FLAJZAR FISHTRON ALF3 Instruction Manual
Wireless Motion Detector for Fishermen
FISHTRON ALF3
Thank you for purchasing our FISHTRON ALF3 wireless motion detector for fishermen.
We hope you’ll be satisfied.
The portable FISHTRON ALF3 detector is designed for fishermen to detect
the movement of people in a fishing area, equipment, parked car or other
property of a fisherman. Integrated sensors respond to motion and wirelessly
transmit information to the receiver that the fisherman has with him.
The detector contains a shock sensor and two PIR detectors that detect human
movement.
Operation is very simple: one switch at the bottom of the device to turn it on
and off. The device status is indicated by a two-colour LED. Power is
provided by two LR1 batteries.
Although the detector doesn’t have the nature of security equipment for
protecting property and people in terms of European standards, its aim is to
help to reduce crime and the number of thefts that occur not only in our
waters, contributing to greater peace and a feeling of security for our
fishermen.
The detector was developed and manufactured by the Czech company
FLAJZAR.
Detailed Description and Technical Specification:
Sensors
•Two optical PIR sensors, angle of 110° from each side and range of up to 6 m from
each side.
The version contains a shock sensor with digital analysis (protection against false alarms).
Operation
The switch is located at the bottom of the device and has two positions:
•Position towards the screw = off.
•Position ‘outwards’ = on.
LED Signalling
•Green LED = Battery is OK
•Red LED = Battery no longer has the required capacity and needs replacing (there is a several-hour reserve,
but the operation of the device may no longer be reliable)
Attachment of the Detector
At the bottom there is a screw that can be used to attach the alarm either directly to a stand (tripod),
to a suitable thread (mostly midway between fishing rods). Or the alarm can be used screwed in a
classic, separate fishing fork and fastened to the ground where it’s supposed to monitor the place.
It should be placed at least 70 cm above-ground.
Pairing with the Receiver
1. Switch the receiver to learning mode (see the instructions of your receiver type)
2. Turn on the alarm (a signal is sent when turned on that the receiver stores in its memory)
3. From now on, the set is paired and you can evaluate the signal from your wireless motion detector on your
receiver.
The motion detector can be paired with the FISHTRON RX MULTI, FISHTRON RX MINI and FISHTRON RX SIX
receivers. Also with the FISHTRON WRL1 and FISHTRON WRL2 wireless LED lamps.
Stabilization Time
The PIR motion sensors are very sensitive to temperature changes. The detector should be placed somewhere where
it will perform its function, preferably 30 minutes before switching on so that the sensor’s temperature can be adjusted
to the ambient temperature. Otherwise, false alarms will be transmitted after turning it on until the temperature
stabilises if the sensor isn’t thermally stabilised. An interval of approximately 20 seconds is set between the alarms.
Time to Leave the Area
After turning on, the detector is blocked for one minute to allow time to leave the area. During this time the LED on
the device flashes green (if the battery is OK) or flashes red (if the battery needs replacing).
Rain Protection
The detector’s design protects it against normal weather conditions. It is therefore unnecessary to cover it and protect
it against rain under normal conditions.
Power Supply
2 LR1 batteries (commonly used in FLAJZAR bite alarms, available at www.flajzar.com).
The battery is replaced by pushing and ejecting the cover at the back of the detector
where the battery holder is located.
Energy Saving - Maximising Battery Life
The batteries usually last throughout the fishing season with normal use. However, in order to achieve the longest
battery life possible, the detector should be turned off when it isn’t monitoring. When the fisherman normally moves
in space, it isn’t enough just to turn the receiver off, it’s also needed to turn the detector off as it reacts to every motion
in the area and sends information regarding the disturbance. And the unnecessarily frequent, repeating transmitting
discharges the battery.
Transmitting
The detector includes a digital transmitter at 868.35 MHz. The range of the transmitter depends on the conditions in
where the detector is being used. It can be up to several hundred metres in open space, but the range decreases
with every obstacle and terrain inequality. Although it’s a device with very good transmitting parameters and reach,
we recommend verifying the range before using it in a given location.
Declaration of Conformity
The device complies with EU directives and has a Declaration of Conformity.
