Are the sensors pet immune?

I think the motion sensors could possibly pick up pet movement. I had trouble with my motion sensors without pets in the house, they were tripping for unknown reason.

Yes. The motion sensors can be paired with a door or window in a room. They won't sound the alarm unless both the door or window and the motion sensor is triggered. Pets & people can move through the motion sensor's view without triggering the alarm until the door or window is opened. Then both are triggered and alarm sounds.

The short answer is yes, if you code the sensors properly. The system sensors (window/door/motion) used together can be coded for what the company calls the power zone setting. This setting is used for the Pet Immune feature.

There is a red LED that is activated with the correction. You may not be able to see that when the collar is on you dog but if you remove the collar and run the area where the sensor is (a small circle near the petsafe logo) over a piece of cardboard or other rough surface you should see the LED light up. Then you will know that the collar is responding correctly. I also always make sure that the logo (and sensor) are closest to my dogs mouth it seems more consistant if put on that way.

I am not able to answer that question regarding a pet. We placed our sensor above a door. The sensor still pick of movement from the door. So, I would assume, that a large pet might also activate the sensor.

The one I purchased came with two sensors. And they work WONDERFULLY!!! I bought two more, and added them. These little detectors are great. They are sensitive, too (placement is key).

No the motion sensor are not made for outdoor use & inside they only have about a 10ft radius in my house so you have to be strategic in placing them. I think I read that the Pet sencors are made so they will not detect the motion of anything under 30lbs. Hope this helps, I am pleased with my system & it was easy to hook up.

There seem to be a lot of variables that affect how the tag and sensor work together. I don't know whether the sensor is too weak or if it merely requires that the sensor and the tag be well-aligned because the sensor beam is too narrow. I also don't know how tall your pet is. I recommend calling the manufacturer to see if someone there can help you.

Yes, this is a motion sensor alarm. It will probably pick up motion from your dog, unless you set it high enough that it doesn't cover the area all the way to the floor.I don't have any pets, so I can't say for sure, but I believe it will sense the body heat and motion of your dog.Hope this helps you.

I'm afraid your Motion Sensor is exactly what it is - senses Motion and even wind... so, it will go off every time a motion is beyond a minimum detectable sensitivity.Best is to buy one, then set it up and see... if it is satisfactory enough, get the second one. If not, use it somewhere else, like checking for racoons/cats/possums going alongside house. It will go off, and scare the animal too. maybe will not come by that way again... hope this helped.

I have my set at our side fence entrance, where our dogs like to welcome "Dad" home after work. Yes, the dogs running up to the fence have set off the sensors. These are big shepherds, too.

It all depends on the distance from the sensor to the object. Close up it would detect both. At a certain distance it would not detect cats but detect humans. I'm guessing that would be greater than 20' or 30' or so.

Hi Jean, The dimensions of the remote sensor for the humane contain are 2.5" by 1" by 1". Now, if you dog has already a sensor for the pet door, there is a sensor called RX-10 that is a rechargeable sensor, and that one works for the electronic pet door, the humane contain 7000, the 8000 and the fully rechargeable Humane Contain system called X-10, as well as with other High Tech Pet products. If you have any more questions please let me know, I will be happy to help. Sandra

Our German Shepherd trips the sensor every time she walks by the bathroom. I shouldn't have placed the fan so close to the bathroom door! :)

I no longer have any pets, my dog passed away. But my neighbor brings his dog over and it does not seem to bother him. I have the device in my carport aimed at the hood of my car that was formerly used by a cat (cats) and so far it is working. It only turns on when it detects motion in front of it so it should not affect nearby pets.

No...the LaserPET absorbs a green laser rather than reflects it (I think that's the reason it doesn't work) Tried pointing a Green laser at screen and there is NO reflection and NO reaction from the PET unit.

The motion sensor will not set the alarm off it the pets are under 30 lbs. That is in the setup instructions. I have 2 schnauzers that are 25 lbs each and they have not set off the alarm as of yet.

I looked at both. I looks like the Pet has anti-microbal element built in. I didn't see that with the regular Spotbot. Not sure if that is the only difference. I bought the Pet and am very happy with it.

Yes, any metal will set off sensors. Will the cat be riding in a pet carrier, otherwise? Probably best to not harness the cat when going through security. It would stress out your cat. Exercise him hours previous to trip in an area he's familiar.
