Adt Eye 20 Hot -
If you are repairing your system, here are the specs for the ADT Eye 20 (usually a rebranded Honeywell 998 or similar PIR).
| Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | Coverage | 20 ft x 20 ft (90° wide angle) | | Power Supply | 9 – 14.5 VDC | | Current Draw | 15 mA (standby) / 30 mA (alarm) | | Alarm Relay | Solid State (Form A) | | Warm Up Time | 60 seconds | | Operating Temp | 32°F to 120°F (0°C to 49°C) | | Physical Heat | Normal operation: 10-15°C above room temp |
Note on "Hot": If your room temperature is 85°F (29°C), the sensor running at 100°F (38°C) is within specification.
Heat hazes can distort standard camera lenses, but the Eye 20 utilizes an advanced Optical Diffusion Filter to cut through the distortion.
The UV rays over decades turn the white plastic yellow. This physically blocks some infrared light, reducing the sensor’s range from 20 feet to maybe 10 feet.
If you are determined to keep your existing "ADT Eye 20 Hot" unit, follow this checklist.
Safety First: Disconnect the battery from your alarm panel and unplug the AC transformer before touching the sensor wires. adt eye 20 hot
Step 1: Check the Voltage Use a multimeter at the sensor location.
