    Hi all, hoping you can help me with this query. I have a HKC house alarm with 1 wired PIR and 2 wireless PIRs. When the alarm is not set the wired PIR will blink/flash a blue light every now and again (when senses movement?). Should the wireless PIRs do the same? I wasn’t sure if the wireless PIRs were working and replaced the battery in both. When I opened the units the alarm beeped, I entered the code on the alarm panel and the beeping stopped and then I replaced the battery and closed the unit. Is there any way to check that the PIR is working correctly other than setting the alarm and moving in front of the sensor? Hope you can help, thanks

    The wire free PIR does not have a blinking led like a wired version to save on battery life.
    To walk test use the user walk test, 0#3 code on keypad.
