Abstract

A method of calibrating a sensor (200) for a security system, the method comprising: switching the sensor (200) to a zone calibration mode for configuring the sensor (200) to operate with a detection zone; detecting a moveable object (202) moving along a border of the detection zone, wherein the sensor (200) detects the position of the moveable object (202) as the moveable object (202) moves along the border of the detection zone; calculating zone calibration data for the detection zone based on the detected positions of the moveable object (202); and configuring the sensor (200) to operate using the calculated zone calibration data.
