utilizing four passive infra red elements and Microwave technology for use outdoors and in harsh environments LC 171 is designed for outdoor use in the most severe climatic conditions and may also pets reliability is achieved by combining both dual tech hardware with highly sophisticated and an adaptive coverage area greatly reducing the possibility of false alarms active elements are comprised of a dual PIR and advanced Microwave detector inside a rigid plastic body special optics combined with state of the art microwave Doppler sensor assures elimination alarms while maintaining high security standards for the detection of human intruders the protected area detection sensitivity and range is controlled by a digital rotary switch allowing 16 calibration so that the correct detection pattern will be set for every installation LC 171 is designed to protect large areas and can easily be installed on walls or poles in to provide a solid area of protection while rejecting interference from birds and small due to the provided pet immunity optics 16 levels of PIR sensitivity adjustment and 3 microwave sensitivity groups Features Microwave detection based on Doppler concept N O N C Relays switched at the same time Pet immunity up 35kg 77 lb Temperature compensation Microcontroller signal processing Front and back tamper protection Audible indication of walk test and intruder detection Unique waterproof sealed plastic design Detection Range Up to 12m 39ft Detect human intruders walking or running No maintenance required High RFI EMI Immunity Protection from direct sunlight wind up to 30 m sec 98 ft sec snow and rain small animals of the top cover and removal from mounting bracket Assembly description LC 171 is a robust detector which includes a large LED indicator that can be easily observed long distances and an optional buzzer to provide indication of intrusion the supplied mounting bracket the LC 171 can be easily mounted to walls using mounting and poles using the supplied metal bands LC 171 is combined of three detection elements Upper PIR element Lower PIR element Microwave element following drawing shows all internal elements The upper PIR element has an adjustable detection height while the other two are fixed setting handle switch PIR element element locking screw Connection Blocks Indication PIR element and Buzzer dipswitches setting Angle Indicator Detection Pattern LC 171 has a 90 top view PIR and MW detection pattern with over 12m 39 ft distance when installed at 1.2m 4 ft above the ground surface LC 171 has an internal rotating housing which includes the 2 PIR elements and the MW can be adjusted horizontally so its 90 coverage may vary between 0 and 180 area Detection detection pattern PIR element detection pattern to 12m range pet detection in all area PIR element detection pattern between 3m and 12m 10ft to 39ft LC 171 can differentiate between pets and human bodies and alert accordingly by microwave movement detection combined with two PIR detection beams Lower PIR element which is fixed to 12m 39ft range and 60cm 2ft above ground level helps avoiding pet detection over the entire area Upper PIR element which has adaptive range between 3 and 12m 10 and 39 ft intrusion is defined by both PIR detection beams being crossed and a Microwave detection causing an alarm alarm will be generated if only one of the PIR detection beams is crossed and microwave occurs Selecting mounting location installation of the LC 171 requires a solid level base for the mounting bracket and must be in a manner that when the detector is mounted it is facing the center of the desired zone is recommended that the detector will face solid border limiting the detection area such as the structure or fencing wall to avoid undesired detection protected area must be free from obstacles like walls trees ditches and other microwave detectors a location most likely to intercept an intruder according to detection pattern on page 5 the Following Installation Locations Facing direct sunlight Facing areas subject to rapid temperature changes Mounted at more than 10 from the vertical or horizontal plane Facing metal doors Near direct sources of heat or airflow Clear all physical obstacles from the detection area plants laundry etc Clear all light reflecting surfaces from the detection area puddles or other standing water Avoid installation on the following types of ground vegetation Grass un mown Water Sand and Metal Recommended installation height is 1.2m 4ft The DUAL Four Elements high quality sensor detects motion crossing the beam it is less detecting motion towards the detector The LC 171 performs best when provided with a constant and stable environment In order to ensure suitable operation of the LC 171 type of ground should be one of the Asphalt concrete Cement Soil Clay Gravel or Grass mown Sensitivity adjustment may be required upon extreme temperature changes high temperature will reduce detection range low temperature will increase detection range proper installation location to avoid resetting Detector Installation Prior to installation read both and the mounting sections carefully Install the detector in such manner that the intruder most likely to cross the detection area from side to The detector is to be installed at height of 0.8 to 1.5
