2.0 Installation Considerations
NOTE: The DS860 is not recommended for installations
containing pets or small animals. Use the DS820 or
DS835 for such installations.
•Never install the detector in an environment that causes an
alarm condition in one technology. Good installations start with
the LED OFF when there is no target motion. It should never be
left to operate with the tri-color LED in a constant or intermittent
green, yellow, or red condition.
• Point the unit away from outside traffic (roads/alleys).
NOTE: Microwave energy will pass through glass and most
common non-metallic construction walls.
• 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.
• Eliminate interference from nearby outside sources.
3.0 Mounting
• Select a location likely to intercept an intruder moving across
the coverage pattern. The surface should be solid and
vibration-free. Mounting height range is 6 to 8 ft. (1.8 to
2.4 m). Recommended mounting height is 7.5 ft. (2.3 m).
• Remove the cover. Insert a flathead screwdriver into the locking
tab hole at the bottom front of the detector. Pull the cover up
and forward.

• Terminals 1 (–) & 2 (+): Voltage limits are 9 to 15 VDC. Use no
smaller than #22 AWG (0.8 mm) wire pair between the detector
and the power source.
• Terminals 3 & 4: Alarm relay (reed) contacts rated 3 watts,
125 mA, 28 VDC maximum for DC resistive loads and
protected by a 4.7 ohm, 0.5 watt resistor.
NOTE: Do not use with capacitive or inductive loads.
• Terminals 5 and 8: Spare.
• Terminals 6 & 7: Tamper contacts rated at 28 VDC, 125 mA.
NOTE: Plug the wire entrance hole with the foam plug provided
after all wiring connections have been made.
5.0 LED Operation
The detector uses a tri-color LED to indicate the various alarm and
supervision trouble conditions that may exist. See chart below.
LED Cause
Steady red Unit alarm
Steady yellow Microwave activation
(walk test)
Steady green PIR activation (walk test)
Flashing red Warm-up period
after power-up
Flashing red (4 pulse sequence) Replace Unit
If the detector experiences a Microwave or PIR
self-test failure, it is in need of replacement.
NOTE: During walk testing, the LED will light for the first
technology (microwave or PIR) and then light red to
indicate a detector alarm. The LED will not indicate
activation of the second technology by lighting its color.
6.0 Feature Selection
6.1 LED On/Off Pins
The ON position allows operation of the tri-color LED. If LED
indication is not desired after setup and walk tests are completed,
place in the OFF position. The OFF position does not prevent the
LED from indicating supervision trouble conditions.
6.2 PIR Sensitivity Selection Pins
For selection, place the plug across the pins
marked STD for Standard or INT for
Intermediate mode.
• Standard Sensitivity: The recommended setting for maximum
false alarm immunity. Tolerates environmental extremes on
this setting.
•Intermediate Sensitivity: The recommended setting for any
location where an intruder is expected to cover only a small
portion of the protected area. Tolerates normal environments
on this setting. This setting will improve your intruder catch
performance.
7.0 Set-up and Walk Tests
Select the vertical starting angle from this chart:
To adjust the
vertical starting
angle for the
desired
mounting height
and range,
loosen the
vertical adjust
screw and slide
the board up, to
point the angle down. Note the settings on the vertical adjust scale.
• Place the LED plug in the ON position and replace the cover.
7.1 Establishing PIR Pattern Coverage
• Turn the Microwave range adjust to minimum.
• Replace the cover and snap it into place. This will close the
tamper switch.
•Wait two minutes minimum after applying power to start walk
tests.
NOTE: During the warm-up period, the tri-color LED will flash red
until the unit has stabilized (approximately 1 to 2 minutes)
and has seen no movement for two seconds. When the
tri-color LED stops flashing, the detector is ready to be
tested. With no motion in the protection area, the tri-color
LED should be OFF. If the LED is on, re-check the
protection area for disturbances affecting the microwave
or PIR technologies.
• Walk test across the pattern at its farthest edge, then several
times closer to the detector. Start walking from outside of the
intended protection area, and observe the tri-color LED. The
edge of the pattern is determined by the first green, PIR
activation of the LED (or the first red activation if the yellow
microwave LED activates first).
• Walk test from the opposite direction to determine both
boundaries. The center of the pattern should be pointed
toward the center of the intended protection area.
NOTE: The pattern may be moved ±10° horizontally by rotating the
lens window left or right.
• Slowly bring your arm up and into the pattern to mark the lower
boundary on PIR alarm. Perform this task at 10 to 20 ft. (3 to 6
m) from the unit. Repeat from above for the upper boundary.
The center of the pattern should not be tilted upward.

NOTE: If desired coverage cannot be achieved, try angling the
coverage pattern up or down to assure the pattern is not
aimed too high or low. The angle of the PIR pattern may be
vertically positioned between -10° and +2° by loosening
the Vertical Adjust screw and sliding the circuit board up or
down. Moving the board up will angle the pattern
downward.
• Tighten the screw snug when positioning is completed.
7.2 Establishing Microwave Coverage
NOTE: It is important to wait one minute after removing/replacing
the cover so the microwave portion of the detector can
settle, and to wait at least ten seconds between the
following walk testing procedures.
• The tri-color LED should be OFF before walk testing.
• Walk test across the pattern at the intended coverage’s
farthest end. Start walking from outside the intended
protection area and observe the tri-color LED. The edge of the
microwave pattern is determined by the first yellow, microwave
activation of the LED (or the first red activation if the green PIR
LED activates first).
• If adequate range can not be reached, increase the Microwave
Range Adjust slightly. Continue walk testing (waiting one
minute after removing/replacing the cover) and adjusting the
range until the farthest edge of desired coverage has been
accurately placed.
NOTE: Do not adjust the microwave range higher than required.
Doing so will enable the detector to catch movement
outside of the intended coverage pattern.
• Walk test the unit from all directions to determine all the
Microwave pattern boundaries. Wait at least ten seconds
between walk tests.
7.3 Establishing Detector Coverage
• The tri-color LED should be OFF before walk testing.
• Walk test the unit from all directions to determine the detection
boundaries. A detector alarm is signaled by the first red
activation of the tri-color LED after an initial green or yellow
activation.
8.0 Supervision Features
The supervision features function as follows:
•PIR/Microwave: The complete circuit operation of these
subsystems is checked approximately every 24 hours. If the
PIR or MW subsystem fails, the tri-color LED will flash red 4
times per cycle and the unit should be replaced.
•Default: If the microwave subsystem fails, the detector will
default to PIR technology protection. The PIR signal sensitivity
will automatically change from INT to STD.
9.0 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.
10.0 Coverage Patterns
The DS860 has a standard broad coverage pattern or an optional
long-range coverage pattern. The protected coverage area is where
the microwave and PIR patterns overlap.
An optional Look Down lens is located under the detector. This
lens must be unmasked before it is operational. Use caution to
remove the black mask only. Do not attempt to remove the white
lens assembly. The Look Down lens is not recommended for
installations containing pets or small animals. The Look Down
zone is shown in black on the Coverage Pattern drawings.
