Figure 13 shows the pattern for the maximum range in the
optimum position (see Figure 9). Masking the top section of the
lens reduces the range to 20 m / 66 ft.
Figure 14 shows the pattern for the minimum range (10 m /
33 ft.) In this case masking the top section of the lens reduces
the range to 6 meters.
Figure 15 shows possible alignments when the detector is
mounted close to a wall.

(5) Wall
The alignment shown as item 1 in Figure 15 is not
recommended. If the detector head is mounted at an angle of
90° to the perimeter, the mounting wall may cut off short and
medium range beams. The long-range beam still will detect an
intruder, however the wall can cause false alarms when heated
by sunlight.
Item 2 in Figure 15 shows the recommended alignment. The
detector head is mounted at a 55° angle to the perimeter. As a
result, short and medium range beams are parallel to the
perimeter, but the detection range along the perimeter is
reduced to 25 m.
LEDs
TX-2810-03-4 has one green detection LED that is shown in
Figure 16 as item 1.
Programming the detector
Pulse count
Pulse count is the number of times the detector must detect a
presence before signalling an alarm.
When the pulse count is set to 1, the detector is most sensitive.

To change any of TX-2810-03-4 settings:
1.
Press the programming button to select the option number
you want to change. Press once for range and twice for
pulse count.
2.
Wait until the programming (green) LED turns off (typically
4 seconds).
3.
Count the number of times the programming LED flashes
to determine the current value for that option.
4.
Press the programming button to select the value number
for the new setting. Example: To set the range to 30 m /
98 ft., press three times.
The programming LED blinks twice to indicate that the
new value was set.
Any alterations made to TX-2810-03-4 settings are stored in
the detector's nonvolatile memory.
Resetting options
To reset the detector to the default settings:
1.
Remove the batteries from the detector.
2.
Press and hold the programming button (see Figure 16,
item 2).
3.
Put the batteries back. Observe polarity.
4.
After the programming LED flashes, release the
programming button.
Programming control panels
For outdoor applications it is recommended to use the wireless
detector as a pre-alarm device. Refer to the specific control
panel manuals for details on programming.
Self-test function
TX-2810-03-4 has a self-test facility which sends a tamper
signal if a fault is detected. If a fault has been detected,
removing the front cover triggers the detection LED to flash
10 times.
Walk test
To enter the walk test mode, press the programming button
once. The unit can then be aligned. The detection LED lights
on TX-2810-03-4 every time detection takes place.
The test mode ends automatically five minutes after last
detection. Alternatively, press the program button twice, or
remove and then reapply power to cancel the walk test mode.
Note:
When you conduct a walk test, make sure that the front
cover is in place. Do not conduct walk tests with the cover
removed.
The range of the detector increases without the protective front
cover. Therefore the front cover must be fitted to establish the
correct beam pattern. Use Table 2 above to adjust the range
as necessary. Pan and tilt the lens module over the field of
view to obtain the correct coverage area.
To preserve battery life the detector has a 2 minute sleep timer
after a detection. This is reduced to 5 seconds during walk test.
