FUNCTION & CONTROL
Fig. 1
1.TIME() : Adjusts the infrared motion sensor’s
shut-off time. Light will remain on for
the setting time interval after last
motion is detected.
2.LUX(¤/) : The light sensitivity adjustment
allows you to easily set the light so
that it won’t go on during daylight.
3. SENS.: The detecting distance adjustment
allows you to easily set the
detecting distance.
Passive infrared is more sensitive
in winter than in summer, be sure
to reduce the sensitivity knob
counter-clockwise to avoid false
triggering.

8. Fix power cable (use plate. Ref K).
NOTE: 1. If more range is required, try
pointing the motion sensor slightly
upward, so that the 3rd Level of
vision can monitor an area above
your head.
2. Try to keep the quartz light as far
away as possible from the motion
sensor, as heat from the light may
confuse the motion sensor.

Lights Permanently Off:
Turn the control switch OFF.
Light Permanently ON (Manual Override):
By flipping the connected power switch Off-On twice quickly, it will change from Auto Mode to
PERMANENTLY ON Mode. The detector will return to “Auto Mode” i.e. light will go off automati-
cally after two hours or by flipping power switch Off-On once instead.
IMPORTANT: If you find the light permanently On accidentally (notby the above method),
please switch power Off for 3 second or so and then switch power On again, it shall return
to Auto Mode and work normally.
Trouble Shooting:
1. Unit doesn’t function at all / Lights don’t come on
- Check wiring to unit to make sure that you have correct AC power at the unit.
- Check the wiring from the unit to the source of power to make sure you have wired the unit
correctly.
- Check the ambient light control if it was set at your desired level
2. Detector clicks but does not operate
- Check lamps are not broken.
- Check lamps tight in lampholders.
3. Lights go on and off quickly
- Ensure light and heat are not being reflected back onto the detector. Check for white or
reflective surfaces in protection pattern.
- Note the detector is more sensitive in cold weather
4. Lights stay on
- Check unit has not gone into Manual Override mode.
- Light bulb sockets may be wired directly to the power source
- Recheck the wiring diagram
- Adjust time to minimum
- Ensure unit is firmly fixed to a solid object with no moving branches etc. in field of view.
- Ensure detector is not being activated by stray moving heat sources such as heating outlets,
car etc.
5. Lights switch on during storms
- Adverse weather conditions and temperature changes can result in unwanted activations.
- This can be minimized by mounting in a protected location
6. Maintenance and repair
- Do not attempt to repair as this could invalidate warranty or result in personal injury.
- Clean detector lens and outside casing with damp cloth
