I could really use some help with my Bosch motion detectors which I am trying to put in a brand new install. I am using Bosch ISC-PDL1-W18G TriTech Motion Detectors. This is going in an HAI OmniPro II install utilizing EOLRs. I am trying to fire up my first motion and have been completely unsuccessful. I am not using any of the advanced features of the detector right now (tamper, alarm memory, trouble, etc.). I simply have 4 wires hooked to it (+, -, Al, Al). I do have an EOLR in line. I have the following dip switch settings set:
1 - On (to perform walk test)
2 - On
3 - On
4 - Off
When power is first applied to the detector, it flashes blue during its warm up. Once the blue light stops flashing for warm up, my OmniPro shows a Status of "Not Ready" with a Loop value of ~251 in PC Access. The zone never switches to secure. If I walk, jump, etc. in front of the detector the led does not light up even though the walk test is on. If I watch the values in the Omni, the Status remains "Not Ready" the entire time and the Loop value remains ~251.
As a test to rule out a wire short issue I have rigged a second detector up right by my panel. I see the exact same behavior from this detector. As a test of the high Loop value I removed the EOLR from the test detector. This had no effect on the Status (still states "Not Ready", however had a strange effect on the Loop value. If there is no movement in front of the detector it now has a Loop value of ~127. If I move in front of the detector the led on the detector does not light up however the Loop value does change to ~251. This tells me it is detecting the motion. However, for some reason it is not activating the led for the walk test.
Any ideas of what could be causing these issues? I am out of ideas to test. Thank you for your help. Below I have linked the manuals. They are not a lot of help.
