1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Mobeye MiniPir is an all-in-one intruder system with (passive infrared)
movement sensor and an integrated 2G/4G communication module. It
reacts on movements and sends a notification in the event of an alarm. The
alarm system is battery-operated.
In order to activate the device, a few steps are to be followed.
First of all, you need to insert a SIM card. With the Mobeye SIM card, the
Mobeye MiniPir uses the 4G LTE-M network or 2G network. The LTE-M
network has a strong network coverage, deep penetrability in buildings and
also works in remote areas. The Mobeye SIM card is a 'multi-provider' and
can be used internationally; it may choose from several providers per
country. In case of a network problem it will switch to another provider or
fall back to 2G. In addition, the Mobeye SIM card offers access to the
Mobeye Internet Portal. This management environment gives the device
essential functions such as online programming, display of status and
history, extensive possibilities for reporting messages and will also monitor
test messages (keep alive).
Optionally, alarm messages are sent as a push message via an app. The
relevant contact person will receive instructions and an installation link on
their phone.

2. STANDARD BEHAVIOUR
2.1 MOBEYE MINIPIR WITH MOBEYE SIM AND INTERNET PORTAL
The Mobeye MiniPir with Mobeye SIM card and registered on the Mobeye
Internet Portal, has the following behaviour as factory settings:
- When a movement is detected by the passive infrared sensor, the
Mobeye MiniPir sends an alarm message to the Mobeye Internet Portal.
The Portal forwards the alarm as push notification, call (spoken message),
text message and/or e-mail to the ‘alarm contacts’.
- When the batteries need to be replaced, the Mobeye MiniPir sends a
‘low battery’ message to the Mobeye Internet Portal. The portal forwards
this to the ‘service’ contacts.
- The unit will send test messages to the portal as communication check
(default: every 7 days). If these are not received in time, the portal sends
an exception message to the ‘service’ contacts.
- In case one of the additional inputs is activated by a sensor, the Mobeye
MiniPir sends an alarm message via the Mobeye Internet Portal.
- When an external power supply is used and a power failure occurs, the
Mobeye MiniPir sends a ‘power failure’ message via the Mobeye Internet
Portal and after the power is restored a ‘power restored’ message.
Chapter 5 describes how to influence the standard behaviour.
Communication between the Mobeye MiniPir and the Mobeye Internet
Portal takes place via data (and SMS as fallback). Messages can be sent as a
push message to the Mobeye Messages app (via the portal). If a contact
confirms the receipt of the message, the subsequent contacts will not
receive it (alternatively a group message is possible). If the message is not
confirmed (or the app is not used), it can still be sent by call (with spoken
text). SMS and email are also possible. A credit system applies to calling and
SMS texting, the other methods are unlimited. At initialisation and contract
renewal, a starting credit is loaded, which is sufficient for most users. In the
event of a low balance, the account holder will receive an email with the
advice to top up online. The credit balance has an unlimited validity period
and applies to all devices under one account.

3. GETTING STARTED
To get started with the Mobeye MiniPir, at least the following steps need to
be taken in the following order:
1. Open the casing and insert the SIM card
2. Insert the batteries
3. Programming when using the Mobeye SIM/Portal
a. Sign up in the Mobeye Internet Portal
b. Activate the SIM card and the device
c. Program the settings and synchronise
d. Use of the portal and app
4. Optionally: connect additional sensors
5. Optionally: connect an external power supply
Step 5 is described in chapter 4. Step 6 can be found in chapter 0.
3.1 OPEN THE CASING AND INSERT THE SIM CARD
Open the casing by pressing the corners of the front panel with both thumbs.
Insert the SIM card into the module.
The Mobeye SIM card is PIN code secured and will only work in a Mobeye
device. Please do not place it in another device.

7
3.2 INSERT THE BATTERIES
Insert the batteries in the module. Use the +/- indication for the correct
placement. If you replace the batteries the settings will not be deleted, since
they are stored in the device memory.
After placing the SIM card and batteries the Mobeye MiniPir will search for
the network. The outside LED flashes green and red. This process normally
takes 10-30 seconds, in a new device this can take some minutes. When the
network has been established the LED will first blink green rapidly and next
stay green (or flashes 1 sec. on/1 sec. off in case the unit has not been
configured yet).
A time-out occurs after 3 minutes, after which the communication module
switches off in order to save the batteries. It will search for network
connection once it needs to send notifications. It can also been forced to
establish a network connection by re-inserting the batteries or holding the
tag against the reader for 5 seconds.
Close the casing.
3.3 PROGRAMMING
The settings and alarm notifications are prepared in the online Mobeye
Internet Portal. This is explained in chapter 4.

8
3.4 CONNECT A SENSOR TO THE INPUT (OPTIONALLY)
Additional to the PIR sensor two external sensors can be connected to the
inputs.
Insert the 2 wires of an external sensor through
the hole in the casing and insert them in the two
connectors of input 1 (press on the green pins
for connecting the wires). It does not matter
which wire is connected to which connector.
A second sensor may be connected to input 2.
As default the input is programmed as Normally
Open (NO) contact. In case the contact is Normally Closed (NC), see
paragraph 5.5. To change the delay time before triggering an alarm, see
Fout! Verwijzingsbron niet gevonden..
3.5 CONNECT AN EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY (OPTIONALLY)
Although the MiniPir is designed to run on batteries, it is possible to use an
external power supply. In this mode the module is always connected with
the mobile network and therefore always in program mode. When the
power fails, the batteries take over and a power
failure alarm message is sent. The module
continues operating albeit in the low power
mode. This means the communication module
switches off and only establishes network
connection when it needs to send an alarm
notification, test message or low battery alert.
Connect the power adapter (or any other regulated 12-24V DC power
supply) to the power input of the connector (press on the green pins to
connect the wires).
Mobeye adapter 10027 position
- V+ to “+” black lead with white stripe left
- Ground to “-“black lead 2nd from left
If powered externally switching can be done via SMS commands:
SMS command to switch on: CODE ARM (e.g. 1111 ARM)
SMS command to switch off: CODE DISARM (e.g. 1111 DISARM)

4. PROGRAMMING WHEN USING THE MOBEYE SIM AND PORTAL
4.1 SIGN UP IN THE MOBEYE INTERNET PORTAL
Go to www.mymobeye.com
and sign up for a new account.
Follow the instructions on the screen.
You will receive an e-mail to confirm the new account. After confirmation
login on the portal.
If you do not receive this e-mail, please check your spam box or ask Mobeye
([e-mail]).
4.2 REGISTER THE MOBEYE SIM CARD
To activate the Mobeye SIM card in the Mobeye
Internet Portal, choose ‘activate SIM card’ on the ‘Add
Device´ screen.
Fill in the SIM card number. This is the number written
on the plastic SIM card below the barcode. You can
take the entire number or only the last 8 digits.
If the SIM card and batteries are already installed, a pop-up will appear,
where you assign a name and location to the device. You can change these
later.
(If you have not installed the SIM card and batteries before, you will first be
asked to select the device type, in your case it will be “iCM41”.)
At the moment you accept the price and terms, you confirm the
subscription. You will be taken to the payment screen. You will receive an
invoice for the mentioned amount. Your new device is now visible on the
dashboard.
Before the device is ready for use, first prepare the settings and alarm
forwarding. See next paragraphs to learn how to do this.

4.3 CONFIGURATION AND SYNCHRONISATION
The device settings can be programmed in the Mobeye Internet Portal. In
this way you prepare the settings, to be picked up by the device. Since the
Mobeye device is leading in the communication between the portal and the
device, the data synchronisation is done after:
1) any message to the portal (regular test message, alarm,
low batteries).
2) pressing the button for 5 seconds (see image).
3) reinserting/reconnecting all batteries.
During the data exchange with the portal, the LED flashes
green. A battery-operated unit will first blink red-green
while connecting to the network.
4.4 BASICS OF THE MOBEYE INTERNET PORTAL
Dashboard
With multiple devices, the dashboard shows all devices, with the (alarm)
messages in the last 24 hours, (missed) test messages and low battery
status. Select a device to go to the details of a specific device.
Status & History
The status block shows values about the status of the unit.
If the "Synchronised" status is set to "No", there are new settings or alarm
numbers that still need to be transferred to the device.
The network strength value at the last communication session is shown. If
the value is lower than -98 dB, consider another location for the device.
Click on the position icon to see the geographical location during the
last report. Note: this is an indication based on "cell-id".
The history displays all historical events. Click on "all events" to see the list.
Device Settings
The device settings can be changed via the Mobeye Internet Portal. To do
this, click on the "edit" icon and type in the security code (factory setting is
"1111"). See chapter 5 for the description per setting.
After saving the new settings, they must be retrieved by the device
(synchronized). See 4.3 for more information about synchronizing.

11
In the block “device data”the name and location of the device can be
changed. These texts are mentioned in the call, text message and e-mail to
indicate the device. A free text is available as an internal comment field. This
is not included in reports.
Alarm dispatch and the Mobeye app
In the block "Contacts for messages" you link the contact persons who
receive alarm and service messages via push notification, call, text message
and/or e-mail. Service messages can be warnings about missed test
messages and low battery voltage. To add a contact person, first create it as
a contact. This can be done via the +or in the main menu under the blue
Contacts tab. For push notifications, install the Mobeye Messages app
from the Play Store/App Store on the phone.
- Select "App message" for a push notification. A contact will then (once)
receive a code via SMS to register in the app.
- Optionally select "Voice call" as a fallback: If none of the contacts confirm
the app message, a voice call will follow.
- If no app message is set for a contact, but call is set, this call is always
made (regardless of whether other contacts receive push notifications).
- If SMS and/or email is set up for a contact, this is always sent (possibly
alongside the app message).
- An app message can be sent as a group message (to all contacts at once)
or via an escalation plan (where a "confirmation" prevents the app
message from being forwarded to a next contact).
- When selecting "Escalation", adjust the order with the arrows ▲ and ▼.
Hints:
- Always include an email contact for service notifications.
- During testing, we recommend using the app and email (and minimizing
calls and texts) to save on credit.
- If the app asks for a new code or a contact has a new phone, send it from
the contacts tab (change contact).
Message texts
The texts in the calls, SMS and e-mail messages consist of the name,
location and message text. The message texts can be adapted to your own
text.

4.5 HOW TO ACTIVATE THE MOBEYE MINIPIR
After set-up the module is ready for use. Use the supplied tags or schedules
(see 5.6) to switch on and off.
In order to switch on (arm) the Mobeye MiniPir:
- Hold a tag briefly against the tag reader, after
which the exit indication starts. The exit time takes
30 seconds.
In order to switch off (disarm) the Mobeye MiniPir:
- Hold a tag briefly against the tag reader. A short beeps are heard to
indicate a correct disarming. The disarming process is completed when
you hear 3 short beeps.
In the disarmed status the Mobeye MiniPir will not send alarm notifications.
The unit remains active and is able to switch on time-controlled and to send
test and 'low battery voltage' messages.
4.6 SYSTEM RESET
To reset the Mobeye MiniPir two steps are necessary, in following sequence:
1. Delete the Mobeye MiniPir from the Mobeye Internet Portal
Go to "Device Settings" and click on the delete icon in the "Device" block.
Then confirm your choice.
2. Reset the Mobeye MiniPir to its factory settings
1. Remove / disconnect the batteries.
2. Keep (an enrolled) tag against the outside button while reinserting the
batteries. Keep it pressed for (about) another 5 seconds.
3. Release the tag immediately after the LED starts to flash.
4. Re-enroll the tags (see chapter 6).
After a successful reset, the outside LED will blink green to indicate that the
module is not configured.
The SIM card is now disconnected and is visible on the "Add device" screen.
The SIM card can be used again in another (or the same) Mobeye device in
combination with the portal.

13
5. POSSIBLE SETTINGS
The Mobeye MiniPir has many setting options that influence the behaviour
of the module. If connected on the Mobeye Internet Portal, the settings are
prepared in the portal (see chapter 4). If your own SIM card is used,
programming is done via SMS commands (see chapter Fout!
Verwijzingsbron niet gevonden.).
5.1 ALARM FORWARDING
An alarm is sent by the device to the portal, from where it will be forwarded
to the alarm contacts. In the Mobeye Internet Portal, under “alarm
messages” an unlimited number of contact persons can be set.
5.2 TEST MESSAGE
The Mobeye MiniPir can send regular test messages (keep alive) to the
Mobeye Internet Portal, to ensure the proper functioning of the unit. The
test message will also be sent if the unit is disarmed. The Mobeye Internet
Portal expects the test message and checks the timely receipt. The
monitoring of the test messages follows the ‘management by exception’
rule: only if the message was not received, the ‘service’ contacts will receive
a notification.
The timing of the test message can be programmed. Since new settings
(options) will be synchronised after the test message, setting a specific time
of the test message may help the process of remote programming. Example:
if you force a daily test message at 17.30 hrs, you can prepare new settings
and be sure they are loaded into the device before the evening.
The interval between the test messages can be set between 0 days (no test
message) and 30 days. The default test interval is set to "7" (weekly).
5.3 ENTRY DELAY TIME
The entry delay time defines the time from the detection of a movement
until an alarm is initiated. If the Mobeye MiniPir is switched off within the
entry delay time, the message will not be sent.
After the entry delay time the network connection needs to be set up, which
makes the receipt time slightly longer. As default, the entry delay time is set
to 15 seconds.

14
5.4 EXIT DELAY TIME
The exit delay time defines the time between the moment of switching on
the module and the moment the module is able to send the first alarm
message. The time can be set between 0 and 999 seconds. As default, the
exit delay time is set to 30 seconds.
5.5 INACTIVE TIME
The “inactive time” defines the time the PIR senor (or extra input) is not
active after an activation. During the inactive time, no new alarm message
will be sent. The time can be set between 0 and 60 minutes. As default, the
inactive time is set to “5”for the PIR sensor (“0”for the extra inputs).
5.6 AUTOMATIC ARMING / DISARMING
The Mobeye MiniPir only works if the unit is armed, which is done via the
on/off button. It is possible to automatically arm and disarm the unit, based
on an arming and/or disarming time scheme. Two schemes can be entered,
which can be assigned to the days in the week (e.g. to have a different
weekend scheme).
As default the automatic (dis) arming times are valid for all days. It is
possible to assign them to only a few days in the week. In this way it is
possible to have two different schemes, which are valid on different days.
As value the weekdays can be entered. Monday is 1, Tuesday is 2, etc. If the
scheme is valid for several days, the days can be set in a row (e.g. 12345
means Monday till Friday).
Example: to arm the system only during weekdays, from 6AM to 7PM, set
the TIMEARM1 to 06:00, TIMEDISARM1 to 19:00 and DAYS1 to 12345.
5.7 INPUT TYPE
The input type defines the character of the additional inputs IN1 and IN2.
This can be Normally Open (NO) or Normally Closed (NC). If an input is set
to "NO", the alarm will be triggered as soon as the terminals of the input are
closed. If the input is set to NC, the alarm is triggered when the connection
between the input terminals is broken. The default input type is set to "NO".

15
5.8 POWER FAILURE MESSAGE
If the Mobeye MiniPir is supplied with external power and the power fails, it
can send alarm messages. If the setting is "OFF", no message is sent. In the
default setting “ALARM”, notifications are sent to the set contacts.
5.9 POWER FAILURE DELAY TIME
To avoid false alarms caused by short power failures, a power failure delay
time can be set. This defines the time between the initial power failure and
the alarm notification. If the power is restored within the delay time, no
alarm is sent. The time can be set between 0 and 999 minutes. As default,
the delay time is set to "0".
5.1 NOTIFICATION TO PRIVATE EMERGENCY CENTER
The Mobeye MiniPir can send the reports to a control room using the
standard SIA DC09 protocol. This requires the use of the Mobeye
SIM/Portal. Contact Mobeye for information.

16
6. ENROLMENT OF NEW TAGS
Tags are used for switching on and off and to enter the program mode. The
supplied tags are already enrolled and therefore ready-to-use. If additional
tags are provided, they must be enrolled by the user. To enrol a new tag,
the device should be in program mode (see Fout! Verwijzingsbron niet
gevonden.). Once in program mode, send following SMS command to the
device’s phone number to reach the enrolment mode:
SMS command to switch to the tag enrolment mode:
CODE TAG
example: 1111 TAG
mind the space between the installation code and TAG
A short melody confirms the correct command and indicates the tag
enrolment mode. The tag reader turns red (for 15 seconds).
Now hold a new tag to the tag reader at the bottom of the detector. The
detector confirms the successful enrolment of the new tag by beeps. The
number of beeps represents the tag number (the first tag beeps once, the
second tag twice, etc.). If a tag was enrolled before, the beeps will sound to
indicate the tag number; it will not re-enrol.
The detector leaves the enrolment mode if no tag was hold against the tag
reader for 15 seconds.
A tag can be enrolled on multiple Mobeye MiniPirs, allowing it to operate
multiple devices. 25 tags can be enrolled per device.
To delete a certain tag, first check the memory position by the enrolment
procedure. Once in program mode, send following SMS command to the
telephone number in the device to delete a tag:
SMS command to delete tag x (replace x by the number of the tag):
CODE DELTAG3
example: 1111 DELTAG3
mind the space between the code and TAG
