eMACROS HS002W Wireless Solar Driveway Alarm System
Overview
The Wifi Motion Alert ranges up to 1/2 mile (800 meters) in the open air. It uses a Passive Infrared (P.I.R.) Motion Sensor to detect movement of people and vehicles while allowing small animals to pass through undetected. An AC adapter powers the Base Station; it can also run on 4AA batteries as backup in case of a power outage for 4 weeks. You will receive the notifications on your cell phone when your sensor is triggered.

Operation & Features
Base Station
Power
- Power on: Short-press the power button, with one beep.
- Power off: Long-press the power button for 3s, with a long beep.
Volume+/Volume-
- Volume Up and Down: short beep when adjusting the volume, no beep when reaching the highest or lowest volume.
- Network connection: long-press the Volume+ or Volume- button for 3S to enter the network configuration mode; the red indicator light changes from slow flashing to fast flashing.
Passive Infrared (PIR) Motion Sensor
- Before installing the PIR Sensor, recharge the sensor (with 18650 battery attached) using the AC adapter to ensure a full charge. The blue light will illuminate while charging. The blue light will turn off once the battery is fully charged.
Note: The sensor has been tested several times in the factory. If the blue light won’t illuminate, the battery may be fully charged. You can install it directly.
- High / Low / Off Switch: First, open the black silicone seal cap at the bottom of the PIR Motion Sensor, then turn on the sensor by switching to High or Low. Set the detection range to High (30feet), Low (20 feet), or turn the sensor off.
- CH 1-4 Switch: Select a different channel for each outside sensor. If installing multiple PIR Motion Sensors, ensure that each sensor is set to a different Channel/Zone.
Note: Each Separate channel uses a unique chime, allowing you to match different chimes with different channels.
- Turn on the PIR Motion Sensor by waving your hand in front of the sensor. The Base Station will produce a unique tone based on the sensor’s setting.
- When detecting movements, a sensor eye will flash red only when assigned to lines 1 and 2, not lines 3 or 4.
Setting Up Your Home Security System
Pairing Sensors:
- In Receiver: Long-press the power button for 55 to enter the pairing mode with a long beep, then 4 blue lights flash with one beep.

- In App: You can also pair the sensor in the App after the receiver connects to wifi. Click the Settings in the App, turn on the Add a Sub Device, then the 4 blue lights will flash for 30 seconds with a short beep, then trigger the sensor, the receiver will produce a unique tone based on the channel automatically. The receiver and sensor are paired successfully.
Clear the pairing:
- In Receiver: If you need to clear the paired Sensor, long-press the Power button for 55, plug in the USB cable, or insert batteries to enter the clear pairing mode. Four blue indicator lights will be on after one beep, then turn off in turn. After one beep, the clearing is complete, and you can return to normal mode.
- In App: You can also clear the paired Sensor in the App by pressing Delete All Sub-Devices in the Settings.

Product Installation
P.I.R. Motion Sensor Installation
- Mount the waterproof PIR. Motion sensor vertically on a solid surface 4.5-6 feet (1.5-2m) above the ground, and make sure the detected object is within 30 feet when the sensitivity is set to High. Please refer to the below for the installation height and detection angle.
- Rotate the sensor to access the screw holes.
- To prevent or reduce false alarms (going off), the sensor can adjust the angle as needed. Position the sensor to avoid direct sunlight to the sensor eyes while keeping the solar panel facing up.
Note: Pairing and testing are required before installation, and ensure that the sensor is fully charged.

Troubleshooting
The PIR Motion Sensor operates, but the base station does not respond.
Check the sensor switch settings and make sure the sensor and base station are in the valid range.
The PIR Motion Sensor is detecting motion only part of the time.
Set the PIR Sensor Switch to High sensitivity setting. To detect vehicles, the PIR sensor detects the movements with heat sources. Please adjust the sensor eye with the horizontal angle to the engine of the car. Swivel the sensor to obtain the best line of sight to a vehicle.
The system is giving false alarms.
Check for moving tree branches or insects in the sensor window and remove as necessary. Check the Sensor Switches on the PIR Motion Sensor. Ensure that sunlight is not shining directly onto the sensor eye.
The system is not getting the expected transmission range.
Ensure that the PIR Motion Sensors are vertically aligned, not attached to the far side of a tree, and away from metal objects. Ensure that the Base Station has the clearest possible line of sight to the sensors. The fewer objects between the devices, the longer the range.
The Solar Panel stopped working.
Please clean the dust from the solar panel after using it for a period of time.
How to prevent the sensor from getting water inside.
Please tighten the black rubber cover seal at the bottom of the sensor.
If the sensor continuously goes off.
Please cover the sensor to confirm if it still goes off or gets a false alarm. If so, your receiver may get interference from other sensors. Please contact our service support; we will do our best to make it right for you.
