Wires should be
stripped 13-14.5mm
for best fit with the
push-fit terminal block.

The PIR sensor scanning specifications
(approximately 8 metres at 120°) 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 lantern 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 below).
If movement is made walking directly towards or
away from the sensor and not across the apparent
detection range will be substantially reduced (refer
to Fig. 3 below).
INSTALLATION:
01) Undo the screws at the top and bottom of the
fitting and lift off the front.
02) Undo the screw in the plastic cover at the bottom
of the fitting and remove the terminal.
03) Using the back of the fitting as a template, mark
the location of the fixing holes.
04) Pierce the rubber grommet in the back of the
fitting. Make the hole as small as possible so that
a good watertight seal is maintained when the
cable has been threaded through.
05) Thread the cable through the grommet.
06) Secure the fitting to the wall using fixings
(supplied). If the fixings supplied with your fitting
are not appropriate to your installation, select
suitable alternatives.
07) Make the connections to the terminal block
according to the colour code.
08) Replace the cover and tighten the screw.
09) Replace the front of the fitting and tighten the
screws.
10) Restore the power and switch on.
INTRODUCTION:
The half lantern incorporates a PIR (passive Infrared)
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.
READ THIS FIRST:
Check the pack and make sure you have all of the
parts listed on the front of this booklet. If not,
contact the outlet where you bought this product.
This product must be installed by a competent
person in accordance with the current building
and IEE wiring regulations.
As the buyer, installer and/or user of this product it
is your own responsibility to ensure that this fitting
is fit for the purpose for which you have intended
it. Eterna lighting cannot accept any liability for
loss, damage or premature failure resulting from
inappropriate use.
This product is designed and constructed according
to the principles of the appropriate British Standard
and is intended for normal domestic service. Using
this fitting in any other environments may result in a
shortened working life.
Switch off the mains before commencing installation
and remove the appropriate circuit fuse or lock off
MCB.
This unit is suitable for outdoor use.
This product is designed for permanent connection
to fixed wiring: this must be a suitable circuit
(protected with the appropriate MCB or fuse).
Before making fixing hole(s), check that there are no
obstructions hidden beneath the mounting surface
such as pipes or cables.
Make sure that the fixings are strong enough to
support the considerable weight of the fitting and
hold it rigidly.
When making connections ensure that the terminals
are tightened securely and that no strands of wire
protrude. Check that the terminals are tightened
onto the bared conductors and not onto any
insulation.
This product is not intended to be used by children
and persons with sensory, physical and/or mental
impairments that would prevent them from using it
safely.
You are advised at every stage of your installation to
double-check any electrical connections you have
made. After you have completed your installation
there are electrical tests that should be carried out,
these tests are specified in the current IEE wiring and
building regulations.
This product is double insulated.
DO NOT CONNECT
ANY PART TO EARTH.
CLEANING:
To avoid dust build-up and ensure proper
functioning of the half lantern light, please wipe the
sensor lens lightly with a damp cloth every 3 months.
Disconnect the power and clean the exterior only of
this fitting with a moist (not wet) cloth.
Do not use any chemical or abrasive cleaners.
WHERE TO FIT YOUR PIR HALF LANTERN:
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 half lantern 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 the 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.
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
