ADC-IS-100-LP, ADC-IS-100-SL Installation & User Guide
Product Summary
The Alarm.com Image Sensor (ADC-IS-100-LP,
ADC-IS-100-SL) is a wireless PIR (passi e-infrared)
motion sensor with image capture capabilities.
The PIR sensor detects motion by changes of
infrared radiation in the sensor’s detection area.
The sensor reports motion acti ations to the
control panel it is enrolled in. An Alarm.com
Image Sensor enabled GSM module is required
to enroll the ADC-IS-100-LP and ADC-IS-100-SL
into a control panel.
On motion acti ations, the de ice can be
configured to capture images. Specific
Alarm.com ser ice plans and hardware are
required for this ser ice.
Compliance
Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
(1) This de ice may not cause interference
(2) This de ice must accept any interference,
including interference that may cause undesired
operation of the de ice
Changes or modifications not expressly appro ed
by Alarm.com can oid the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class B digital de ice,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to pro ide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. Howe er, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or tele ision
reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to
try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
•Reorient or relocate the recei ing antenna.
•Increase the separation between the
equipment and recei er.
•Connect the equipment into an outlet on a
circuit different form that which the
recei er is connected.
•Consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/TV technician for help.
Installation Guidelines
Adhere to the following guidelines for optimal
performance and false alarm protection:
The ADC-IS-100-LP or ADC-IS-100-SL
should be installed indoors only using
the pro ided corner or flat wall mount
brackets and mounting arm.
The sensor should be mounted on a flat
wall surface (do not set on shelf) free of
ibrations.
To obtain the maximum co erage area of
40 feet by 40 feet, the sensor should be
mounted at a downward angle as
prescribed in the installation
instructions. Altering mounting height
or angle will change the co erage area.
The sensor should be mounted within
100 feet of the control panel. The range
may be affected by en ironmental
conditions that ary by installation.

communication, such as metallic objects
or electronics likely to produce

interference. Complete full sensor
testing to erify proper communications,
e en if within the specified range.
The de ice is designed for indoor use
only and should not be installed
outdoors. For proper sensor operation,
the room should be kept between 60°
and 120° F.
For optimal detection capabilities,
mount the sensor where someone will
most likely walk across the sensor
co erage area as opposed to directly
towards the sensor.
The horizontal position of the sensor can
be altered while mounting by lifting the
sensor about 1/3 of the way off the
mounting piece and rotating it. Position
the sensor such that acti ity of interest
will be detected within the sensor field
of iew. Be sure to properly secure the
sensor with the pro ided pin and screw.
Lea e at least 3 inches of clearance
abo e the sensor to allow for battery
replacement without uninstalling the
bracket mount.
Mounting Hard are
The ADC-IS-100-LP and ADC-IS-100-SL mounting
hardware packet contains:
Mounting Arm- The mounting arm
attaches to the back of the sensor and to
the wall mounting bracket. To attach
the mounting arm to the sensor, slide
the back co er off the sensor. Insert the
mounting arm pins into the holes on the
back of the sensor. Secure the back of
the sensor to the mounting arm with the
pro ided screw and washer.
Mounting Bracket- The sensor comes
with 2 mounting brackets for different
mounting scenarios. Use the pro ided
1” screws and anchors to attach the
bracket to the wall.
•Flat Wall Bracket- Use for
mounting on flat surfaces (non-
corner).
•Corner Wall Bracket- Use for
mounting in corner (non-flat)
scenarios.
Lock Pin- The lock pin is used to secure
the horizontal position of the sensor
once placed on the mounting bracket.
Once the sensor is placed on the
mounting bracket, slide the lock pin into
the hole and push to secure.
Assembly Pack- The assembly pack
includes the necessary mounting
accessories for installation the sensor.
•1’’ Screws (2)- For securing the
mounting bracket to wall
•Anchors (2)- For securing the
mounting bracket to wall
• Washer (1)- For securing sensor
back to mounting arm
•¼” Screws (2)- For securing
sensor back to mounting arm;
For securing the lock pin
Installation Steps
1) Determine sensor mounting location
based on installation scenario and
according to Installation Guidelines
indicated abo e.
2) Choose applicable mounting bracket for
customer scenario. Mark location of
bracket holes on mounting surface at a
height of 8 feet.
3) Secure the mounting bracket to the
mounting surface using the anchors and
wall bracket screws.
4) Attach the mounting arm to the back of
the sensor. Slide the sensor back off and

3
use the washer and small screw to
secure the mounting arm to the sensor
back.
5) Slide the sensor back and mounting arm
assembly onto the mounting bracket.
Adjust the horizontal positioning of the
sensor to point towards the desired
co erage area. To adjust positioning, lift
the mounting arm at least 1/3 of the way
off the bracket and rotate the arm.
6) See “Programming- Enrolling Sensors”
instructions for enrolling the sensor into
the panel. After enrolled, slide the
sensor onto the mounted sensor back.
7) Perform sensor testing.
8) Secure the mounting arm location by
sliding the lock pin into the hole. Use
the remaining small screw to secure the
lock pin by screwing it up through the
bottom of the hole in the mounting
bracket.
Programming- Enrolling Sensor
The ADC-IS-100-LP and ADC-IS-100-SL is enrolled
in the control panel ia the Interacti e Ser ices
menu, which is isible when the Alarm.com
Image Sensor enabled GSM Module is used.
Before completing image sensor enrollment, the
control panel should be communicating with
Alarm.com. For questions on modules and panel
compatibility, refer to the Support Tools section
of the Alarm.com Dealer Site.
To enroll the sensor in the Simon XT 1.3:
1) Remo e batteries from the sensor.
2) On the panel, scroll until the screen
displays “System Programming”, press
OK.
3) Enter the installer code (default 4-3-2-1)
and press OK.
4) Scroll to “Interacti e Ser ices”, press OK.
5) Scroll to “Image Sensor Setup”, press OK.
6) Scroll to “Image Sensor Learn Mode”,
press OK.
7) Insert the batteries into the sensor.
8) Wait (approximately 10 seconds) for the
control panel screen to display “Camera
[x] Added as Sensor [y]”.
9) The sensor is now learned into the panel.
The sensors are enrolled in group 17 by
default. To change the sensor group, use
the Sensors menu in System
Programming.

Troubleshooting
Sensor Non-Responsi e
•Verify Range: Verify sensor
range is not an issue by
confirming motion acti ations at
sensor position with a
functioning sensor.
Alternati ely, mo e non-
responsi e sensor close to
control panel and erify
operation.
•Replace Batteries: Check battery
le el at the panel and install
fresh sensor batteries.
Improper Motion Acti ations
•En ironmental- Heating or
cooling elements may ad ersely
affect sensor performance. Test
sensor with and without these
elements to determine
interference.
•Sensor Positioning- The sensor
may not be properly positioned
to capture the desired motion.
Check horizontal positioning of
sensor and re-mount as
necessary.
