• Mount the floodlight onto solid brickwork, 3 - 5m above the ground (Fig. 1).
• The sensor should be mounted horizontal to ensure the
detection area is maximized by being even from side to side.
• Installation under eaves is acceptable but radiated and
convected heat from the fitting must be taken into account.
• Avoid pointing the PIR sensor at trees & shrubs,
hot ventilator ducts, air conditioners street lighting
or traffic which may interfere with its operation.
• Do not allow sunlight to fall directly onto the front
of the PIR sensor, otherwise poor triggering response
may occur.
• Prior to mounting, keep in mind that the PIR sensor
is more sensitive to a heat source moving across
its coverage area and less sensitive to a heat source
that moves directly towards the PIR sensor (Fig.2).

• Unscrew the nut from the mounting bracket and remove the bracket from the floodlight.
• Use the bracket to mark the drill hole and the cable outlet location.
• Drill the wall and screw the bracket onto the wall
using the wall plugs and screws provided (Fig.3).
• Re-attach the floodlight to the bracket and secure the cable
(and additional lighting load supply cable if applicable)
to the wall using suitable clips.
• Ensure that the cable is not touching the body of the
floodlight, and that there is sufficient slack in the cable
to allow the floodlight to be tilted and adjusted as required.
NB: Tilt and adjust the floodlight by grasping the metal body of the floodlight,
not the wiring box.
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: Isolate the power supply before installation.
• The unit requires connection to a 220-240 AC 50Hz mains electricity supply.
• It is recommended that the unit is connected
to the domestic lighting circuit via a 5 amp
fused spur and using 3-core round
flexible cable of at least
1mm2 gauge (Fig. 4).
• It is also advisable to install a single pole wall
switch to allow easy control of the floodlight.
• Prior to installing the floodlight the cable
gland needs to be attached by undoing the
four screws from the wiring box, removing
the cover (Fig.5) and fitting the gland to the
wiring box, as shown in (Fig.6).
• The AC cable should then be routed through
the cable gland as shown in (Fig.7).
• To connect, strip approximately 6mm of
insulation from each of the 3 cores of the
AC cable and:
- Connect the wire coloured BROWN or RED (Live)
to the corresponding BROWN wire in the terminal block,
or the terminal marked “L”
- Connect the wire coloured BLUE or BLACK (Neutral)
to the corresponding BLUE wire in the terminal block,
or the terminal marked “N”
- Connect the wire coloured YELLOW/GREEN
(Earth wire) to the corresponding YELLOW/GREEN
terminal block marked (Fig.8).
• Finally, gently tighten up the nut against
the gland body, to ensure the wire is secured
in place by the sealing gland (Fig.7).
