PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SUGGESTED SOLUTION
Light does not switch ON
when there is movement
in the detection area.
1. No mains voltage.
Check all connections, circuit breakers and switches.
2. Bulb faulty or missing.
Check and replace if required.
3. Nearby lighting is too bright.
Redirect the sensor or relocate the unit.
4. Controls set incorrectly.
Readjust the sensor angle or control knob.
5. Sensor positioned in wrong direction.
Redirect the sensor and/or adjust.
Light switches ON for
no apparent reason
(false trigger).
1. Heat from lamp body activating sensor. Adjust PIR sensor or lamp body to allow a minimum
gap of 40mm between lamp body and sensor head.
2. Heat sources such as air-con, vents,
heater flues, barbecues, other outside
lighting or moving cars are activating
sensor.
Adjust direction of sensor head away from these
sources.
3. Animals/birds e.g. possums or
domestic animals.
Redirecting sensor head may help.
4. Interference from switching off
electric fans or lights on the same circuit
as your sensor.
Should the false triggering become troublesome, consider:
(a) have the other switches checked for arcing faults;
(b) replacing noisy fluorescent tubes and/or starters and
(c) connecting the sensor to a separate circuit. (In most
cases where one or more of the above suggestions have
been carried out, false triggering has been reduced).
5. Reflection from swimming pool or
reflective surfaces.
Redirect sensor.
Light remains on.
1. Continuously false triggered.
Redirecting sensor head may help.
2. Time adjustment is set too long.
Reduce time.
Light switches on during
daylight.
Lux control knob is set to daylight
position.
Turn the Lux control knob to desired light level setting.
When setting Lux controls in
daylight the detection distance
becomes shorter.
Interference by sunlight.
Re-test at night.
Installation:
This movement detector must only be connected to a 230-240Vac 50Hz supply by a qualified
electrician.
Important:
Read all instructions before installation. This instruction manual is to be left at the
installation site.

Installation
The Movement Detector has been designed for a harsh climate, complying with the strict IP66 rating and
is intended to be used in outdoor installations, however the detector can be installed indoors.
The Detector can be installed on the ceiling surface or on the wall. It can be installed onto a HPM
Surface Mounting Block (HPM Cat No 239) or similar with 84mm mounting centre. Some installation sites
may allow direct surface installation of the Movement Detector. The recommended mounting height of the
Detector is 2.4m.
The head should be oriented in such a way that the expected traffic is moving across the field of view of the
Detector and not directly towards it. Refer to Figure 2.
To change the head orientation, loosen the ball joints by unscrewing the nuts, adjust the head position and
re-tighten the ball joints. Refer to Figure 3 to see different mounting options.
