To install the eMACROS 1/2 Mile Long Range Solar Wireless Driveway Alarm, follow these steps:

1. Base Station:
- Plug the Base Station into an outlet using the AC adapter. It can also run on (4) AA batteries for up to 2 weeks as a backup in case of a power outage.
- The red power light will illuminate on #3 when the Base Station is on. To turn the Base Station on/off, hold down the power button until you hear the on/off tone.
- Adjust the Base Station volume as needed using the adjustable Volume +/- buttons. Volume adjustments will be heard on subsequent alarm activations, not while adjustments are being made. Powering off the base station will reset the volume to the factory setting.

2. Sensor:
- Before installing the PIR Sensor, recharge the sensor (with the attached 18650 battery) using the AC adapter to ensure a full charge. The blue light will illuminate while charging and turn off once the battery is fully charged.
- High/Low/Off Switch: Open the black silicone seal cap at the bottom of the PIR Motion Sensor, then turn on the sensor by switching to High or Low. Set the detection range to High (30 feet), Low (20 feet), or turn the sensor off.
- CH 1-4 Switch: Select a different channel for each outside sensor. When detecting movements, a sensor eye will flash red only when assigned to lines 1 and 2, not lines 3 or 4. Each separate channel uses a unique chime, allowing you to match different chimes with different channels.
- Test the PIR Motion Sensor by waving your hand in front of the sensor. The Base Station will produce a unique tone based on the sensor's setting.

3. Installing the Sensor:
- Mount the waterproof PIR Motion Sensor vertically on a solid surface 3-5 feet (1-1.5m) above the ground (rotate sensor to access xxxx holes). The sensor should be able to swivel as needed. Position the sensor to avoid direct sunlight shining on the sensor eye while simultaneously keeping the solar cell facing upward.
- For vehicle alert installation, the best mounting position for detecting vehicles is about 4 feet (1.2m) high. Adjust the sensor eye with a horizontal angle towards the engine of the car.
- Note: The sensors operate best in the -4°F to 140°F temperature range. They will not work properly outside of this temperature range.
