### Frequently Asked Questions

**A guide to motion detectors**  
Motion detection technology is what fuels many of today’s home security devices. From motion sensor cameras to motion sensor lights, motion detectors work hard to increase your personal safety and peace of mind. When used as an independent device, a motion sensor alarm will let you know if there is someone inside of your house who shouldn’t be there. If something interrupts the detector’s sensor, it will send a signal to alert you to potential danger inside of your home, ultimately sounding the alarm.

You can use motion detectors as a part of your home alarm, at your office, or even at your vacation home to keep an eye on things while you are away. They require little maintenance and reap the huge reward of increased safety for you and your belongings. Simply put, they make your life easier.

**How do motion detectors work?**  
_Motion detectors use sensors to monitor movement within their field of view. Whenever a motion detector picks up on movement, it alerts your security system’s control panel to notify you of potential danger._

Motion detectors use specialized technology to detect potentially hazardous movements. Cove's motion detectors use an infrared sensor in order to detect the body heat of the intruder.

**What triggers a motion detector, and how do I prevent false alarms?**  
_Anything that moves can set off a motion sensor._  
Simply put, anything that moves has the potential to trigger a motion sensor. This means that the possibilities for setting off your motion sensor are virtually limitless.

**How to choose a motion detector**  
_When choosing a motion detector, consider things like price, customizability, installation requirements, battery life, and warranty._  
When choosing a motion detector, it is helpful to ask yourself why you want to install this type of device inside of your home.

**Where should I install a motion detector?**  
_Install motion detectors in the corner of a room at a height of about 6 to 8 feet above the floor._  
Proper placement makes a world of difference. A top-notch sensor placed in an inopportune location will miss out on important movements.
