Battery life largely depends on the number of transmissions per day and the operating temperature. The indicated lifetime 

applies to default sensor settings and operation at a temperature close to room temperature.

**

  The operating range applies to an open area and ideal conditions without obstacles and without external interference 

signals. If there are obstacles or sources of strong interference signals between the sensor and the controller, a reduction 

in the range provided by the manufacturer should be provided for, which in some situations may reach even 90%. This 

also applies if the sensor is mounted on a metal surface or in a metal switchgear. High power overhead and underground 

power lines as well as mobile phone transmitters situated in close proximity to the devices also have a negative impact 

on the operating range.

***  Some functions are only available when using the PCL-21 power cradle

****  Applies to a sensor mounted at a height of approx. 2.2 m. The range is only adjusted through the mobile application 

(configuration options).

DESCRIPTION

CHARACTERISTICS

• motion detection based on a digital PIR sensor,

• built-in illuminance sensor,

• co-operation with EFC-01 controller and EXTA LIFE receivers,

• direct co-operation with selected receivers bypassing the controller,

• work with or without twilight sensor,

• regulated sensitivity (range and size of detected objects)

• anti-tamper function based on the accelerometer,

• configurable NO/NC output (connected only through a PCL-21 cradle),

• battery or external power supply (through a PCL-21 cradle),

• possibility of configuration (only with external power supply),

• possibility of software upgrade,

• quick installation using a magnetic pad,

• mobility and a convenient way of directing,

• indoor installation only.

RCR-21 sensor is designed to detect motion. Additionally, it has a built-in illuminance sensor 

that controls the operation according to the intensity of sunlight. The sensor can work directly 

with selected EXTA LIFE receivers or the EFC-01 controller. In the case of a controller after con-

necting the sensor with logical functions, the sensor can participate in automating of the control 

processes of various devices in home installations. RCR-21 is based on a PIR digital sensor that 

enables a fairly precise change of sensitivity which in turn translates into adjustment of the operat-

ing range and the size of detected objects. The sensor is equipped with an accelerometer with 

anti-tamper function. Motion detection is signalled by a LED that can be switched off. The sensor 

can be powered by batteries (by default) or an external voltage source (6 ÷ 24 V AC/DC) through 

a PCL-21 power cradle. In the case of external power supply, sensor configuration is possible. 

The power cradle also allows for using the sensor output, for instance to connect it to the alarm 

system. The magnetic pad enables quick installation of the sensor, guarantees full mobility and 

convenient directing. The sensor is to be operated indoors only (IP20).
