Honeywell IS335 Frequently Asked Questions
What Is a Pet Immune Motion Sensor?
When a motion sensor uses "pet immunity", it will detect human walking upright, but not a small animal walking close to the ground. Learn about pet immune motion sensors.
How Are Motion Sensors Wired?
The typical hardwired motion sensor will use a 4-wire connection, with two wires for data and two wires for power. Most use Normally Closed wiring. Learn about motion sensors.
Which Alarm System Works w/ a Honeywell IS335 Motion Sensor?
The Honeywell IS335 is a hardwired motion sensor that works with many alarm systems. It uses 2 wires for power and 2 wires for data. Learn about the Honeywell IS335 Motion Sensor.
Is the IS335 Compatible with the VISTA-50P?
The IS335 is a hardwired motion detecting sensor that can be used with a Honeywell VISTA-50P System. Learn about the Honeywell IS335 Motion Sensor and how it is used.
Do Pets Set Off Motion Detectors?
A pet should not set off a motion detector if the device offers pet immunity and has been mounted properly. Find out how to prevent your pets from setting off motion sensors.
Where Should I Install My Motion Detector?
There are several things you should keep in mind when choosing a location for a motion detector. The ideal location for a motion detector is in the corner of a room and away from any windows. The device should be placed 6 to 8 feet off the ground. Learn more about where to install a motion sensor.
What is the Best Honeywell Motion Sensor?
Honeywell offers several security sensors that are designed to detect motion. The best one really depends on the type of setting that it will be used in. Once you consider the application of the sensor, you will be able to determine the best one for your needs. Learn more about motion sensors.
What Brand of PIR Motion Can I Use with a VISTA 20P?
The Honeywell VISTA 20P can use any hardwired 12Volt DC passive infrared (PIR) motion detector, and any Honeywell 5800 series wireless motion sensor. Wired motions will require a 4-wire connection to the panel. Wireless motion detectors will require a wireless receiver to be used.
Why Do My Pets Trigger My Pet Immune Motions Detectors?
Pet immune motion detectors have limitations and require special consideration before installation. Learn more about using motions when you have pets!
Will Curtain Movement Set off Infrared Motion Sensors?
Moving but otherwise inanimate objects, like curtains, in an empty room can activate an infrared motion sensor, causing a false alarm. Read on to find out why.
