Model RWA300R
Wireless Pedestrian & Vehicle Alert
Overview
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from
electrocution, outputs are suitable ONLY for controlling low
voltage devices, 24V max, ac or dc.
The Alert uses a Passive Infra-Red sensor to detect
movement of people and vehicles, while allowing
small animals to pass through undetected.
Carton Inventory
Battery: The AA batteries (not provided) in the PIR
Motion Sensor will last up to 2 years depending on
use (Lithium batteries recommended for colder
environments). If Base Station battery (optional) is
low, it will beep every few minutes. Replace with
9-Volt battery (not provided). For peak performance
inspect batteries annually and replace as needed.

PIR Motion Sensor Installation
Step 7
Step 5
Mount PIR Motion Sensor
horizontally on solid surface a few
feet off the ground and within 900'
of Base Station (rotate sensor to
access screw holes). Unit should be
able to swivel as needed. Attach sun/rain shield.
NOTE: Keep PIR Motion Sensor antenna away from
metal objects. Do not mount PIR Motion Sensor in
direct sunlight, near moving tree branches, or in the
path of a sprinkler system.
OPTIONAL
A
Plug in Base Station. Adhere
rubber pads to bottom. A
9-Volt battery (not provided) is
optional in case of power
failures.
Vehicle Alert Installation: For cars, the best
mounting position is about 4' high, between 10-20'
back, and angled to see the back of car after passing
the sensor.

Station and PIR
Motion Sensor are
in close proximity
to each other.

ACCESSORY
The Base Station has a relay which can activate other
devices such as a low voltage doorbell, buzzer or
light. The accessory device will need a separate
power supply. The accessories can be purchased at
any electronics store.
B Within 5 seconds, wave hand in front of PIR Motion
Sensor. Test light will illuminate and Base Station
will buzz.
NOTE: Output switching capacity is low voltage
(max 24V dc or ac).

Troubleshooting
The Alert is giving false alarms.
The PIR Motion Sensor lights up, but the Base
Station does not respond.
The PIR Motion Sensor must be programmed to Base
Check for moving tree branches or insects in sensor
window. PIR sensor can also be triggered by light
shining directly in sensor window, such as reflected
sunlight, or motion in front of a light source.
It is possible that condensation has built up on the
sensor. Wipe condensation from PIR Motion Sensor with
cotton swab. Let it sit inside for a few hours, open to the
air, without the batteries and it should correct itself.
Check Sensor Switches on PIR Motion Sensor. See
Switch Settings.
Station (See Step 6).
Ensure Base Station is on and is not muted.
If the green power light is not lit or is flashing, press
the Mute Button on the top of the Base Station to wake
it up.
If the green power is illuminated, look at the two small
white Base Station switches next to the Learn Button.
The #1 Dip Switch should be down, towards the circuit
board. If it is up, the Base Station has been muted. If the
Base Station signals when you press the Learn Button,
it is not muted.
Base Station beeps every ten minutes.
The battery in the Base Station is low. Replace with
9-Volt battery or operate it using AC Adapter.
The Alert is not getting expected transmission
range.
Keep both antennas vertical and keep PIR Motion
Sensor antenna away from trees and metal objects.
Ensure Base Station is in clearest possible sight of the
PIR Motion Sensor. The less objects between the
devices, the longer the range.
Base Station is not very loud.
Adjust the volume of speaker. An accessory such as a
low voltage doorbell, buzzer or light can be attached to
the relay switch. The accessory device will need a
separate power supply.
NOTE: Output switching capacity is low voltage
(24V max, ac or dc).
PIR Motion Sensor is detecting motion only part of
the time.
To detect cars, it is best to mount PIR Motion Sensor at
height of car’s motor and have it between ten and
twenty feet from the road. Swivel sensor as needed.
