Safety

  • Before installation or maintenance, ensure the mains supply to the luminaire is switched off and the circuit supply fuses are removed or the circuit breaker is turned off.
  • It is recommended that a qualified electrician is consulted or used for the installation of this luminaire and installed by the current IEE wiring and Building Regulations.
  • Check that the total load on the circuit including when this luminaire is fitted does not exceed the rating of the circuit cable, fuse, or circuit breaker.

Installation Advice

  • The motion detector has many detection zones, at various vertical and horizontal angles as shown (see Image A).
  • A moving human body needs to cross/enter one of these zones to activate the sensor. The best all-round coverage is achieved with the unit mounted at the optimum height of 1.8m.
  • Careful positioning of the sensor will be required for optimum performance  (See Image A).
  • The sensor is more sensitive to movement ACROSS its field of vision than to movement directly TOWARD (See Image B). Therefore position the unit so that the sensor looks ACROSS the likely approach path.
  • Avoid positioning the sensor where there are any sources of heat in the detection area (extractor fans, tumble dryers, etc.).
  • Reflective surfaces (i.e. pools of water or white-painted walls) and overhanging branches may cause false activation under extreme conditions.
  • During extreme weather conditions the motion sensor may exhibit unusual behavior, this does not indicate a fault with the sensor. Once normal weather conditions return, the sensor will resume normal operation.

Installation

  • Ensure the mains supply is switched off and the circuit supply fuses are removed or the circuit breaker is turned OFF.
  • An isolating switch should be installed to switch the power ON  and OFF to the luminaire. This allows the unit to be easily switched OFF for maintenance purposes.
  • Carefully remove the diffuser using a Philips terminal screwdriver to release the clips located on both sides of the bulkhead light (See diagram E).
  • Remove the connection cover by undoing the fixing screw that holds it in place (See diagram F).TIMEGUARD-SLB88-60WPIR-Bulkhead-Light-fig-2
  • Ensure the bulkhead is in an upright position with the sensor at the bottom of the bulkhead.
  • Mark the position of the mounting holes on the wall using the wall plate as a template and drill the holes ensuring not to infringe with any gas/water pipes or electrical cables that may be hidden below the surface. Insert the raw plugs into the holes.
  • Pierce the pre-installed grommet and pass through the 230V AC 50Hz mains supply cable ensuring that the IP rating of the fitting is maintained  (silicon sealant may be used).
  • Secure the back plate to the wall using the correct mounting screws for the rawl plugs installed. Do not overtighten the screws as this could damage the wall plate.
  • Connect the 230V AC 50Hz mains supply cable to the terminal block ensuring that all bare conductors are sleeved and that correct polarity is observed (See section 6. Connection Diagram).
  • Re-attach the connection cover and secure using the fixing screw previously removed in step 5.4.
  • Install the light bulb (not supplied).
  • Fit the diffuser back onto the main body of the unit, ensuring it clicks firmly into place.

Connection diagram

  • Connect the 230V 50Hz mains supply cable to the terminal block as follows;

  • The diagram below also shows the required connections for the addition of slave luminaires. When adding slaves, be sure not to exceed the Total Switchable Loads (see section 3. Technical Specifications).

Operation & Testing

Walk Test Procedure

  • The adjustment knobs located beneath the sensor head (see diagram “C”) are factory set to “Walk Test Mode” i.e. LUX set to the ‘Sun’ symbol and the TIME set to the minimum.
  • The sensor will rotate from left to right. Adjust the sensor head to the desired direction for best coverage.
  • Turn the power to the unit ON. The lamp will illuminate for approximately  1 to 2 minutes. This indicates the unit is wired correctly and the unit is in  Test Mode. Try to remain outside the detection area during the warm-up period.

Test Mode

  • The lamp will now illuminate for approximately 5 seconds every time movement is detected.
  • Walk across the detection area approximately 5 meters from the unit.
  • Each time you are detected the lamp will illuminate. Now stand still until the lamp extinguishes (this should take approx. 2 seconds).
  • Start moving again, when you are detected again the lamp will illuminate.
  • Repeat the above, walking at various angles and distances to the unit. This will help you to establish the detection pattern.

Setting up for Automatic Operation

  • When the walk tests are complete, the unit can be set up for automatic operation.

  • The TIME setting controls how long the unit remains illuminated following activation, and after all motion ceases (See diagram “C”).

  • The minimum time (fully anti-clockwise) is approx. 5 seconds, whilst the maximum time (fully clockwise) is approx. 5 minutes. Set the control to the desired setting between these limits.

  • The LUX control determines the level of darkness required for the unit to start operating. The setting is best achieved by the procedure below (See diagram “C”. The LUX adjustment knob is indicated by the ‘Moon’ and ‘Sun’ symbols);

    • Set the LUX control knob fully clockwise.
    • When the ambient light level reaches the level of darkness at which you wish the lamp to become operative (i.e. at dusk) SLOWLY rotate the control in an anti-clockwise direction until a point is reached where the lamp illuminates.
    • Leave the control set at this point.
  • At this position, the unit should become operative at approximately the same level of darkness each evening.

  • Observe the operation of the unit. If the unit is starting to operate too early (i.e. when it is quite light) adjust the control slightly anti-clockwise.
    If the unit starts to operate too late (i.e. when it is very dark). Adjust the control slightly clockwise.

    • Continue to adjust until the unit operates as desired.

Masking the Sensor Lens

  • To reduce the sensor coverage, prevent detection in unwanted areas, mask the sensor lens using electrician tape or something similar (see diagram D).
  • The top section of the lens covers long-range detection, the bottom covers short-range. Similarly, the left and right lens sections cover the left and right detection areas respectively.

FAQ

  • Q: What should I do if the sensor does not detect motion?
    • A: If the sensor does not detect motion, ensure no obstructions are blocking its view and that it is within the specified detection range. Additionally, check if the sensor lens is clean and free from any dirt or debris.
  • Q: Can I use a higher-wattage bulb than recommended?
    • A: It is not recommended to use a higher wattage bulb than what is specified in the technical specifications as it may cause damage to the product and pose a safety risk.
