General Information & Where To Fit Your Floodlight:

Where To Fit Your Floodlight & Installation:

Avoid nuisance/ false triggering by directing

sensor away from:
• Trees and shrubs

• Reﬂective surfaces such as smooth white walls

• Swimming pools

• Heat sources such as boiler ﬂues
The PIR sensor scanning speciﬁcations

(approximately 12 metres at 180°) may vary

slightly depending on the mounting height and

location.
The detection range of the unit may also alter

with temperature change. Before selecting a

place to install your PIR ﬂoodlight you should

note that movement across the scan area is

more effective than movement directly towards

or away from the sensor. (Refer to ﬁg.2).
If movement is made walking directly towards

or away from the sensor and not across the

sensor the apparent detection range will be

substantially reduced (refer to ﬁg. 3).

INTRODUCTION:

The ﬂoodlight incorporates a PIR (Passive Infra

Red) sensing device which continuously scans a

preset operating zone and immediately switches

the light on when it detects movement in that

area.
This means that whenever movement is

detected within the range of the sensor the light

will switch on automatically to illuminate the

area you have selected to light while there is

movement within range of the unit the light will

remain on.

WHERE TO FIT YOUR PIR FLOODLIGHT:

To achieve best results we suggest you take the

following points into consideration:
Do not mount on a surface that has vibration.
Ideally the PIR ﬂood light should be mounted

1.8 to 2.5 metres (6 to 8ft) above the area to be

scanned (refer to ﬁg.1 below).

To avoid damage to the unit do not aim sensor

towards sun.
Avoid positioning the sensor unit adjacent to a

bright light source which may prevent the unit

from operating when the lux control is set to

operate in dark conditions.
