Pir Positioning

Recommended Posts

I have had some cabled installed whilst I was having and extension built and am now at the stage of fitting the control panel, PIRs etc. Unfortunately some of the PIRs will have sight of windows (although not direct sunlight), is this going to be an issue for me and if you why and how can I get round the problem ? Incidentally none of the windows have curtains.

Dual-technology detector - normally PIR and microwave.

However the PIR can still be compromised by say sunlight across glass but with the addition of the microwave technology it shouldn't cause an alarm.

Ah right, got you.

I'm using Texecom Prestige QD Quad Element PIRs - gues I'll just have to give them a go as moving the cables isn't really an option :-(

Whilst you are all in such a great mood, I realise I can't run alarm cables parallel with mains cables, but can I cross over mains cables at say 90 degrees without having any problems.

Thanks again

(hangs his head in shame)
