Operating Instructions
P7831 Bird Repeller
Congratulations on your purchase of the P7831
Bird Repeller.
Please read these instructions fully before use.
The Bird Repeller provides a convenient, effective
and humane way to deter unwelcome birds and
animals from your property.
The P7831 features two types of audio repellants.
Predator sound mode produces the sounds of
hawks and falcons which helps to repel birds.
Ultrasound mode produces an ultrasound that
can be very unpleasant to animals but inaudible
to human ears. You can test both modes to
determine which works best for your pest control
problems.
WARNING
mUnit can be heavy with batteries installed. Mount unit
properly or injury may occur.
mWhen mounting use proper hardware. Do not over
tighten. Breakage may occur.
mDo not pierce any plumbing or electrical equipment
when you mount the unit. Damage or injury may occur.
mBe sure battery compartment door is securely closed.
Do not open battery compartment if the unit is wet.
Otherwise water may enter and damage the unit. Injury
may occur.
mDo not place your ear directly to the sound source.
Sound can be very loud and may cause discomfort or
injury.
mOnly use quality alkaline or lithium batteries in unit.
Other battery types may leak or explode causing injury.
Do not mix old and new batteries.
mDispose of exhausted batteries properly.
mWhen not using the unit for an extended period,
remove the batteries. Stored batteries may leak and
cause damage or injury.
FRONT
1. Buzzer for Ultrasound Mode
Buzzer produces an ultrasound that can be
very unpleasant to animals.
2. Loudspeaker for Predator Sound Mode
Powerful weatherproof speaker produces
sounds of hawks and falcons when
activated.
3. Passive Infrared Motion Detector (PIR)
The PIR feature a range of approximately
26 feet at an angle of 110 degree.

Control Legend (see diagram):
Remove thumbscrew on rear of unit to access
battery/control compartment.
1. Battery compartment: Insert 3X “D” cell alkaline or lithium
batteries. Be sure to follow the polarity diagram and insert
the batteries correctly. Do not mix old and new batteries.
2. SENS: Adjust the sensitivity of the PIR motion detector.
Typically leave it set at maximum (fully clockwise). To
reduce the coverage area rotates the control counter-
clockwise.
3. VOLUME: Adjust the volume of the loudspeaker signal.
Adjust to a maximum of sound volume (fully clockwise) to
increase effectiveness.
4. LED: To check the Ultrasound mode. Switch the selection
switch to “ ULTRA” position and press the “TEST” button –
the LED will light up.
5. Selection Switch: Three position switch
SOUND – to activate the predator sound mode
OFF – to turn off the device.
ULTRA – to activate ultrasound mode
6. TEST: Test button to check the ultrasound mode (see 4.
LED above).
Use:
Remove thumbscrew on rear of unit to access
battery/control compartment.
Insert 3X D cell batteries. Insure correct polarity by following
the diagram. Use only new high-quality alkaline or lithium
cells. Rechargeable batteries are not recommended.
Dispose of exhausted batteries properly.
Predator Sound Operation:
Switch the selection switch to “Sound” position.
Adjust the output volume by volume control knob.
Adjust the sensitivity of PIR sensor by PIR knob.
To test, wave your hand in front of the PIR lens to activate
the unit.
Ultrasound Operation:
Switch the selection switch to “ULTRA” position.
Adjust the sensitivity of PIR sensor by PIR knob.
Press the test button, test LED will light up and ultrasound
will start
BATTERY/CONTROL COMPARTMENT
Re-install battery door and secure with thumbscrew. Insure
the battery door is fully seated around the entire panel.
Insure thumbscrew is tight to insure weather resistance. Do
not over tighten.

Mounting (see diagram):
A. Use the included screws or other hardware to mount the
base plate to a suitable mounting surface.
You can attach the plate to a fencepost, structure, tree, etc.
Be certain not to pierce any plumbing or electrical
equipment when you mount the base plate.
Mount the base plate with the screw holes vertical. The Bird
Repeller unit is designed to mount to the base plate
vertically. We do not recommend mounting the unit
horizontally. The sensor will not work properly.
Choose your mounting location carefully. The base plate
allows you to adjust the angle of the Bird Repeller up or
down. We suggest mounting the unit high enough that it is
out of the reach of children. You can adjust the angle of the
base plate down to protect the intended area.
B. Attach unit to base plate by sliding mounting clip into
matching slot on rear of unit. Then slide unit down on the
clip until it is fully engaged. Be sure clip is fully inserted in
slot.
C. Rotate unit up and down to reach desired mounting
angle. Base plate does not rotate from left to right, only up
and down. PIR motion sensor has a wide angle of detection.
Typically side to side adjustment is not necessary.
Aim the Passive Infra-red motion detector (PIR) lens
towards the protected area. The PIR features a range of
approximately 26 feet at an angle of 110° (see diagram). If
possible, aim the sensor at an area with fewer branches
and/or vines. Branches moved by strong breezes may
trigger the motion detector circuit. This is normal but should
be minimized to extend battery life.
The Loudspeaker has a longer range than the PIR. Once
the signal is activated, the protected area will be larger than
the PIR range.

MOUNTING THE BIRD REPELLER (SIDE)
Advice:
When possible, mount the unit under cover. While the unit is
weather resistant, shield it from direct sunlight and rain
when possible.
If possible, aim the PIR motion sensor at an area with fewer
branches and/or vines. Branches moved by strong breezes
may trigger the motion detector circuit. This is normal but
should be minimized to extend battery life.
