1 Introduction
- The Matrix-Fire_Sensor module is a flame detector module. It uses the YS-17 flame detector to detect flames or fires. It can detect flames or fires whose wavelengths are between 760nm and 1100nm. Its detecting angle is up to 60 degrees. Its sensitivity can be adjusted via the potentiometer.

| G | Ground |
3 Basic Device Operation
- The YS-17 is an infrared flame detector monitoring the infrared spectral band for specific patterns given off by hot gases. Radiation of flames and fires is sensed using a specialized infrared receiver and then converted to an electronic signal. This signal is compared with a threshold signal and when it reaches the threshold value the module will output a low level.
