The ADT Motion Detector Pet Immune is a pet immune passive infrared (PIR) motion detector, also called the Aurora. This Motion now replaces the old one. The Aurora works as a hardwired motion detector, meaning the compatibility works with any hardwired security system. The Honeywell Aurora comes equipped with split-zone optics technology which provides protection against false alarms by pets and animals up to 40 pounds. The Aurora has a coverage range of approximately 35 ft. by 40 ft., which extends from the motion in a 90° pattern. The ADT Honeywell Aurora- a versatile wall mounted motion ideal for most residential as well as commercial indoor applications.

The Aurora’s sleek and small style blends seamlessly with any decor and works in both surface mount and corner mount installations. Ideal recommended mounting height approximates to 7 feet, however an adjustable lens angle mounts the Aurora from 6.5 to 9 feet and adjusted for optimum protection. For installations when you use the pet-immunity feature, set the PIR sensitivity to standard. Mount the detector in an area where animals and pets cannot come within 6 feet of the Aurora.. This will allow you to arm your system in away mode with pets under 40 lbs. inside the property.

ADT Motion Detector Pet Immune Installation:

The Honeywell Aurora requires a four wire connection back to the alarm control panel. Terminals 1 & 2 connect power to the motion from the security system’s auxiliary power circuit. The Aurora requires 4mA at standby and a maximum of 10mA when in alarm. Terminals 3 & 4 are data connections and should be connected to a zone loop.

Walk-test The Aurora motion detector upon installation and at regular intervals during its use. Make sure that the temperature in the room is normal during testing. Also walk all routes a potential intruder could take. The red LED will provide feedback showing when the Aurora motion trips. When planning your system or installing a Honeywell Aurora motion; make sure to consider the likely path of an intruder, and aim the detector across high traffic areas.

False Alarms:

If you are having trouble with false alarms; remember to check potential draft sources such as air conditioning vents that could be pointed towards drapes, lighting fixtures, or other objects that could cause movement.
