Int roduction
The PDSM1500.1 utilises passive infra red technology to
detect heat radiation of moving human bodies.Upon
detection, the
lighting load will illuminate for
a use r-determined time period. An integral daylight
sensor ensu res all day or night-only operation.
Important Information: Light Pollution and
Considerate Lighting
Please be aware of the annoyance over-lighting an area
can cause to your immediate neighbours. Light
pollution caused by incor rectly installing a unit or
over-lighting an area can be limited by carefully
considering the location and position of your unit
before installation. The light spr ead on all halogen
oodlights can be reduced by angling the oodlight
downwa rds on the mounting bracket. This will also
concentrate the light on your property and limit the
potential inconvenience of the light shining into your
neighbours windows etc.
Please see Selecting a Location for information on
choosing the optimum location for any security light
controlled by this unit.
