2.6. Behavior PIR sensor
Warm up phase
It takes about 1 minute for the PIR sensors to warm up after the battery is inserted. During this time the
LED behind the lens will light up. When the LED goes out, it means that the warm-up process is
complete and the detector is ready for detection.
Hint:
This has no effect on the inclusion/exclusion process.
After removing the batteries, wait 5 seconds before inserting them again.
PIR waiting time
As soon as motion is detected, the device's LED lights up and it sends a motion alarm to the Z-
Wave controller. The device now waits for a preset time (waiting time) until it resets the motion
alarm to the Z-Wave controller.
If motion is still present after 160 seconds, a new motion alarm is sent and the waiting time for
resetting the motion alarm is reset. The detector will not reset the motion alarm until the waiting
time for reset has expired without motion detection.
The default period of the reset waiting time is 180 seconds.
Changes have a significant effect
on the expected battery life.
