The sensor is an active motion detector; it emits a high-frequency electromagnetic wave 5.8GHz and receives its echo. The sensor detects the
change in echo from movement in its detection zone. A microprocessor
then triggers the switch light ON command. Detection is possible through
doors, panels of glasses thin walls.
NOTE: the high-frequency output of this sensor is <1mW; approximately just 1% of the transmission power of a mobile telephone or the
output of a microwave oven.
IMPORTANT
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY PRIOR TO INST ALL ATION AND RETAIN THIS LEAFLET IN A KNOWN
AND SAFE PLACE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
SECTION 1 INSTALLATION & WIRING
2.0 ENSURE THAT THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY IS SWITCHED OFF COMPLETELY BEFORE INSTALLING OR SERVICING THIS
PRODUCT
The sensor works with a main voltage of 120-277VAC 60Hz.
The sensor has a 4-wire electrical interface:
N (neutral / 120-277V AC)
L (phase / 120-277 V AC)
L’ (switched phase / output)
To connect standard ballast with sensor To connect Hytronik sensorDIM ballast with sensor
(ON-OFF function), the wiring should be: the wiring should follow the below schematic:

2.1 This sensor is suitable for indoor use, and is also designed for installation at max. 4 meters in height.
* While sensor use with Hytronik sensorDIM ballast or other dimming ballast, please keep the sensor antenna module from the ballast
and lamp filament by at least 80mm.
SECTION 2 SETTINGS
Detection range:
This determines the effective range of the motion detector and is set by DIP switches at the sensor itself, refer to figure.
Note that reducing the sensitivity will also narrow the detection range.
The following settings are available:
I - Detection range 100%
II – Detection range 75%
III – Detection range 50%
IV – Detection range 25%
V – Detection range 10%
Hold time:
This determines the time the fitting remains at 100% level on motion detection and is set with DIP switches at the sensor
itself, refer to figure. The walk test setting is useful when installing the fitting to establish correct operation and range.
The following settings are available:
I – 30 minutes
II – 20 minutes
III – 6 minutes
IV – 90S
V – 30S
VI – 10S
Daylight sensor:
This setting holds off the 100% light output should there sufficient daylight and is set using DIP switches at the sensor, refer
to figure. The following settings are available:
I – Photocell disabled
II – 50 lux daylight operation
III – 30 lux daylight operation
IV – 10 lux twilight operation
V – 5 lux darkness operation only
*In daylight setting the lamp(s) will always be on with motion detected and operate at 100% light output, even in bright
daylight.
MALFUNCTION CAUSE REMEDY CAUSE REMEDY
The load will not work
The load is always on Continuous movement in the detection zone Check zone setting
SECTION 3 TROUBLE SHOOTING
Incorrect light-control setting selected Adjust setting
Load faulty Replace load
Mains switch OFF Switch ON
The load is on without any identifiable
movement
The load will not work despite movement
The sensor is not mounted for reliably detecting movement Securely mount enclosure
Movement occurred, but not identified by the sensor
(movement behind wall, movement of small object in
immediate lamp vicinity etc.)
Rapid movements are being suppressed to minimize
malfunctioning or the detection radius is too small
