BEFORE YOU START
Please read all the instructions prior to installation.
The EcoSpot Select should be wired to its own light switch. Do not interconnect with other lights on
the same switch, or on the same PIR sensor.
To achieve best results, please consider the following points:
• To avoid false triggering, the sensor should be directed away from heat sources such as barbecues,
air con, flue vents etc.
• Do not aim towards reflective surfaces such as smooth white walls, swimming pools, etc.
• Before selecting a place to install your Eco Spot Select, note that movement across the scan area
is more effective than movement directly toward or away from the sensor.
SETTINGS
The length of time the EcoSpot Select remains switched on after activation can be adjusted from
10 seconds (± 5 seconds) to 4 minutes (± 1 minute). Rotating the TIME knob to (+) or (-) will adjust the
duration time accordingly.
Note:
Once the light has been triggered by the PIR sensor any subsequent detection will restart the
timed period.
The sensitivity means the maximum distance which PIR sensor can be triggered by motion. Adjusting the
SENS knob from (+) to (-) will adjust the sensitivity.
The LUX control module has a built-in sensing device (photocell) that detects daylight and darkness.
The (
) position indicates it will work at day and night, and in the (
) position - only at night. Set dial to
operate at the desired level by adjusting the LUX knob.
Setting up the sensor
(refer to Fig. 2)
Turn the LUX control knob to light (
) position, turn the wall switch on and wait 30 seconds for the
control circuit to stabilise. Ensure that the TIME control is set at minimum.
Direct the sensor toward the desired area to be scanned by adjusting the elbow joint and swivel joint on
the sensor arm. Have someone move across the centre of the area to be scanned and slowly adjust the
angle of the sensor arm until the unit senses the movement and triggers as desired. Adjust SENS dial to
alter distance.
Adjust the TIME control to required setting.
If the lights are required to operate from dusk, wait for the desired light level, then slowly turn the LUX
control knob towards daylight while someone walks across the centre of the detection area. When the
lights switch on, release the LUX control knob. Set LUX control to suit your application.
Note:
All PIR sensors are more sensitive in colder or dry weather than warmer weather.
You may need to make further adjustments to achieve your ideal light level setting. To avoid dust
build-up and ensure proper functioning of the EcoSpot Select, wipe the sensor lens lightly with a damp
cloth every 3 months.
Before any aiming adjustments, switch EcoSpot Select off and allow the hot lamp housings to cool.
When adjusting lamp housings, ensure they are not touching or in close proximity (not less than 40mm)
to sensor head, as heat from the lamp housing may impact operation of the PIR sensor.

INSTALLATION
We strongly recommend this light fitting is installed by a registered electrician
• Switch off the power supply before commencing any electrical work.
• Unscrew the fixing cover screws and remove the rear cover.
• Use the rear cover to mark the position of screw holes onto mounting surface.
• Drill the wall to depth of about 4 cm and fit the wall plugs (supplied).
• Care should be taken to avoid drilling or screwing into concealed electrical wiring/plumbing.
• Push the cable through the cable gland. Affix the back of the housing to the mounting surface with
mounting wall screws.
• Connect the power cables to the terminal block securely (refer to Fig. 1). Refit the terminal block and
cable anchorage. Select lamp colour from internal dip switch (refer to Fig. 2).
• Reattach and screw securely the cover to the base. Ensure cables are not pinched in closing the unit.
• Reconnect mains power.
• Test circuit and setup PIR settings (see below).

Selecting lamp colour with power supply connected
may cause irreparable damage. Always disconnect
at mains before making any colour selection.
