120/240/300° Outdoor Motion Detector
Swiss Garde 4000

Warning!
- Any work on the main power supply must only be completed by trai-
ned specialists.
- The product must be installed in accordance with installation guideli-
nes/standards specific to your country.
- Disconnect the 230V power supply before starting the installation
process.
- As a precautionary measure, the power supply of the light should
always be fitted with a (250VAC, 10A) type C fuse in accordance
with EN60898-1.
- Faulty lamps may cause a short-circuit and thereby permanently
damage the device.
- Disconnect power prior to replacing a lamp.
- To ensure the operational reliability of the detector, keep a minimal
distance of 1m to lamps installed on the same height level.
- Lamps installed underneath the detector or in the detection area may
disturb the functionality. Keep detector away from heating devices.
- In case of malfunction, such as continuous lighting, or false triggering
please refer to the troubleshooting section on page 9.
Function
The detector reacts to the motion of heat (positive or negative in rela-
tion to the environment). If a person approaches the monitored area,
the device will turn on the connected light automatically. If the person
leaves the area, the light will be switched off after the preset duration
(short impulse, 10 sec. to 20 min.). The connected light will be turned
on only when the ambient light value is below the adjusted value.
Installation site
Install the device protected from weather conditions to maintain operation
reliability and product lifetime. Respect a minimum distance of 1 m to lights
fitted on the same height level. Lights mounted underneath the detector but
within the detection area may impair its function. Please check the trouble
shooting section for further details.

Mounting height
1. Standard mounting height 2.5 m. For efficient pet tolerance
functionality, we recommend a mounting height of 2.2 to 3 m. Check
range by walking around in the detection area. Depending on site
conditions, it might be necessary for the detector head to be tilted
down one step or to be rotated by ± 10° from a mounting height
exceeding 2.8 m.
2. Tilting detector head towards the ground impairs pet tolerance func-
tionality. Directing the rear view observation lens towards the sky (240°
and 300° models only) will not detect persons but will increase probabi-
lity of malfunctions. In case of such an application, the lens should be
covered with the louvre clips included in the scope of supply (see
picture on page 4).

Installation
Wire the detector as follows:
phase/outer conductor (L) brown; neutral/neutral conductor (N) blue;
switching output / switched phase/ outer conductor (L’) red
The removal of bridge L/D1 makes contact D1/D2 potential free.
Optional: remote switching (R) via (supply of the phase) impulse switch
(no neon bulbs!). Keep cables short!
Capacitive currents at terminal (R) may trigger malfunctions.
Earth conduct, earth wire (green/yellow) = not required
The device is operational after approx. 1 minute from connecting to
mains voltage. After this duration the detector can be programmed
either by P-IR remote control or by manipulating potentiometers. No
manipulations will become effective during start-up.
Remove socket from device:
Gently press clips 1+2 to
remove device.

Connecting electrical loads
High inrush currents will considerably shorten the lifetime of the
detector’s in-built relay. Please verify the technical data provided by the
lamp or luminaires manufacturer concerning inrush currents,
specifically with compact fluorescent, fluorescent lamps, electronic
ballast, etc. in order not to overload the internal relay. We recommend
connecting a maximum of three to four motion detectors in parallel. If
the number of switching cycles is above average or in the event of in-
creased (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. Keep cables lengths to a minimum
in order to prevent capacitive standby current.
Wiring diagrams
Standard installation. Optional push button connection (R) for manual
switching. Removing bridge L/D1 makes contact D1/D2 potential free.
Several devices in parallel in short impulse mode (max. 3 to 4 devices)
connected to a staircase switch or relay.

Several detectors connected in parallel, with additional wall switch to
enable permanent lighting.
Installation of an RC element, (between neutral conductor (N) and
switched phase L‘) in case of interferences by fluorescent lamps
(switch-off sparks) or by several detectors connected in parallel
(caused by capacitive current in the wires). Varistor (between neutral
conductor (N) und phase (L)) to reduce mains voltage peaks.

Controls
SENS (sensitivity/range)
Detection range adjustment max = approx. 16 m frontal, 16 m lateral.
Should the detector be too sensitive (triggering without movement in
the detection range), the sensitivity/range can be reduced.
TIME
The timer determines for how long the lights will remain on following the
last movement in the detection area. Choices are between short
impulse (approx. 1 sec, approx. 20 sec. / 60 sec. break, selectable by
remote control only) and time delay (approx. 10 s to max. 20 min.). The
in-built Eco function will automatically reduce delay time to 3 minutes
even if set higher if a movement is detected for less than 30 seconds.
LUX(twilight sensor)
The twilight sensor regulates the operating threshold (light value) of the
detector determining when the device should be activated. Minimum
value 5 lux (moon symbol): The detector will turn on the light at night.
Maximum value 2000 lux (sun symbol): The detector will turn on the
light during daytime as well.
Recommendation: approx. 5 lux in staircases, 50 lux outdoors

LED, flashing once upon detection, three times upon adjusting TIME
or LUX values, or receiving a command from the remote control.
Attention! LUX or TIME value adjustments during a stable working
condition will be stored and become valid immediately. Any values
adjusted by remote control will be overridden. Either manual values or
values by remote control may be active, mixing is not possible
Standard/pet tolerance mode will be kept during adjustments. Device
control allows for pet tolerance stage 1 only (stage 2 with remote only).

Detection range
The 300°/240°/120° detection range with 360° creep zone protection as well as
the tight detection area allow for an optimal function. The range depends on the
installation height and walking direction (high sensitivity when cutting or changing
a switching segment).
Since the detector reacts to temperature differences between heat source and
ambient temperature, the response may vary depending on the installation site
(floor heating, hot environment, etc.).

Troubleshooting
error cause/amendment
light does not turn on: - twilight adjustment value too low
- connected lamp defective
- check mains power / fuses
detector triggers without reason- check detection area for potential
reason / light never turns off: causes of false triggering: draught,
heating, etc. may all provoke faulty
switching!
- detector is too sensitive, reduce the
detec-tion range sensitivity (by re-
mote control or manually) or cover
disturbing segments on the lens by
adhesive tape.
- check distances to lamps (heat re-
flection or direct light influence)
- connect RC element in parallel to
transformers, relais, electric ballast
light flashes periodically / - non-compensated fluorescent lamps
detector doesn’t reach need an RC element or compensa-

* creep zone protection or pet tolerance function selectable. Tilting
the detector head (long range zone pointing towards the ground)
impairs pet tolerance function.
Electronic Control
Induction in long installation wires (if several detectors connected in parallel)
may generate a considerable capacitive current on the switched phase. For
electric loads using only a small control current, such as staircase timer
switches, this may lead to permanent switching or general malfunctions. In
order to minimise the capacitive current, an RC element may be connected in
parallel to the load. Alternatively, a contactor, which is more tolerant to
capacitive currents, may be installed before the load. We recommend a
maximum of four detectors connected in parallel.
Do not dispose of electrical appliances in your waste bin, use
the collecting point of your municipality, or return the old device
to your dealer.
