With POWER ON and installed by a licenced electrician:
1. Rotate “
TIME
” dial anti-clockwise to minimum
2. Rotate “
SENS
” dial clockwise to maximum
3. Rotate “
LUX
” dial clockwise to daylight(SUN)
4. Move around (walk past or wave hands and arms) and the sensor should turn on the lamps if you are close enough
5. You can adjust the sensor head direction and lamp directions until you achieve the desired setup
6. Once tested and satisfied the time dial can be turned anti-clockwise to the desired time duration
7. For “LUX” setup, adjust the “LUX” dial anti-clockwise to minimum (moon), and wait until light conditions outside
are at the level you wish the sensor to operate. (For instance dust)
8. Adjust the “LUX” dial clockwise until the lamps turn on
9. Adjust “TIME” to desired duration
ADJUSTING THE
TIME
DURATION
The switched ON time after activation can be adjusted from 5 seconds to 6 minutes. Rotate the TIME knob clockwise to reduce the time.
Note:
once the light has been triggered by the PIR sensor, any subsequent detection will start the timed period from the beginning.
ADJUSTING THE
LUX
CONTROL LEVEL
The Lux control module has a built-in sensing device (photocell) that detects daylight and darkness.
The (sun) position denotes that the spotlight will work at day and night, and the (moon) position will only work at night. You can set the unit to operate at the
desired level by adjusting the LUX knob from light (sun) to dark (moon).
1. Turn the Lux control knob to light (sun) position, turn the wall switch on and wait half a minute for the control circuit to stabilize. At this stage ensure that the
TIME control knob is set at minimum. The spotlights will now switch on and will remain switched on for about 30 seconds.
2. Direct the sensor toward the desired area to be scanned by adjusting the elbow joint and the swivel joint on the sensor arm.
Important:
loosen all lock nuts and
screws on sensor and lamp holders before making any adjustments.
3. Have another person move across the centre of the area to be scanned and slowly adjust the angle of the sensor arm until the unit senses the presence of the
moving person, causing the spotlights to switch on.
4. Adjust time control to required setting.
5. To set the light level at which the spotlights will automatically switch “on” at night, turn the LUX control knob from daylight (sun) to night (moon). If the spotlights
are required to switch on earlier, e.g. Dusk, wait for the desired light level, then slowly turn the LUX control knob towards daylight (sun) while someone walks
across the centre of the area to be detected. When the spotlight switches on, release the LUX control knob. You may need to make further adjustments to achieve
your ideal light level setting.
1. Detection beam angle: 180°.
2. Detection range: Max. 10 metres at 24 scan.
3. Duration Time adjustment: 5 seconds to 6 minutes.
4. Detection circuitry: Passive Infra Red (PIR).
