1 Description
The ESYLUX wall-mounted motion detector is a passive infrared presence detector
which responds to moving heat sources, such as people walking.
The motion detector is designed for areas with low levels of natural light, such as
hallways, cellars, staircases, changing rooms, toilets, garages etc.
Parameters can be configured using the ESYLUX Mobil-PDi/MDi and Mobil-PDi/MDiuniversal remote controls.
Note: Use this product only as intended (as described in the user instructions).
The device must not be changed, modified or painted – doing so will void any warranty
claims. You must check the device for damage immediately after unpacking it. If there
is any damage, you should not install the device under any circumstances.
If you suspect that safe operation of the device cannot be guaranteed, you should turn
the device off immediately and make sure that it cannot be operated unintentionally.
2 Safety instructions
• Work on the 230-V power system must be carried out by authorised personnel only,
with due regard to the applicable installation regulations / standards
• Switch off the power supply before installing the system
• On the input side, the device is to be protected against short circuits with a 10-A circuit
breaker
• Protection type IP 40 for interior use

3 Operation / functionality
• The ESYLUX wall-mounted motion detector, which has a 180° field of detection,
is only suitable for wall mounting
• The range is up to 16 m in diameter at a recommended installation height
of 1.10 - 2.20 m
• The motion detector has one channel (C1), which is used for presence-dependent
lighting control
• The setting options can vary depending on the remote control used; please see
“Configuring parameters via remote control”
3.1 Conditions in which the lighting is switched on
The lighting is switched on if the target brightness value is below the preset lux
value and movement is detected in the field of detection. Further movement is
acknowledged by the sensor with two short flashes of the red LED (the LED can be
switched off; see “Configuring parameters via remote control”). Once the lighting has
been switched on, the sensor deactivates light measurement for this period.
3.2 Conditions in which the lighting is switched off
The lighting is switched off if no movement is detected in the field of detection and
the preset switch-off delay time has elapsed.

3.3 Switching delay – not in pulse mode
When persons are present, in order to avoid sudden changes in brightness caused by
undesired switching on / off of the lighting, the detector will only be triggered after a
time delay.
Example: a passing cloud could potentially cause unnecessary switching.
Time delay from light to dark: 30 sec. = red LED lights up during this period.
Time delay from dark to light: 5 min. = red LED flashes slowly during this period
4 Installation / connection
Note: Switch off the power supply before installing the system.
• The detector is designed to be installed in European flush-mounted boxes
• Specifications regarding the range of the detector relate to an ambient temperature
of approx. 20 °C
• Movement crossways to the detector is optimal for triggering the detector; head-on
approaches to the detector are more difficult to detect and therefore the range of
the detector is significantly reduced

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

• The detector should be positioned depending on the available space and usage
requirements
• Make sure that the detector has a clear line of sight, as infrared beams cannot
penetrate solid objects
• Connect the detector in accordance with the circuit diagram

4.1 Masking the field of detection
Part of the field of detection can be specifically masked off using the lens mask to
avoid false alarms being caused by e.g. pets.
