Driveway Alert

INSTRUCTION MANUAL

EN MDRIVE2260214E

ENGLISH

Long driveway? Security conscious? Is that car driving up your driveway, or just passing by?

Can’t hear someone knocking on your front door while you’re at the back of your home?

Presenting the Driveway Alert from Swann, the unique system which will let you know when

people are coming to visit!

How does it work?

Basically, there are three parts to the Driveway Alert system.

1. The Indoor Alarm Receiver works as an alarm buzzer and a doorchime. It monitors for

signals coming from the Passive Infrared (PIR) Motion Sensors and the Doorbell, and

activates an alert in response to that signal. It also features a series of LED indicators

on the front of the unit so you can visually tell where an alert is coming from. The Indoor

Alarm Receiver can be either mounted to a fixed location or completely free standing.

2. The PIR Motion Sensors enable you to monitor for movement in two zones or areas

surrounding your property. Each contains a miniature radio transmitter, which sends a

signal to the Indoor Alarm Receiver whenever motion is detected. The motion sensors

should be deployed outdoors, where there is a clear view of the driveway or the likely

entry and exit paths that you plan to secure.

3. The Doorbell enables visitors to send a chime to the Indoor Alarm Receiver so you know

that someone’s waiting at your doorstep. As it is neither water nor weatherproof, it must

be installed in a sheltered location.

Operation Guide

Installing Batteries

The Indoor Alarm Receiver and Motion Sensors require batteries. These are necessary

for the devices to be able to receive and transmit active wireless signals. For best

performance, use fresh, high quality alkaline batteries.

Note: We recommend changing the batteries in the receiver and sensors every six months.

Indoor Alarm Receiver

• The Indoor Alarm Receiver requires 3 x AA batteries (not included) to operate.

• To install batteries, slide off the battery cover on the back of the unit to reveal the battery

compartment and then insert batteries matching the polarity (+ and -) markings inside

the battery compartment.

• Replace the battery cover until it clicks into place.

Motion Sensors

• Each motion sensor requires a 9V battery (not included) to operate.

• To install battery, remove the two screws on the back of the motion sensor securing the

battery compartment cover in place using a small Phillips head screwdriver, attach a

battery to the 9V connector and then place the battery into its compartment.

• Replace the battery cover. Ensure that it makes complete contact with the silicone seal

lining the battery compartment. If moisture is able to enter the motion sensor, it will

adversely affect performance dramatically.

Doorbell

• If you need to replace the battery, insert a small flat-head screwdriver into the small

notch on the base of the doorbell and then push against the tab inside to lift the front

cover off.

• Replace with same type of battery (1 x CR2032 battery). Ensure the battery is secured

properly before refitting the front cover.

Placement of the Motion Sensor

The range of the wireless transmission for the Driveway Alert system is dependent on

local environment (i.e., obstructions, weather, signal interferences, etc) and can be up to

approximately 80 meters (around 263 feet) – take this into consideration when selecting

positions for the motion sensors and make sure you test if the location you place the motion

sensor is in range before fitting in place.

The motion sensor, under typical conditions, is

designed to detect people and vehicles moving

within an area of approximately 6 meters (around

20 feet) at a 100° angle from the sensor.

For best coverage and to maximize detection,

place the sensor approximately 2m/6ft off the

ground, pointing on a slightly downwards angle.

Operation Guide

Changing the Doorbell Chime

The Indoor Alarm Receiver provides a choice of 16 different chimes.

To change the doorbell chime:

1. Press the Chime Select button on the back of the Indoor Alarm Receiver. The next

chime is played. Keep pressing the button until you hear a chime you like.

2. Press and hold the Doorbell Select button on the the back of the Indoor Alarm Receiver

until the Doorbell LED indicator lights up.

3. Within 10 seconds, press and hold the Chime button on the Doorbell until the chime

indicator stops blinking. The selected chime will now be heard whenever the doorbell

is pressed.

Adjusting the Alarm/Chime Volume

To adjust the volume of the alarm/chime, use the volume control slide switch on the back of

the Indoor Alarm Receiver. There are three settings available: low, medium and high.

Turning Off/On the Sensor Alarm and Doorbell Chime

Like some peace and quiet for a period of time? You have the ability to put the alarm/chime

for each individual sensor and the doorbell on “silent” mode.

1. If mounted, remove the Indoor Alam Receiver from the mounting hook.

2. Press any Sensor 1/Sensor 2/Doorbell Select button on the back of the Indoor Alarm

Receiver once to turn off the alarm/chime from that particular component. You will

hear two beeps from the Indoor Alarm Receiver, indicating that the alarm/chime has

turned off.

3. To turn the alarm/chime back on, press the corresponding Sensor 1/Sensor 2/Doorbell

Select button again. You will hear a single beep from the Indoor Alarm Receiver,

indicating that the alarm/chime has turned on.

Note: The LED indicators on the front of the Indoor Alarm Receiver will continue to blink

whenever the unit receives a signal from the corresponding sensor or doorchime.

Tips & Tricks:

• Although the sensors are weather resistant, they are not waterproof – Installing in a

covered area where it is under an awning or eaves is recommended. Exposure to rain

and moisture could adversely affect the performance and durability of the sensors.

• Any moving heat source can trigger the sensor. For example, a moving shadow on a

sunny day may trigger the sensor, or the sun coming out from behind clouds. False

triggers should be rare, but will occasionally occur.

• Wandering small animals (such as a cat or similar) can, under some circumstances,

trigger the sensors. Therefore, we suggest that the motion sensors are not suited to

areas where pets are routinely kept.

• Ideally, the sensor should only see your driveway, and the only moving object(s) in front

of the sensor should be the car(s) or person(s) you want to detect.

Mounting

Indoor Alarm Receiver

There is no requirement to mount the Indoor Alarm Receiver. As it is also completely

freestanding, you may find it more convenient to place it on a shelf or table. One of the

benefits of a battery operated wireless receiver is that if you have a large house, you can take

the receiver with you. No more missing visitors because you were all the way at the back of

the house or by the pool!

If you would like to mount the receiver, you simply

need to screw the mounting hook to a wall using

the four screws provided and then hang the Indoor

Alarm Receiver onto the hook.

Motion Sensor

1. Choose the mounting location and then mark

the screw hole location with a pencil.

2. Drill the supplied screw into the marked

location, leaving approximately ¼” of the screw

protruding from the mounting surface. You

may need to use a wall plug depending on the

surface.

3. Place the sensor’s hanger slot (see opposite)

over the screw and then shift the sensor

downwards to ensure it sits on the screw firmly.

Doorbell

The doorbell can be mounted by sticking it to a wall using the included adhesive strip(s).

1. Choose the area you want to mount the doorbell - flat, smooth surfaces are ideal.

2. Peel off the covering of the adhesive strip, and then attach the doorbell to the wall in the

location you want.

Mounting Hook

WARNING: When tting the screws into the wall, make sure you

are not inserting them anywhere near electrical wires, including

wires that may be behind the wall. If you are unsure at all, please

get a professional to check rst and install the screws for you.

Troubleshooting

Problem: My motion sensor isn’t detecting movement.

Solution:

• The motion sensor may not be within range of the Indoor Alarm Receiver. Sometimes

obstructions between the sensor and receiver such as walls, metal objects, etc in the

environment can affect the sensor’s functional range.

• The battery in the motion sensor is weak. It is recommended to replace the battery

every 6 months to maintain optimum performance.

Problem: The sensor LED indicator on the Indoor Alarm Receiver is blinking but I don’t

hear any alarm when my motion sensor is triggered.

Solution:

• The alarm for the corresponding sensor has been muted on the receiver. See “Turning

Off/On the Sensor Alarm and Doorbell Chime” on page 5 for instructions on how to

turn it back on.

Problem: I keep getting false alarms!

Solution:

• The sensors use passive infrared to detect changes in temperature so check that there

are no shifting heat sources in view of the motion sensor(s). This includes the obvious

things, such as moving pets or people, but also things such as a moving shadow on

a hot day (such as the shadow of a tree blowing in the wind). Sometimes reflected

infrared heat from the sun is enough to trigger the sensor.

• If you’ve had the Driveway Alert system installed for some time, then the batteries in

the sensors might be running low, causing erratic behavior.

• If you’re using the Driveway Alert system in an environment with a high level of

radio ‘noise’ (that is, somewhere with multiple wireless devices in use) then these

interfering signals might be interpreted as the system as alarm signals. This should,

however, be a very rare occurrence.

Problem: The chime doesn’t sound.

Solution:

• Check the doorbell battery - the chime indicator should light up when the chime button

is pressed. Replace if necessary.

• The chime has been muted on the receiver. See “Turning Off/On the Sensor Alarm and

Doorbell Chime” on page 5 for instructions on how to turn it back on.
