the warning is ignored.
Caution
This icon denotes a situation involving the risk of serious injury or even death, if the
warning given is ignored.
Warning
This icon indicates actions to be avoided. Details of the actions to be avoided are written beside or near icon.
This icon indicates instructions that should be strictly followed.
Never use this product for any application except purpose for detecting
moving target such as a human or a car. In addition, never use for any
activation for a shutter or other. It may cause hazards.
Clean and inspect the device periodically for safe operation.
If any defect is detected, ask your local supplier to repair the device.
To avoid the risk of damaging the product, never touch the main body of the
product with wet hands. (Also, if the product is wet after rain do not touch it)
Never attempt to connect the terminals to units which reguire higher power
supply or current draw than its rating. It increases the risk of fire or damage
to the product.
Never attempt to disassemble or modify the product, which increases the risk
of fire or damage of the product.
Avoid applying water in directly from brackets, houses, or otherwise splash-
ing water directly onto the product. It increases the risk of damaging the
product.
Warning
Caution
·Before installation,make sure to read this instruction manual carefully for safe and effective product operation.
·After reading this installation manual, make sure to keep it in a convenient place for future use.
If the sensor is installed with some angle
to the ground, operational reliability of
the sensor may be decreased.
1.INSTALLATION HINTS
Avoid pointing the sensor towards moving
objects (i.e. swaying trees, bushes,
flags,etc.).
If moving objects are unavoidable, please
refer to TROUBLE SHOOTING reference
for proper installation.
1.Perpendicular Installation
Select a place for installing the VX-402R while keeping the following points in mind.
2. Installation height
0.8m-1.2m
VX-402R is designed to protect any light
disturbances.
However , too much light such as; strong
sunlight directed or reflected exactly into the
sensor’s field of view may cause unstable
operation. It is recommended to avid installing
in such a place.
The detection area has directionality.
Mount the detector so that it must be
passed in order to gain entry.
3.Detection Area Setup
Parallel
Install the sensor perpendicular to the
ground to making upper detection area
parallel to the ground.
Installation height is
0.8m-1.2m (2.7ft-4ft)
·Low Current Draw
·Battery Saving Circuit
·Operates on Wide Range of Power
·Back box for a wireless transmitter
·Limited Detection Range Function
·Size Judging Function
·Bright Light Disturbance Immunity
10uA (In Standby).
The alarm circuit will not be activated untill there is a 5 or 120 seconds period of inactivity in the pattern area.
3-9V Alkaline Battery or Lithium Battery.
Backbox can conceal a wireless transmitter circuitboad (W63mm x H140mm x D31mm).
The detection range of the VX-402R can be limited to avoid detecting unwanted objects. By limiting the
detection range, false alarms due to unwanted movement ( i.e. cars, persons or animals outside the
protected area ) can be reduced.
VX-402R is designed to discriminate between large and small animals. By utilizing this ability, false alarms
due to small animals can be reduced.
VX-402R is equipped with Double Conductive Shielding (Patent Listed). This shielding greatly reduces the
chance of false alarms due to car headlights, sunlight and other ambient light sources.

detectio area and sensitivity (See 5 Setting &
Adjustment). Secure the cover with the lock
screw.
Mounting Screw
Fasten the U-brackets on the polw with
the M4 x 30 screws provided. Mount in
accoundance with the wall mounting
procedure.
3-3.Pole Mount
An installation pole with an outside
diameter of 43-48mm (1.66"-)
must be used.
4.WIRING
Mount the mounting brackets on the back
box with tap screws (two places).

box.
(3)Remove the back box.
When using VX-402R and transmitter together, the buttery life will be shortened depending on
the transmitter type (Current Draw). Only the expected battery life of VX-402R is shown in the
following chart. Battery life will change according to the temperature.

5.SETTING & ADJUSTMENTS
Length of Lower Detecion Area decides detection length
The upper detection area stays parallel to the ground at all time. The lower detection area moves as shown above depending on the switch
position. Detection length is therefore limited by the length of lower detection area, since both upper and lower detection area have to be
blocked at the same time to activate the sensor.

Detection
·This product detects temperature differences between the moving object and the background temperature in the detection
area. If the object does not move, the detector can not detect it.
·This product has directional characteristic it is difficult to detect the target that is approaching the detector.
·If there is a traffic near the dettection area, please adjust detectiion 1.5m to 2.0m (5ft to 7ft) away from movements.
IMPORTANT!
As shown above 5-2, there are always 7 active detection fingers. If the area masking plate is not applied, the active fingers
are varied by area adjustment as explained at left.
Please check which fingers are active before applying area masking plate.

1.Turn walk test switch on.

6-1.Sensitivity Adjustment
Sensitivity Select Switch
(L,M,H)
When greater sensitivity is desired, select
"H". When the installation site is poor (bad
conditions) select "L".
VX-402R has a multi-level detection pattern (from side view). A
heat source beyond the detection area may cause the detector to
issue a false alarm by reflecting off the ground. Examples of
reflective ground is water (puddle), wet road, smooth surface
concrete and asphalt road.
1) Please adjust the detection length to
position B. The detection length will be
around 8m (27ft) which is rather shorter
than ideal length but can remove the
chance of false detection.
IMPORTANT!
When the car or person goes near the detection area (a), please adjust the detection area 1.5m to 2m
(5ft to 7ft) shorter than movement area (b) and confirm by walk test. This is because, the actual
detection area may change from 1.5m to 2m (5ft to 7ft) due to the environmental thermal conditions.
The detection area might increase when there is a
big temperature difference between the moving
object and the background.
If the detection length adjusted to position A[12m (40ft)],
there is a possibility to detect the car, depending on the
environmental thermal conditions.

Reflection rate is not 100% of course on the ground, however, if the heat source is strong and / or
reflection rate is high, detection distance will be longer than required and may detect unwanted
objects beyond. Select the detection ground position, according to the ground condition of the
installation site.
