Alert Sensor
SETTING UPSETTING UP
Placement guide
The range of the wireless transmission for the Driveway
Alert system is dependent on local environment (i.e.,
obstructions, weather, signal interferences, etc) and can be up
to approximately 60 meters (around 196 feet) – take this into
consideration when selecting positions for the Alert Sensor
and make sure you test if the location is in range of the Indoor
Alarm Receiver before fitting in place.
The Alert Sensor, under typical conditions, is designed to detect
people and vehicles moving within an area of approximately 12
meters (around 40 feet) at a 100° angle from the sensor.
Installing batteries
The Alert Sensor requires 3 x AAA batteries (not included) to
operate. To install batteries:
1. Use a small Phillips screwdriver to remove the screws from
the battery compartment cover, and then lift up the cover.
2. Insert 3 new "AAA" alkaline batteries, matching the polarity
markings (+ and -) inside the battery compartment.
3. Screw the battery compartment cover back into place.
