Bosch Building Technologies Reference Manual 2018.10 | 01 | F.01U.352.414
4 Installation considerations
When installing the detector, observe the following installation considerations.
Notice!
Bracket use
Using a mounting bracket might reduce catch performance, range, as well as increase false
alarms. Reduced catch performance might invalidate regulatory certification on the
installation. The use of mounting brackets has not been evaluated by regulatory agencies.
Microwave Doppler radar energy passes through glass and most common non-metallic walls.
The PIR detector reacts to objects rapidly changing temperature within its field-of-view.
Detectors using passive infrared (PIR) technology recognize that all objects give off (emit)
infrared energy. The warmer an object is, the greater the amount of infrared energy is emitted.
The PIR receiver technology is designed to detect the change in infrared energy caused when
a target of a different temperature from a stable background passes through its field of view
(coverage pattern).
Point the detector away from:
Glass exposed to the outdoors.
Objects that might change temperature rapidly such as heat sources, air
conditioning outlets, or surfaces heated by sunlight.
Objects that small animals such as birds and mice might climb on (stairs,
shelves, ledges, furniture) and appear in the upper zones of the PIR which
are more sensitive. Small animals in close proximity to the detector,
within the field of view might, also cause false alarms.
Do not install:
In a location where direct sunlight shines onto the detector.
Outdoors.
Near rotating machines or other moving objects within the field of view.

2018.10 | 01 | F.01U.352.414 Reference Manual Bosch Building Technologies
Do not install:
Near objects that can block the field of view.
Where an intruder would walk only directly toward or away from the
detector.
In a location where the detector’s field of view is blocked by movable
objects such as boxes, furniture, doors or windows, window coverings,
hanging signs, etc. The PIR detector does not detect through glass.
Near doors and windows or other openings where cold or warm air can
flow onto the detector.

5 Installation
This section includes hardware details and the instructions you need to install the motion
detector base.
5.1 Self-locking cam
The detector includes a self-locking cam for easy installation. Refer to the following
information to open and close the detector.
Open the detector and remove the base
1. Insert a flathead screwdriver into the self-locking cam hole.
2. Turn to the unlock position.
3. Slide, then lift the detector from the base.
1 2 3
Attach the detector back onto the base
Notice!
When you remove the detector from the base, the cam automatically returns to the locked
position. When you place the detector onto the base, the cam must remain in locked position.
Do not manually change the cam once you remove the detector from the base; doing so
unlocks the detector and prevents you from putting the detector correctly onto to base.
1. Put detector onto the base.
2. Slide the detector up until you hear it "click."

5.2 Install options
Install the detector using the detector base.
Install the detector on a flat wall or in a corner. Refer to Mount directly –
for linking.
Install the detector using a bracket. Refer to Install on a bracket, page 11.
Detector coverage patterns are designed for optimal performance when
installed vertically and horizontally level. The detector base includes a
removable bubble level which helps you align the unit. Before drilling the
installation holes, use the bubble level to align the detector. Refer to
Bubble level, page 14.
Install directly to the surface
When installing onto a flat surface, select the installation holes shown in the figure. Drill or tap
out holes with a screwdriver.

Bosch Building Technologies Reference Manual 2018.10 | 01 | F.01U.352.414
Install on a bracket
Mounting brackets help align the detector to a vertical angle and to correct imperfections
(non-perpendicular angles) of installation surfaces.
Choosing a mounting bracket:
– The B335 bracket allows a vertical pivot range of +10º to -20º and a horizontal pivot
range of ±25º.
– The B328 bracket installs on a single-gang box and allows rotation of the detector. The
bracket allows you to insert the wiring through the black tube section in the center of the
bracket mounting plate and through the back of the detector base.
– The B338 bracket designed for ceiling mounting allows a vertical pivot range of +7º to
-16º and a horizontal pivot of ±45º. The bracket allows you to insert the wiring through
the ceiling cavity and into the detector base.
When using a mounting bracket, pre-drill or tap out all of the mounting holes shown for that
bracket in the following figure.

7 Look-down and walk test
7.1 Look-down zone
The detector has a manual cam to enable or disable the look-down zone. Enable the look-
down zone to detect motion under the detector area.
To reduce false alarms, disable the look-down lens for locations where small animals are likely
to cross the look-down zone.
Turn left to disable the look-down zone. Turn right to enable the look-down zone.
7.2 Walk test LED
The walk test LED indicates the detector's operational status.
2 min
During the warm-up period (after providing power to the
device), the LED flashes continuously until the device is
ready for use.
During walk test, the LED indicates PIR and microwave
activity activity and also a motion alarm condition (dual
alarm).
If the detector is in a self test fault condition, the LED
flashes 4 times repeatedly.

Bosch Building Technologies Reference Manual 2018.10 | 01 | F.01U.352.414
8 Configuration
Selecting the detector configuration setups are done using the control panel's supported
remote programming software. The remote programming software allows you to enable or
disable the configuration setups by selecting the appropriate menu options within the
software.
Accessing through MAP RPS
1. Launch MAP 5000 RPS program.
2. Open Hardware Manager.
3. Expand Internal BDB menu tree.
4. Expand [LSN GW 1] menu tree.
5. Find Dual PIR option under Toolbox.
6. Click and drag [LSNPro/PDL1-WA18x/WAC25x LSN from Toolbox to the LSN loop box.
7. Right-click, and select Properties.
8. Scroll down and find Misc to find the configuration setups. (for example, Anti-mask
Detection, Anti-mask Latched, Detection Range).
Notice!
A description of the configuration setup appears when you select it in the field below the
configuration setup selection.
8.1 Classic/LSNi mode
8.1.1 Classic mode
Classic Mode was first introduced with traditional LSN configuration setups. The address for
the detector is not set by selecting the LSN address switch, but is automatically assigned an
address on the bus by the supporting control panel. The address range is restricted up to a
range of 127.

20 en | Configuration Professional Series TriTech AM Motion Detectors
with Anti-mask, LSN
2018.10 | 01 | F.01U.352.414 Reference Manual Bosch Building Technologies
8.1.2 LSNi mode
Most of the classic features like topology characteristics and initialization order are
transferable to the Neo-Classic (or LSNi) mode. The address assignment command, the
address range and the cable range are different.
The address for the detector is not set by selecting the LSN address switch, but is
automatically assigned an address on the bus by the supporting control panel. The address
range is extended up to 254. Additionally the cable length can be increased up to 3000 m
(9842 ft). Numerous range tests confirm the law of Ohm as main restriction of the bus range.
Therefore, the cable length is dependent on the bus current and the number of installed
network elements.
8.2 Detection range
8 M 25 FT
The detector is designed to work in two different range modes. With the full range (or long
range) mode, both the upper and lower PIR elements operate to provide the rated coverage.
When the detector is set to short-range mode, the upper PIR element is disabled and the
device ignores the microwave Doppler radar signal changes caused by movement in the area
not covered by the PIR.
Both long range and short range modes are configured using remote programming software.
Refer to your remote programming software for detection range information.
Configuration
RPS
Detection range is configured using remote programming software (RPS). The detection range
options show Level 1 through Level 8:
– Level 1-4 stand for short range (0-8 m)
– Level 5-8 for long range
