Característiques principals:

• 1/2 Mile Long Receiving Range: Under ideal conditions, the system can achieve a wireless range of up to 1/2 mile.
• Solar Powered Sensor: Eliminates the need for frequent battery replacement, utilizing a built-in rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery.
• Disseny resistent a la intempèrie (IP66): The outdoor motion sensor is fully enclosed and designed to withstand various weather conditions, with a working temperature range from -20℃ to 60℃.
• Sistema ampliable: A single receiver can be paired with up to 7 sensors for comprehensive property coverage.
• 7 Selectable Chimes: Choose from 7 unique alert sounds to differentiate between sensors and detection locations.
• Fàcil instal·lació: Dissenyat per a una configuració ràpida i senzilla.

2. Configuració i instal·lació

Follow these steps for optimal setup and performance of your eMACROS Driveway Alarm System.

2.1 Desembalatge i càrrega inicial

1. Carefully unpack all components: the solar motion sensor, the receiver, and mounting hardware.
2. Before first use, ensure the solar sensor is exposed to direct sunlight for at least 6-8 hours to fully charge its internal battery. The receiver should be plugged into a standard wall outlet.

2.2 Col·locació del sensor

Strategic placement of the sensor is crucial for effective detection and to minimize false alarms.

• Mount the sensor on a stable surface such as a wall, fence post, or tree. Ensure it has a clear line of sight to the area you wish to monitor.
• Position the sensor approximately 3-4 feet (0.9-1.2 meters) above the ground. This height helps in detecting vehicles and people while reducing triggers from small animals.
• Aim the sensor to detect cross-traffic rather than direct approach. Motion across the sensor's field of view is more reliably detected than motion directly towards it.
• Ensure the solar panel on top of the sensor receives adequate sunlight throughout the day for continuous charging.

2.3 Pairing Sensors with Receiver

The system allows pairing multiple sensors to one receiver, each with a distinct chime.

1. Plug in the receiver to a power outlet.
2. On the receiver, select the desired channel (1-7) for the sensor you are pairing.
3. Trigger the motion sensor by waving your hand in front of it or walking past it. The receiver should sound the selected chime, indicating successful pairing.
4. Repeat for additional sensors, assigning each to a different channel for easy identification of the detection zone.

3. Instruccions de funcionament

Once installed and paired, the eMACROS Driveway Alarm operates automatically.

3.1 Detecció de moviment

The passive infrared (PIR) sensor detects heat signatures and movement within its detection zone. When motion is detected, the sensor sends a wireless signal to the receiver.

3.2 Receiver Alerts

Upon receiving a signal, the receiver will:

• Sound the pre-selected chime for the corresponding sensor channel.
• Illuminate the indicator light for the activated channel.

This allows you to quickly identify which sensor has been triggered and from which area of your property the motion originated.

3.3 Adjusting Chimes and Volume

Refer to your receiver's specific controls to:

• Cycle through the 7 available chimes.
• Adjust the volume level of the alerts.

4. Manteniment

The eMACROS Driveway Alarm System is designed for low maintenance.

4.1 Cura dels panells solars

• Periodically clean the solar panel on top of the sensor with a soft, damp cloth to ensure maximum sunlight absorption.
• Ensure no debris, leaves, or snow obstructs the solar panel.

4.2 Resistència a la intempèrie

The sensor is rated IP66 weatherproof, meaning it is protected against dust and powerful water jets. While designed to withstand various weather conditions, extreme prolonged exposure to heavy rain or snow may temporarily affect performance. Ensure the sensor is securely mounted to prevent dislodgement during strong winds.

4.3 Bateria

The sensor uses a solar-rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery. Under normal conditions with adequate sunlight, the battery should maintain its charge without manual intervention. If the sensor is placed in a consistently shaded area, its performance may be affected over time.

5. Solució De Problemes

If you encounter issues with your eMACROS Driveway Alarm, try the following solutions:

5.1 No Detection or False Alarms

• Check Sensor Placement: Ensure the sensor is aimed correctly to detect motion across its field of view, not directly towards it. Adjust the angle using its 360-degree adjustment feature.
• Elimina les obstruccions: Verify that there are no trees, bushes, or other objects that might block the sensor's view or cause false triggers (e.g., swaying branches in strong wind).
• Exposició a la llum solar: Confirm the solar panel receives sufficient direct sunlight. A low battery can affect detection reliability.
• Interferència: While designed to minimize interference, strong radio signals or other wireless devices nearby could potentially affect performance. Try relocating the receiver or sensor.

5.2 Limited Wireless Range

• The advertised range of 1/2 mile is under ideal conditions (line of sight, no interference). Real-world range can be significantly reduced by obstacles such as thick forestry, walls, and other structures.
• The reliable detection range is typically up to 30 feet, especially in environments with obstructions.
• Relocate Receiver/Sensor: Try moving the receiver closer to the sensor, or repositioning the sensor to have a clearer path to the receiver.
• Comproveu la bateria: Ensure the sensor's battery is adequately charged.

5.3 Problemes d'aparellament

• Restableix l'emparellament: Consult your receiver's manual for specific instructions on how to clear existing pairings or reset the receiver.
• Torna a intentar l'emparellament: Follow the pairing steps in Section 2.3 carefully, ensuring the sensor is triggered while the receiver is in pairing mode for the desired channel.
• Proximitat: Perform the pairing process with the sensor and receiver in close proximity (within a few feet) to ensure a strong signal during pairing.
