Overview
In addition to using dynamic sensors such as radars, the system can also monitor the outputs of static sensors such as light beams and PIR units. When a static sensor is triggered, an unmoving track is generated on top of the sensor within the Sentinel graphical representation. If the static sensor lies within an existing area and rule configuration for a radar, then the static track might be suitably handled by the system in the same way as tracks generated by the radar. If not, you can create a small dedicated area which encompasses the static sensor and then apply a simple area movement rule in order to produce the required alarm response.

Enable the Config Function. Select a entity - for instance, the Static Sensors folder.
In the Configuration Panel, select New, and then Static Sensor.
The Create New Static Sensor wizard will appear in a new window. Name the Static Sensor, then select Finish.
The new Sensor will now appear in the Configuration Tree, and will have been placed in the centre of the PPI. Ctrl+Click+Drag the circular Sensor icon to move the Sensor, or use the co-ordinates in the Static Sensor settings, on the Configuration Panel.
Use the Angle slider in the Static Sensor settings to change the Sensor's direction of view.
After the Static Sensor is correctly positioned on the PPI, configure the Camera Preset - either through the Static Sensor settings in the Configuration Panel, or by Ctrl+Click+Drag the star icon representing the Camera Preset on the PPI.
Once in place, select Save.
