1. INTRODUCTION1. INTRODUCTION
1. INTRODUCTION
The TOWER-32AM PG2 and TOWER-32AM K9-90 PG2 (pet-immune) Dual Technology are 2-way,
microprocessor-controlled, wireless digital mirror PIR detectors interfacing with PowerMaster-10 and
PowerMaster-30 control panels (version 16 and higher) and which include the following features:
•Adaptive Active Infra-Red Anti-Masking technology providing the most advanced reliable protection
against intentional masking attempts (patent pending)
•Includes a fully supervised PowerG transceiver.
•24 GHz K-band microwave module.
•Incorporates patent pending black mirrors for extremely high white light immunity.
•Advanced elliptical / parabolic mirror technology (patent pending)
•Provides multiple curtain coverage (patent pending)
•V-slot® optic technology (patent pending) for improved robustness, anti-vandalism and for very high reliability.
•Creep zone protection
•TOWER-32AM K9-90 PG2 can distinguish between human beings and pets weighing up to 40 kg (90 lb).
•The advanced True Motion Recognition™ algorithm (patented) allows distinguishing between the true
motion of an intruder and any other disturbances which may cause false alarms.
•Built-in auto diagnostic for both PIR and microwave detectors.
•Built-in link quality indicators; no need for the installer to physically approach the control panel thus
making installation faster and easier.
•No vertical adjustment is needed.
•Motion event counter determines whether 1 or 2 consecutive motion events will trigger an alarm.
•Automatic termination of walk-test after 15 minutes.
•Microprocessor controlled, digital TMR signal processing with dual-slope digital temperature compensation.
•Sealed chamber protects the optical system.
•Front and back tamper protection.

INSTALLATION
2.1 General G idance (see Fig. 2)
1. Keep away from heat sources.
2. Do not expose to air drafts.
3. Do not install outdoors.
4. Avoid direct sunshine.
5. Keep wiring away from power cables.
6. Do not install behind partitions.
7. Mount on solid stable surface.
8. Install the detector in an upright position.
WARNING! To comply with FCC and IC RF exposure compliance
requirements, the PIR detector should be located at a distance of
at least 20 cm from all persons during normal operation. The
antennas used for this product must not be co-located or operated
in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter

Figure 2. General Guidelines
Important!
The detector is immune to
40 kg (90 lb)
animals moving on the floor or climbing on
furniture as long as the activity takes place below
1 m (3 ft). Above the 1 m (3 ft) height limit, the pet
immunity will decrease as the pet gets closer to
the detector. It is therefore recommended to select
a mounting location that minimizes potential close
proximity of animals.

A. Separate the base from the cover (see Fig. 3).
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.
C. The TOWER-32AM PG2 will enter a 2 min. stability period. During this time the red LED blinks.
D. Walk-test the coverage area - see Figure 5. 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 the 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.
For detailed Diagnostics Test instructions refer to the control panel Installer Guide.

. SPECIAL COMMENTS
SPECIAL COMMENTSSPECIAL COMMENTS
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.
This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in residential installations. This equipment generates
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio and television reception.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this device does cause such interference,
which can be verified by turning the device off and on, the user is encouraged to eliminate the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
– Re-orient or re-locate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the distance between the device and the receiver.
– Connect the device to an outlet on a circuit different from the one that supplies power to the receiver.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician.
WARNING! Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
This device complies with FCC Rules Part 15 and with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference that may be received
or that may cause undesired operation.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est
autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter
tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
