SPECIFICATION
The P-lux lantern switches on automatically at dusk. The lantern will stay in a dim down mode,
when the PIR is activated the P-Lux will lux up to full brightness for 60 seconds or 60 seconds
from the last trigger. It will then return to the dim down mode, and switch off automatically at dawn.
approaching. The P-lux3 is fitted with temperature compensation to give a consistent detection
range. (6m) in all weather. For the PIR to work at its best, the PIR should be crossed,
not approached head-on. The examples below illustrate this.
The sensor is controlled by a built-in photocell so that it operates only between dusk and dawn.
Once the sensor has turned on the light, it will stay on for approximately 60 seconds.
NOTE: When the lantern is positioned directly facing a person walking straight towards it,
the detection range can be as little as 1.5 metres.We therefore recommend that the lantern be
positioned to the side of the entrance.

On the initial power up, your lantern will go into one complete cycle that is full light for 45 seconds
followed by a slow dim down and it will then switch off (in day time). This power up cycle will
happen regardless the light level of the environment.
After installing your P-Lux 3 Led lantern, simply walk past your lantern and look for the blue
LED (Motion Indicator) on the PIR to flash which means your lantern is in range but the light will not
come on in day light.
