INSTALLATION ADVICE

Since the motion detector reacts to variations in temperature; avoid the following situations:

• Do not aim motion detectors at objects with highly-reflective surfaces, like swimming pools, mirrors, etc..
• Do not install motion detectors near heat sources such as heating outlets, air conditioning systems, dryer vents, lighting fixtures, etc.
• Do not aim the motion detector at objects that move in the wind, such as tree limbs or bushes, large plants, etc…

MOUNTING LOCATION
Determine the mounting location
– Wall or Ceiling mount.
Recommended installation height is 2.5m above ground.

INSTALLATION

Remove the wiring box cover by unscrewing the retaining screw (Diagram 1), and with a flat head screwdriver gently push down and ease out (Diagram 2).
Mark and drill fitting holes (Diagram 3). Insert the rawl plugs into the holes.
PIERCE & PASS THE CABLE(S) THROUGH THE GROMMET(S) BEFORE PROCEEDING.
Fix the mounting plate on the wall, ensuring not to over-tighten the screws to avoid potential damage.
When utilizing a power screwdriver, set to the lowest torque setting.

Note:
To make the installation process easier, clip the sensor body and wall plate together for hands-free install.

CONNECTION
The unit is suitable for connection to a 220-240V AC 50Hz electricity supply. It is suggested that 3-core round flexible cable of max.  2.5mm² gauge is used. An isolating switch should be installed to switch the power to the unit ON & OFF.  This allows the sensor to be easily switched off when not required or for maintenance purposes.
Detector/light units can be connected in parallel, with a maximum of 8 units.

NOTE: when connecting parallel sensors, the slave lighting load must not exceed the maximum rated load of one sensor.
The PIR sensor head can be rotated (Diagram 4).
Point the PIR sensor head straight to optimize the detection range.
After a long period of usage, the PIR sensor head ball join may be loosen, tighten the screw to fix the PIR sensor head position (Diagram 5). Use tightening force of approximate 5Nm.

OPERATION AND TESTING

Time
The timer can be set to 2 seconds – 15 minutes.
Position 2 seconds is suitable as a test setting. Turn the control knob clockwise to increase the delay time. Set the control to the desired setting between these limits.
D-MODE
In position D, the light switches on automatically at dusk. It switches off when the lux setting value is reached at dawn.
PULSE MODE – enables integration with external timer switches.

Sen
The default sensitivy is set to H (High – up to 12m).
M (Medium – up to 9m), L (Low – up to 6m).
To decrease the detection zone, turn the control knob anti-clockwise.
Lux
The light controller determines at what level of darkness the light switches on automatically. Turn the potentiometer clockwise to increase the LUX value.
The lowest value is 5 LUX, the highest value is 1000 LUX (daylight). The Dusk adjustment knob is indicated by the “Moon” and “Sun” symbols.
DUSK LEARN
If you turn the knob to the EYE setting, it will use whatever the current light level is as the active switching point from now onward.
This may provide a more accurate and customized setting for the user.

LED Indication (Diagram 6)

1. During Warm-up Period
   – All 3 LED indicators will turn on and remain illuminated for 45s until the warm-up is complete, the unit will then switch to Auto Mode.

2. During Auto Mode
   – During standby, regardless of lux setting, the LED will flash like a scanning LED.
   – When the sensor is activated, regardless of lux setting, the LED will continue to flash like a scanning LED.

3. During Manual Override Mode
   – Upon manual override mode activation, the LEDs will blink twice to indicate that the unit has entered manual override mode; The LEDs will turn off during manual override mode.
   The scrolling LED function returns when the unit reenters Auto mode.

4. During D mode
   – The center LED will blink at a frequency of 0.5s on and 0.5s off.

5. Lux learn
   – The LED indicators will turn off when the unit completes the lux learning process and returns to Auto mode.

OPERATION AND TESTING
Walk Test Procedure
To start walk test, set the Time indicator to “2s” and Lux indicator to “Sun”.
The unit will now operate during daytime as well as at night, illuminating the lamp for approx. 2 seconds each time. This allows testing to be carried out to establish the best position for the sensor. The lamp will immediately illuminate as  the unit goes through its “warm-up” period. After approximately 45 seconds the lamp will extinguish. Try to remain outside the detection area during the warm-up period.
Walk across the detection area approx 5 metres from the unit. As you cross a detection “zone” the lamp will illuminate. Now stand still until the lamp extinguishes (this should take approx. 2 seconds).
Start moving again. As you cross each “zone” the lamp will illuminate.
Repeat the above, walking at various distances and angles to the unit. This will help you establish the detection coverage.
Tilting the sensor head up will increase the detection distance and tilting the sensor head down will reduce that distance (approx. 3mtr per 10deg of tilt).
The SEN setting can also be adjusted to modify the overall detection distance.
Masking the lens (see over page) will block all detection from that angle (over boundaries, roads, heat sources)
When walk tests are completed, adjust TIME and LUX settings to suit the user.
|Manual Override Mode
Initiate Manual Override Mode by swiftly toggling the connected light switch OFF and ON within 2 seconds. This can be done at any time, keeping the lights on for up to 6 hours. To exit manual override, repeat the switch action within 2  seconds or after 6 hours of continuous illumination, returning the unit to auto mode.
Holiday mode
Initiate Holiday Mode by configuring the desired lux level for light activation. Then, swiftly toggle the connected light switch OFF and ON TWICE within 2 seconds to activate the mode. Once activated, the lights will illuminate when  ambient light matches the set lux level, remaining on for a random duration of 1 to 3 hours daily. To exit Holiday Mode, simply toggle the connected light switch OFF and then ON within 2 seconds, returning the unit to its default auto mode.

DETECTION RANGE

Optimum installation height 2.5m
Range (2m – 3.5m)

MASKING THE SENSOR LENS

To restrict the sensor coverage, preventing detection in unwanted areas, mask the sensor lens using the mask provided.
For your information, 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.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Lamp stays ON all the time at night.
The unit may be suffering from false activation.
Cover the sensor lens completely with a thick cloth.
This will prevent the sensor from “seeing” anything.
If the unit now switches off after the set time duration and does not re- activate, this indicates that the problem was caused by false activation.
The problem may be solved by slightly adjusting the direction/angle of the sensor head.
Sensor may be set to D-mode, readjust the time dial accordingly.
Sensor keeps activating for no reason / at random.

You may not be allowing the unit time to complete it’s warm-up period. Stand well out of the detection range and wait (the warm-up period should never exceed 2 minutes).
Occasionally, winds may activate the sensor.
Sometimes passages between buildings etc.
can cause a “wind tunnel” effect.
Ensure the unit is not positioned so as to allow detection of cars/people using public thoroughfares adjacent to your property.
Sensor will not operate at all.
Check that the power is switched ON at the wall switch.
Turn OFF the power to the unit and check the wiring connections as per the diagram.
Ensure no connections are loose.
Check the lamp. If the lamp has failed, replace.
Ensure that the lamp is seated correctly in the lampholder.
Sensor will not operate at night.
The level of ambient light in the area may be too bright to allow operation at the current Lux setting.
During the hours of darkness, adjust the Lux control slowly clockwise until the lamp illuminates.
Unit activates during the daytime
The level of ambient light in the area may be too dark for the current Lux setting. During daylight, adjust the Lux control slightly anti-clockwise. When the lamp load extinguishes, enter the detection area. If the sensor still activates, the  setting is still too high. Repeat the above procedure until the Sensor does not activate when you enter the detection area.
Sensor coverage is poor/ sporadic
Unit may be poorly located. Re-locate the unit.
Detection range varies from day to day
Sensors are influenced by climatic conditions.
The colder the ambient temperature, the more effective the sensor will be. You may need to make seasonal adjustments to the sensor head position to ensure trouble-free operation all year round.
