1. Selecting A Location
How large an area will sensor detect?
When mounted at the recommended height of 2 to 3 metres, the detection pattern extends out about 6 to
10 metres and is 120°wide. To reduce coverage, aim the detector toward the ground.
Do Not Locate:
- On pole or tree that sways in wind.
Movement triggers sensor.
- Where movement is directly toward sensor.
To Avoid Nuisance Triggering
Your motion sensor may be activated by large animals, lights, reflective surfaces, heat sources or
movement of objects.
The following guidelines will help you avoid nuisance triggering.
- Do not aim the sensor toward lights of any kind.
- If installing the sensor in tandem with a light(s), mount the sensor module below the light(s).
- Avoid mounting the sensor near heat sources, such as heating vents, air conditioners, dryer vents or
lights.
- Avoid aiming the sensor toward objects which may move in the wind, such as bushes or open air
hanging ornaments.
- Avoid directing the sensor toward areas or objects whose surfaces are highly reflective or are subject
to rapid temperature change, eg. pools.
Although the sensor is weather-resistant, locate it under cover so that driving rain or snow will not hit the
lens of sensor.

Load eg DC Light
Please Note: This sensor can work from
either 12 Volts DC or 12 Volts AC. Hence the
power (red) and load (blue) internal wires are
not marked for polarity.
2. Installing Your Motion Sensor
Caution: turn off all power by removing power fuse or turning off circuit breaker.
- Read entire instruction manual before proceeding.
-
All wiring should comply with local electrical codes and may require a qualified electrician.
- The total lighting load connected to the Sensor must not exceed 10A load. Do not use to control motors
or pumps.
- If you are replacing an existing outdoor light, turn off the power, disconnect and remove the old fixture.
Install Procedure
1. Fasten the box base rigidly to the selected mounting surface (Wall or Ceiling) with the cable entry hole
facing downward. (see FIG A)
2. Take Light & Power Cable through rubber grommet, thenconnect wires as per wiring diagram.
(see FIG C)
3. Knock out either of the holes for fitting the sensor onto the base (depending on whether it will be wall
mounted or ceiling mounted). (FIG D).
4. Fit terminal block onto pins and install the sensor, securing it onto the connection box with the plastic
washer and metal nut provided.
5. Re-check if the wire connection is correct.
6. Cover base with sensor cover, then fix with 2 screws.
