OVERVIEW
MOTION SENSOR 360 - VOLT FREE
The Faradite Motion Sensor 360
- Volt Free is a low prole passive
infrared ceiling mounted motion
sensor. It’s designed for use with
home/building/lighting control
systems that have volt free / dry
contact inputs.
At 2.5M it gives a 5.6M * 6.6M
detection area.
At 3M it gives a ~8M diameter, as
shown below.
The following conditions have to
be met to detect motion:
1.Movement speed: 1.0m/s
2.Target concept is a human body
(Min object size: ~700×250mm)
3. The temperature dierence
between the target and the
surroundings must be greater
than 4 ° C when mounted at 5M

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
It is recommended to use CAT cable
to connect the motion sensor to the
control system. Stranded cable can
be used (20-24 AWG) but please
insert the supplied tool to open the
spring before inserting the wire.
1: Strip the cable back 6mm
2: Push into circular hole
3: To remove the wire insert the
supplied tool or a small screwdriver
in the slot behind the wire

FIRE RATING
The stand-alone Motion Sensor 360
- Volt Free is not re rated.
To achieve a 60 minute re rating to
BS 476: Part 21 1987, the optional
Fire IDR must be tted to the
Motion Sensor 360 - Volt Free.
The Fire IDR is an optional extra.
RELAY
NOTE: After applying power, the sensor will calibrate for roughly
8 seconds; during this period no motion will be reported.

INSTALLATION
To install the Faradite Motion
Sensor 360 - Volt Free, cut a 35mm
hole using a suitable hole saw. Fold
the spring clips upwards and push
through the hole. If you are using
the optional Fire IDR to achieve a
60 minute re rating to BS 476: Part
21 1987, then a 40mm hole will be
required.

CONNECTION TO LOXONE
Connection to Loxone is simple: connect
one side of the relay to a digital input on the
MiniServer / Extension / Nano DI Tree / Nano
IO Air and the other side to 24V. Simply provide
the 24V supply from the power supply in the
cabinet or the 24V output of a Nano IO Air if
retrotting.
MOUNTING & SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS
1) Do not under any circumstance
use these sensors outside the range
of their ratings shown in the technical
data.
2) Faradite is committed to making
products of the highest quality and
reliability. Nevertheless, all electrical
components are subject to natural
deterioration, and the product
durability will depend on the
operating environment and
conditions of use.
3) Please note that the sensor can
detect heat sources other than the
human body, such as:
a) Small animals
b) Direct sun light, incandescent
lamps, car headlights (even if the heat
source is outside the detection area)
c) Sudden temperature change inside
or around the detection area i.e. hot
or cold winds/drafts or vapour from a
humidier can aect the
performance of the sensor
4) Please note that the sensor will
have diculty sensing the heat
source if it is behind glass, acrylic or
similar materials, as these materials
may not allow a correct transmission
of infrared rays
CONNECTION TO CONTROL4
Connection to Control4 is simple: connect one
side of the relay to the “SIGNAL” input on a contact
closure and the other side of the relay to the 12V
power supply. Simply provide the sensor power
using the +12V and GND outputs of the contact
closure or any other 5V-24V supply. When using a
contact closure the generic motion sensor driver can be used. You might
need to tick the invert tickbox depending on what contact closure you have
connected the sensor to as the sensor is “normally open”.
Janus Technology have written a driver that integrates the Faradite Motion
Sensor 360 - Volt Free with Control4, via a Brainboxes’ I/O device as an
alternative to a contact input. Search for “Faradite Janus Technology driver”
for more info.
CONNECTION TO CRESTRON
Connection to Crestron is simple: connect one
side of the relay to a digital input and the other
side to GND (G) and congure the input as a
dry contact. The sensor can be powered using
any available 5-24V supply.

CONNECTION TO LUTRON
Connection to Lutron is simple: One side
of the relay should be connected to the
“INPUT” of a contact closure input (CCI) and
the other side should be connected to the
“COMMON” of the CCI. Any 5-24V power
supply can be used to power the sensor.

SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENT
The sensor has been designed for optimal sensitivity.
It is not recommended to change the sensitivity
setting unless it is found to be necessary. To adjust
the sensitivity, remove the two screws and turn over
the circuit board. The small potentiometer can be
used to adjust the sensitivity.
