AC ADAPTOR
The motion sensor uses a 4.5V AC / DC adaptor (not
included).
The motion sensor adaptor can be inserted into the
socket as shown below:
The motion sensor has a Power ON / OFF
switch to help conserve energy. Use the AC adaptor
when using the motion sensor for long periods of time.
The batteries are a good power source for back-up use.
MOTION SENSOR
The motion sensor has a security / monitoring function.
It can set off your motion alarm on the clock for 5 minutes
and turn the backlight on for 10 seconds when it detects
movement.
NOTE
• Press RESET after each battery change.
• The LED indicator on the motion sensor will flash
in red when the batteries are low.
Do not use rechargeable batteries for the clock
or remote motion sensor.
It is recommended that you use alkaline
batteries with this product for longer performance.
NOTE
NOTE
BATTERIES
The motion sensor uses:
• 3 x UM-3 / AA 1.5V batteries.
To install the batteries, simply insert them making sure
they match the correct polarities (+ and -).

SETUP SENSOR
1. Install the batteries.
2. Set the channel by sliding the CHANNEL switch to
1 or 2. The switch is located in the battery
compartment.
3. Set the Code by sliding the CODE switches to the
same setting as the Code on the clock display. This
enables the clock and motion sensor to interact with
each other.
4. Press the RESET button. Close the motion sensor
battery compartment.
5. Secure the sensor in the desired location using the
wall mount or table stand.
. Twist the rotary motion sensor knob to direct the
sensor to the position you want.
7. Slide the POWER ON / OFF switch to turn the motion
sensor ON or OFF.
8. Slide the ALARM SOUND ON / OFF switch to ON to
activate the alarm sound function. The motion sensor
alarm will now sound for 20 seconds if it detects
movement. Slide to OFF to deactivate this function.
SWITCH OPTION
Channel Channel 1-2. If you are using more than
one sensor, select a different channel
for each sensor.
Once it has power, the motion sensor takes
2 minutes to warm up.
For best results:
• Insert the batteries and select the channel before
you mount the sensor.
• Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and
moisture.
• Do not place the sensor more than 100 feet
(30 meters) from the main (indoor) unit.
• Position the sensor so that it faces the main
(indoor) unit, minimizing obstructions such as
doors, walls, and furniture.
• Place the sensor in a location with a clear view to
the sky, away from metallic or electronic objects.
You may need to experiment with various locations to
get the best results.
Please refer to the POLERMO Projection Clock
with Motion Alert (RMR939PA) manual for information
on the remote sensor's clock-controlled functions.
