Not suitable for accent lighting

To avoid damage to the unit do not aim sensor
towards sun.
Avoid positioning the sensor unit adjacent to a
bright light source which may prevent the unit from
operating when the lux control is set to operate in
dark conditions.
Avoid nuisance / false triggering by directing sensor
away from:
• Trees and shrubs
• Reective surfaces such as smooth white walls
• Swimming pools
• Heat sources such as boiler ues
The PIR sensor scanning specications
(approximately 8 metres at 120°) may vary slightly
depending on the mounting height and location.
The detection range of the unit may also alter with
temperature change. Before selecting a place to
install your PIR oodlight you should note that
movement across the scan area is more eective
than movement directly towards or away from the
sensor. (Refer to g.2 opposite).
If movement is made walking directly towards or
away from the sensor and not across the sensor
the apparent detection range will be substantially
reduced (refer to g. 3 opposite).
LAMP REPLACEMENT:
The light source of this luminaire is not replaceable;
when the light source reaches its end of life the
whole luminaire shall be replaced.
INTRODUCTION:
The oodlight incorporates a PIR (Passive Infra Red)
sensing device which continuously scans a preset
operating zone and immediately switches the light
on when it detects movement in that area.
This means that whenever movement is detected
within the range of the sensor the light will switch
on automatically to illuminate the area you have
selected to light. While there is movement within
range of the unit the light will remain on.
READ THIS FIRST:
Check the pack and make sure you have all of the
parts listed on the front of this booklet. If not,
contact the outlet where you bought this product.
This product must be installed by a competent
person in accordance with the current building and
IEE wiring regulations.
As the buyer, installer and/or user of this product it
is your own responsibility to ensure that this tting
is t for the purpose for which you have intended
it. Eterna Lighting cannot accept any liability for
loss, damage or premature failure resulting from
inappropriate use.
This product is designed and constructed according
to the principles of the appropriate British Standard.
Switch o the mains before commencing installation
and remove the appropriate circuit fuse or lock o
MCB.
This unit is suitable for outdoor use.
This product is designed for permanent connection
to xed wiring: this must be a suitable circuit
(protected with the appropriate MCB or fuse).
Before making xing hole(s), check that there are no
obstructions hidden beneath the mounting surface
such as pipes or cables.
Make sure that the xings are strong enough to
support the considerable weight of the tting and
hold it rigidly.
The lamp must be positioned so that there is at
least 1M between the luminaire and any illuminated
surface.
When making connections ensure that the terminals
are tightened securely and that no
strands of wire protrude. Check that the terminals are
tightened onto the bared conductors and not onto
any insulation.
This product must be connected to Earth
termination.
This product is not intended to be used by children
and persons with sensory, physical and/or mental
impairments that would prevent them from using it
safely.
You are advised at every stage of your installation to
double-check any electrical connections you have
made. After you have completed your installation
there are electrical tests that should be carried out,
these tests are specied in the current IEE wiring and
building regulations.
CLEANING:
• To avoid dust build-up and ensure proper
functioning of the oodlight, please wipe the
sensor lens lightly with a damp cloth every 3
months.
• Disconnect the power and clean the exterior only of
this tting with a moist (not wet) cloth.
• Do not use any chemical or abrasive cleaners.
SPECIFICATIONS:
• Detection range: max. 8m at approx. 120° scan
• Duration time adjustment: (10±3) seconds to (10±3)
minutes
• Weatherproof: IP44
• Lux adjustment: 10-2000 Lux
WHERE TO FIT YOUR PIR FLOODLIGHT:
To achieve best results we suggest you take the
following points into consideration:
Do not mount on a surface that has vibration.
Ideally the PIR ood light should be mounted 1.8 to
2.5 metres (6 to 8ft) above the area to be scanned
(refer to g.1 below).

INSTALLATION:
01) Switch o the mains before commencing
installation.
02) Using the bracket as a template mark and then
drill the appropriate xing holes.
03) Secure the bracket with suitable xings.
04) Slot the oodlight on to the bracket and secure
the xing bolts.
05) Terminate loose ends of wire to an appropriate IP
rated junction box or similar, ensuring the below
is observed.
Live - Brown / Red
Neutral - Blue / Black
Earth - Yellow / Green
06) Adjust the direction of the oodlight.
07) Restore mains power.
08) Adjust the PIR sensor oodlight to the desired
settings.
UNDERSTANDING THE CONTROLS:
(Please refer to Fig. 5 below)
ADJUSTING THE DURATION TIME:
The length of time the unit remains switched on
after activation can be adjusted from (10±3) seconds
to (10±3) minutes approximately. Rotating the TIME
screw from (+) to (-) will reduce the duration time.
Note: Once the light has been triggered by the PIR
sensor any subsequent detection will start the timed
period again from the beginning.
ADJUSTING THE LUX CONTROL LEVEL:
The Lux control module has a built-in sensing device
(photocell) that detects daylight and darkness. The
(R) position denotes that the oodlights can work
at day and night, and the () position only work at
night. You can set to operate the unit at the desired
level by adjusting the LUX screw.
SETTING THE CONTROLS  WALK TEST:
Turn the Lux control screw to light (R) & ensure
that the TIME control screw is set at the minimum
duration time (-) position. The oodlight will now
switch on and remain on for about 10 seconds after
each detection.
01) Adjust time control to required setting.
02) To set the light level at which the oodlight will
automatically switch “on” at night, turn the LUX
control screw from daylight (R) to night (). If
the oodlight is required to switch on earlier, e.g.
dusk, wait for the desired light level, then slowly
turn the LUX control screw towards daylight while
someone walks across the center of the area to
be detected. When the oodlight switches on
stop adjusting. You may need to make further
adjustments to achieve your ideal light level
setting.
ADJUSTING THE SENSITIVITY:
The sensitivity means the maximum distance which
PIR sensor can be triggered by movement - turning
the SENS knob from (+) to (-) will decrease the
sensitivity.
TROUBLESHOOTING AND USER HINTS:
Note: all passive infra red detectors are more sensitive in cold and dry weather than warm and wet weather.
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SUGGESTED REMEDY
Light does not switch
on when there is
movement in the
detection area.
1. No mains voltage Check all connections, and MCB Fuses /
switches
2. Nearby lighting is too bright Relocate the unit
3. Controls set incorrectly Adjust Lux setting
4. Wired incorrectly Check wiring and conrm its wired as per the
wiring instructions opposite
5. Sensor positioned in wrong direction Relocate the unit
Light switches on for
no apparent reason
(false trigger)
1. Heat sources such as air-con, vents, heaters,
ues, other outside lighting, moving cars trees
or shrubs are activating sensor
Relocate the unit
2. Interference from on/o switching of electric
fans or lights on the same circuit as your
security oodlight.
(This problem does not always occur but a faulty
switch or noisy uorescent light may cause the
security oodlight to switch on)
Should the false triggering become,
troublesome, consider:
(a) Replacing a faulty switch
(b) Replacing noisy uorescent tubes and/
or starters
(c) Connecting the oodlight to a separate
circuit (in most cases where one or more of
the above suggestions have been carried
out, false triggering has been reduced)
3. Reection from swimming pool, or reective
surface such as smooth white walls Relocate the unit
Light remains on Time is set too long Reduce time
Light remains on at
nighttime Possible heat source in detection zone
Cover PIR sensor lens with a thick cloth, if
the light turns o check detection area for
heat or reective source, reposition head and
decrease the sensitivity setting if this control
is available
Light switches on
during daylight hours LUX control screw is set to daylight position Turn the LUX control screw to desired light
level setting
When setting the lux
controls in daylight
the detection distance
becomes shorter
Interference by sunlight Re-test at night
