It would be a NO from me ….
I wouldn’t fit any pet tolerant detectors unless it’s a small dog or cat …then the device location has to be correct …eg no animal can get within 1m of the device ( no furniture below it ) can’t face stairs ect ….then I would only use the Bosch detector
The answer is you can check ish as to what you have in ricochet monitor to some degree although it’s pretty standard to see p15/q20 for wireless device so you can’t differentiate between the two.
That’s because the firmware is the same and this is common between those levels of sensors so Orisec would show IR200/Q200 equivalent in wireless modules.
We don’t recommend pet sensors .
1. False alarms if the pet gets above the cut off height or close to sensor.
2. short people may not activate the alarm.
Best option is perimeter protection.
A smarter option maybe the curtain versions of capture running along the external wall. However if the pet enters the window area it may activate.
or an optex perimeter sensor hardwired, you can convert opted hard wired sensors to report wirelessly with an adapter Module. Not used one but might be worth a look.

Thanks for the helpful answers I will set up a part arm and omit the living room and keep the dog in there for the time being
