corresponding zone indicator flash on the control base. (CS 10/24/95)
