RCA902A Installing the Motion Detector Positioning the Motion Detector • Place the detector within range of the Receiver, taking into consideration any reduction in the maximum range (range depends on types of receivers used) caused by any objects in between. Avoid mounting the unit on or near large metal objects. • The recommended mounting height for the detector is 8 ft. At this height, the motion detector will have a range of approximately 40 ft. Mounting the detector higher will increase the detection range but it will be less sensitive to movement at the extreme range and also may not be able to detect movement very close to it. Tilting the detector head up and down will have the same effect. • Mount the detector on a firm stable surface where the logical path of a person would cut across the detection pattern. The detector is more sensitive to movement across its detection pattern than to movement directly towards it. 69-2157EFS_C.indd 5 5 69-2157EFS-05 9/22/2008 11:53:56 AM
