Question

How do I set the Off Delay Time on my ActiveEye (MS16A) motion sensor?

Answer

You can set the delay time before your home automation motion sensor (MS13A, MS14A) sends an Off command after turning a module on. To check the current Off command delay time, press the House/On button once. The red LED light should flash. Press and hold the Unit/Off button. The green LED light turns on. 3 seconds later the red LED light reports the delay setting as follows:

  • 1 blink for Analog: i.e. the setting on the dial on the top of the unit, from one to sixty minutes.
  • 2 blinks for 2 minutes.
  • 3 blinks for 4 minutes.
  • 4 blinks for 8 minutes.
  • 5 blinks for 16 minutes.
  • 6 blinks for 32 minutes.
  • 7 blinks for 64 minutes.
  • 8 blinks for 128 minutes.
  • 9 blinks for 256 minutes.

To change this, press the House/On button once. The red LED light will flash. Press and hold the Unit/Off button. The green LED light turns on. Three seconds later the red LED light reports the delay setting, as shown above. Release and immediately press the Unit/Off button the number of times for the delay you want. Hold the button for 3 seconds after the last press. The red LED light then reports the setting with the appropriate number of flashes. Release the button, and you are all set up.
