Help........please! Wiring of PIR sensor


Recommended Posts

Hi, i have been having problems with my alarm triggering, it says sensor 3 which is a PIR sensor in teb kitchen. Ive had a look and cant see anything obvious, its been fitted for years by the looks of it. Anyway i covered it and set the alarm and it was still tripping ever 20 or 30 mins, so I put this down to a faulty sensor.

The original are Texcom Veritas PIR sensors, and i purchased a Honeywell PIR sensor as a replacement. 

 

The I.D and wiring on the old Texcom terminals went:

A =  Brown

B =  Orange

C = Red

D = Black

E = blue 1

F = blue 2

 

The new Honeywell goes:

T2 =

T1 = 

NC = 

C = 

V - = 

V + =

 

Im pretty sure that on the new Honeywell Sensor, the Red is V+ and the black is V -, and blue 1 and blue 2 are for the T1 & T2 (im guessing tamper? So ive tried the orange and brown in both the NC & C positions and nothing.......

 

There are 2 green wires connected into a choc bloc, along with two white and two yellows. 

 

Can anyone help me where im going wrong please?
