1. CHAMBERLAIN Overview The Alert uses a Passive Infra Red sensor to detect movement of people and vehicles while allowing small animals to pass through undetected Carton Inventory Passive Infra Red PIR Motion Sensor Base Station exe Rubber Pads Mounting Plate AC Adapter Mute Off Button Antenna Learn Button Base Station Switch 1 Base Station Switch 2 On Off To turn Base Station off hold down the Mute Button until it powers down The Base Station can be turned on by pressing the Mute Button Mute Press and release the Mute Button to put the Base Station into Sleep Mode for one hour After an hour it will activate automatically Battery The AA Alkaline batteries not provided in the PIR Motion Sensor will last up to 2 years depending on use Lithium batteries recommended for colder environments If Base Station battery optional is low it will beep every few minutes Replace with 9 Volt battery not provided For peak performance inspect batteries annually and replace as needed Model RWA310R Wireless Pedestrian amp Vehicle Alert Base Station Switches Switch 1 OFF Buzzer Off ON Buzzer On Default OFF Switch 2 OFF Long Buzz ON Short Buzz Default ON Programming Additional PIR Motion Sensors The Base Station can learn the code of up to 3 additional PIR Motion Sensors responding with unique buzzes To program additional PIR Motion2. Motion Sensor Installation Mount PIR Motion Sensor horizontally on solid surface 500 mm off the ground and within 400 m of Base Station rotate sensor to access screw holes Unit should be able to swivel as needed Attach sun rain shield NOTE Keep PIR Motion Sensor antenna away from metal objects Do not mount PIR Motion Sensor in direct sunlight near moving tree branches or in the path of a sprinkler system Vehicle Alert Installation For cars the best mounting position is about 500 mm high between 1 2 m back and angled to see the back of car after passing the sensor Ne H ACCESSORY The Base Station has a relay which can activate other devices such as a doorbell buzzer or light The relay switch can handle up to 24 Vac at 10 amps The accessory device will need a separate power supply The accessories can be purchased at any electronics store Troubleshooting The PIR Motion Sensor lights up but the Base Station does not respond The PIR Motion Sensor must be programmed to Base Station See Step 6 Ensure Base Station is on and is not muted If the green power light is not lit or is flashing press the Mute Button on the top of the Base Station to wake it up If the green power is illuminated look at the two small white Base Station switches next to the Learn Button The 1 Dip Switch should be down towards the circuit board If it is up the Base Station has been muted If the Base St
