Intended Use
With the outdoor radio motion detector an appropriate wireless
remote-control switch of the RSL system (or a load attached to it) can
be switched on or off wirelessly.
The motion detector responds to temperature changes within the
detection range, e.g. if a person, an animal or a car enters the
detection area.
Because of this, the motion detector is used for monitoring of
entrances, stairs etc.

Preparations for Installation
Please refer to the “Safety Information” section!
• Keep a minimum distance of at least 1 m to lights, radiators and
other heat sources in order to avoid functional problems or faulty
switching.
• Only install the motion detector on a stable surface.
• The motion detector can be mounted on a wall in indoor and outdoor
areas. Pay attention to the correct mounting position. The side that
is shaped like a cover must always face upwards, otherwise water
might enter the product.
Function of the motion detector
The motion detector responds to temperature changes within the
detection range, e.g. if a person, an animal or a car with a different
temperature to the detection area enters the detection area.
To ensure optimal motion detection, the motion detector must be
placed so that the object to be detected does not approach the motion
detector directly but passes from left to right or vice versa. Mind this,
when installing the product.
The transmission range for the detection of a motion is determined
by several factors:
• Mounting height of the motion detector
• Temperature difference between the moving object and the
background (environment)
• Size of the object
• Distance of the object from the motion detector
• Direction and speed of the movement
• Ambient temperature
Installation
The wall bracket can be fastened to the wall using 2 screws. Use,
depending on the mounting location, appropriate screws and if
necessary dowels.
Pay attention when drilling and tightening the screws that no cable or
pipes are damaged.
The motion detector is slided from above onto the wall bracket. By
means of the wall bracket’s exible head the motion detector can be
aligned to the required detection range.
Getting Started
• Open the motion detector by unscrewing the four screws on the
back of the device.
• When the battery compartment is at the top, you will nd the sliding
switch for the channel selection on the left. Thereby please note that
you move the sliding switch to the “LEARNING” position.
The other three switch positions “IV-1”, “IV-2” and “IV-3”
are intended for an other radio switching system by the
manufacturer and must not be used for the RSL system.
• With the lower sliding switch you can adjust how long the load shall
be switched on when the motion detector is triggered.
You can set a time period of 5 minutes, 1 minute, 15 seconds and
6 seconds.
Example: You have mounted the motion detector at the
entrance area of a house (time is set to 15 seconds) and
then programmed a radio-controlled socket in the RSL
system.
If the motion detector detects a temperature change within
the detection area (e.g. a person enters the entrance
area), the radio-controlled socket and a connected load
will be turned on for 15 seconds.
If the motion detector detects a new temperature change
within these 15 seconds, the time period starts again.
• With the right sliding switch “H....L” you can set four levels and thus
the brightness at which the motion detector will be activated.
Move the switch in direction “H”: Motion detector will also be
activated during the day
Move the switch in direction “L”: The motion detector is only active
at night
• Insert two AAA/micro batteries, with correct polarity (observe
positive/+ and negative/-), into the battery compartment.
In general, it is possible to operate the product with
rechargeable batteries. However, due to the lower voltage
(batteries = 1.5 V, rechargeable batteries = 1.2 V) and the
lower capacity, the operating period is reduced resulting
in frequent replacement of the rechargeable batteries.
Furthermore, rechargeable batteries are less efcient at
lower outdoor temperatures.
Therefore, we recommend that you use high-quality
alkaline batteries in order to allow for long-lasting and
reliable operation.
• Before closing and retightening the case of the motion detector, one
(or several) radio receivers of the RSL system must be programmed
to the motion detector. Observe the following steps.
• After completion of the programming process the motion detector
must be closed again. Place the housing’s rear side (only one
orientation is correct) and rmly screw the 4 screws.
Afterwards, the motion detector must be attached from above to the
wall bracket and aligned to the required detection area.
Operation
a) Programming a radio receiver of the RSL system
A maximum of 10 radio receivers in the RSL radio system can be
programmed to the outdoor radio detector.
• Shift the radio receiver (e.g. a wireless incoporated switch, a
radio-controlled socket or the like) to programming mode. Please
refer to the operating manual of the radio receiver (usually press the
button on the wireless receiver for more than 3 seconds, until a LED
begins to ash on the radio receiver).
• Press the “Learning” button on the outdoor radio motion detector
(at least 3 seconds) until the LED in the radio receiver stops blinking
and instead, lights permanently. The load connected to the radio
receiver is switched on.
b) Deleting a programmed receiver
• Shift the radio receiver (e.g. a wireless incorporated switch, a
radio-controlled socket, etc.) to the programming mode. Please
refer to the operating manual of the radio receiver (usually press the
button on the wireless receiver for more than 3 seconds, until a LED
begins to ash on the radio receiver).
• Press the “Learning” button on the outdoor radio detector (at least
3 seconds), until the LED on the radio receiver stops blinking and
instead, goes out. The load connected to the radio receiver is
switched off.
Function test
• If it has not been done, you must rst programme a radio receiver
(e.g. a wireless incorporated switch or a radio-controlled socket) in
the RSL system of the outdoor radio motion detector.
• Make sure that the radio receiver is ready-to-operate.
• Pass through the detection area of the outdoor radio motion
detector. If you have moved the sliding switch “H....L” in direction
“L”, a function test is only possible at dusk or at night.
• The radio receiver programmed to the outdoor radio motion
detector, now must be activated for the preset time.
Information about the range
The transmitter in the outdoor radio motion detector has a range of
up to 30 m.
However, this range is the so-called “free-eld range”
(range with line of direct sight between the transmitter
and receiver and without interference).
In practical operation, however, there are walls, the
ceilings of rooms etc. between the transmitter and the
receiver which reduce the range correspondingly.
Due to the different inuences on the radio transmission,
no specic range can be guaranteed. However,
trouble-free operation is usually possible in a detached house.
The range can sometimes be limited considerably by:
• Walls, reinforced concrete ceilings
• Coated/metal vapour deposition coated insulating glass
• Proximity to metal & conducting objects (e.g. radiators)
• Proximity to human bodies
• Broadband interferences, e.g. in residential areas
(DECT telephones, mobile phones, radio-controlled headphones,
radio-controlled speakers, radio-controlled weather stations, baby
monitors etc.)
• Proximity to electric motors, transformers, power-supply units,
computers
• The proximity to improperly shielded or uncovered operating
computers or other electric appliances
Care and Cleaning
Apart from the occasional battery change the product is
maintenance-free for you. Repair or maintenance work must be
carried out by a specialist.
Clean the product with a soft, clean, dry cloth.
Never use aggressive cleaning agents or chemical solutions because
these might damage the surface of the casing or impair the operation.
