TX+
PIR

Wireless Pet Immune PIR

Installation Instructions
PLEASE SEE REVERSE SIDE FOR IMPORTANT PRODUCT
WARNINGS AND DISCLAIMER INFORMATION.


Description


The TX
+
PIR is a motion sensor (passive
-
infrared or PIR) that detects
movement within a specific area by sensing the infrared 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 sign
al to the control panel. The
TX+PIR can be used to protect locations where door/window sensors are
impractical or not needed, such as large areas or open floor plans. Motion
sensors also provide backup protection for door/window sensors and other
security/
intrusion detectors.



The TX+PIR util
izes advanced signal processing

and
a patented modern DSP
ASIC

that

directly converts the infrared detector signal into digital form,
for
superior false alarm reduction, and overall detection performance,

reliability
and stability.


The TX+PIR is designed to allow the presence of pets (up to 80 lbs.) without
signaling an alarm. It includes a special micro
-
element lens array that produces
much stronger optical signals for humans than for pets 80 lbs. or lig
hter.


NOTE: Pets come in many varieties. Some pets (especially larger ones
with very short hair), even if lighter than 80 lbs. may produce enough
infrared radiation to cause alarms. TX+PIR users are strongly advised to
test the sensor with their own pets,

in order to verify that the detector will
not signal an alarm when their pets are moving within its fields of view.


The TX+PIR includes the following features:



40’ x 40’ coverage area



Three
-
minute

transmitter lockout time after an alarm event that helps
extend battery life



Cover activated tamper



Supervisory signals transmitted every 64 minutes to the control panel



Field
-
selectable sensitivity options



Up to 80lb
.

pet immunity



The TX
+
PIR

features the TX+ Encryption protocol which provides encrypted
wireless communication to select Interlogix control panels. Please refer to your
panel’s installation instructions to see if it is TX+ Encrypted capable.



The TX+
PIR
also utilizes the standard

ITI
-
319 protocol which is compatible with
all Interlogix control panels and receivers.

Installation
Guidelines

Temporarily place the sensor in its intended mounting location. Program and
final test the sensor

before permanently mounting it (following the guidelines in
the “Sensor Testing” section below).

Where possible, install sensors within 100 ft. (30 m) of the panel. While a
transmitter may have an open
-
air range of 500 ft. (150 m) or more, the
environment

at the installation site may have a significant effect on operational
range. Changing a sensor location may improve wireless communication.

The sensor can be mounted at either
7.5 ft or 10 ft in height. Depending on the
desired mounting height, the ALIGNM
ENT POST will need to be ad
justed
accordingly (see Figure 3
).
The factory default is set at 7.5 feet

(arrow pointing
down, or opposite direction of the battery)

so if mounting at 10

feet, the circuit
board needs to be removed from the base and the ALIGNMEN
T POST

rotated
180 degrees

and pointing towards the battery

before mounting the circuit board
back into the back housing.



Position the sensor to protect an area where an intruder would be
most likely to wa
lk across the detection pattern.



Mount the motion
sensor on a rigid surface which is free from
vibrations.



Do not mount the sensor near duct work or other large metallic
surfaces which may affect the RF signals (see RF Testing). Actual
acceptable transmitter range should be verified for each installation.



Mount the sensor permanently on a flat wall or in a corner. Do not set
it on a shelf.



Room temperature must be kept between 60° and 120°F (16° and
49° C).



Position the sensor so it faces a solid reference point, like a wall.


Mounting

Once the desired loc
ation has been chosen and the device is ready for
permanent mounting, follow these steps:

1)

Separate the front housing from the back housing, exposing the
circuit board which is securely mounted within the back housing.

2)

With the circuit board facing towards
you (battery should be located
at the top) locate the plastic PCB tab on the right hand of the device
(directly across from the sensing element) and pull it outwards. With
this PCB tab moved to the side, gently lift the right side of the circuit
board out
and pull it up and away to release it from the back housing.
Pay special attention as to not touch the sensing element during this
process. Set aside the PCB while the back housing is permanently
installed.

3)

Mark the location of the required holes on the mo
unting
surface and

identify the surface mount or corner mounting locations on the
backplate that correspond with the intended installation.

4)

Use wall anchors and screws to secure the backplate into place.
Then replace the PCB by inserting the left edge of
the circuit board
into the bottom left corner so that the ALIGNMENT POST is inserted
into the hole.

Ensure foam bug screen remains in place.

5)

Replace the case cover over the sensor and when testing is
completed, the PIR cover can be securely attached to its

mounting
base by screwing the smallest provided screw into the hole located at
the bottom of the sensor.




Setting the Sensitivity

The TX+PIR comes with two sensitivity settings, selectable via a jumper pin
located just below the battery. When set to n
ormal sensitivity, detection occurs
in 3
-
5 steps within the detection path. When set to high sensitivity, detection
occurs in 2
-
4 steps within the detection path. By default, the sensitivity is set to
normal.

Changing the sensitivity from
normal to high

ca
n be achieved by
moving the jumper pins 1
-
3 to 2
-
1.

Walk Test

Enable the LED (J1 in
its enabled position).

Walk across the

monitored
area
(within the sensor
’s

optical fields
-
of
-
view). The

LED should turn ON (for a
larm)
after about two to four normal

steps. Each time the LED turns ON, wait for it to
turn OFF.

Then, wait 12 seconds before continuing the walk
-
test. When

there is
no motion in
the monitored area, the LED should

remain OFF.

Walk testing
should be done to determine the sensor’s actual

coverage area. The edge of
the coverage pattern is

determined by the LED. This may change slightly
depending

upon the sensitivity setting. Walk test

the unit from both

directions to
determine the pattern boundaries.

Note: Excessive use of the walk test mode may reduce battery life. Use
only for initial setup and maintenance testing.

By default, the LED jumper
is in the enabled position. After initial
set up and testing is completed,
move the jumper pin back to the LED disabled position for normal
operation.


Sensor Testing


The sensor test verifies proper communication between the sensor and
the
panel/receiver.
The sensor should be tested prior to perm
anent installation, as
well as weekly.
To test the sensor, refer to the specific panel/receiver
documentation and do the following:

1)

Put the panel/receiver into sensor test mode

2)

Remove the cover from the PIR to activate the
tamper and

enable
the LED per the

Walk Test procedure above. Replace the cover and
move across the detection pattern.

3)

Listen for the siren beeps to determine the
appropriate response
.

N
ote: When enrolled into a TX+ Encryption supported panel and
communicating via the TX+ Encryption
protocol, the panel will beep up to
8

times for each transmission, indicating the total number of packets
received. It is recommende
d that at least 6
out of 8
packets are received
in the desired sensor location to ensure reliable communication to the
panel
.

When enrolled into a panel and communicating via the standard ITI
-
319
protocol, the panel will beep up to 4 times for each transmission during
the sensor test mode, indicating the total number of packets received. It
is recommended that at least 3 out o
f 4 packets are received in the
desired sensor location to ensure reliable communication to the panel.

4)

Exit sensor test mode when proper c
ommunication between the
sensor
and pa
nel/receiver has been verified
.
