Installation
1. Slide the battery compartment cover off and installfour
AA alkaline batteries. Observe polarity.
2. Set the slide switch on the back of the MS10A to 1 to
trip the alarm if only one movement is detected (most
sensitive). Set to 2 to trip the alarm only after 2
movements are detected (helps prevent false alarms).
3. Press the CODE button on the back of the MS10A
with the point of a pencil.
4. Place the MS10A face down so that it can’t “see”
any motion. (If it does it might install itself twice).
5. Set the INSTALL/RUN switch on your Security
Console to INSTALL.
6. Press TEST on the MS10A. The Console beeps and
the next unused zone indicator lights up.
Motion Sensor, Model MS10A Set Up and Operating Instructions
MS10A-8/02
The red light on the Motion Sensor blinks to indicate that it
“saw you.” After you walk past the Motion Sensor, it will
not see motion again for about 45 seconds (to conserve
battery power). Wait about 45 seconds for the Motion
Sensor to settle, arm the console in the Away mode, then
walk past the Motion Sensor. The alarm trips and sounds
its siren. Press disarm on your remote control.
Replacing batteries
Slide the battery compartment cover off and replace the
batteries withfour AA alkaline batteries. Observe polarity.
After replacing the batteries, the following steps are
necessary to determine that the Console still recognizes
the Motion Sensor.
1. Place the Console’s slide switch to RUN1 or RUN2.
2. Press TEST on the Motion Sensor. If the appropriate
zone indicator blinks, then the Console recognized the
Motion Sensor and no further action is necessary.
If the zone indicator didn't blink in step 2 above:
1. Place the Console’s slide switch to INSTALL.
2. Press TEST on the MS10A. The MS10A transmits a
code to the Console. The console acknowledges this
with a beep and logs in the MS10A. To make sure the
Console logs the MS10A back into the same zone it
was allocated to before you changed the batteries, wait
four hours after removing the old batteries before
reinstalling (until the appropriate zone indicator on the
Console starts flashing).
7. Set the Console’s slide switch back toRUN1orRUN2.
8. To set up additional Motion Sensors (up to 16*) repeat
the above steps.
*Note: you can install a total of 16 zones in the Console.
This can be a combination of Door/Window Sensors and
Motion Sensors. E.G. 8 Door/Window Sensors AND 8
MotionSensors.SeeyourSecuritySystemOwner’s Manual

Operation
When the Security System is armed using a Key Chain
Remote (KR10A) the Motion Sensor will always trip the
alarmwhen it sees motion.When the system isarmed using
an SH624 Remote Control it can be armed in the Home or
Away mode. When armed in the Home mode, Motion
Sensors will NOT trip the alarm.
Place the Motion Sensor on a bookshelf, or attach it to a
wallabout6feet off the ground, using thesuppliedmounting
bracket. Wait about 45 seconds for the Motion Sensor to
settle then walk past it.
