CLIP PG2
PowerG Wireless, Curtain, PIR Motion Detector
Installation Instructions
1. INTRODUCTION
The CLIP PG2 is a small and elegant wireless curtain-pattern PIR detector for indoor use and designed for easy installation.
Modern technology is used to include 3 different detectors in a single case, each programmable for optimized performance at the specific
mounting location. This results in better catch performance and virtually no false alarms.
The superiority in performance of this detector is achieved by applying an improved version of the patented True Motion Recognition™
(TMR) algorithm. This advanced motion analysis method allows the CLIP PG2 to distinguish between the true motion of the human body
and any other disturbances that cause false alarms.
The CLIP PG2 includes the following features:
2-way PowerG protocol communication
Very low current consumption
Microprocessor-controlled temperature compensation
Sealed chamber protects the optical system
Front cover tamper switch
Optional back tamper switch
White light protection
Elegantly styled, sturdy case
RF Link quality indication
Detailed coverage patterns and mounting alternatives are illustrated in Figures 2 through 6.

ATTENTION!
The back tamper switch becomes functional only when the
break-away segment is secured to the wall with a screw.
Notes:
1) After mounting, be sure that no gaps remain in the detector
housing. For example, in the area around the screw holes.
2) Remove the battery using your fingers, and not with a
screwdriver.
Caution!
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used battery according to manufacturer's instructions.

2.4 Setting the Coverage Range
The CLIP PG2 can be programmed to select one of three ranges,
according to the type of installation, for the curtain beams (see
Figure 15 and section 2.7).
A. Minimum range
B. Medium range
C. Maximum range
Figure 15. Range Setting Diagram
2.5 Walk Testing
A. Mount the cover and tighten the screw. Wait for the detector to stabilize (the LED stops flashing approx. 1 minute after the cover is closed).
B. Walk slowly across the far end of the curtain pattern (in opposite directions). The LED indicator lights for approx. 3 seconds whenever
you enter or exit a curtain beam.
Important: Perform walk test at least once a week to assure proper function of the detector.
Note: After closing the cover the detector enters a 15 minute walk-test mode. In this mode the LED will flash each time a detection
occurs, regardless of LED jumper settings, and the detector will transmit on the occurrence of each detection event.
2.6. Enrollment

3. LOCAL DIAGNOSTICS TEST
A. Separate the base from the cover (see Fig. 8).
B. Put back the cover to return the tamper switch to its normal (undisturbed) position, and then secure the front cover to the base with the
case closure screw (see Fig. 9).
C. The CLIP PG2 will enter a 1 min. stability period. During this time the red LED blinks.
D. Walk-test the coverage area. Walk across the far end of coverage pattern in both directions, The red LED lights each time your motion
is detected followed by 3 LED blinks.
The following table indicates received signal strength indication.
LED response Reception
Green LED blinks Strong
Orange LED blinks Good
Red LED blinks Poor
No blinks No communication
IMPORTANT! Reliable reception must be assured. Therefore, "poor" signal strength is not acceptable. If you receive a "poor" signal from
the detector, re-locate it and re-test until a "good" or "strong" signal strength is received.
Note: For detailed Diagnostics Test instructions refer to the control panel Installer Guide.
4. SPECIAL COMMENTS
Even the most sophisticated detectors can sometimes be defeated or may fail to warn due to: DC power failure / improper connection,
malicious masking of the lens, tampering with the optical system, decreased sensitivity in ambient temperatures close to that of the human
body and unexpected failure of a component part.
The above list includes the most common reasons for failure to detect intrusion, but is by no means comprehensive. It is therefore
recommended that the detector and the entire alarm system be checked weekly, to ensure proper performance.
An alarm system should not be regarded as a substitute for insurance. Home and property owners or renters should be prudent enough
to continue insuring their lives and property, even though they are protected by an alarm system.
5. COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARDS
