Installation and Wiring

Installation advice

• The recommended mounting height is 1.8-2.5 meters to achieve the optimal detection range.
• Avoid objects that may be swayed by the wind, typically but not limited to curtains, tall plants etc. in the sensor detection range
• Avoid aiming the sensor toward high reflective surfaces like mirrors, monitors etc.
• Do not mount the sensor close to objects which can create rapid temperature changes, e.g. air conditioning vents, heaters, lights etc.

Installation direction

This product must be installed by a licensed electrician.

1. Switch off the mains power
2. Wire the sensor and the loads as per the wiring diagram
3. Mount the sensor onto the desired position
4. Switch on the mains power
5. Test the sensor working
6. Adjust the brightness threshold, sensitivity, and hold-time to suitable level

Wiring
The sensor is a 3-wire sensor that requires neutral wire, offering stable performance. Please wire as per the wiring diagram.

Operation and Function

LED indicator

• LED indicator is built in under the Fresnel lens, it lights up differently in response to different working status.
• There are three color LED indicators: white, blue, and green.
• LED indicator color is white when product is new or has been reset.
• LED indicator color can be blue or green after product is added to a network, depending on working status.
• The LED indicator can be turned off after the sensor being added to the App.

Key parameters: Hold-time, brightness threshold and Sensitivity
The sensor has three key parameters that need to be set according to the application requirements: Hold-time, brightness threshold and sensitivity. They can be adjusted on the dials under the sensor head: the dial with a clock icon is for hold-time, the dial with a sun icon is for brightness threshold, and the dial with a human icon is for sensitivity. They can also be adjusted in the App, after the sensor being added into the App.

Hold-time
The brightness threshold adjustment makes the sensor activate the load depending on the ambient brightness when there is movement detected in the detection range. The adjustment can be set to allow the sensor to activate the load all day (under full daylight) when movement is detected, or only to activate the load when the ambient brightness is below a certain level upon detection of movement. For example, the user can ensure the load is only activated when movement is detected at night time, while in the day time there is adequate natural daylight, the sensor does not respond to movements in the detection range to activate the load, as it is unlikely to be necessary for typical energy saving considerations.
Rotate the dial clockwise toward “sun” to increase the brightness threshold, when the adjustment is fully clockwise and the arrow is pointing at the “sun”, the motion sensor will activate the load upon detection of movement all day regardless of ambient brightness. Rotate the dial anti-clockwise toward the “moon“ to decrease the brightness threshold, when the adjustment is fully anti-clockwise and the arrow is pointing at the “moon”, the motion sensor only activates the load upon detection of movement in the dark.

Brightness threshold
The brightness threshold adjustment makes the sensor to activate the load depending on the ambient brightness when there is movement detected in the detection range. The adjustment can be set to allow the sensor to activate the load all day (under full daylight) when movement is detected, or only to activate the load when the ambient brightness is below a certain level upon detection of movement. For example, the user can ensure the load is only activated when movement is detected at night time, while in the day time there is adequate natural daylight, the sensor does not respond to movements in the detection range to activate the load, as it is probably not necessary to do so for energy saving consideration.
Rotate the dial clockwise toward “+” to increase the brightness threshold, when the adjustment is fully clockwise and the arrow is pointing at the “+”, the motion sensor will activate the load upon detection of movement all day regardless of ambient brightness. Rotate the dial anti-clockwise toward the “-“ to decrease the brightness threshold, when the adjustment is fully anti- clockwise and the arrow is pointing at the “-”, the motion sensor only activates the load upon detection of movement in the dark.

Sensitivity
The sensitivity adjustment changes the sensor detection range. The higher the sensitivity is, the movement from longer distance away can be detected.
Rotate the dial clockwise toward “+” to increase the sensitivity. Rotate the dial anti-clockwise toward the “-“ to decrease the sensitivity.

Working modes
Four working modes are built in the sensor:
Motion sensor mode (or namely Auto mode): When the ambient brightness corresponds to brightness threshold setting, the sensor is monitoring infrared source movements in the detection field. The load is turned on when movement is detected, and the load is turned off when there is no more movement detected within hold-time

• Override-On mode (or namely Always-On mode): The load is always kept ON regardless infrared movements in the detection range
• Override-Off mode (or namely Always-Off mode) : The load is always kept OFF regardless infrared movements in the detection range
• Photocell mode (or namely PE sensor function): The load is always kept ON when the ambient brightness is lower than brightness threshold setting, and always kept OFF when the ambient brightness is higher than brightness threshold setting, regardless of infrared movements in the detection range
  Before being added to the App, the sensor works in Motion sensor mode by default.
  After being added into the App, the sensor can work in all 4 modes, see below for how to switch modes

| Via a paired PIXIE secondary device, single press the button| Switch off the power to the sensor, wait for 10 seconds, then resupply power to the sensor

Warm-up
When power is supplied to the sensor, the LED indicator of the sensor will flash slowly for 20-30 seconds. During this period, the load is kept at ON status regardless of motion or ambient brightness. This is warm-up process of the sensor, to get ready for the functionalities. When the LED indicator stops flashing, and the load is turned OFF, the warm-up process is finished. After warm-up, the sensor will always enter Motion sensor mode as default setting.
