8.

Choose Sensor Location and Mount

a.

Determine sensor mounting location

based on installation scenario

and criteria
noted
in the “Installation Guidelines
.
”

For best image capture, the target capture
areas sh
ould
be centered in the frame. (
e.g.

If customer wants to capture people
coming through door,
the
doorway should be centered in camera/PIR view.)

b.

Verify RF
c
ommunication
prior to mounting
-
To verify RF signal strength, tamper
sensor and place near mounting location.
Activate PIR for 2 minutes.
On a Simon
XT, c

” Signal Strength.


The sensor performs best when the signal
strength is above 40%
.

T
he signal
strength must be greater than 30% for sensor to function properly.
Sig
nal
strength can fluctuate depending on environmental conditions and interference, so
be

sure that the signal is consistently in range.


c.

This corresponds to a “teeth up” orientation of the mounting
arm. For most smaller areas in residential installations,
mount the arm

with the
“teeth down” for a deeper angle (18
̊
).
Secure the back of the sensor to the mount
ing
arm with the provided screw
.
If the camera will be mounted

perpen

the sensor to point towards the desired coverage area.
To adjust positioning, lift the
mounting arm at least 1/3 of the way off the bracket and rotate
the arm.


f.

Secure the mounting arm location

by sliding lock pin into the hole.
Use
the washer
and
remaining small screw
to secure

the

lock pin by screwing

upwards through the
bottom of the hole in the mounting bracket.

(Note: To make it easier to adjust
PIR/camera field of view in step 10, complete this step after horizontal sensor


posi
tioning is finalized.)






9.

Complete PIR
Testing & Verify RF Coverage

Verify that PIR coverage adequately covers area by performing a walk test. (See
“
Pro

gramming
”

section for more details.) Verify that the sensor signal strength is strong
while mounted.
The signal strength must be above 30% f
or the sensor to function
properly.

Test Image Capture

To conserve the customer’s monthly image upload quota, automatic alarm uploads are
disabled for the first four hours after any new sensor (Image Sensor or other) is installed
into the system.
Installers can verify sensor positioning and test image capture
s on

in
stalled sensors via a dedicated installer test mobile site, without having to access the
customer’s account or deduct
ing

from the customer’s monthly upload quota.
If possible,
installers should also test night vision captures to ensure sensor inf
rared flash will not
be reflecting off surfaces and washing out images. While on
-
site, visit:

www.alarm.com/imagesetup


In order to request images from the sensors, confirm the module serial number and
enter a
one
-
time use test authorization code.

On the Simon XT,
r
equest a test
authorization code at the control panel through “System Programming”


“Interactive
Services”


“Test Auth Code
.
”

Hit “OK” to retrieve a code.
On the XTi, request a code
through “Programming”


“Interactive Services”


“Advanced”


“Auth Code”.
The
panel will beep and display the code once it has been retrieved.
The images requested
via the test site can be viewed from the test site and will also be displayed in the
customer’s
Image Gallery

on the
C
ustomer
W
ebsite.


On the Simon XTi panel,
test images can also be requested and viewed directly on the
panel. To r
equest test images
,
go to “Programming”


“Interactive Services”


“Image
Sensor”


“Test”


press “Peek
-
In” next to the Image Sensor to test. An image will be
requested from the sensor and sent to the
control panel for viewing

and will also be
displayed in the customer’s
Image Gallery

on the Customer Website
.

On the Simon
XTi panel, any image captured by the images sensors may be manually requested and
displayed at the control panel
via the ‘Image List’ menu under ‘Interactiv
e Services’


‘Image Sensor’. Installers can use this menu to request alarm image captures or any
other captures that occurred during the install. Images requested from this menu are
displayed at the

control panel only and are not shown in the customer
’s online
Image
Gallery
or counted against the customer’s monthly upload quota unless the customer
also requests that these images be uploaded to Alarm.com.


(Note:
If the installer needs to continue testing beyond the 4 hour window,
disable alarm
auto
-
uploads first
from the Alarm.com Dealer

PIR and camera field of view.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES


Before permanently mounti
ng the Image Sensor, evaluate potential locations and consider
the following factors to ensure optimal performance and false alarm protection:

Range
-

Is the location close enough to the security panel to ensure adequate signal
strength?

False Alarm
Immunity
-

Is installation location false alarm prone? Reduce the risk of
motion
-
triggered false alarms by making sure the location is free of vibration

and the
device
does

not face a local heat source, window, or areas with high pet activity.
(
Als
o,
m
ake sure area is free of elevated surfaces where pets may climb.)

Capture Orientation
-

Is the location ideally suited for detecting motion and capturing
images when there is an intruder or activity?
Consider where the subject is likely to enter
the

area and whether or not they will be facing the sensor.

Lighting Conditions
-

How good is the artificial and natural light? Will daytime and
nighttime lighting conditions ensure adequate image quality?




If possible, locate sensor within 100 ft of the pane
l

especially if there are many walls
between the sensor & panel
,

or if the panel and sensor are located on different floors.
While the transmitter may have an open air range of 400 ft
, installation site conditions
can reduce range considerably.




Avoid
facing the sensor toward or close to areas that may affect communication

such
as metallic objects or electronics likely to produce interference.
Verify se
nsor RF


com
munication at panel
, even if within recommended distance.




For optimal detection c
apabilities, mount the sensor where someone will most likely
walk across the sensor coverage area as opposed to directly towards the sensor.




By default, the
Image Sensor

is set to “Normal” sensitivity.
A more sensitive motion
profile (“High”)
and a less
sensitive profile
providing pet immunity for

pets up to 40 lbs
(“Low”) can be selected at the

control

panel or through the Alarm.com Dealer
Webs
ite.




The
Image Sensor

is designed for indoor use only and should not be installed outdoors.
For proper operation in pet immune applications, the room should be kept between 60°
and 110° F.




To maximize night vision image quality, do not orient sensor towards surfaces that wil
l
create glare when infrared flash occurs.
Avoid orienting the sensor such that the ceiling
or adjac
ent walls are in the camer
a
field of view.




The sensor
must

be mounted on a flat wall surface (do not set on shelf) free of


vibra
tions.


PROGRAMMING

The
Image Sensor

is enrolled in
to

the control panel via the Interactive Services menu,
which is visible when the Alarm.com Image Sensor
compatible
m
odule and daughterboard
are used.
Additional programming options available for configuring
and testing

include
:


A.
PIR Sensitivity Settings

By default, the
Image Sensor

is configured with a standard motion sensitivity profile

(“Nor
mal”)
.

The sensor can also be set to a more sensitive motion profile (“High”) and a
less sensitive profile
with pet immunity
for pets up to 40 lbs (“Low”).
The sensitivity can be
configured through the control panel or Alarm.com Dealer
Webs
ite.


On the XT

panel, enter the “Image Sensor Settings” menu under “Image Sensor Setup”
and scroll to the sensor to configure, press “OK
.
”

Scroll to “PIR Sensitivity

tatus
”

to exit out of the menu and save the
change.

On the
XTi panel,
enter the “Status” menu under “Image Sensor” and
press

the “Set”
button for the Image Sensor to configure. Select the
new profile and press “Set”.


(Note:
Using the high sensitivity profile increases the risk of false alarms, especially if the
sensor is facing windows or sources of heat.
W
hen mounting the sensor near windows or
heat sources
use cauti
on
and


select
the “Low”
PIR
sensitivity setting.)

B.
PIR Activation and Test Mode

During normal operation, the PIR can be activated at most once every three minutes while
the system is disarmed.
There is a 30
-
second delay after power
ing

before PIR detection is
active. For the first 3 minutes after a sensor is enrolled in a network, the sensor will enter
PIR test mode and the sensor LED will illuminate for 3 seconds
upon

e
a
ch motion
activation (at most every 8 seconds).
For additional testing time, put the sensor into test
mode via the control panel
or by tampering the sensor.

On the XT panel,
scroll

to “Image Sensor Settings” in the “Image Sensor Setup” menu.
Enter “Image Sensor Settings” and scroll to the

sensor to test, press “OK
.
”

Scroll to
“Image Sensor [y] Test PIR
,
”

press OK.
The screen will display “I.S. [y] in test for next 3

When
using a

Two Way Talking Touchscreen with the Simon XT panel,
Image Sensor
activity is not reported or visible on the

touchscreen
, except in alarms
.
When alarms are
tripped on an enrolled Image Sensor, the alarms are reported and displayed on the
2WTTS through the sensor 39 hardwire z
one
.
Periodic activations on hardwire zone 39
will appear on the touchscreen as a result of the
hardwire supervisions.

TROUBLESHOOTING

General Troubleshooting Steps


Verify Module Signal Strength:
If the Alarm.com
m
odule is having

a

problem signaling,
motion activations and image transmis
sion may be delayed or cancelled.


Verify Image Sensor RF Signal Strength:

The signal strength must be above 30% for
the sensor to function properly.


Verify Image Sensor Service Plan:

Image capture functionality depends on the

cus
tomer’s service plan.
Be sure the proper Image Sensor
a
dd
-
o
n is selected
;

delete
sensor

and re
-
enroll.


Sensor Not Enrolling


Verify
S
ensor is
R
eceiving
P
ower
:

After inserting batteries, the sensor LED should
illuminate or flash within 10 seconds.


Verify
S
ensor is
N
ot
C
ommunicating with
A
nother
N
etwork
:

If the sensor has been
previously enrolled in a different system

or daughterboard
, delete the sensor from the
system and hold the sensor reset button for 10 seconds to clear the sensor before
attempting to enroll the
sensor in a new network.

The sensor cannot be cleared if it is
currently communicating with its network. In this case the sensor must be deleted from
the system first through the control panel or remote command.


Sensor Non
-
Responsive


Verify Range
:

Under the “Image Sensor Setup” menu, scroll to “Image Sensor

Set
tings
,
”

select the sensor and verify under “Signal” that the sensor is registering a
strong signal. If signal strength is low, move non
-
responsive sensor closer to control
panel
,

verify
signal strength

and see if communication resumes.

Be sure that Image
S
ensor
d
aughterboard antenna is correctly routed as indicated in step 5 of the
installation pro
cedure.


Replace Batteries
:

Check battery level at the panel (under “Image Sensor
Settings”)
and install fresh sensor batteries.


False

Motion Activations


Check
E
nvironmental
E
lements
:

Heating or cooling elements may adversely affect
sensor performance.
Test sensor with and without these elements to determine

inter
ference.


Check
S
ensor
P
ositioning
:

The sensor may not be properly positioned to capture the
desired motion.
Check horizontal positioning of sensor and re
-
mount as necessary.


Check PIR
S
ensitivity
S
etting
:

Verify that the proper sensor motion profile has
been
selected through the setup menu or select a less sensitive profile.


S
ensor Tamper


The sensor detects changes in sensor orientation and can register a tamper regardless
of the sensor
-
back being removed.
A tamper will automatically be cleared after the
sensor has been returned to the upright position and has not detected any tamper
activity for 5 minutes.
With the sensor mounted, the tamper may also be cleared by
holding the sensor reset button for 3 seco
nds to initiate a power cycle.


Images Not Captured


Check Service Plan
:

Make sure the account has the proper Image Sensor
a
dd
-
o
n.
Images cannot be captured without an Image Sensor service plan.
For alarm

func
tional
ity, add the “Image Sensor Alarms” plan.
For alarms and enhanced
functionality, add the “Image Sensor Plus” plan.


Verify Sensor Rule
s
:


Make sure the sensor initialization process has been com
pleted.
O
n the Dealer
Webs
ite, make sure that the sensor
rules have been confirmed using the
“Rules Confirmed” column.


Enable Auto Uploads
:

During the first four hours after any sensor is enrolled onto the
system, alarm images will not automatically be uploaded to Alarm.com.
Automatic

up
loads are automatically enabled after four hours.
Enable uploads sooner from the
Dealer
Webs
ite.
On the Image Sensor Plus plan, view and request captured images
from any test alarms from the
C
ustomer
W
ebsite.
