Frequently Asked Questions - VT-81013 V-TAC

How do I install the V-TAC VT-81013 motion detector?

Mount the detector on a wall or corner at a height of 2-3 meters using the included bracket. Insert 2 AA batteries, then adjust the detection angle and sensitivity as needed. Refer to the manual for detailed steps.

What type of batteries does the VT-81013 use?

It uses 2 x 1.5V AA batteries (not included). Alkaline batteries are recommended for longer life. Rechargeable batteries may also work but with reduced performance.

How do I adjust the sensitivity of the motion detector?

Open the device and locate the sensitivity potentiometer (usually labeled 'SENS'). Turn it clockwise to increase sensitivity, counterclockwise to decrease. Test by walking in front of the sensor.

Why does my VT-81013 trigger false alarms?

False alarms can be caused by pets, moving objects (curtains, fans), or placement near heat sources. Reduce sensitivity, reposition the detector, or avoid areas with rapid temperature changes. Also ensure the lens is clean.

How do I reset the motion detector to factory settings?

Remove the batteries, wait 30 seconds, then reinsert them. This resets the device. If the problem persists, adjust the settings manually as per the manual.

Is the V-TAC VT-81013 weatherproof?

No, it is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to rain, snow, or high humidity may damage the electronics. Use a weatherproof housing if needed.

What should I do if the motion detector stops working?

First, check the batteries: replace them if low. Ensure the detector is within wireless range of the receiver (if applicable). Clean the lens and verify the sensitivity setting. If still not working, contact V-TAC support.

How do I clean the motion detector?

Turn off the device and remove batteries. Wipe the exterior with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use water, solvents, or abrasive cleaners. For the lens, gently brush off dust.

Can I use the VT-81013 with a home alarm system?

Yes, the detector sends a wireless signal at 433 MHz. It can trigger compatible alarm panels or receivers. Check your alarm system's compatibility and pair the devices per instructions.

What is the detection range and angle of the VT-81013?

The detection range is up to 12 meters with a 180-degree horizontal angle. Optimal performance is achieved when the subject moves across the sensor's field of view.

FR

1. Please make sure to turn off the power before starting the installation.
2. Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician.

FUNCTION

1. Can identify day and night: It can work in the daytime and at night when it is adjusted on the "sun" position (max). It can work in the ambient light less than 3LUX when it is adjusted on the "3" position (min). As for the adjustment pattern, please refer to the testing pattern.
2. It detects human breathing and keeps lamp on continuously, When you stand in the place less than 3m to the sensor.
3. When you walk to the place 3-4.5m to the sensor, it detects human motion and turn on the lamp and then turn off after the setted time if there is no movement during the lighting time.
4. Time-Delay is added continually: When it receives the second induction signals within the first induction, it will restart to time from the moment.
5. Time—Delay is adjustable. It can be set according to the consumer's desire. The minimum time is 10 sec ± 3 sec . The maximum is 12 min ± 1 min .

SENSOR INFORMATION

INSTALLATION

• Switch off the power and unload the transparent cover.
• Connect the power to connection terminal of sensor according to connection-wire diagram.
  • Install back the transparent cover into the original location.
• Fold the metal spring of the sensor upwards and then put the sensor into the suitable hole or installation box. Releasing the spring, the sensor will be set in this installation position.
  • After finishing installing, turn on the power and then test it.

WIRING DIAGRAM

TEST

1. Turn the LUX knob clockwise on the maximum (sun). Turn the TIME knob anti-clockwise on the minimum (IOs).
2. When you switch on the power, the light will be on at once. And 10sec±3sec later the light will be off automatically. Then if the sensor receives induction signal again, it can work normally.
3. When you walk to the place less than 3m to the sensor, it detects human breathing and keeps lamp on. When you walk to the place more than 3m and then the lamp will be off after the set-ted time if there is no another movement.
4. When you walk to the place 3-4.5m to the sensor, it detects human motion and turn on the lamp as the setted time.
5. When the sensor receives the second induction signals within the first induction, it will restart to time from the moment.
6. Turn LUX knob anti-clockwise on the minimum (3). If the ambient light is less than 3LUX (darkness), the inductor load could work when it receives induction signal.

Note: when testing in daylight, please turn LUX knob to ⚙ (SUN) position, otherwise the sensor lamp could not work!

NOTES

• Electrician or experienced human can install it.
- Can not be installed on the uneven and shaky surface.
- In front of the sensor there shouldn't be obstructive object affecting detection.
- Avoid installing it near the metal and glass which may affect the sensor.
- For your safety, please don't open the case if you find hitch after installation.

TROUBLESHOOTING

• The load don't work:

a. Check the power and the load.
b. Whether the indicator light is turned on after sensing? If yes, please check load.
c. If the indicator light does not turn on after sensing, please check if the working light corresponds to the ambient light.
d. Please check if the working voltage corresponds to the power source.

• The sensitivity is poor:

a. Please check the ambient temperature.
b. Please check if the signals source is in the detection fields.
c. Please check the installation height.

- The sensor can't shut automatically the load:

a. If there are continual signals in the detection fields.
b. If the time delay is set to the longest.
c. If the power corresponds to the instruction.
