or learn it's enviroment.· I bought 2 of these devices from Parallax, one works perfectly, and only needed about a minute to settle down to learn it's enviroment.· The other, however, just keeps going from high to low and back.

Has anyone else encountered the same problem.· The PIR sensor (#28027) that won't settle down has been powered up for 12 hours now.

Thanks·· Deno

    deno, we've had no previous reports of such a thing. If you can plug one in and it works and the other in the same circuit doesn't then you can contact Tech Support and we can have it tested. If it's defective we'll replace it. Take care.
