MOUNTING YOUR PIR-4000
NOTE: For maximum wireless range between the motion detector and receiver, avoid mounting
the sensor on a metal object. Although the maximum wireless range is about one mile, obstruc-
tions such as hills, trees, metal siding and stucco can reduce that range.
1. Select a location to mount the motion detector. For best results mount the sensor on
a wall about 7’ o the ground and pointing down slightly at the area to be monitored.
Avoid pointing towards things that might move such as curtains in the wind.
2. Use a drill and the included screws to mount the swivel bracket.
3. Slide the transmitter down onto the bracket.
