As of 1 January 2005, changes to the Building Regulations affect domestic electrical installations in

England and Wales. You don't need to be a qualified electrician to make changes to your home's electrical

system, but the work must be done in accordance with the Regulations.

Where you employ an electrician who is a member of a competent person self-certification scheme, they

will be able to certify the work complies with the Regulations.

If you decide to carry out the work yourself we recommend that you make yourself aware of the

SECTION ONE

GENERAL INFORMATION

The unit utilises passive infrared technology to detect heat radiation of moving human bodies.
This transmitter must be used in conjunction with suitable receivers in the IQ Wirefree range.
Upon detection, the transmitter will send a signal to its intended receiver (bought separately) and
the receiver will react as programmed. An integral daylight sensor ensures night-only operation of
the floodlight.

PLEASE NOTE:- PLEASE SEE THE SEPERATE INSTRUCTION MANUALS FOR THE
RECEIVER PRODUCTS TO UNDERSTAND HOW TO PROGRAM AND ADJUST THAT
SPECIFIC RECEIVER.
THIS MANUAL COVERS THE INSTALLATION OF THISSPECIFIC PIR TRANSMITTER ONLY
PARTS INCLUDED

- Luminaire c/w PIR Sensor unit.

- Instruction manual. Please keep safe for future reference.

- Accessory Pack.

- Tungsten halogen bulb

TOOLS & PARTS NEEDED

- Electric/hand-held drill & bits.

- Terminal or Electricians screwdriver

- Large slotted/philips screwdriver

- Wire cutters
The Floodlight transmitter is for outdoor use only. Unit must be mounted on a non-flammable
surface as a fixed luminaire, and is not suitable for portable use.
The unit can get very hot during use. Ensure the unit has cooled before handling.
Ensure adequate ventilation space is allowed between the unit and any object above, in front or
to either side of the unit. Suggested space is 0.5m above, 0.3m to either side & 1.0m in front.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified tradesperson or electrician.

SECTION TWO

FLOODLIGHT TRANSMITTER:-SELECTING THE LOCATION

For optimum performance, mount at 2.5m (8ft) high. The sensor can be pointed in any direction
as long as it is within 100m of the receivers it is to be used with. The sensor can detect motion
up to 12m within a 180 degree radius.

Avoid areas where pets or traffic may trigger the sensor. Avoid mounting where the
Sensor aims at objects that change temperature rapidly, such as central heating vents, air
conditioners or waving branches. Avoid reflective surfaces like conservatories or pools of
water.
Avoid any metal obstructions (support beams, chain link fences etc) that could block the
path of radio signal transmission between Sensor and Receiver

The sensor moves up or down, left or right to change the coverage area.
Keep in mind the sensor is most sensitive to movement across its field of vision.
The motion detector has a number of detection zones, at various vertical and horizontal angles
as shown (see diagram A). Amoving human body needs to cross/enter one of these zones to
activate the sensor. The best all-round coverage is achieved with the unit mounted at the
optimum height of 2.5m. Careful positioning of the sensor will be required to ensure optimum
performance. See diagram Adetailing detection range and direction.
The sensor is more sensitive to movement ACROSS its field of vision than to movement directly
TOWARDS (see diagram B). Therefore position the unit so that the sensor looks ACROSS the
likely approach path.
Avoid positioning the sensor where there are any sources of heat in the detection area (extractor
fans, tumble dryer exhausts etc.).

SECTION THREE

FLOODLIGHT TRANSMITTER:- INSTALLATION

After choosing a suitable location (see previous section) install the unit as follows:
The unit is suitable for connection to a 240V 50Hz electricity supply. It is suggested that

3-core round flexible cable of 1mm² gauge is used. An internal switch should be installed to
switch the power to the unit ON & OFF. This allows the sensor to be easily switched off when not
required or for maintenance purposes.

Unfasten the screw on the top of the floodlight. Install the halogen bulb, making sure not to touch
the bulb with bare hands. It is suggested that the bulb is handled using a dry cloth.
Ensure the bulb is correctly fitted in the lampholder before use.
Re-attach the floodlight front cover, do not overtighten the fixing screw.

This unit uses an integral wall fixing plate, detach the wall fixing plate by unscrewing the fixing
screw on underside of the wall plate (diagram E).

The floodlight is located onto the wall plate by a lug which is inserted into the rectangular recess
in the top of the wallplate. To remove, slide out the floodlight from the bottom edge (1) and lift
upwards (2), the lug will lift out of the recess and seperate from the wall plate. See diagram F

Mark the position of the fixing holes. Ensure wall plate is correctly positioned. (diagram G). Note
“TOP” engraving on inside of wall plate.

Drill the holes. Insert wallplugs into the holes.

PIERCE & PASS THE CABLE THROUGH THE GROMMET BEFORE SECURING WALL
PLATE TO WALL.

It is recommended that the grommet is pierced with a screwdriver to ensure a better seal.
Fix the wall plate to the wall (diagram G)
This unit is supplied with a hanging attachment (tether) to aid installation.
If it is not required, simply remove from the unit and discard.
Ensure the tether is securely fixed into the slot before releasing the weight of the unit.
The unit can now be suspended below the wall bracket. (Fig H)

*** IMPORTANT ***

Switch off the electricity at the fuse box by removing the relevant fuse or switching off

the circuit breaker before proceeding with the installation.

CONNECTION

Connect the cable to the terminal block on the unit as follows (see connection diagram):

NEUTRAL (Blue) N
EARTH (Green/Yellow)

LIVE (Brown) L
Ensure that the connections are secure.
Fit the terminal block to the posts on the wall plate

Re-fit the floodlight to the wall plate by locating the lug onto into the recess on the top of the wall
bracket, carefully rotate the floodlight so it fits over the wall plate (reverse diagram F)
Fully tighten the fixing screw (fig E).
