Avoid nuisance / false t riggering by directing s ensor
away from:
• Trees and shrubs
• Reective su rfaces such as smooth white w alls
• Swimming pools
• Heat sources such as b oiler ues
The PIR sensor sc anning specications
(approximately 12 metres at 180°) may v ary slightly
depending on the mounting height and location.
The detecti on range of the unit may also alter w ith
temperature cha nge. Before selectin g a place to
install your PIR o odlight you should note that
movement across the s can area is more eective
than movement dire ctly towards or away from the
sensor. (Refer g.2).
If movement is made w alking directly towards o r
away from the senso r and not across the sensor
the apparent dete ction range will be subs tantially
reduced (refer g . 3).

INTRODUCTION:
The oodlight i ncorporates a PIR (Passive Infra R ed)
sensing device wh ich continuously scans a prese t
operating zon e and immediately switches th e light
on when it detec ts movement in that area.
This means that whe never movement is detecte d
within the range o f the sensor the light will switch
on automaticall y to illuminate the area you have
selected to l ight. While there is movement wi thin
range of the unit th e light will remain on.
