Hereby, SATEL sp. z o.o., declares that this detector is in compliance with the
essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 2014/53/EU. The
declaration of conformity may be consulted at www.satel.eu/ce
The following symbols may be used in this manual:
- note;
- caution.

The AOCD-250 detector makes it possible to detect motion at the moment of crossing the
perimeter of protected area. It is designed for perimeter protection. The detector is designed
for use as part of the ABAX two-way wireless system. This manual applies to the detector
with firmware version 1.00, which is supported by:
ACU-120 / ACU-270 controller with firmware version 5.02 2016-04-01 (or newer),
ARU-100 repeater with firmware version 2.02 2015-06-01 (or newer),
INTEGRA 128-WRL control panel with firmware version 1.15 2016-03-09 (or newer) and
firmware version of processor used to operate ABAX system 3.05 (or newer).
1. Features
Passive infrared (PIR) sensor and microwave sensor.
Adjustable detection sensitivity of both sensors.
Remote configuration.
Digital motion detection algorithm.
Digital temperature compensation.
Tricolor LED indicator.
Supervision of detector signal path.
Battery status control.
Tamper protection against cover removal and tearing enclosure from the wall.
Weatherproof enclosure featuring a very high mechanical strength.
Angle-type mounting bracket included.
2. Description
Alarms
The detector reports alarm in the following cases:
both sensors have detected motion within a time interval of less than 5 seconds. This
alarm can only be reported in the active mode (see: „Operating modes”).
tamper switch has been opened (tamper alarm).
Operating modes
Switching between the operating modes is done remotely.
Active mode – motion detection alarm or tamper alarm can be triggered. The microwave
sensor activates after motion is detected by the infrared sensor.
Passive mode – tamper alarm only can be triggered. The microwave sensor is inactive.
During polling, the detector indicates whether motion has been detected by the infrared
sensor. The passive mode prolongs the battery life.
The alarm information is sent instantly.
Test mode
If you want to test the detector, you can remotely enter the test mode. When in the test mode,
the detector LED is working.

2 AOCD-250 SATEL
Supervision of detector signal path
In case of signal path failure, the detector sends information about alarm during each
transmission (constant violation).
Battery status control
When the battery voltage is below 2.75 V, information about low battery is sent during each
transmission.
3. Electronics module
CR123A lithium battery.
tamper switch activated by cover removal.
microwave sensor.
tricolor LED to indicate:
polling – short flash (80 milliseconds),
motion detection by the microwave sensor - the LED
lights green for 4 seconds,
motion detection by the PIR sensor – the LED lights
blue for 4 seconds,
alarm – the LED lights red for 2 seconds,
warm-up – flashing alternately red, green and blue for
about 45 seconds.
The LED is working for 2 minutes after battery is
inserted, as well as in the test mode.
PIR sensor (dual element pyrosensor). Do not touch
the pyroelectric sensor, so as not to soil it.
4. Installation
There is a danger of battery explosion when using a different battery than
recommended by the manufacturer, or handling the battery improperly.
Be particularly careful during installation and replacement of the battery. The
manufacturer is not liable for the consequences of incorrect installation of the
battery.

The used batteries must not be discarded, but should be disposed of in
accordance with the existing rules for environment protection.
Install the detector at the recommended height (Fig. 2-I).
Install the detector at a roofed location or under a protective roof, where streams of water
from rain or melting snow will not run down the enclosure.
Don’t install the detector closer than 3 meters from the moving objects (eg. tree branches,
bushes, laundry etc.) (Fig. 2-II).
Don’t direct the detector on reflective surfaces or on fans or a heat sources (Fig. 2-III).
Do not install the detector at any location directly exposed to sun rays.
1. Remove the front cover (Fig. 3).
2. Install the battery and add the detector to the wireless system (see the ABAX controller
manual or the INTEGRA 128-WRL / VERSA / VERSA Plus / VERSA IP control panel
installer manual). The sticker with serial number which shall be entered when registering
the detector in the system can be found on the electronics board.
3. Replace the cover.
4. Place the detector in the location intended for its installation.
5. Check the level of signal received from the detector by the ABAX controller or the
INTEGRA 128-WRL control panel. If the signal level is lower than 40%, select another
place for installation. Sometimes, it is sufficient to shift the device ten or twenty
centimeters to obtain a considerable improvement in the signal quality.
6. Remove the front cover (Fig. 3).
7. Push the fastening catches outward and remove the electronics board (Fig. 4).
8. Make the openings for screws.
To ensure tightness of the enclosure, make the holes only at places specially intended
for this purpose.

9. Mount the enclosure base directly to the wall (Fig. 5) or to the angle bracket screwed
down to the wall (Fig. 6). Wall plugs and screws are delivered with the detector. For the
hole designated by letter A on the figures 5 & 6, use the smaller screw. Fig. 7 shows the
possible ways of detector installation (the detector can also be mounted on the adjustable
brackets, BRACKET A and BRACKET B, offered by SATEL).
If the detector is to meet the requirements of EN50131 standard for Grade 3, it must
not be mounted on any bracket.

11.Replace the cover.
12.Configure the detector settings (sensitivity of PIR sensor, sensitivity of microwave
sensor). For description on how to configure the detector, refer to the ABAX controller
manual or the INTEGRA / VERSA / VERSA Plus / VERSA IP control panel programming
manual.
