SECTION ONE
GENERAL INFORMATION
The unit utilises passive infrared technology to detect heat radiation of moving human
bodies.
During the hours of darkness the unit fully illuminates when it senses movement within its
detection field.
PARTS INCLUDED
- Luminaire c/w PIR Sensor unit.
- Instruction manual. Please keep safe for future reference.
- Accessory Pack.
TOOLS & PARTS NEEDED
- Electric/hand-held drill & bits.
- Terminal or Electricians screwdriver
- Large slotted/philips screwdriver
- Wire cutters
Unit is for outdoor use only. Unit must be mounted on a non-flammable surface as a fixed
luminaire, and is not suitable for portable use.
The unit can get very hot during use. Ensure the unit has cooled before handling.
Ensure adequate ventilation space is allowed between the unit and any object above, in
front or to either side of the unit. Suggested space is 0.5m above, 0.3m to either side &
1.0m in front. If in any doubt, consult a qualified tradesperson or electrician.
DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT WITH COMPACT FLUORESCENT ENERGY SAVING LAMPS.
SECTION TWO
SELECTING THE LOCATION
The motion detector has a number of detection zones, at various vertical and horizontal
angles as shown (see diagram A).
A moving human body needs to cross/enter one of these zones to activate the sensor. The
best
all-round coverage is achieved with the unit mounted at the optimum height of 1.8m.
Careful positioning of the sensor will be required to ensure optimum performance. See
diagram A detailing detection range and direction.
The sensor is more sensitive to movement ACROSS its field of vision than to movement
directly TOWARDS (see diagram B). Therefore position the unit so that the sensor looks
ACROSS the likely approach path.
Avoid positioning the sensor where there are any sources of heat in the detection area
(extractor fans, tumble dryer exhausts etc.).
Reflective surfaces (ie pools of water or white-painted walls) and overhanging branches may
cause false activation under extreme conditions.
During extreme weather conditions the motion sensor may exhibit unusual behaviour. This
does not indicate a fault with the sensor. Once normal weather conditions return, the
sensor will resume normal operation.

SECTION THREE
INSTALLATION
After choosing a suitable location (see previous section) install the unit as follows:
The unit is suitable for connection to a 230 V ac 50Hz electricity supply. It is suggested that
3-core round flexible cable of 1mm2gauge is used. A isolating switch should be installed to
switch the power to the unit ON & OFF. This allows the sensor to be easily switched off
when not required or for maintenance purposes.
Remove the lantern backplate by unscrewing the brass domed nuts. Remove the terminal
block from its mount. Punch through the knockouts in the backplate.
Mark the position of the fitting holes.
Drill the holes. Insert the rawl plugs into the holes.
PIERCE & PASS THE CABLE THROUGH THE GROMMET BEFORE PROCEEDING.
Attach the mounting plate to the wall using suitable screws. Do not overtighten the
mounting screws as this could damage the mounting plate.
Re-affix the terminal block onto the wall mounting plate.
*** IMPORTANT ***
Switch off the electricity at the fuse box by removing the relevant fuse or switching
off the circuit breaker before proceeding with the installation.
Mounting Plate

CONNECTION
Connect the cable to the terminal block on the unit as follows (see connection diagram):
NEUTRAL (Blue) N
EARTH (Green/Yellow)
LIVE (Brown) L
Ensure that the connections are secure.
Fasten the lantern to the backplate using the domed nuts,
ensuring the wiring box seal is correctly in place.
Install the lightbulb (not supplied).
Install the glass panels, ensuring they are seated correctly.
Fit and secure the lantern lid.

SECTION FOUR
OPERATION AND TESTING
WALK TESTING PROCEDURE
The sensor will rotate from left to right. Adjust the sensor to point in the desired direction.
Set the two adjustment controls on the rear of the unit (diagram C) to the following
positions:
DUSK - Fully clockwise
TIME - Fully anti-clockwise
The unit will now operate during daytime as well as at night, illuminating the lamp at full
power for approx. 5 seconds each time. This allows testing to be carried out to establish the
best position for the sensor.
The lamp will immediately illuminate at full power as the unit goes through its "warm-up"
period. Try to remain outside the detection area during the warm-up period.
Walk across the detection area approx 5 metres from the unit. As you cross a detection
"zone" the lamp will switch to full power.
Start moving again. As you cross each "zone" the lamp will switch back to full power.
Repeat the above, walking at various distances and angles to the unit. This will help you to
establish the detection pattern.
SETTING UP FOR AUTOMATIC OPERATION
When walk tests are complete, the unit can be switched to automatic operation :
The TIME setting controls how long the unit remains illuminated following activation &
after all motion ceases. The minimum time (fully anti-clockwise) is approx. 5 seconds, whilst
the maximum time (fully clockwise) is approx. 5 minutes. Set the control to the desired
setting between these limits.
The DUSK control determines the level of darkness required for the unit to start operating.
The setting is best achieved by the procedure below:
Set the DUSK control knob fully anti-clockwise. Wait until darkness falls.
When the ambient light level reaches the level of darkness at which you wish the lamp to
become operative (ie. At dusk), SLOWLY rotate the control in a clockwise direction until a
point is reached where the lamp illuminates. Leave the control set at this point.
At this position, the unit should become operative at approximately the same level of
darkness each evening. Observe the operation of the unit. If the unit is starting to operate
too early (ie. when it is quite light), adjust the control slightly anti-clockwise. If the unit
starts to operate too late (ie. only when it is very dark), adjust the control slightly clockwise.
Continue to adjust until the unit operates as desired.

SECTION SIX
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
PROBLEM
❏Lamp stays ON all the time
at night.
❏PIR keeps activating for no
reason / at random.
❏PIR sensor will not operate
at all.
❏The PIR sensor will not
operate at night.
❏Unit activates during the
daytime
❏PIR coverage is
poor/sporadic
❏ Detection range varies from
day to day
SOLUTION
The unit may be suffering from false activation. Cover the
sensor lens completely with a thick cloth. This will prevent
the sensor from "seeing" anything. If the unit now
switches off after the set time duration and does not re-
activate, this indicates that the problem was caused by
false activation. The problem may be solved by slightly
adjusting the direction/angle of the sensor head (see
previous section).
You may not be allowing the unit time to complete it's
warm-up period. Stand well out of the detection range and
wait (the warm-up period should never exceed 5 minutes).
Occasionally, winds may activate the sensor. Sometimes passages
between buildings etc. can cause a "wind tunnel" effect.
Ensure the unit is not positioned so as to allow detection of
cars/people using public thoroughfares adjacent to your property.
Check that the power is switched ON at the circuit
breaker/internal wall switch.
Turn OFF the power to the unit and check the wiring
connections as per the diagram (see previous section 3).
Ensure no connections are loose.
Check the lamp. If the lamp has failed, replace. Ensure that
the lamp is seated correctly in the lampholder.
The level of ambient light in the area may be too bright to
allow operation at the current DUSK setting. During the
hours of darkness, adjust the DUSK control slowly
clockwise until the lamp illuminates. Refer to previous
section for more details.
The level of ambient light in the area may be too dark for
the current DUSK setting. During daylight, adjust the DUSK
control slightly anti-clockwise. When the lamp load
extinguishes, enter the detection area. If the PIR still
activates, the setting is still too high. Repeat the above
procedure until the PIR does not activate when you enter
the detection area. Refer to previous section for more
details.
Unit may be poorly located. See previous section -
‘Selecting The Location’ and re-locate the unit.
PIR sensors are influenced by climatic conditions. The colder
the ambient temperature, the more effective the sensor will
be. You may need to make seasonal adjustments to the sensor
head position to ensure trouble-free operation all year round.
