- Where possible, mount the detector so that the path of an intruder would cut across the fan pattern rather than directly towards the detector.
Mount the detector 2m from the floor. At this height, the detector will detect movement within its 100 degrees fan-shaped detection pattern up to 6-12m depending on adjustment.
Walk Test
The user can perform a walk test to ensure the detector’s detection range falls within the desired area of coverage. This test also checks if the detector is still within the communication range of the controller. For this test, the detector needs to be configured to turn on a connected lighting or other observable action set using the controller.
1. On the detector, turn both knobs Time-Off and Lux to the “T” mark.
2. Walk into the detector’s range and check if the connected lighting turns on and off.
3. If necessary, tilt the head of the detector to achieve desired result.
Operation
When the detector is mounted on the wall, i.e. tamper switch is pressed, for more than 10 seconds, it will enter Normal mode.
- Upon motion being sensed, the detector will turn ON the connected lighting. After the elapse of preset time-off, the detector will turn OFF the connected lighting (see Time adjustment knob below).
- In Normal mode, the red indicator LED on the detector will not illuminate when the detector is triggered in order to conserve battery life, unless the battery is low.
- If the Tamper switch is released, the detector will send a Notification command
(1) Time adjustment
Time-off knob controls how long the connected lighting will stay on after the motion is detected. It can be set from 5 seconds to 12 minutes.
(2) Lux adjustment
The LUX adjustment sets the brightness level threshold that will activate the motion sensor in the detector.
For instance, turning the LUX knob clockwise to the MOON position will activate detector’s motion sensor only night and inactivated during the day. The adjustable Lux range is about 30 - 200 Lux.
To set the lux level:
1. Turn the Time-off knob to “T” for maximum response.
2. Turn the LUX control knob to the edge clockwise at the “moon” (dusk) position.
3. Wait until the ambient light level reaches the level of darkness at which you wish the detector to activate.
4. Slowly rotate the Lux knob while anti-clockwise while keep creating motion during the process until the detector sends out a signal to turn on the connected lighting. At this position the light should become operative at approximately the same level of darkness each evening
5. Set the Time-off knob back to the desired preset time.
Maintenance
Low Battery: When the battery becomes low, the LED will flash for 1 second when motion is detected in Normal mode to indicate low battery condition to the user. When the battery becomes low in Test mode, the LED will flash once every 30 seconds.
