Press firmly with a screwdriver to
open.Enlarge the hole according
to size of wire.
LED Enabled Connect D.L. terminal to common ground(with detector).
LED Disabled No ground to D.L. terminal (open circuit).
Avoid
Curtain,Screen,etc.
blocking detection area.
Avoid vapor or high
humidity that can cause
condensation.
Avoid direct sunlight. Do not install outdoors.
Do not aim towards outside areas where there is
frequent movement.
Do not mount in unstable location
where vibration or shock may
affect the detector.
Do not install unit near
fluorescent lights.
Avoid mounting detector where
movement of Fans or Air
Conditioning can be detected.
Do not aim detection area
towards equipment which
continually moves in the
detection area (i.e.curtain,
blinds).

1. Pet Immunity is most effective on the following sized
animals:Rodents = 0 to 4 inches high
Cats and small to medium sized dogs = 0 to 16inches
high at normal room temperature.
2. Installation Instructions
a. Mount between 7and 8 ft. (For better immunity,
especially for medium sized dogs, mount as close
to8ft. as possible.)
b. Do not angle detector towards the ground or use the
angle bracket. Mount flat on the wall or in the corner.
c. For best pet immunity, limit the detectors field of view
to30 ft. maximum in any direction.
d. For rodents
If any shelves within 15 ft.of the detector have a
height that comes wihtin 2.5 ft.below the mounting
height of the detector and rodents can access these
areas, pet immunity will be reduced. Please select
mounting location of detectors carefully to avoid this
situation.
e. For cats and dogs (16inches in height or less at
normalroom temperature) When a dog jumps up on
desks, the detector may detect it. Adjust detection
area to avoid such places.
f. For cats
If there are cats, any shelves in the detection area will
reduce pet immunity.
g. Pulse Count 4 is not required for Pet Immunity
applications.Use 4 pulse only in harsh environment.
Power wires should not exceed
the following lengths.
When using two or more units on one wire, the
maximum length is obtained by dividing the maximum
wire length listed above by the number of units used.
PROBLEM REMEDYPROBABLECAUSE
Correct the voltage supply to 9.5-16VDC .
LED does not light. See Section 3.
Turn on the Switch. (See Section 2 )
Incorrect power supply voltage.(disconnection, low voltage)
Incorrect detection area.
LED switch is OFF.
Moving object within area. (curtain,wall hanging, etc.)
LED lights even though no
person is within area. Remove the source from area, or change location of detector.

Rapid temperature changes within area.(heater,air-conditioner, etc.)
7. TROUBLE SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
8. SPECIFICATIONS
Faulty wiring. Wire correctly.
Check load of output.
The unit needs repair or replacement.
LED lights but signal is not sent. Relay contact is stuck or damaged due to overloading.
6. WIRING
*UL requires MX-40QZ,50QZ,40PI,40PT to be
connected to a UL listed power supply capable of
providing a nominal input of 12VDC , 20mA(max.)
(at 12VDC )and battery standby time of 4 hours.
*The equipment shall be installed in accordance with
the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70.
*These features have been tested by Underwriters
Laboratories.

required, refer to Section 5.When using a
bracket,check matching knockout positionbefore
opening mounting hole.
d.Wire according to Section 6.
e.Fix P.C.B.unit into base. Supply power. Allow 1
min. to warm up.
f.Conduct walktest and make adjustments.
(Section 2) Fit cover using fastening screw.
