Troubleshooting and Frequently Asked Questions
Nothing Happens. The units Do Not Function
Check battery in PIR. Moving in front of it should cause the window to dimly blink.
Make sure you have followed the steps to TEACH the units to each other. Otherwise the
will ignore each other.
Make sure the base unit has the power LED ON or blinking (Blinking if battery powered).

The system is not getting the expected transmission range
To assure best range; keep base unit antenna VERTICAL. Keep the PIR Unit at least a
foot away from trees and metal objects. It can also help to locate the Base unit near a
window with the clearest possible sight of the PIR Unit. The less number of objects
between the devices, the longer the range.

I cannot hear the Base Unit when it signals
The VOLUME button can be used to increase the volume of speaker, though the motion
alert buzzer is not made to be overly loud. If you need to have a louder alarm, the
receiver has a relay that can activate other electrical devices, such as bells, buzzers, or
lights. The relay is a switch that has no power of its own, but can handle up to 120 volts
at 10 amps.

The PIR Unit is picking up people, but not cars
The PIR sensor is not seeing the car’s hot motor or exhaust. To detect cars, it is best to
set the transmitter at an angle to the road, between ten and twenty feet from the road,
and it also helps to have the sensor mounted at the height of the car’s motor.

The unit is signaling constantly, when there is nothing there
Check for tree branches or other objects that might be moving in a breeze or insects in
the sensor window. The sensor can also be fooled by light shining directly into the window,
such as reflected sunlight, or motion in front of a light source.
the sensor window. The sensor can also be fooled by light shining directly into the window,
such as reflected sunlight, or motion in front of a light source.
There is a short beep every ten minutes
The Base unit is indicating that the Battery is LOW. If PIR’s batteries are low, the Base
unit will emit three high-pitch beeps, every ten minutes. If the Base Unit’s batteries are
low, it will have two high-pitch beeps.
low, it will have two high-pitch beeps.
How do I clear the Base Unit’s memory
Press and hold the Learn button, on the Base unit, for ten seconds. It will give a triple-
beep when it has cleared its memory and you can re-teach PIR Units to it. If a PIR Unit
signals, while the Learn button is depressed, the procedure will have to be repeated.

I hear Static and Feedback through the Base Unit
The PIR is probably to close to the Base unit. Once the PIR is installed in the desired
location, it will operate normally.
