Introduction - motion detector
MZ 5000 motion detector
The MZ 5000 motion detector is a passive infrared motion detector. It
detects movements from heat sources (positive and negative ones) that
stand out from the ambient temperature.
The detection system is activated if the (passive) detection beams of
the motion detector are intersected by unprotected parts of the body—
such as the head (the head is the greatest source of heat loss from the
body) or hands—making tangential movements around the motion
detector (moving in a semi-circle around the motion detector).
The length of time the light should remain on (Time 1) after the last
movement has been detected can be set on the motion detector.
The MZ 5000 is equipped with a range stabilisation function, which
ensures that even during poor weather conditions, an acceptable
detection range can be maintained.
Faulty operations are suppressed to prevent the light from being
activated by interferences from movements caused by the wind and
trees blowing in the wind.
Despite technical advances, the geometric and physical laws cannot be
overcome. If a motion detector is installed too high up, it always will
seriously impact the coverage and detection quality.
Faulty operation cannot be completely ruled out.
Heat sources (i.e. light or heating) must therefore not be located below
the detector or in the immediate vicinity of the coverage area as this
can cause permanent faulty operation.
Lights must therefore always be installed above the detector (heat
rises). If lights are operated at the same height or to the side of the
detector, then a minimum distance of 2 m should be maintained.

180° coverage area including 360° creep zone
protection
View from above
Side view
The 180° coverage area including the 360° creep zone protection and
the dense detection area guarantee optimum performance.
This device is ideal for monitoring areas of up to 250 m2.
Reducing costs with the intelligent light, heating, ventilation and
air-conditioning management system
The Züblin MZ 5000 with two independent relays is the perfect energy
management system.
Relay 1 regulates and controls the lighting independently from persons
present and the brightness. Relay 2 is isolated and regulates the
heating, ventilation, sounds, etc. regardless of the brightness (max.
switching capacity: 5A)

Reducing the coverage area
The range of the motion detector can be adjusted using the integrated
left/right shutter.
By turning Tilt R (right) or Tilt L (left) up, a maximum range of up 16 m
can be achieved, by turning these down the range can be reduced to a
minimum of 4 m.
If you wish to further reduce the coverage area, then you can also use
the shutter. The range can be adapted using the horizontal and vertical
breaking points.
Please note that once broken off parts cannot be added back on.
Therefore use masking tape (electrical tape) for testing purposes and
only make changes to the shutter in accordance with the results from
the test.

Important (installation) notes
- Before starting to install the motion detector, ensure that the 230-volt
power supply cable is de-energised using a voltage tester.
- Any installations must be completed by trained specialists.
- The MZ 5000 motion detector is designed for internal and external
applications.
- If any functional faults, such as a continuous light or the light
switching on/off independently, please refer to "Troubleshooting" on
page 25.
Installation
The ideal installation height is 2.3 to 3 m, however, the MZ 5000 can
be used at heights of approx. 1.2 to 4 m. Fix the mounting base at the
required installation height (wall, corner or ceiling installation) and
thread the cable through the membranes into the base. Ensure that no
water can run along the cable duct in to the housing.
Close the motion detector as follow:
Phase (L) Neutral conductor (N) Switched phase (L1).
Relay 2 (designated by 5A NO), the isolated contact that functions
independently of the brightness, can be used to control the heating,
ventilation, sounds, etc (max. switching capacity: 5A).
Connecting electrical loads
High starting currents shorten the service life of the relay integrated
into the detector. To ensure the relay (16A) is not overloaded, please
observe the technical specifications (especially with regard to the
starting current of, for example, compact FL, FL and energy-saving
lights, etc., or this type/standard of compensation) provided by light
and lamp manufacturers. We recommend switching a maximum of
three to four motion detectors in parallel, if the number of switching
cycles is above average or in the event of increased (inductive) loads,
we recommend using the short pulse function on the motion detector
and switching the load via an external staircase timer switch or
contactor.

We recommend switching a maximum of three to four motion detectors
in parallel, if the number of switching cycles is above average or in the
event of increased (inductive) loads, we recommend using the short
pulse function on the motion detector and switching the load via an
external staircase timer switch or contactor.
Connection of a RC element (between the neutral conductor and
switched phase) for peak voltages or interferences caused by parallel
connection of energy-savings lights, relays and electronic ballasts.
Varistor (between the neutral conductor and the phase) for peak
voltages when the motion detector switches on during supply switching
pulses, etc.

Switch functions
Standard connection diagram for the detector: the detector can be
switched to the various modes via the breaker switch. Please note that
for this function, the rhythm of the pulse and break times must be
correctly adjusted. If a switch is used that is not directly next to the
detector, cable interferences may interrupt this function, which is
dependent on the installation, although there is no guarantee.
If the functionality of the switches is faulty, a capacitor/RC element can
be switched in parallel before the detector (from L to N).
Switch functions (by interrupting the detector's incoming phase
L, On/Off)
Press once (briefly press once for one second) and the device is
switched to automatic mode (relay 1 and 2), all other previously
selected modes are terminated or switched off even is they were
previously activated with the control pad.
Warning: If Time 1 is set to pulse, then ON, holiday and party mode
cannot be activated!
Press once (interruption of approx. two seconds): Light on relay 1
switches on for the amount of time set under the "Time 1 controller"
and then switches to automatic mode. Relay 2 is not included in this
function.
Press twice (two interruptions within two seconds): Party mode and
the light is permanently switched on for six hours or until dusk. Relay 2
is not included in this function.
Press three times (three interruptions within three seconds): Holiday
mode and the light is permanently switched on for the preset "DUSK
TIME" (OFF; two to eight hours) once the brightness value falls below
the value set with the "LUX" controller. It then switches to automatic
mode until the next day or the next time it starts to get dark.
Relay 2 is not included in this function.
This function is repeated daily until it is deactivated.
When selecting holiday mode via the control pad, it is set for 3.5 hours

MZ 5000
Controller
Dusk
Holiday mode and the light is switched on for the preset "DUSK TIME"
(OFF or two to eight hours) once the brightness value falls below the
value
set with the "LUX" controller (it then switches to automatic mode).
Relay 2 is not included in this function.
Mode is activated by interrupting the phase (see page 9) or can also
be activated using the control pad (see page 14/15).
Tilt L
Setting the tilt of the left sensor: Turning the controller "Down",
horizontally decreases the detection area (max. 26°) and the coverage
area is thereby reduced to a minimum of 4 m (at an installation height
of 2.5 m).
Turning the controller "Up" increases the range.
Lux
The twilight sensor regulates the operating threshold (light value
of 2 lux to day light) of the motion detector determining when the device
should be activated (only applies to relay 1!). Switching to the "Learn"
position: the current light value is saved as a reference value (the light
is turned off for ten seconds during this process). Careful not to
accidently reduce the amount of light on the detector, for example, by
covering it with your hand. Even in the event of a power failure, this
light value will be saved. The light value can be saved as many times
as you like. To do so, briefly turn the controller to the value (2 lux to day
light) and then switch back to the "Learn" position.
If a lux value is saved on the control pad, this can be overwritten by
turning to the "Learn" position and then selecting a different value.
11

Time 2
Timer 2 can be used to determine how long relay 2 (isolated contact)
shall remain on after the last movement is detected in the coverage
area (short pulse approx. 0.7 seconds, pulse approx. 20 seconds,
pause, timer of approx. min. 3 seconds to approx. max. 30 minutes).
Tilt R
Restricting the right coverage area (for characteristics see Tilt L)
Time 1
Timer 1 can be used to determine how long the light (relay 1) shall
remain on after the last movement is detected in the coverage area
(pulse approx. 0.7 seconds, pulse approx. 20 seconds, pause, approx.
min 3 seconds to approx. max. 30 minutes). Pulse = ON, holiday and
party mode cannot be activated!

Bi-directional Swiss Garde MZ 5000
The Swiss Garde MZ 5000 can
be extended to include
the bi-directional function
in a few simple steps.
Remove the plug-in module
at the rear of the
sensor head and insert
the bi-directional plug-in module
(including antenna) in its place.
(Un-) Installing a BiDi module
(Remove the detector from the
mains power supply before installation)
Carefully press the locking
clip (i.e. using a screwdriver)
and pull the plug-in module
down removing it from the detector.
Push the BiDi module
in to the detector from below.
Your bi-directional MZ 5000
is now ready to be programmed.
Press the programming buttons
on the BiDi module and the control pad (or a different motion detector)
consecutively. The bi-directional pair will remain in programming mode
for five minutes.
The pair is initialised as soon as the control pad and the MZ 5000
including the BiDi module each receive a signal. During the five-minute
programming mode, activate the motion detector by entering the
coverage area, wait until a sound is emitted by the control pad (signal
that something has been detected) and then press the "relay 1 button",
i.e. "auto". If the programming process was successful, the detector
acknowledges this by flashing the connected light three times. The LED
in the detector flashes once per cycle if a transmitter has not been
stored and flashes twice per cycle if one (or more) CPs have been
saved. 13

Key assignment
Please note: The relay 1 "Auto" button switches the holiday, party
and ON modes to automatic.
If a person is detected by the MZ 5000, the BiDi module transmits a
"detection signal to the CP". The designated sound is then emitted by
the CP and the LEDs on the control pad flash briefly. If a BiDi module
receives a command from a CP (observe channel selection!), this
command is completed by the detector, which then sends an
acknowledgement signal to the CP. The CP evaluates this signal, then
lights up the LEDs and emits three tones.
LED
Displays transmitted and received commands as well as
acknowledgement signals.
Relay 1
OFF = relay (light) switched off for 12 hours, then switches back to
automatic mode; Auto = automatic mode; ON = relay (light) switched
on for 12 hours, then switches back to automatic mode
Warning: If Time 1 is set to pulse, then ON, holiday or party mode
cannot be activated!
Holiday mode
By pressing the button, the light is permanently switched on for 3.5
hours once the brightness value falls below the value set with the
"LUX" controller. It then switches to automatic mode until the next day
or the next time it starts to get dark. Only applies to relay 1.
This function remains active (until it is deactivated).
Deactivating this function: Press the relay 1 "Auto" button or briefly
interrupt the power supply (i.e. using the pulse button -> see page 9) to
switch the detector back to automatic mode.
Warning: If Time 1 is set to pulse, then ON, holiday or party mode
cannot be activated!
<continued on page 16>
15

Learn button (lux value)
The current lux value can be stored using the "Learn" button (operating
threshold; light value on the motion detector that determines when the
device should be activated).
As soon as the required brightness is achieved, press the "Learn"
button for three seconds, or twice within the space of five seconds.
The measured lux value is saved as the threshold during which time
the light is switched off for ten seconds.
Ensure you do not accidently cast a shadow across the detector by
covering it with your hand, for example.
The lux value can be saved as many times as you like, the position of
the lux potentiometer on the motion detector is irrelevant (see page 10).
Even in the event of a power failure, this light value will be saved.
The light value saved using the control pad is overwritten, if the BiDi
module is reset (refer to Programming/pairing the CP and BiDi module,
page 19 to 20) or if the lux potentiometer is switched to the "Learn"
position and then set to a new value.
Party mode
The light (relay 1) is switched on continuously for six hours.
The light is switched off after this time has lapsed or at the next break
of dawn (if this occurs first).
However, party mode can also be terminated prematurely. To do this,
press the relay 1 "Auto" button. Warning: If Time 1 is set to pulse, then
ON, holiday or party mode cannot be activated!

Sound selection/acoustic signals
Once a CP and detector have been paired, a different detection sound
can then be assigned to each of the detectors on the CP. The channel
selection switch on the back of the CP can be set to a channel of your
choice, this assignment works in standard operation as well as in
programming mode.
1. If you step into the coverage area of the detector and a detection
is activated, the acoustic signal will sound.
2. Briefly press the sound selection button until the
required acoustic signal sounds.
3. Once you have selected the preferred sound, initiate
another detection to ensure that the sound
is assigned to the required detector.
Test mode button
In test mode, the coverage area can be controlled and adjusted. The
LED on the motion detector flashes briefly each time a movement is
detected and the light is switched on for three seconds.
Press the relay 1 "Auto" button to terminate test mode and to switch the
motion detector back to automatic mode.
Test mode can also be manually selected directly on the detector. To
do so, turn the lux value on to the symbol of the sun and the Time 1
controller to three seconds or to test. To terminate test mode, turn the
controller back to the required position.
Acoustic volume control
Any movements that are detected are signalled acoustically on the
control pad. The volume can be adjusted by briefly pressing the button.
The following operating modes are available:
high/medium/low/beep/off.
<continued on page 18>
17

Programming button
Press the programming button for one second to switch the CP to
programming mode. You can now pair the CP with a MZ5000/BiDi
module. Assign each motion detector a channel and when pairing
ensure that the channel selection switch (1-2-3-4) on the rear of the CP
is set to the required channel and that the programming button on the
BiDi module has been activated. You can now program the CP and MZ
5000 for the next five minutes. Even if the channel is changed, the CP
remains in programming mode.
If you would like to terminate the programming mode prematurely, then
press the programming button for one second. The CP will
acknowledge termination of the programming mode with a beep.
Once a channel has been successfully programmed it cannot be
"overwritten". If an incorrect channel has been assigned, this can only
be deleted by resetting the CP:
For further details and the exact pairing/programming process are
detailed in the section"Programming/pairing the CP and BiDi
module" on page 19 to 20.
To complete a reset, press and hold the programming button for five
seconds. All of the saved channels will be deleted and the CP is
switched to programming mode.
Relay 2
OFF = relay (i.e. air conditioning etc.) switched off (for 12 hours), then
switches back to automatic mode; Auto = automatic mode; ON = relay
(light) switched on permanently (for 12 hours), then switches back to
automatic mode
Warning: when relay 2 is in pulse function, ON mode cannot be
activated!
18

Programming/pairing the CP and BiDi module
Only when both of the devices being paired (CP with BiDi module, or
BiDi module with BiDi module) are in programming mode can they
actually be paired.
Safety: The CP and the BiDi module, or the BiDi module and BiDi
module must be paired. Thanks to the encoded signal, an external
transmitter cannot operate the BiDi module or the CP.
If a channel (1-2-3-4) is assigned to a different device (CP or BiDi
module) (and vice versa), then this channel is taken and cannot be
assigned to another device. A device that has already been saved
cannot be saved on the same receiver/transmitter or BiDi module/CP
again.
Any received "codes" are automatically saved in sequence (channel 1-
2-3-4) in the memory of the relevant receiver.
If, for example, a control pad (i.e. channel 1) has already been
assigned to a BiDi module, then the CP cannot be assigned another
channel.
If a channel was accidentally (or on purpose) paired with the "wrong"
device or programming was aborted, the channel cannot be
overwritten or deleted separately. Instead, a complete reset must be
completed.
To reset, press and hold the programming button on the CP and then
the BiDi module (or if applicable, on both BiDi modules) for five
seconds. Following a successful reset, the devices will switch to the
programming mode.
Please note that all of the saved channels as well as any stored lux
values will be lost and must be reprogrammed.
Preparing for programming/pairing
When programming a new device, ensure that the channel selection
switch on the CP is set to the next free channel. Devices that are not
meant to be paired or that are already paired should be disconnected
from the power supply or should not be used to ensure that the
programming process is not accidentally interrupted.
If batteries are put in a newly supplied CP (or following a reset) all of
the acoustic signals are played in sequence and the CP switches to
programming mode for five minutes. 19

CP/BiDi module programming process
Connect the power supply to the motion detector.
The motion detector is ready for operation after approx. one minute
(LED on the detector is switched off after permanent On mode is
selected).
1. Press the programming button on the BiDi module for one second.
(see page 13)
The BiDi module switches to programming mode. The LED on the
detector starts to flash and the relays are switched off.
2. Press the programming button on the CP for one second.
(see page 14 if the CP is not already in programming mode).
The CP is placed in programming mode for five minutes.
3. Initiate a detection by the motion detector.
The motion detector sends a signal to the CP and the CP automatically
saves the received code on the next available channel. To
acknowledge receipt, the CP emits a sound and the LEDs on the CP
briefly light up. This indicates that the channel has been successfully
programmed.
4. Briefly press the relay 1 button (On/Off or auto).
(see page 14) (Make sure you the channel selection switch is set
correctly beforehand!)
The CP sends a radio signal and the BiDi module saves the received
code on the next available channel. The LED on the detector lights up
for one second and the light switches on for five seconds. The BiDi
module ends the programming mode and sends an acknowledgement
signal to the CP. The CP emits three beeps and the LEDs on the CP
briefly light up indicating that the channel has been programmed
successfully.
Now assign the acoustic signal on the detector. This can be completed
during programming mode or standard operation.
5. Step in to the coverage area of the detector and initiate a detection,
this will activate the acoustic signal. Now select the required sound by
briefly pressing the sound selection button. Then initiate another
detection to ensure that the sound is assigned to the relevant detector.
The sounds can be assigned as many times as required and is not
dependent on the channel selection switch.
