Don’t be fooled by its small size! Next-generation Split-Zone Optics and advanced ASIC-based processing give the pet immune Aurora laser-sharp detection.
This review is from: Honeywell Ademco AURORA PIR Motion Sensor
I bought this sensor to replace my old motion sensor which was setting false alarms from our 2 cats. I put this sensor in the same place as the old one. It required a different wiring hookup, which took a few minutes to figure out. The instructions included were not much help in this regard. It requires +, -, and a loop (2 wires) for the alarm trip. My old sensor only required +, -, and one wire for alarm trip. Luckily for me, the original installer used a 4 wire cable, so I had to just connect the 4th wire at the sensor, and the 4th wire in the alarm control box. It also required a resistor which I also had already. But I’m not sure if that would be specific to my alarm. We have been using about 3 weeks now, and no false alarms …yet! If we get any I will update this review.

For your money, this is a very good Infrared sensor! It’s amazing that ADEMCO has this IR sensor priced so reasonably, but here they are…
Small, EASY to mount and a good buy for most homes, garage or workshop. Just DON’T FORGET to use some DAP or other sealant to COMPLETELY seal the hole where you insert the alarm-connection cable! KEEP those spiders away from the innards.
I highly recommend this product, but it MAY not be the best choice for business or locations with high-dollar items.

It’s the third PIR Motion Sensor that I buy from Honeywell. The last 2 ones have more than 5 years and still works very well. I bought this one to cover another area and the installation is very simple. Do not forget to buy a bracket if you use in a wall, because this sensor does not provide it. I strongly recommend it.
