PG9994/PG8994/PG4994

PowerG, Wireless, High-security PIR Motion 
Outdoor Mirror Detector Installation 
Instructions

Overview

The PGx994 is a PowerG wireless, outdoor, digital mirror PIR
detector which uses eight PIR sensors, each acting as a Quad
detector to accurately and reliably determine whether an alarm
is justified. Features & benefits include:

• Optimum performance even in poor weather conditions 

such as snow, rain, dust, wind and direct sunlight.

• Tamper protection prevents opening and removal from wall
• Built-in link quality indicators reduce installation time by 

eliminating the need for the installer to physically approach 
the control panel.

• Microprocessor-controlled  compensation.
• Immunity to pets weighing up to 18 Kg (40lb).

Note:

 Pet immunity feature has not been evaluated to UL 639

or ULC-S306-03 due to the feature not being addressed in
either standard.

Device Setup

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.

Note:

 The PG Series wireless PIR

Motion detectors shall be installed
and used within an environment that
provides the pollution degree max 2 and overvoltages category
II in NON HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS. The equipment is
designed to be installed only by qualified service persons.

Note: 

To ensure the continued operation of all wireless devices

after performing a system default, a global upload of all wire-
less programming via DLS is recommended before defaulting
the system. After completing the system default, download the
wireless programming.

Install the battery

It is recommended to perform the first batteries insertion on a
flat surface. After battery insertion, the LED will flash for 60
seconds and then the detector will enter a 15 minute local diag-
nostic mode.

Note:

 When manually programming wireless devices, if a

device has been powered up for more than 48 hours it cannot be
enrolled into the system until the device has been tampered and
restored. When programming the panel using the Quick Enroll

procedure follow the steps detailed in Enroll the Device into the
System.

Note: 

After restoring a low battery trouble the system may take

up to 5 minutes to clear the trouble.

Enroll the Device into the System

To quick enroll:
1.

On a keypad press [*] [8] [Installer Code] [804] [000].

2.

Press and hold the device enroll button until the LED lights 
steady and then release the enroll button while the LED is 
still lit. A confirmation message then appears on the 
keypad.

3.

Press [*] key to confirm ID.

4.

Enter [3 digit zone #].

5.

Enter [3 digit zone type].

6.

Enter [1 digit partition #] for all desired partitions and 
press [#]. If using an LCD keypad you can scroll to the 
desired partitions and press [*] to toggle the partition.

7.

On an LCD keypad enter the label by using word library.

To pre-enroll:
1.

Remotely configure the unique ID number into the system. 
For more information see the HSM2HOST manual.

2.

When on-site, press the device enroll button.

Note: 

If the wireless device has been powered for more than 48

hours without being enrolled, tamper and restore the device to
enroll it.

Placement and Walk Testing

Before permanently mounting any wireless device, temporarily
mount the device and perform a Placement test. Perform a walk
test of the coverage area at least once a year to ensure that the
detector is working correctly.

1.

Tamper the device by removing the cover.

2.

Restore the tamper. 
The device now 
enters Placement 
test mode for 15 
minutes.

3.

Trip the device and 
the red LED blinks 
once to identify that 
a signal is being sent 
to the receiver and 
then blinks three 
times to identify the 
signal strength. To 
perform a walk test, 
walk across the far 
end of coverage 
pattern in both 
directions. The 
following table indicates received signal strength 
indication.

IMPORTANT! 

Only GOOD or STRONG signal strengths are

acceptable. If you receive a POOR signal from the device, re-
locate it and re-test until a GOOD or STRONG signal is
received. 

Note:

 For UL/ULC installations, only STRONG signal levels

are acceptable. After installation verify the product functional-

ity in conjunction with the compatible receivers HSM2HOST9,
HS2LCDRF(P)9, HS2ICNRF(P)9 and PG9920.

Note:

 For detailed Placement instructions refer to the control

panel Reference Guide.

Mounting the Device

Installation Notes:

 The top cover should only be accessed by

authorized service personnel or manufacturer. Do not obscure
the detector field of view with large objects. Install in position
such that expected intruder motion is perpendicular to the zones
of detection. 
Alarms triggered by conditions such as weather, blowing leaves
and brush, or related environmental conditions, etc., need to be
considered when assessing the installation and application. If
nuisance trips are not tolerable it is recommended that the wire-
less outdoor intrusion detection unit is enrolled in the system to
a zone that is defined as a trouble alarm circuit. 

1.

Fix the bracket firmly on a stable wall or pillar. The 
orientation of the fixed bracket must be as parallel as 
possible to the surveyed ground surface.

2.

Mark drilling point

3.

Drill

4.

Fasten with three long screws

5.

Fasten the detector to the bracket with two short screws.

6.

Adjust the detector's 
horizontal and vertical 
angles, according to the 
surveyed ground surface. 
The vertical angle indicator 
position for various 
installation height and 
coverage distance 
combinations is detailed in 
the following table (the 
information refers to a 
relatively flat surveyed 
area. Verify the vertical 
adjustment by walk-test).

Instructions d'installation du détecteur de 
mouvements IPR PowerG, à miroir, extérieur, 
sans fil, de haute sécurité

Vue d'ensemble

Le PGx994 est un détecteur numérique IPR PowerG à miroir,
extérieur, sans fil qui met en œuvre huit capteurs IPR, chacun
agissant comme un détecteur à quatre cellules pour déterminer
de façon sûre et précise si une alarme est justifiée. Les car-
actéristiques et les avantages incluent :

• Des performances optimales même sous de mauvaises 

conditions météorologiques comme de la neige, de la pluie, 
du vent, en cas d'exposition à de la poussière ou aux rayons 
directs du soleil.

• La protection anti-sabotage empêche le dispositif d'être 

ouvert ou retiré du mur.

• Les indicateurs de qualité de liaison intégrés réduisent les 

temps d'installation en supprimant la nécessité de 
l'installateur d'être physiquement à proximité de la centrale.

• Correction apportée par microprocesseur.
• Insensibilité aux animaux d'un poids jusqu'à 18 kg (40 lb).

Remarque : 

La fonction d'insensibilité aux animaux n'a pas été

évaluée pour les normes UL 639 ou ULC-S306-03 parce qu'elle
n'est pas abordée par les deux normes

Define whether motion alarms are always enabled 
or only enabled at night. For UL/ULC installations 
night mode is to only be used to supplement the 
protection covering the detection area. 

[003]

Hightraffic Shutdown - Default [01] 

Activating this feature helps conserve battery power 

when the system is disarmed by configuring a reporting 

timer. When motion is detected, the device transmits an 

alarm to the receiver and will not report any further 

events until the timer expires. Any motion detected 

during the configured period will be reported once the 

timer expires. No Delay causes the device to report an 

alarm each time the detector is tripped.
