WBOX 0E-PIR319

The WBOX 0E-PIR319 is a feature packed passive infrared motion detector. It is compatible with alarm systems that support the Qolsys, ITI, and GE 319.5 MHz frequency. The 0E-PIR319 features a 60 lb. pet immunity, an integrated tamper switch, and has an installation height of 7.5' to 10'. The PIR is powered from one (1) CR123A battery.

The 0E-PIR319 is a great option for any system that supports the Qolsys, ITI, and Interlogix/GE 319.5 MHz frequency signal. The motion has various mounting holes that allow it to be mounted flat against the wall or in a corner for a 45 degree wall mounting. You will need to knock out the hole covers and use screws. You can also install with the three (3) included adhesive strips.

PIR motion detectors sense changes in infrared energy. They use a pair of pyroelectric sensors that constantly compare them against each other. When the signal differs, that is when the motion will trigger. This PIR motion uses a dual-element detection method. The elements are connected together in reverse polarity to provide a detection signal that is converted to digital form for best operation. It also has common mode rejection with a trademarked HighBar to help prevent false alarms. This only allows qualified signals, aka pulses, to be detected and cause an alarm when the alternating polarities are produced. WBOX refers to this as "best-in-class" false alarm rejection.

The 0E-PIR319 also features a selectable motion sensitivity setting. While most installations will use the normal sensitivity setting of 3-5 steps, you can adjust to high sensitivity of 2-4 steps, if your installation warrants it. The steps referred to are the typical number of steps needed to trigger motion detection. Be sure to mount the motion where it is in plain sight of the monitored area. Install the PIR where it will be aimed away from windows and heating and air vents. If you have pets, please ensure to mount the motion in a location where the <60 lb pet can not climb on stairs or furniture to appear larger than they are, and falsely trigger the PIR.

After powering on the motion, it will go through a 1-minute warm-up period. Next, learn in the motion using your specific alarm system's auto-enroll method. Please refer to the installation guide of that system for details. Then, be sure to perform a walk test to ensure proper operation. It is also a good idea to test these once a year. With the LED on, walk the area you are testing. When the LED turns on, wait for it to turn off, plus an additional 12 seconds, before continuing the walk test. If you have pets, please be sure to walk test with your pets, as well.

Popular panels that use the 319.5 MHz frequency are the 319.5 versions of the IQ4 Hub, IQ Panel 4, and IQ Pro. The PROA7PLUS with a PROTAKEOVER module that is set for three (3) which is the 319.5 MHz setting.

NOTE: This motion is also available in a 2GIG 345 MHz and a DSC 433 MHz version.
