1. General information:

The unit utilises passive infrared technology to detec t heat radiation of mov ing human bodies.

Upon detec tion, the lamp will illuminate for a user-determined time period.

An integral daylight sensor ensures all day or night only operation.

Parts Included

• Luminaire c /w PIR Sensor unit.

• Instruc tion manual. Please keep safe

for future reference.

•

Accessory pack.

Tools & Parts Needed

• Electric or hand-held drill & bits.

• Terminal or electricians screwdriver.

• Flat and philips screwdriver.

• W ire cutter s.

2. Selecting the location:

Unit is for indoor and outdoor use. 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 o
or to either side of the unit. Suggested space is 0.5m above, 0.3m to either side & 1.0m in front.

The motion detector has a number of detection zones, at various vertical and horizont al angles
as shown (see Fig A).

A moving human body needs to cross/enter one of these zones to ac tivate the sensor. The best
all-round coverage is achieved with the unit mounted at the optimum height of 1.8m.

Careful p ositioning of the sensor will be required to ensure optimum

Avoid positioning the sensor where there are any sources of heat in the detection area (extractor

During extreme weather conditions the motion sensor may exhibit unusual behaviour. This does
not indic ate a fault with the sensor. Once normal weather conditions return, the sensor will
resume normal operation.

3. Installation:

After choosing a suitable location (see previous sec tion) install the unit as follows:

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

switc hing off the circuit breaker before proceeding with the installation.

We recommend this unit be fitted by a qualified electrician. Install in accordance with wiring and
current building regulations. Please read the instructions carefully.

The unit is suitable for connection to a 230 V AC 50Hz electricity supply. It is suggested t

the power to the unit ON & OFF. This allows the sensor to be easily switched off when not required
or for maintenance purposes.

Loosen up the bottom screw (Fig C). Remove wall plate by using a small flat screwdriver (Fig C) by
gently easing the wall plate outwards.

Open the rubber plug, mark position of the fixing holes (Fig D). Drill the holes. Inser t the wall plugs
into the holes.

Pierce the grommet and pass the cable through the grommet. Clamp the cable to the rear of the
unit before securing the unit to the wall. Fit grommet into it s location hole ensuring a good seal.

Fix the unit to the wall (Fig E). Close the rubber plug after tighten the screws (Fig E). Attach the unit

to the wall plate by a sound of click, tighten the bottom screw (Fig F). If using a power screwdriver,
use the lowest torque setting.

Connection

Connec t the cable to the terminal block as follows (see connection diagram):

4. Operating and testing:

Test Mode

Rotate the sensor cover to reveal the adjustment knobs (Fig G).
The unit can be set up in daylight or at night. The adjustment k nobs are factory set. Lux is set
to the 'moon' setting and Time is set to a minimum (fully anti-clockwis e) see Fig H.

Turn the power ON. The lamp will illuminate for approximately 30 seconds.
This indicates the unit is wired correc tly.

3

After approximatel y 30 seconds the light will turn off.

The unit is now in Test Mode.

Walk Test Procedure

The lamp will now illuminate for approximately 5 seconds every time movement is detected.
Wa

lk across the detection area approximately 5 metres from the unit. Each time you are detected
the lamp will illuminate. Now stand still until the lamp extinguishes (this should take approx.
5 seconds)

Start moving again, when you are detected again the lamp will illuminate.

Repeat the above, walking at various angles and distances to the unit. This will help you to
establish the detection pattern.

Setting Up for Automatic Operation

The TIME setting controls how long the unit remains illuminated following activation and after
all motion ceases.
(See Fig H, the Time adjustment knob is indicated by the "Clock" symbol).

The minimum time (anti-clockwise) is approx. 5 seconds, whilst the maximum time (clockwise) is
approx. 10 minutes (Fig H). Set the control to the desired setting between these limits. The
DUSK control determines the level of darkness required for the unit to start operating.
