Motion Sensor Gen 2 Installation Guide

Updated 

Overview

Motion Sensors are always on the lookout for uninvited guests. They can detect motion within 35 feet, with a 90-degree field of view. The Motion Sensor Gen 2 also has Pet Mode to distinguish between people and pets. 

Before Getting Started

You’ll need to install your Base Station and make sure it has the latest firmware prior to getting started. 

What’s in the Box

  • Motion Sensor Gen 2 with mounting plate

  • Screws (optional for permanent mounting)

If you want to mount your Motion Sensor Gen 2 on a wall using its adhesive backing, make sure the surface has been wiped clean and has had time to dry.

If you plan on wall mounting your Motion Sensor Gen 2 with the included screws, you’ll want to also have a Phillips head screwdriver available.
