Detectify
Connected Inventions Detectify is an industry grade passive infrared (PIR)
sensor for movement detection indoors. The device utilises ultra low power two
way radio communications with Sifgfox network technology. The device is battery
powered and with normal usage running default settings, the batteries will last up
to five years. There are two different versions of the device: 90 degree wide
detection angle version (see picture below) for sensing motion in rooms and 30
degree narrow detection angle version (see picture below) for more restricted
areas like work desks. The device can be used for alerting immediately about
movement in space as well as counting movements periodically and
cumulatively.

Picture 2. 30 degree narrow detection angle for more restricted areas.!
Functions
Detectify R3.2 has two modes: Activity mode (AM) and Inactivity mode (IM). In
Inactivity mode, the device waits to detect movement. Once movement is
detected, the mode is changed to Activity Mode, Activity Counter and Cumulative
Activity Counter is incremented and message is sent immediately. While in
Activity mode, the device counts 3 second time slots where movement were
happening and increments counters accordingly. After Activity Reporting Period
(ARP) has been reached, the device will send a message with incremented
counters and starts a new Activity Reporting Period. Still in Activity Mode, in case
no movement was detected until Inactivity Detection period (IDP) was reached,
the last movement counters is sent and the device goes to Inactivity mode. Once
Inactivity Reporting Period (IRP) has been gone without any movement, the
device sends periodical inactivity message.

Assembling and Installation
• Save the identifier and the key of the device.
• The identifier and the PAC key are on the label on the bottom of the device. You
can also read the identifier and the PAC key using the QR code. The picture
below is an example of a label.
Picture 3. Bottom label.
• Use a small screwdriver to slide the power switch to “I” position. Please note
that the switch should slide relatively effortlessly. Do not use excess force to
slide the switch!
Picture 4. Power switch at the bottom of the device.
On
• Install the device to a suitable position to detect movement. Maximum
detection distance is approximately five meters.
• The detection angle of the device is about 30 or 90 degrees depending on the
version.
• You can use direct screw plate (included) or angle joint support (included) for
attaching the device to surface.
Please note! Avoid placing device closer than 15cm on any metal or magnetic
object, electric cables, electric devices or selective glass as this will dramatically
reduce radio performance as well as battery life of the device.
Picture 5. Improper placement for the device!
!
• After attaching the screw plate, place the device to screw plate so that the pins
fall through twist-holes on the bottom of the device and twist clockwise until the
device locks into place.
Picture 6. Attach device to the screw plate by twisting clockwise
•For work desk installation, make sure the hinge of the screw plate is pointing to
metal support structure (if any). Attach the device to screw plate pins so that the
antenna is pointing away from metal structure and twist gently clockwise until
device locks in place. Avoid placing the antenna closer than 15cm to any metal
objects.

Downlink
• Settings of the device can be updated with the downlink message
• Device requests new settings approximately every 24 hours
• You must be very careful when you update the settings
• settings affect both the subscription and the battery life of the device!
• Downlink message is optional
• If any downlink message is not received, device continues with the current settings
• Detection interval and how often messages are sent when the space is available or
occupied can be adjusted with the settings
•Default settings when device has not been configured with downlink:
•"Default activity reporting period is 22minutes
•"When the space is occupied, a message is sent after every activity period with updated counter
values
•"When the space becomes available the status will be sent after Inactivity Detection Period. The
default value is 15minutes.
•"After inactivity message has been sent, the device goes to Inactivity mode: when activity is detected,
status message will be sent immediately with counters increased and activity mode starts
•"Default inactivity reporting period is about eight hours
•After inactivity period has expired without activity detected, the status message is sent without
counters increased and new inactivity period #
starts
•If the power control feature is set on, the device will automatically adjust the
transmit power to optimum level to save battery and create less unnecessary
interference to radio network
•By default power control is OFF
•When power control is OFF, full TX power is used

• Make sure the new settings are valid before applying them!
• In case the new settings are not valid or the DL message is not received, the device
will continue working with the current settings !
Troubleshooting
In case the device is not working properly or not at all:
• Ensure the power is switched on
• Check there is Sigfox network coverage available
• Ensure the device is not installed near metallic objects, electric cables,
electric devices or selective windows
• Metallic roofs, steel reinforced concrete, underground location and
other obstacles can dramatically reduce radio signal
• Check the operation mode of the device
• Incorrect downlink configuration will affect to behaviour of the product
• Ensure the configuration is properly done
