INTRODUCTION

 

 
The use of occupancy detectors in commercial and industrial applications can 
significantly reduce energy usage lessening both energy costs and helping the 
environment. 
 
The PMCS6 360 degrees MICROSENSITIVE surface mount OCCUPANCY 
DETECTOR uses passive infrared sensors (PIR) which react to changes in 
temperature emitted by the slight motion of persons or objects passing through its 
detection area. The PIR sensor automatically operates the connected load when 
an area is occupied. After a preset time on non-activation (when an area is 
vacated) the load will be switched off. In addition the built in photocell takes 
natural light (daylight) into account when determining its activation.   
 

Note : Read this entire manual before you start to install the system. 

 

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

 

z

  Do not install where it may be possible for water to access the fitting.

 

z

  Be sure to switch off power source before installing. 

z

  Make sure that the power wiring comes from circuit with an external miniature 

circuit breaker not higher than 10A for the short circuit protection or a suitable 
fuse. 

 

IMPORTANT 

Installation must be performed by a skilled/competent person who is familiar with 
the appropriate standards and technical requirements of the appliance and its 
proper installation. 
 
Before proceeding with the installation, TURN OFF THE POWER TO THE 
LIGHTING CIRCUIT AT THE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE BOX TO AVOID 
ELECTRICAL SHOCK.

 

 

CHOOSING A MOUNTING LOCATION

 

z

  Avoid aiming the motion sensor at heating vents, air conditioners or objects 

which may change temperature rapidly. 

z

  Do not allow sunlight to fall directly on the front of unit. 

z

  The motion sensor is more sensitive to objects moving across its field of view.   

It is less sensitive to an object moving directly towards the sensor head.
