NV500 High-Performance Digital Infrared Motion Detector: Installation Manual V1.0
Jumper Settings
The NV500 features 4 pre-programmed profile settings.
The number associated with the profile (1 to 4) depicts the
number of LED flashes when changing jumper settings.
1. Normal (DEFAULT): This profile allows for faster
detection. Use this profile only in normal environments
that have minimal interference.
2. Moderate Risk: This profile provides better false alarm
rejection. Dual-edge processing requires balanced
detection from both sensor’s elements and requires that a
beam must be fully crossed even at close range.
3. Pet Immunity: Use the Pet Immunity profile if you have
pets that weigh up to 16 kg (25 lb).
4. Harsh: Use the Harsh profile when the detector is
installed in high-risk environments (potential interference)
and to provide greatly increased false alarm immunity.

Power-up Sequence
1) LED and relay will toggle on/off for 4 seconds.
2) Sensitivity level indication: 1 to 5 short flashes to
indicate trimpot position (see B: Sensitivity Settings).
3) Jumper setting indication. 1 to 4 short flashes to
indicate jumper setting (see C: Jumper Settings).
4) Detector is ready for alarm detection. Total power-up
sequence = 10 seconds.

Sensitivity Settings
Configure sensitivity via trimpot. Adjust from 1 (lowest sensitivity) to 5
(highest sensitivity), default = 3. The detector must be installed at 2.1
meter or higher).
Viewing sensitivity settings: After power-up, or right after setting the
trimpot to a new sensitivity level, the LED will flash a consecutive amount
of times to show the setting, then adjust the setting accordingly. Thus if
the sensitivity is set to 3, the LED flashes 3 times.
Turn clockwise = Increase sensitivity
Turn counterclockwise = Decrease sensitivity
Warning:The sensitivity trimpot is fragile. Do not overtorque.
