The PIR detects movement by assessing the change of infrared heat emitted by the target surfaces.
This allows minute changes to alert the Smart panel to movement in the controlled area during the time the alarm is set. Not suitable for fitting where temperature is likely to rise dramatically due to external factors such as glass or vent systems. In these circumstances use a shock or acoustic sensor.
A passive-inferred (PIR) motion sensor detects movement within a specific area by sensing the inferred energy emitted from a body as it moves across the sensor’s field of view. When this motion is detected, the sensor transmits an alarm signal to the control panel.
Use the indoor motion sensor to protect locations where door/window 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 window/door sensors.
The wireless motion sensor includes the following features:
- Three minute transmitter lockout time after an alarm, helping to extend battery life
- Cover-activated tamper
- Supervisory signals transmitted every 64 minutes to the control panel
- Sensor low battery reports (trouble) to the panel
