1. INTRODUCTION
Motion Sensor
Model ID-318
TM
Thank you for your purchase of a SkylinkHome Lighting Automation,
Motion Sensor, Model ID-318. The Motion Sensor allows you to turn
lights on automatically when movement is detected. A built-in timer can
turn lights off after a predefined time period. This is ideal for energy
saving purposes where the area is not always occupied but lighting is
needed when someone is present. A built-in light sensor can also be
used so the light will not be on if movement is detected when the
monitored area is bright enough.
You can customize several settings on the motion sensor, such as:
-
Timer duration (5 minutes, 30 minutes, 60 minutes)
-
Light sensor enable / disable (CDS light sensor)
-
Light sensor brightness threshold (Hi / Lo)
-

All wireless signal communications within the SkylinkHome lighting
system are based on rolling code technology to ensure highest security
is used.
The following items are included in this package:
-
Motion Sensor
-
Ball Joint and Mounting Accessories
-
9V Alkaline Battery

User's Instructions
Before you can control the lights with the Motion Sensor, you need to
program it to the receiver module. Follow the instructions below to
program the Motion Sensor to the receiver module.
3. CUSTOMIZING THE MOTION SENSOR
There are settings on the motion sensor that you can customize. To
customize these settings, open up the battery compartment door and
there are a few jumper connectors. Refer to the detail explanations below
to customize the motion sensor to suit your needs.

2. PROGRAMMING MOTION SENSOR TO RECEIVER MODULE
In order to activate the receiver module with a Motion Sensor, it must be
programmed to the receiver module.
To program a motion sensor into the receiver module, follow the
instructions below.
1. Undo the screws on the back of the motion sensor and remove the
battery compartment door.
2. Insert a 9V alkaline battery to power up the motion sensor.
3. Put the receiver module that you plan to program into programming
mode. Refer to the User's Instructions of that receiver module. If you
are programming the motion sensor to any one of these receiver
modules, Model PA-318, PR-318, LS-318, WE-318, WR-318, ensure
you program the motion sensor under “Timer Operation” learning
sequence of the receiver module. You cannot program the motion
sensor to these receiver modules under On / Off operating mode.
If you program the motion sensor under Flashing operating mode,
when movement is detected, the light will flash for the predefined
time period. Please choose carefully on which operating mode you
select during programming.
4. Once the receiver module is in programming
mode, you may transmit the programming
signal from the motion sensor by pressing
the “SET” button inside the battery door.
When the “SET” button is pressed, the red
LED on the front of the motion sensor will
flash, indicating a signal is being transmitted
to the receiver module.
5. Once the motion sensor is programmed, the
receiver module will quit from programming
mode. Programming is now completed.
You may follow the same instructions to program the motion sensor to
different receiver modules, so when the motion sensor is activated, all
the receiver modules will be activated.
SET
Button
SEN 1, SEN 2
- This is the sensitivity setting of the motion sensor, where
SEN 1 represents high sensitivity and SEN2 represents low sensitivity.
High sensitivity can monitor further movement, from up to about 11 meters
and less movement is required for activation. Low sensitivity can monitor
movement within a shorter distance and more movement is required.
SET Button
- The SET Button is used for programming the Motion Sensor
to the lighting receiver module.
5 min / 30 min / 60 min
- This connector allows you to select the timer
duration, i.e. how long the light will be on after a motion is detected. You
may set the connector at the 5 min position so the light will be on when a
motion is detected and off 5 minutes later.
You may also remove the connector completely from all 3 settings, i.e. no
jumper connector on 5 / 30 / 60 minute. If you remove all 3 connectors,
the light will be on when motion is detected and it will not be off by the
built-in timer. You must use other device such as a remote control to turn
it off. There are some applications where it is desired, such as motion
sensor installed in a conference room, it should turn on the lighting when
someone walks into the room, but it should remain on until someone
leaves the room and turn off the lighting manually. Please refer to
“Accessories” section of the instructions for selection of different devices.
If you are programming the motion sensor to any one of these receiver
modules, Model PA-318, PR-318, LS-318, WE-318, WR-318, these
receiver modules have their own timer duration setting. However, when
the motion sensor is in used with these receiver modules, the motion
sensor timer setting overrides the timer duration setting on these receiver
modules. Therefore, when movement is detected by the motion sensor,
the light will be on based on the motion sensor timer setting.
CDS OFF (Light Sensor)
- If this connect is placed, the CDS light
sensing function is off, meaning even it is very bright, if movement is
detected by the motion sensor, it will still send a signal to turn on the light.
If the connector is removed, light sensor function is enabled, meaning
the light will only be on if motion is detected when the brightness of the
monitored area is low enough.
CDS DARK (Light Sensing Threshold)
- This connector allows the
users to set the light sensing threshold value.
