CP Electronics GIMB Batten Mount PIR Detector
Overview
The GIMB miniature PIR (passive infrared) presence detector provides automatic control of lighting loads. It is specifically designed for mounting onto a batten style luminaire. The detector can switch incandescent, fluorescent, compact fluorescent, and LED lighting. It detects movement using a PIR sensor and turns the load on. When an area is no longer occupied, the load will switch off after a 10-minute timeout period. A selection of fixing washers are supplied to aid fixing to a variety of luminaires.
Installation
Do not grip the unit at the lens end. Hold the square body near the threaded end when installing and tightening the nut. Care must be taken to prevent damage to the lens and surrounding IP seal. Ensure that the silicone washer and/or the IP spacer are used to ensure IP rating.

Components
Part/Quantity Supplied
- IP Spacer with silicone coating 1

- 5º washer 1
- 5º spacer 1
- M20 nut 1

Important
Ensure that the Silicone washer and/or the IP spacer are used to ensure IP
rating.
Note. Use the 5º spacers where the luminaire housing has a draft angle .
The product is designed to be mounted directly to the outside of a luminaire. The detector should be sited so that the occupants of the room fall inside the detection pattern (shown opposite), at a recommended ceiling height of 2.8m. Note that the lower the sensor is installed the smaller the detection range will be, subject to the parameters shown on the detection diagram.
- Do not site within 1m of forced air heating or ventilation..
- Do not fix to a vibrating surface.
Wiring diagram
Power-up test procedure
- When power is applied to the unit, the load will turn on immediately.
- For the first 5 minutes of operation the time out period is 10 seconds to aid commissioning.
- Vacate the room or remain very still for more than 10 seconds and wait for the load to switch off.
- Check that the load switches on when movement is detected.
- When the 5 minutes have elapsed the time out will be 10 minutes.
Fault finding
What if the load does not turn ON?
- Check that the live supply to the circuit is good.
- Check that the load is functioning by bypassing the sensor (e.g. link L and L/ Out).
What if the load does not turn OFF?
- Ensure that the area is left unoccupied for longer than the 10 minute time out period.
