Wireless Infrared Motion Sensor
(490-2025A)                Troubleshooting            Faxback Doc. # 18327

If you have problems with the sensor, check the following to correct the
problem.  If you continue to have problems with the sensor, contact your
local Radio Shack store for assistance.

If the alarm does not sound after the sensor detects motion, be sure:

    The sensor's battery is installed correctly and has power.

    The ARM/DISARM switch is set to ARM.

    The control base is armed in the AWAY mode.

    The control base has power.

    The sensor is assigned to a zone.

    The sensor covers the entire area you want to protect.  Move the sensor
    and/or change its angle, if necessary.

    The SENSITIVITY control and/or PULSE switch are set correctly.

    The 2½ minute period of inactivity has passed.

    The sensor is within range of the control base.  Test the range.

    The control base's exit or entry delay period has passed.

If there is no panic operation, be sure:

    The sensor's battery is good, and the control base has power.

    The control base is in a mode other than the Test mode.

    The sensor is assigned to a zone.

    The sensor is within range of the base.

If you experience frequent false alarms:

Find the cause of the false alarms and remove it from the area.

You can also adjust the location and angle of the sensor and change the
settings of the sensor's SENSITIVITY and PULSE controls.  To prevent false
alarms, set SENSITIVITY to MIN and set PULSE to 3.

Or, attach the supplied lower-sector filter to disable the lower sectors.
