Changing Motion Detector Sensitivity
The motion detector features Fast and Slow detection modes,
which are set on jumper J1. Jumper J1 is set at the factory for
the Fast detection mode. In a normal operating environment,
this setting provides the best detection.
In certain environments where rapid air movement, heaters
and other variables present problems, use Slow detection
mode to stabilize the detection.
The diagram on the right shows the jumper location. To open
the case, use a small flat blade screwdriver and gently push in the tab at the bottom
of the case and pull the cover straight out at the bottom. To change the setting from
Fast to Slow, remove the jumper.
Note: Refer to the PC5132 or PC4164 Receiver and Control Panel Instal-
lation Instructions for UL/ULC requirements. For UL/ULC installations
where the WLS914 is used on entry or exit delay zones, the entry delay
must not be longer than 39 seconds, and the exit delay must not be
longer than 54 seconds.
High Traffic shutdown Mode
To prolong battery life, the motion detector uses a feature called High Traffic Shut-
down. When motion is detected, the device will transmit to the receiver and will
then shut down for three minutes. If motion is detected again during the shutdown
time, the unit will not transmit the event to the receiver. The detector will thus
remain in the shutdown mode until three minutes after the first motion detected
was transmitted. If motion is detected after 3 minutes, this will be transmitted
immediately to the panel.
The High Traffic Shutdown Mode affects testing the motion detector in two ways:
• When performing the module placement test, the unit must be tampered by remov-
ing the unit from the backplate and replacing it. The placement test cannot be per-
formed by creating motion in front of the device.
• When performing a system test, the unit must be left idle for three minutes before test-
ing can be performed. Once three minutes has passed, create motion in front of the
detector to see if the device is both detecting motion and transmitting to the receiver.
Motion Detector Transmission Delay
A motion detector transmission is always delayed by six seconds. This is necessary
to prevent false alarms caused by a motion sensor transmitting before a delay zone
has a chance to report. This six-second delay cannot be altered or disabled.
Walk Test Mode
The motion detector has a walk test mode which will activate an LED for testing pur-
poses. During normal operation, the LED will not turn on.
To put the detector in walk test mode, create a tamper by removing the detector
from its backplate and then replacing it. Each time the detector senses motion, it will
turn on the red LED. Six seconds after motion is detected, the detector will send a
signal to the receiver. The detector will be in walk test mode until it has sent 10
transmissions.
NOTE: The Walk Test Mode will override the High Traffic Shutdown Mode.

Enrolling the WLS914
On the back of the PIR housing, there will be two serial numbers: a five-digit num-
ber and a six-digit number. Please refer to your receiver installation manual for
information on which serial number should be enrolled. 
NOTE: If using a WLS900 system, you must use the five-digit serial number.
Mounting
!
  No detector should be mounted without first performing a module
placement test to determine that it is in range of the wireless receiver.
See the Placement Test instructions in the Instruction Sheet for your
receiver, or in the installation manual for your system.
When you have selected a location:
1.
Remove the detector from the backplate (with one hand, hold the sides of the 
detector, and with your other hand push down on the top of the backplate)
2.
Remove the plastic knockouts from the back-
plate mounting holes 
3.
Place the backplate on the wall in the selected 
mounting location, and mark the screw loca-
tions. It is suggested that wall anchors be used 
for all screw locations. 
4.
Secure the backplate to the wall.
5.
Secure the enrolled detector to its backplate.
