Note: 

 If no key has been pressed, it will return to MODE 1 automatically after 12 

seconds. 

     

  While you are setting the sensor, the function of detecting trigger-ON is set to 

disable to avoid false detection (because hands may obstruct the light to 
Illumination Sensor during setting). The sensor must be placed still for 12 
seconds for the detecting function to be enabled again. If trigger-ON value is 
preset and the sensor is re-powered, it will take 10 seconds before the detecting 
function is enabled. 

 

 The lux trigger-ON and trigger-OFF cannot be set equal; there MUST be at least 

100 LUX differences between them. For example, if now the trigger-OFF lux is 
already set to be 200 LUX, so trigger-ON lux can only be set 

 100 LUX or 

 

300 LUX (values between 100 LUX and 300 LUX cannot be set). 

 
1.3 Lux Trigger-OFF

 

 

Press 

 and select MODE 3 to enter setting of lux trigger-OFF. Icon 

 

flashes and the screen shows the recorded trigger-OFF lux.    If no value is preset, 
the screen will display “ 

- - - 

LUX

”. 

 
To adjust trigger-OFF value, press and hold 

  for 5 seconds until a long beep 

is sounded. The “

- - -

” starts flashing. Use 

 

and 

  button to adjust the lux value, 

and hold 

 or 

  button to scan through the lux reading from 30 to 1000 (the lux 

value can only be adjusted on the basis of 10 LUX per unit; the default value is 300 
LUX). Once the value is selected, press 

  to confirm setting or press 

ESC/

 

to cancel. 
To clear the trigger-OFF record, press both 

 and 

 at the same time.  The 

record is cleared after a long beep is sounded. 

 
If lux of ambient light is greater than preset trigger-OFF value, Illumination Sensor 
will emit RF signal to the nodes of Grouping 2.    The screen of sensor will return to 
MODE 1 and the icon 

  is flashing with backlight illuminates and 4 continuous 

beeps sound for 1 second.    Press any key to stop the beep tone. 
 
A mechanism of 12-second placing still is designed to prevent the sensor being 
triggered rapidly.    Suppose the ambient light is changing rapidly, if trigger-ON value 
is preset and has been triggered, and the ambient light has reached a lux level that 
is higher than preset trigger-OFF value soon after, the sensor will not be triggered 
until 12 seconds later.  Please refer to FIGURE 7 for illustration of how the 
mechanism operates.   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
If no trigger-ON value is preset, to avoid the problem of consecutive triggering, the 
sensor has to be placed still for 2 minutes (restriction) before lux trigger-OFF is 
enabled again.  To clear this restriction, the detected lux value of ambient light 
during this 2 minutes period MUST be lower than the preset trigger-OFF value, 
otherwise the sensor will keep recounting the time before it can be triggered again 
(FIGURE 8).
