The INSTABUS ARGUS 220 Connect (subsequently
called ARGUS) is an EIB movement detector which
can be used both indoors and outdoors due to its IP 55
protection rating. Surface monitoring of 220° for larger
house fronts and areas of the house (max. range of 16
m) is combined with a 360° short-range zone with a ra-
dius of approx. 4 m. The operating elements for setting
the brightness, time and sensitivity (range) as well as
the programming area and a red LED for displaying the
programming are located under the cover plate for pro-
tection. The physical address is programmed using a
programming magnet (e.g. art. no. 639190).
The universal device enables wall and ceiling mounting
without any additional fittings and can be attached to
corners or fixed pipes with the mounting bracket (art.
no. 5652 ..) which is available as an accessory. The in-
tegrated functional display lights up when movement
is detected and thus simplifies the alignment of the
device at the installation site. You can also switch off
the functional display via a parameter setting. The area
of detection can be adapted to the local conditions due
to the horizontally, vertically and axially adjustable sen-
sor head. You can also block unwanted zones or sour-
ces of interference (e.g. trees) from the area of
detection using the blanking inserts provided.
The device is fitted with a light sensor whose bright-
ness threshold can be set between 3 and 1000 lux.
Depending on the application, it is also possible to use
the device as a light-sensitive switch or to link the
brightness threshold with the detection of movement.
Several movement detectors can be combined toge-
ther in a system.
The power is supplied via the bus line. No additional
mains connection is required. As the bus line is con-
nected directly to the terminal block in the wall con-
nection box, a bus connecting terminal is not required.

What you need to know about the installation site
¼Danger due to electrical current!
All work on the device should only be carried
out by qualified electricians. Both the country-
specific regulations and the valid EIB guidelines
should be observed.
When selecting a suitable installation site, you should
take numerous standpoints into account so that the
movement detector operates at the optimum level.
The following diagram shows the ranges of the AR-
GUS. They are based on average temperature conditi-
ons at a mounting height of 2.5 m. The range of a
movement detector can fluctuate considerably at vari-
able temperatures.
–A: Inner security zone with an angle of detection of
360° and a radius of approx. 4 m.
–B: Central security zone with an angle of detection
of 220° and an area of detection of approx.
9mx18m.
–C: Outer security zone with an angle of detection of
220° and an area of detection of approx.
16 m x 28 m.

–D: Select a mounting height between 2 m and 3 m.
For optimum monitoring, we recommend a height
of 2.5 m on a solid and even base.
–E: Maintain a distance of at least 5 m from sources
of optical interference. Use the blanking inserts pro-
vided if necessary.
In principle, you should not mount the luminaire under-
neath the ARGUS. The radiated heat from the lumin-
aire can influence the function of the movement
detector and lead to a permanent lighting circuit under
certain conditions:
A minimum distance of 5 m (F) should be maintained
between the luminaire and the movement detector. If
this distance cannot be achieved, you can use the in-
serts provided to "blank out" the light source from the
area of detection.
If possible, mount the movement detector sideways
to the direction of travel:
To avoid the connected load being switched on due to
environmental influences, the ARGUS should if pos-
sible be mounted so that it is protected against rain
and direct sunlight. A raindrop running over the lens,
for example, can activate the movement detector.
¼Risk of damage!
If the installation is not carried out correctly, wa-
ter can penetrate the ARGUS and damage it. Al-
ways mount it with the spherical head pointing
downwards.
If you wish to attach several movement detectors,
mount them so that the detection areas of the indivi-
dual movement detectors intersect each other.

Version 03/04 4
|Movement detectors are not suitable for use as
components of an alarm system as defined by
the German insurance industry association VdS
(Verband der Sachversicherer). After a bus volta-
ge failure, the detectors may be triggered inde-
pendently of movements. This could in turn
trigger the alarm function.
|Movement detectors can trigger false alarms if
the installation site has been chosen unfavou-
rably.
Movement detectors switch as soon as they detect a
moving heat source. This can be a person, but also
trees, cars or differences in temperature in windows.
In order to avoid false alarms, the chosen installation
site should be such that undesired heat sources can-
not be detected. Undesired sources of heat could in-
clude the following:
– moving trees, shrubbery etc. with a temperature
that differs from that of their surroundings
– windows where the influence of sunlight and
clouds could cause rapid changes in temperature.
– larger heat sources (e.g. cars), that are detected th-
rough windows.
– insects running over the lens.
– small animals
– rooms flooded with light where the light is reflected
on objects (e.g. the floor), which can be the cause
of rapid changes in temperature.
How to install the ARGUS
1Loosen the two screws and remove the wall con-
nection box from the device.
2Mark the intended drill holes on the mounting sur-
face.
3If you wish to insert a bus line from the top into the
back of the device, clip the four spacers supplied
onto the wall connection box.

4A: Insert the bus line from behind. Slide the rubber
grommet supplied over the stripped bus line.
B: Insert the bus line from underneath. Cut the rub-
ber insert supplied according to the cable thickness
and place it in the wall connection box. Slide the
bus line through.
5Install the wall connection box in the intended loca-
tion using the screws and plugs supplied.
Installing the ARGUS on the ceiling
In order to install the ARGUS on the ceiling, you must
rotate the sensor head. Change the direction of rotati-
on once you have reached the end stops.
1Turn the sensor head upwards until it reaches the
stop.
2Turn the sensor head clockwise until it reaches the
stop.
3Align the sensor head.
¼Risk of damage!
If not installed correctly, the device can be da-
maged by condensation. In the case of sloping
ceilings, mount the device so that the spherical
head points downwards and always at an angle
of 15-90°.
When the spherical head points downwards, water
from condensation could run down the device.
|Note
The protection rating IP 55 cannot be guaran-
teed if the mounting angle is not 15-90°.

Mounting the ARGUS on corners and fixed pipes
You can mount the ARGUS on inner/outer corners or
fixed pipes using the Merten mounting bracket (acces-
sories, art. no. 5652 91/92/93). You can feed the bus
line to the device from behind through the mounting
bracket.
Connecting the EIB bus line
1Strip approx. 14 mm of insulation from the bus li-
nes.
2Insert the red bus line (+) into the (+) terminal.
3Insert the black bus line (-) into the (-) terminal.
|Note
You can wire the bus line through the two termi-
nals (+) and (–) without any problems arising.
Mounting the top section of the ARGUS
1Place the top section on the wall connection box
from the front. Ensure that the connecting pins in-
serted in the top section do not become bent.
2Fix the top section with the two screws supplied.
3Place the cover plate onto the markings and slide it
downwards.

Putting the ARGUS into operation
The operating elements of the ARGUS are protected
by the cover plate. You can read off the set values
thanks to the position of the arrow shown on the con-
trollers.
1Slide the plate upwards by approx. 6 mm until you
feel it hit the stop, and then pull it forwards.
2Load the physical address and the application into
the movement detector using the EIB Tool Softwa-
re (ETS).
A: When assigning the physical address, guide a
programming magnet (e.g. art. no. 6391 90) over
the programming area.
B: During the assignment, the programming LED
lights up. It is extinguished if the physical address
has been loaded successfully.
Conducting a functional test
|Note
Depending on the application program, you can
either set the time in the software or on the
time controller.
1Set the time to 1 second (left-hand stop).
2Set the brightness controller to daytime operation
(sun symbol/right-hand stop) or select the setting
"independent of brightness" in ETS.
3Set the sensitivity to maximum (right-hand stop).
The functional display lights up after each detection of
movement e.g. when you place your hand in front of
the ARGUS.
Setting the ARGUS
¼Risk of damage!
The sensor head should only be rotated until it
reaches the stop and no further.
To achieve an angle "above" the stop, change the
direction of rotation.
1Align the sensor head of the movement detector to
the monitored area.
2Step from the edge into the area of detection and
check whether the ARGUS switches the load and
the functional display.
Setting the sensitivity
The sensitivity can be infinitely adjusted with the sen-
sitivity controller so that the ARGUS detects move-
ments up to a distance of 16 m.

Version 03/04 8
Setting the brightness
The brightness threshold can be infinitely adjusted in a
range between approx. 3 lux and 1000 lux. In daytime
operation (sun symbol), the ARGUS switches after
each movement, regardless of the external brightness.
In night operation (moon symbol), it only reacts below
3 lux (darkness).
Setting the time
This makes it possible to set the overshoot time of the
connected loads. This is the time period from the last
detected movement until the load is switched off. De-
pending on the ETS application, the overshoot time is
either set in the ETS program (infinitely between
3 seconds and 152 seconds) or directly on the ARGUS
(six steps of approx. 1 second to approx. 8 minutes).
|Once the load has been switched on, the set
brightness threshold is ignored. Depending on
the settings in ETS, each registered movement
can reset the overshoot time. If the movement
detector no longer switches off, it is probably
because it is continually detecting new move-
ments and is thus always extending the
overshoot time.
Masking out individual areas
Using the four inserts supplied, you can shield unwan-
ted zones and sources of interference from the area of
detection.
1Place the inserts exactly on those areas of the sen-
sor head which should be masked from detection.
2Ensure that the brightness sensor (A) is not cove-
red as the sensitivity to light is otherwise reduced.
