X10 MS10A Set Up And Operating Instructions
Installation
1. Install four AA alkaline batteries in the battery
compartment on the MS10A. Observe polarity.
4. Set the slide switch on the back of the MS10A to 1 to
trip the alarm if only one movement is detected (most
sensitive). Set to 2 to trip the alarm only after 2
movements are detected (helps prevent false alarms).
4. Press the CODE button on the back of the MS10A
with the point of a pencil.
5. Set the INSTALL/RUN switch on the Security
Console to INSTALL.
6. Press TEST on the MS10A. The Console emits a tone
and the next unused zone indicator lights up.
7. Set the Console's slide switch back to RUN1 or RUN2.
8. To set up additional Motion Detectors (up to 16*)
repeat the above steps.
*Note: you can install a total of 16 zones in the Console.
This can be a combination of Door/Window Sensors and
Motion Detectors. E.G. 8 Door/Window Sensors AND 8
Motion Detectors. See your Security System Owner’s
Manual for more information.
Motion Detector, Model MS10A Set Up and Operating Instructions

MS10A-998DR
If the Console is NOT armed and in the RUN2 mode, you
will hear a chime. If the Console IS armed the Motion
Detector will trip the alarm and sound the siren.
After you walk past the Motion Detector, it will not see
motion again for about a minute (conserves battery power).
Replacing batteries
Slide the battery compartment cover off and replace the
battery with a 9V alkaline type. After replacing the battery,
the following steps are necessary to determine that the
Console still recognizes the MS10A.
1. Place the Console’s slide switch to RUN2.
2. Press TEST on the MS10A. If the Console chimes, it
recognizes the MS10A and no further action is
necessary.
If the Console did not chime:
1. Place the Console’s slide switch to INSTALL.
2. Press TEST on the MS10A. The MS10A’s red indicator
light flashes, and MS10A transmits a random code to
the console. The Console acknowledges this with a beep
and logs in the MS10A to the next available zone. To
make sure the Console logs the MS10A back into the
same zone it was allocated to before you changed the
battery, wait 4 hours after removing the old battery
before reinstalling (until the zone indicator on the
Console starts flashing).

Operation
When the Security System is armed using a Key Chain
Remote the Motion Detector will always trip the alarm
when it sees motion. When the system is armed using an
SH624 Remote Control it can be armed in the Home or
Away mode. When armed in the Home mode, Motion
Detectors will NOT trip the alarm.
Place the Motion Detector on a bookshelf, or attach it to a
wall about 6 feet off the ground, using the supplied
mounting bracket. Wait about 45 seconds for the Motion
Detector to settle then walk past it.
