OPERATION
The passive infrared sensors work by detecting the difference between
heat emitted from the human body in motion and the background space.
The sensor switch can turn a load on and hold it as long as the sensor
detects occupancy. After no motion is detected for the set time delay, the

The Load does not turn On without LED flashing or LED flashes
1. Push and release the button
2. Verify the Sensitivity Range is on high.
