Figure 4 Changing the Lens
WIRING
Terminals TB1 and TB2 (MC-550T only) are located at the top edge of
the PCB. Wire the MC-550 / MC-550T as shown in Figure 3 using 14-
22 AWG wire. After the wiring is complete, push as much of the wire
as possible back into the wall.
®
For proper wiring methods, refer to the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70.
To install the optional pet-alley lens*:
• Remove the front cover of the
MC-550 / MC-550T. (See Fig-
ure 1.)
• Press up on the Bug Guard
latch and then pull the Bug
Guard out of the front cover.
• Removetheexistinglens,and
place the new lens in with the
SMOOTHsidefacingoutward.
• Install the lens with the small
slot at the top and the large
slot at the bottom.

Note: Do not mount the unit at 10 feet / 3 m when using the low
sensitivity setting.

The MC-550 / MC-550T is designed for use indoors. Make sure the
sensor has a clear line-of-sight to the protected area. Infrared energy
cannot penetrate solid objects. If the sensor is blocked, it will not
alarm.
Aim the sensor toward the interior of the room, away from windows
and heating/cooling sources. The unit can be corner or wall mounted
at either 4' / 1.2 m, 7'6" / 2.3 m, or 10' / 3 m (see Range Chart on
the next page).
MOUNTING LOCATION
Falsealarmimmunityfrom smallanimals withthe MC-550/550Tcan
be expected in installations with:
Any number of cats (or similar sized animals)*
Any number of birds, confined to a cage
Birds flying randomly though a warehouse setting
Any number of rats*
*The total weight of animals cannot exceed 15 pounds / 7 Kg.
For false alarm immunity with the above mentioned animals the
following installation procedures must be observed:
•Use the standard wide angle lens optics
•Mount the sensor at 7'6" or 10' / 2.3 or 3 m
•Set the PIR pulse count at normal (PC3) or low (PC4)
•Make sure no animal(s) can get within 6' / 1.9 m in the sensor's
direct line-of-sight.
MOUNTING PROCEDURE
Prepare the sensor for mounting
by removing the front cover and
printed circuit board (PCB).
To remove the front cover of
the sensor, use a screwdriver
to slide into the latch release
slot located at the top of the
unit and then gently push up.
(See Figure 1.)
To remove the PCB, press
the latch holding the PCB in
place and gently pull up on
the PCB until it releases.
(See Figure 2.)
Using the rear housing
as a template, mark
mountingandwireaccess
locations. Pull several
inches of wire into the
housing and fasten the
rear housing to the wall.

Ongoing self-test occurs every twenty-four hours. If a self-test fails, it retests
everyfive minutes. Ongoingself-test does notflash theLED unless thereis a
failure.Powerupanduserinitiatedself-testsbothperformthesamefunctions.
To perform a user initiated self-test, short the two self-test pads (refer to
Figure 5).
The LED flashes once per second during the power up and user initiated
self- test. If the unit fails any self-test, it will continue to flash the LED once
per second.
SELF-TEST
To disable the alarm LED (DS1) after walk-testing the sensor, remove the
jumper from position J3 on the PCB. See Figure 5.

Important: For UL certificated installation, the MC-550 / MC-550T
must be connected to a UL listed power supply or UL listed control
unit capable of providing a minimum of four hours of standby
power.
This device has been tested to compliance with the EMC Directive
89/336/EECfor Residential, Commercial and Light Industry
applications, according to standards EN50081-1 and EN50082-1.
IC Notice: This Class B digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Canadian Interference-
Causing Equipment Regulations.
Cet appareil numérique de la Classe B respecte toutes les exigences du Règlement sur le matériel
brouilleur du Canada.
FCC Notice: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
userisencouragedtotrytocorrect the interference by one or moreofthefollowingmeasures:1)Reorient or relocate the
receiving antenna, 2) Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver, 3) Connect the equipment into an
outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. The installer can also consult an experienced
radio/television technician for additional suggestions, if necessary.
WALK-TEST
Applypowertotheunit. Thepowerupself-testtakes3.7minutes. TheLED
flashes during power up self-test. Begin walk-testing when the alarm LED
(DS1)goes out. (The unit isin the zone finder mode forthe first 10 minutes.)
Walkacrosstheprotectedareaattherangestobecovered. Twotofournormal
stepsacrossthepatternshouldmakethealarmLEDlight. Waitforthealarm
LED to go out, then continue walk-testing. When there is no motion in the
protectedarea, the alarm LEDshould be off.
ZONE FINDER
Thesensorwill entera10 minutezonefinder modeaftera successfulpower
up diagnostics test or a user initiated test. Either one of these tests takes
approximately3.7minutes.
Whilein thezonefinder mode,the installer candetermine the preciseprotec-
tion pattern by further walk-testing the unit. The alarm LED will activate
every time a zone edge is crossed.
Important: The MC-550 / MC-550T should be tested at least once each
year to ensure proper operation.
The information in this manual has been revised. For
your convenience, dashed lines were added in the
