UNLCDHS Programming – Detector Parameters (Ch. 1 & 2)
Basic Parameters for all models including ‘-PRM’ and ‘-PRM-2CH’, ‘-DD/SR’ and ‘-AD’
Parameter Default Range / Option Description
Detection Mode Pres
(Presence)
Pres (Presence) /
Abs (Absence)
Select Pres to turn lights on when movement is detected and o when movement
ceases. Select Abs to turn lights o when movement ceases, but the lights must be
manually turned on by a switch or handset rst.
Timeout 20 0 – 99 minutes How long the lights stay on for aer movement has stopped.
This sets both Timeout (channel 1) and Timeout (channel 2) to the same value.
Select 0 for a 10 second delay (use for commissioning only).
Abs Recovery
(secs) (V3)
10 0 – 99 seconds Sets a period for a detector in Absence mode to operate in Presence mode aer lights
are turned o. This enables a person to use movement to re trigger lights which have
switched o while they are still in the room. If Abs Recovery (secs) is set to a non-zero
value you should also set Inhibit to 0 to detect any occupancy immediately.
Sensitivity On 9 1 – 9 Sensitivity level for detecting further movement when the lights are already on.
1 = minimum, 9 = maximum (least movement required to trigger the lights).
(UHS5 sets Sensitivity On and Sensitivity O to the same value.)
Sensitivity O 9 1 – 9 Sensitivity level for detecting any movement when the lights are o. 1 = minimum,
9 = maximum (least movement required to trigger the lights).
(UHS5 sets Sensitivity On and Sensitivity O to the same value.)
Manual Timeout
(Not for ‘-2CH’
models)
10 How long the lights stay o aer they have been turned o using a switch or handset
before returning to the automatic Timeout operation.
The following examples are for a detector in presence mode with Timeout set to 15
minutes and Manual Timeout to 3 minutes:
Example 1:
When the user leaves the room they switch the light o. The lights stay o for
3 minutes even someone walks back into the room. The sensor will revert to
automatic aer 3 minutes, and then walking back in the room will turn the lights on -
the lights will then stay on until no movement has been detected for 15 minutes.
Example 2:
The user turns the lights o but stays in the room (for example to give a presentation).
Every time a movement is detected, the 3 minute timeout period is re triggered, but if
no movement is detected for this period operation reverts to automatic. This means
the lights may turn on inadvertently during the presentation if the occupants are still
for 3 minutes, so you should adjust the manual timeout carefully.
Walk Test LED O On / O When set to On a red LED on the sensor ashes when movement is detected.
Use this feature to check for adequate sensitivity levels.
Disable Detect No Yes / No Disables presence / absence detection, so that the detector can’t control switching
but can control dimming output. Use this mode when the unit is for maintained
illuminance only.
Relay State when
Det Disabled (V3)
O On / O If Disable Detect is set Yes, setting Relay State when Det Disabled to On keeps the
channel 1 relay output closed. Setting it to O keeps the relay open.
Power Up State Yes Yes / No Select No for a 40 second delay aer initial power up before the detector starts
detecting and changing outputs.
Select Yes for no delay - the detector will always power up detecting.
Inhibit (secs) 1 1 - 99 seconds The time to wait aer the detector turns lights o before it can retrigger them.
If using the device in Absence mode, set this time to 0.
Note: Certain parameter functions are only available in specic versions of the detectors and these are indicated under the aected parameter headings
within the brackets e.g. LUX Learn Level (V3).
