SP816 OUTDOOR MOTION DETECTOR

y

r

The SP816 Outdoor Motion Detector is a Z-Wave PlusTM enabled device and is fully
compatible with any Z-Wave
network to communicate directly with other end devices such as lighting controllers, or to
report directly to a Z-wave controller (usually a gateway).

This motion detector is primarily designed for outdoor lighting control application. It features
a PIR motion detector to detect movement in a protected area and a lux sensor for
determining brightness of its surroundings. It comes with a built in timer to set the duration
for light turn on. The lux level and the timer can be set through knobs on the device itself.

If the PIR detects motion when lux level falls below a preset setting, the device will transmit
a signal to turn on the outdoor lighting (or indirectly through gateway) and t hen later turns it
off when its timer has elapsed.

This device can also be used as a basic motion sensor for indoor security application.

Auto Inclusion

The detector supports Auto Inclusion feature where it will automatically enter Inclusion
mode when first powered up after a factory reset.

1. Use a screwdriver to detach the rear cover.

2. Put a Z-Wave Controller into inclusion mode.

3. Insert 3 AA-size 1.5V batteries to the battery
compartment with the correct polarity. The LED on
the device should turns ON..

4. The Inclusion process should be completed when the LED stops blinking.

5. Do not refit the rear cover yet.
Note: If Auto Inclusion fails, refer to the Troubleshooting section regarding Manual

Inclusion.

Testing

Warm-Up

It will take approximately 1 minute for the detector to warm up after a battery is inserted.
During this period the LED behind the lens will turn on. When the LE D turns off, it implies
warm-up procedure is complete and the detector is ready for detection.
Note:

- This will not affect the Inclusion/Exclusion process.

- After removing batteries, wait for 5 seconds to refit batteries.

Quick Test

1. With the tamper switch not being pressed, the unit will enters Test mode to allow the

user to test the device before it is mounted on the wall.

2. During Test mode, if movement is detected, the LED on the detector will illuminate

implying the unit is working properly.

3. To exit the Test mode, simply press the Tamper switch for more than 10 seconds to

enter Normal mode.

Mounting the Detector

Choosing the location

The recommended location for the detector is outside the house under the eaves or
other shaded areas where it is not directly exposed to sunlight. Though the detector is
waterproof (IP44 rated), avoid direct contact with rain.

- Do not position the detector facing a window or direct sunlight.

- Do not position the detector directly above or facing any source of heat, eg: fires,
radiators, boiler etc.

- Where possible, mount the detector so
that the path of an intruder would cut
across the fan pattern rather than directly
towards the detector.

mount the detector 2m from the floor. At this
height, the detector will detect movement
within its 100 degrees fan-shaped detection
pattern up to 6-12m depending on
adjustment. .

Installation

1. Use the rear cover to mark the two mounting holes.

2. Drill the holes, insert the plastic wall plugs and screw the rear cover to the wall using
the screws supplied.

3. Assemble the detector back to its rear cover using screws as originally supplied.

4. The detector will enter Normal mode after 10 seconds.

Walk Test

The user can perform a walk test to ensure the detector’s detection range falls within the
desired area of coverage. This test also checks if the detector is still within the
communication range of the controller. For this test, the detector needs to be configured to
turn on a connected lighting or other observable action set using the controller.

1. On the detector, turn both knobs Time-Off and Lux to the “T” mark.

2. Walk into the detector’s range and check if the connected lighting turns on and off.

3. If necessary, tilt the head of the detector to achieve desired result.

Operation

When the detector is mounted on the wall, i.e. tamper switch is pressed, for more than 10
seconds, it will enter Normal mode.

- Upon motion being sensed, the detector will turn ON the connected lighting. After the
elapse of preset time-off, the detector will turn OFF the connected lighting (see Time
adjustment knob below).

- In Normal mode, the red indicator LED on the detector will not illuminate when the
detector is triggered in order to conserve battery life, unless the battery is low.

- If the Tamper switch is released, the detector will send a Notification command
(1) Time adjustment

Time-off knob controls how long the connected lighting will stay on after the motion is
detected. It can be set from 5 seconds to 12 minutes.

About 5 seconds About 12 minutes

“T” means 5 seconds, while “+” is 12 minutes. After the expiry of preset time-off, the
detector will send a turn OFF signal.

(2) Lux adjustment
The LUX adjustment sets the brightness level threshold that will activate the motion senso r
in the detector.

For instance, turning the LUX knob clockwise to the MOON position will activate detector’s
motion sensor only night and inactivated during the day. T he adj ustable Lu x ran ge is abo ut
30 - 200 Lux.
To set the lux level:

1. Turn the Time-off knob to “T” for maximum response.

2. Turn the LUX control knob to the edge cl ockwise at the “moon” (dusk) position.

3. Wait until the ambient light level reaches the level of darkness at which you wish the
detector to activate.

4. Slowly rotate the Lux knob while anti-clock wise while keep creating motion during th e
process until the detector sends out a signal to turn on the connected lighting. At this
position the light should become operative at approximately the same level of
darkness each evening

5. Set the Time-off knob back to the desired preset time.

Maintenance

Low Battery: When the battery becomes low, the LED will flash for 1 second when motion is
detected in Normal mode to indicate low battery condition to the user.
When the battery becomes low in Test mode, the LED will flash once every 30 seconds.
