8. Installation
a) General notes on installation
• The coverage lenses of the ‘FS20 PIRI’ are
supplied with three detection levels with 11
upper, 8 middle and 5 lower segments.
This enables a detection angle of 90° to be
achieved at a range of up to 8m. The figure on
the right shows the detection angle.
Please be aware that the detection angle is
determined by the installation height of the
motiondetector,as well asthe adjustment ofthe
lens opening.
The figure to the right is only an example.
The detection area can be customised to the
specific conditions of each location due to the
flexibility of the circuit board in the inner hous-
ing. More detailed information can be found in
section ‘Function test’, see 11. b)
• For additional security, the FS20 PIRI is equipped with so-called ‘creep zone’ protection.
In order to prevent anything from avoiding the detection area of the main lens; there is an
additional integrated ‘look-down’ lens set at downward angle of 30°.
• In order to avoid unnecessary activation by household pets, keep them away from
protected areas when possible. If this is not possible, try with the help of the highly variable
settings to appropriately adjust the device (see ‘Function test’).
Cover the creep zone protection or individual lenses when necessary. Black insulating tape
can be used for this, which is attached to the inside of the lens. Please remember that
household pets may also jump on, for instance, cabinets or chairs and in so doing, arrive
in the detection area and activate the motion detector.
• Select an appropriate installation location dependent upon the circumstances at a height
of approx. 1.8m to 2m.

• The motion detector may not be exposed to direct sunlight, car headlamps or similar. In
addition, the device may not be installed near a heat source (for instance, above a heater).
The motion detector can be disturbed by the heat source, and in addition the
sensitivity is reduced by rising environmental temperatures.
• The detection area should be aimed at a wall or on the floor, but not directly on windows,
heaters or sources of heat.
• The performance of the detection is dependent upon the temperature difference between
the moving object and the respective background.
• Detection through glass is not possible.
• Please remember not to install the motion detector directly on or near large metal objects
(heating, aluminium laminated board walls, for example, in prefabricated housing) because
this reduces the wireless range.
b) Installing the FS20 PIRI
The motion detector is equipped with a wall bracket. This permits the following installation
angles: 0° (parallel to the wall), -45°, +45°.
Therefore, wall installation is possible at different angles, as well as in corners.
Alternatively, without the wall bracket, the motion detector can be mounted
flush with the wall (0°).
Installation with wall bracket:
• Remove the wall bracket from the device (pull it off from under the device and then hang
it out).
• Mark with the help of the holes in the wall bracket the appropriate drilling locations on the
wall and drill (depending on wall) the required holes (diameter 6mm)
When drilling, be careful not to mistakenly damage any power supply lines
or gas or water pipes, as it may be life-threatening!
• Attach the wall bracket with the included dowels, tighten the screws and hang the motion
detector on the wall bracket.

12
Installation without wall bracket
• Remove the wall bracket from the device (pull it off from under the device and then hang
it out).
• The wall installation is completed with two screws. The motion detector is hung with the wall
bracket guideway on the upper screw. The second, lower screw is guided from the inside
through the hole in the bottom of the housing.
• Mark the location for the upper screw and drill the hole (6 mm).
When drilling, be careful not to mistakenly damage any power supply lines
or gas or water pipes, as it may be life-threatening!
After positioning the dowel, tighten the screw until the distance between the screw head
and the wall is approx. 3mm.
• Carefully open the catch on the side (left) of the housing with a fingernail, ball-point pen or
suitable screwdriver by pushing inward until the half shell of the motion detector comes
apart. Do not use force, otherwise the housing of the motion detector will be damaged!
• Hang the motion detector on the already installed screw and
align it vertically.
• Mark the position for the lower drill hole through the hole for the
lower screw, see picture to the right.
Should these be hidden by the small circuit board (see drawing,
position A), loosen the two screws that hold the large circuit
board in place and slide the large circuit board upward. Do no
bend the small circuit board! Do not bend any components!
• Remove the motion detector from the wall and drill the hole (as
with the first hole, be aware of power, gas, water lines!).
• After positioning the dowel, hang the motion detector on the
wall again and firmly attach it to the wall from the inside with the
help of the second screw.
• If you moved the circuit board earlier, reattach it in its original
location.
•The housing remains open.

9. Inserting/replacing batteries
• If the housing is not yet open, carefully press the catch on the
side (left) inwards until both half shells of the motion detector
separate from each another.
Use a fingernail, a ball-point pen or an appropriate screw-
driver to help.
Do not use force, otherwise the housing of the motion detec-
tor will be damaged!
• Insert three AA batteries with the correct polarity, see image
to the right. The positive polarity must point upwards.
If possible, use alkaline batteries.
The use of rechargeable batteries is possible,
however the wireless range and the battery life
may be greatly reduced.
Do not bend any components!
•If you are installing the device for the first time, leave the housing open for the time
being, as the motion detector must be programmed.
Otherwise, close the housing until the two halves audibly lock into place.
When you notice that switching operations no longer are carried out, check the
batteries and, if necessary, replace with a complete set of new batteries.

11. Initial operation
a) Quick installation with factory settings
The motion detector is immediately ready for operation with the factory settings described in
section 5. Upon insertion of the batteries, its transmission signals are assigned a random
encrypted house code and the address group 11 (activation of several receivers with one
transmitter possible).
For the initial operation of the transmission path to the receiver, the house code
and the addresses must first be transmitted to the receiver.
To do so, proceed as follows:
• First, set your receiver, based on the operating instructions of your particular receiver, in
the address programming mode.
• Press the button ‘o’ (for channel 2: button ‘q’) on the keypad of the motion detector.
Please note:
Channel 2 is deactivated when delivered (‘Off’).
• The status LED on the receiver goes out.
• Test the switch function. To do this, press the button ‘o’ or ‘n’ for channel 1 (for channel
2: button ‘q’ or ‘p’) on the keypad of the motion detector. The receiver should thereby
switch on or off.
Now the motion detector is ready for operation with the factory settings.
• If you do not wish to set any further individual preferences, close the housing.
Please ensure that the side catches close with an audible clicking sound and
that the housing is securely closed.

16
b) Function test
You can adjust the detection area of the motion detector and thereby customise
it for your individual needs.
Proceed as follows:
• Approach the motion detector by crossing back and forth across the detection area.
• When the motion detector detects you, it activates the status LED and the corresponding
receiver.
• If you would like to optimise the detection area, open the housing by unlocking the catches
on the side (use a fingernail, ball-point pen or suitable screwdriver); do not use force.
• Loosen the upper and lower circuit board attachment screws (see section 10) and carefully
slide the circuit board.
ySlide upward: Larger detection area
zSlide downward: Smaller detection area, narrower creep zone protection
• To reduce the detection area, cover additional portions of the lens with black insulating tape
from the inside.
• When you have attained the desired detection area, carefully tighten the circuit board
attachment screws (do not over tighten!) and close the housing.

12. FS20 address system basics
The FS20 wireless control system operates with a ‘house code’. This means that your
neighbour can also use the same wireless control system and the two systems will not interfere
with each other (provided that the house code has been programmed differently).
256 different addresses can be set within a house code. These addresses are divided into four
address types (available number is in brackets):
• Single addresses (225)
• Function group addresses (15)
• Local master addresses (15)
• Global master address (1)
One address from each address type can be assigned to each receiver. This means that each
receiver can respond to up to four different addresses, but only ever to one address per
address type. If you need a receiver to respond to more than one transmitter, you can program
the transmitters to the same address or, if different transmitter address types have been set,
you can program the receiver consecutively to these different addresses.
The individual address types have the following function:
• Single addresses
Each receiver should be set to a single address so that it can be controlled separately.
• Function group addresses
Several receivers are defined as a functional unit by being assigned to a function group
address. If, for example, all the lamps in a house are assigned to a function group, then all
the lamps in the entire house can be switched on or off by pressing one button.
• Local master addresses
Several receivers are spatially defined as one unit and controlled via the local master
address. If, for example, all the receivers in a room are each allocated to a local master
address, then all you need to do is press one button when leaving the room to switch off
all the consumer loads in the room.
• Global master address
Several receivers are assigned to the global master address and are jointly controlled via
this address. All the consumer loads can easily be switched off simply by pressing one
single button when leaving a house, for example.

18
Please refer to the example in section 11. c).
This address system opens up a variety of possibilities. For example, you can even implement
access authorisations by assigning three garage doors to different single addresses and a joint
function group (‘garage doors’).
Several people can then each be given a hand-held transmitter with a relevant single address
for one garage door, while all the garage doors can be opened via a hand-held transmitter with
a programmed function group address, or all the doors can be automatically closed in the
evening via an FS20 timer.
The various address types and addresses are only set on the transmitter
and these settings are transmitted to the receivers via the address
assignment. A receiver must be in programming mode in order for this
address assignment to take place.

19
13. Integrating the motion detector
into the address system, programming
The house code, an address group and a subaddress are used for coding the motion detector
and its switching channels. It is also possible with special address group assignments to
program the motion detector as a local or global master.
To enter the eight-digit house code, the two-digit address groups and the two-
digit subaddresses, the ‘n’, ‘o’, ‘p’ and ‘q’ buttons are used (see image
in section 10).
This addressing allows for 225 single addresses, 15 function groups, 15 local master
addresses and 1 global master address available within each house code to the motion
detector.
a) Setting the house code
After inserting the batteries, the motion detector selects a random house code (same for both
channels).
If required, this house code can be changed as follows:
• Keep the buttons ‘n’ and ‘p’ on the motion
detector pressed for 5 seconds until the LED
begins slowly to blink (about once per second).
• Now use the ‘n’, ‘o’, ‘p’ and ‘q’ buttons
to enter the eight-digit house code of your
system.
This must be identical for all the remote control
transmitters in the FS20 wireless control sys-
tem (as a precaution, make a note of this code
and keep it safe).
Example: 23141342 (1= button ‘n’, 2= but-
ton ‘o’, 3= button ‘p’, 4= button ‘q’)
• The programming mode ends automatically
once you have entered the eighth digit. The
LED goes out.

b) Setting the addresses
A channel’s address is comprised of a two-digit address group and a two-digit subaddress (for
example, 1131, address group 11, subaddress 31).
The address group ‘11’ is factory set for all channels.
If several transmitters are to be operated at the same time and control different receivers, then
different addresses need to be set on the transmitters.
The following address combinations (address groups/subaddresses) on the motion detector
are factory set:
Button combination: 1 2
Address: 11 11 11 12
To set a single address (address group/subaddress), proceed as follows:
• Keep the buttons ‘n’ and ‘o’ on the motion
detector pressed for 5 seconds, until the LED
begins to blink slowly (about once per second).
• Now enter a two-digit address group and a
two-digit subaddress using the ‘n’, ‘o’, ‘p’
and ‘q’ buttons.
Example: 1431 Address group 14
Subaddress 31
• The programming mode ends automatically
once you have entered the fourth digit. The
LED goes out.
