Overview                                                                    Step 2
The Wireless Alert Sensor is a Passive Infra-Red
(PIR) sensor that detects movement of people and
vehicles, while allowing small animals to pass through
undetected. Each sensor has its own unique ID, for a
secure radio link. The base station (not provided) can
learn the signals of up to 4 sensors. The base station
gives a single beep for the first sensor that is
programmed, a double beep for the second, and so
on. Additionally, multiple base stations can work with
the same sensor to sound in different places.

The Alert is giving false alarms.
Check for moving tree branches or insects in sensor
window. PIR sensor can also be triggered by light
shining directly in sensor window, such as reflected
sunlight, or motion in front of a light source.
It is possible that condensation has built up on the
sensor. Wipe condensation from PIR Motion Sensor
with cotton swab. Let it sit inside for a few hours, open
to the air, without the batteries and it should correct
itself.
Check Sensor Switches on PIR Motion Sensor. See
Switch Settings.
