Timeguard HF1 User Manual

High Frequency

Sensor

Model: HF1

Installation & Operating Instructions

1. Specifications:

1. Power: AC 220 ~ 240V 50MHz.

2. Sensor Technology: 5.8GHz High Frequency.

3. Switching capacity: 1000W Incandescent or Halogen / 500VA
Fluorescent or Low Energy.

4. Angle of coverage: 360° with 160° angle of aperture.

5. Lux setting: 1 ~ 2000 Lux.

6. Time setting: 3 sec to 30 min.

7. Manual override: Switchable (4 Hours).

8. Warm up: 60 sec.

9. Indoor use only.

2. Adjustments:

1. TIME: The detector has an adjustable TIME ON control from 3 sec.
to 30 min. Move the time indicator fully anti-clockwise for the shortest
time (approx 3 sec). Move the time indicator fully clockwise for the

1

longest time (approx 30 min). The timer starts working after the last
detected movement. See Fig. A.

2. RANGE: The sensor has a detection range which is adjustable
from 0.5m to 6m. Move the range indicator fully anti-clockwise for the
minimum setting (0.5m). Move the range indicator fully clockwise for
the maximum setting (6m). See Fig. B.

3. LUX (light level): It can be set to any level between 1 – 2000 Lux.
Move the lux indicator fully anti-clockwise for night time operation
(approx 1-8 Lux). Move the lux indicator fully clockwise for daylight
operation (approx 2000 Lux). See Fig. C.

3. Detection Range:

L’ N L N

The integrated HF sensor emits high-frequency electromagnetic waves
(5.8GHz) and receives their echo, any change in echo is perceived by
the sensor and will indicate the presence of a person(s) or animal(s).
A microprocessor triggers almost without any delay and will activate the
connected lights or applications. Detection is able to pass through glass,
doors and around partitions with 360 degree coverage. See Fig. D, E.

4. Safety Instructions:

1) Disconnect the power supply before any installation.

2) During the installation, the power cable must be voltage-free when
connected. Therefore we recommend you switch off the power and
check there is no voltage with a voltage tester – before you start.

3) Please note that the sensor must be protected by a 5A circuit breaker.

4) The mains cable needs to be 0.5~1.5mm².
