Issue
What would cause the LED to flash?
Solution
Here is a list of possible reasons for the DS774Z Red LED to flash.
Flashing 2 times is a Motion Monitor Timeout
Flashing 3 times Antimask Detection
Flashing 4 times PIR Self test failure
Flashing 5 times Low Input Power or Relay Failure
Issue
The DS160/161 fails to operate after multiple trips or cycles.
Solution
Cause: Possible wrong part (Op- Amp)
There are some problems withLot #'s 578C, 579C, 580C with the DS160/161. The DS160/161 could stop detecting after multiple activation, and will not work.
Send the customer an advance replacement. Anything passed Lot 580C should have the fix
Not all DS160/161 are a problem.
There are 2 tests performed on the FA206i, Walk Test and Transmission Test.
Walk Test: With cover in place, quickly (less than 1/2 second) pass a magnet near the Test Mode reed switch. This will activate a 1 minute walk test mode where the LED will light with each trip but no alarm signals will be transmitted.
Transmission Test: With cover in place, hold a magnet near the Test Mode reed switch for at least one second. This will activate a one minute transmission test mode where the device will transmit alarm and restoral cycles at regular intervals for 1 minute.
Note: The FA206i LED only lights when in test mode.
The door controlled by the door control module doesn't remain released when the REX sensor configured as 'resettable' continues to detect motion.

Issue
What is the Bosch part number for the Inovonics FA206DS wireless motion detector?
Solution
The Bosch part number for the FA206DS would be the DS775RF and is used with the Inovonics FA400 receiver and the Bosch D8125INV wireless interface for Bosch D7412G/D9412G control panels.
Issue
Does Bosch make a mounting bracket for the DS775I?
Solution
Yes:
B335 = Low profile mount bracket
B328 = Gimbal mount bracket
B338 = Ceiling mount bracket
Issue
DS936 motion is causing an alarm when it is not seeing motion.
Solution
On the older version of this motion there will be a bank of DIP switches with four switches. Set the relay #4 to OFF for NC Alarm Relay Operation.
Issue
How to setup the DS835 for application containing a pet.
Solution
1. Mount the detector 6.5ft (2M) high and set the PIR angle to -5 degrees.
2. Set the PIR sensitivity for Standard (STD).
3. Mount where the animals can not come within 6ft (1.8M) of the detector by climbing on furniture, boxes or other objects.
4. Do not remove the Look Down lens mask.
5. Do not aim the detector at stairways the animal can climb on.
6. Adjust the microwave range for the minimum acceptable coverage for the room in which the detector is installed.
Issue
What does it mean when the LED flashes on the motion (PIR)?
Solution
LED Cause
On Unit Alarm or Stored Alarm
Flashing 2 Motion Monitor Timeout
Flashing 3 Antimask Detection
Flashing 4 PIR Self test Failure
Flashing 5 Low Input Power or Relay Failure
