Specifications
Installation
The movement detector has been designed for a harsh climate, complying with the strict IP66 rating and is intended to be used in outdoor
installations, however the detector can be installed indoors.
The detector can be installed on the ceiling surface or on the wall. It must be installed onto the (included) surface mounting block to
maintain IP66 rating. The recommended mounting height of the detector is 2.4m.
The head should be oriented in such a way that the expected traffic is moving across the field of view of the detector and not directly
towards it. Refer to Figure 2.
To change the head orientation, adjust the head position by hand to the desired position. Refer to Figure 3 to see different mounting options.
Add silicon flush caps (provided) to mounting holes to maintain IP66 rating.
If you intend to use multiple sensors on the same circuit ensure sensoring range/area does not overlap.

Operation
Range Sensitivity
Light Sensitivity
Timer
The detector will turn the load on if a warm body moves in its viewing range. The Range Sensitivity adjustment knob determines the range.
The movement detector can be setup so that it only turns the load on when it is dark. The setting of the Lux adjustment knob
determines the light level at which the Detector starts operating the load.
The load stays turned on for a predetermined amount of time. The time that the load stays turned on depends on the setting of the
Timer adjustment knob.
The detector can be adjusted to react to different levels of movement and at different distances.
At its most sensitive setting it may detect a small child or animal at a full distance. At the least sensitive setting it may require a large
person at a close distance to detect movement.
The detector may detect movement under certain conditions that could be interpreted as false operation. Ensure you place the detector
carefully, taking into consideration surrounding objects that may be detected by the sensor, such as passing cars, waves in the swimming
pool, tree branches moving in the wind or any other movement of warm objects or warm air.
These conditions may cause unwanted operation of the detector, while the detector itself is still working correctly. The user has to be
aware of these conditions and should take measures to minimize the possibility of their occurrence.
Note: The range of movement detection depends on external conditions such as the ambient temperature, body temperature, clothing,
speed of movement, etc.
The movement detector can be setup to operate during different light conditions, such as night only or day and night. At the minimum ‘Lux’
control setting the sensor will detect movement only when it is dark. At the maximum setting the sensor will operate during day and night.
In that way users can adjust the operating conditions to suit their needs and save energy.
Note: Use a screwdriver as tool.
The time that the load stays turned on can be varied from 8 secs to 15 mins. Rotating the ‘Time’ knob anti-clockwise reduces load ‘ON’
duration. This feature allows the user to balance energy savings and convenience.

3 Setting Up
Remote loads can be connected up to the maximum rating. Refer to Figure 5 for electrical connection options.
Note: Different connection and configuration options are possible, e.g. for remote control of detector’s operation. All wiring for such
circuits must be done by a licensed electrician.
Before the detector is commissioned for operation it should be tested by a “Walk test”:
1. Set Sensitivity and Lux adjustment knobs, see figure 1, to fully clockwise position and Time knob to fully anti-clockwise position.
2. Turn the power on and allow 1 minute for the sensor to warm up before proceeding.
3. Adjust the head position as required. See figure 3.
4. Walk across the detector’s view range to ensure the light turns on and off.
To setup the detector for day-to-day operation adjust the knobs so that their settings reflect the desired mode of operation.
Note: Adjusting for the correct light level is dependent on the ambient light and it could take several days until the right light level
setting is found.

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SUGGESTED SOLUTION
Light does not switch ON
when there is movement in
the detection area.
1. No mains voltage. Check all connections, circuit breakers and switches.
2. Bulb faulty or missing. Check and replace if required.
3. Nearby lighting is too bright. Redirect the sensor or relocate the unit.
4. Controls set incorrectly. Readjust the sensor angle or control knob.
5. Sensor positioned in wrong direction. Redirect the sensor and/or adjust.
Light switches ON for no
apparent reason (false
trigger).
1. Heat from lamp body activating sensor. Adjust PIR sensor or lamp body to allow a minimum
gap of 40mm between lamp body and sensor head.
2. Heat sources such as air-con, vents, heater flues,
barbecues, other outside lighting or moving cars are
activating sensor.
Adjust direction of sensor head away from these
sources.
3. Animals/birds e.g. possums or domestic animals. Redirecting sensor head may help.
4. Interference from switching off electric fans or lights
on the same circuit as your sensor.
Should the false triggering become troublesome,
consider:
(a) have the other switches checked for arcing faults;
(b) replacing noisy fluorescent tubes and/or starters
and
(c) connecting the sensor to a separate circuit. (In
most cases where one or more of the above
suggestions have been carried out, false triggering
has been reduced).
5. Reflection from swimming pool or reflective surfaces. Redirect sensor
Light remains on. 1. Continuously false triggered. Redirecting sensor head may help.
2. Time adjustment is set too long. Reduce time.
Light switches on during
daylight.
Lux control knob is set to daylight position. Turn the Lux control knob to desired light level setting.
When setting Lux controls
in daylight the detection
distance becomes shorter.
Interference by sunlight. Re-test at night.
