and
(2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause
undesirable operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by
Bosch Security Systems can void the user’s authority
to operate the equipment.
2.0 Installation Considerations
•Never install the detector in an environment that causes an alarm
condition. Good installations start with the LED OFF when there is no
target motion. It should never be left to operate with the LED in a
constant or intermittent alarm (red) condition.
• Avoid installations where rotating machines (e.g. ceiling fans) are
normally in operation within the coverage pattern. Point the unit away
from glass exposed to the outdoors and objects that may change
temperature rapidly.
Note: The PIR detector will react to objects rapidly changing temperature
within its field-of-view.
• For optimum detection, select a location likely to intercept an intruder
moving
across
the coverage pattern.
3.0 Mounting
• Recommended mounting height range is 12 to 25 feet (3.7 to 7.6 m). A
coverage area of 40-70 ft. (12.2-21.3 m) is available when mounted
between 8-12 ft. (2.4-3.7 m).
• The surface should be solid and vibration-free. (i.e. drop tiles should be
secured if the area above the tiles is used as an air return for HVAC
systems).
• To open the detector, locate the arrow on the cover of the detector .
Turn a screwdriver in the recess between the cover and the base .
One side of the cover will remain attached to the base of the detector.
Page2 © 2003 Bosch Security Systems DS939 Installation Instructions
• If necessary, you may remove the base from the cover by pressing the
two cover release tabs inward while lifting the base away from the
cover.
• Route wiring as necessary to the rear of the base and through the center
hole.
Note: Be sure all wiring is de-energized before routing.
• Firmly mount the base. Depending on local regulations, the base may
be directly surface mounted using anchors, mollies, or wing-nuts. It may
also be mounted to standard 3.5 in. octagonal electrical box. The
detector may also be connected directly to short lengths (short enough
to avoid movement of the detector) of ½ in. (1.27 cm) EMT.
Hint: Mounting to removable ceiling tiles is not recommended unless a
sandwich is made of the base, ceiling tile, and a back plate behind
the tile.
Mounting Base
Wire entrance and/or EMT Mounting.
Mounting holes.
Tamper Post.
Wire entrance for surface mounting.
Holes for cable ties.
Note: Using the curved mounting slots allows the detector to be
rotated up to 60° to obtain the desired coverage.
• If ceiling tamper is desired, loosen the tamper post by cutting the 3 tabs
and mount the post to the ceiling using a #8 screw .
5.0 Wiring
CAUTION
Only apply power after all connections have been
made and inspected. Do not coil excess wiring inside
detector.
Note: Input power must use only a Listed Limited Power Source. Some
countries require that the Alarm and Tamper Contacts be
connected to a SELV (Safety Extra-Low Voltage) circuit only.

7.1 PIR Sensitivity Selection Pins
For selection, place the plug across the appropriate pins. No jumper across
the "HIGH/LOW" pins puts the detector in a "High" setting.
•Low Sensitivity (LO): The recommended setting for most installations.
This setting tolerates environment extremes. The detector is shipped
in Low Sensitivity mode.
•High Sensitivity (HI): Use in locations where adequate catch
performance is not achieved in the Low Sensitivity mode. This setting
tolerates only minor environmental changes.
7.2 LED On/Off Pins
The ON position allows operation of the LED. If LED indication is not desired
after setup and walk tests are completed, place in the OFF position. No
jumper across the "ON/OFF" pins disables the LED.
• Walk test the unit from all directions to determine all the detection
pattern boundaries.
Note: Wait at least 2 minutes after power up before walk testing.

8.0 Other Information
8.1 Memory, Day Mode, Night Mode and Remote Walk
Test
Note: Memory, Night Mode and Remote Walk Test require a supply
voltage on Terminal 8 to activate these features. This supply
voltage must be between 6 and 18 VDC. You may use a switch as
shown below:
Or use an external power supply as shown below:
Note: Control voltage: +6 to +18 VDC = ON (Switch Closed)
0 VDC = OFF (Switch Open)
• Day Mode: The Day Mode disables the alarm memory and allows the
LED (if activated) to operate normally.
• Memory: When the DS939 is in the Night Mode the memory is
activated. This allows the detector to store an alarm for display at a
later time.
Note: Memory mode requires that the LED jumper be in the ON position.
• Night Mode: The Night Mode enables the alarm memory and disables
the LED operation.
• Remote Walk Test: This feature allows the LED operation to be
remotely enabled via Terminal M for walk testing. This feature is used
when the LED operation is disabled by having the LED jumper in the
OFF position.

8.2 Anti-Vandal Screw
• After the cover has been closed, the entire assembly can be secured
together using the supplied anti-vandal screw .
8.3 Maintenance
At least once a year, the range and coverage should be verified. To ensure
continual daily operation, the end user should be instructed to walk through
the far end of the coverage pattern. This ensures an alarm output prior to
arming the system.
