Title: MS10A - 1 or 2
Post by: PajamaGuy-ß on September 21, 2008, 08:48:48 AM

Expurt Help Wanted!

The data sheet for the MS10A sez, "Set to 2 to trip the alarm only after 2 movements are detected (helps prevent false alarms)."   It also sez that after a red-light blink it won't see motion again for about 45 seconds.

My questions are:
1. When set on "2" does ANY RF transmission occur on 1st movement?
2. Does the RED led indicate RF transmission or IR detection?
3. When there's constant motion, what is the sampling delay between motion 1 and motion 2?

Thanks!

From X10 -

1) No.
2) In mode 2, the first blink indicates IR detection only; the second indicates both RF transmission and IR detection.
3) Ten seconds.

That should say "after a red-light blink that includes RF transmission..."
