Direction test

The direction test serves to select the most suitable installation site for
the best possible detection area.

Install the presence detector correctly and connect the cable
correctly.
Switch on presence detector.
Switch the time rotary switch (Time) to test and carry out direction 
test.
Diagonally to detection area from outside. 
When the sensor is triggered, the LED and 
consumer switch on for 2 seconds.

If the detector is connected to the mains supply, it needs a warm-up 
phase of approximately 40 seconds (consumer and LED are switched on). 
The detector then moves into normal mode so that a direction test 
can be carried out.

Restriction of detection area

SPHINX 104-360/2 DIMplus has 3 baffles, each with 3 
zones (A,B,C). Each layer is divided into 4 small units (I, II, III, IV) 
where each unit can cover an angle of approximately 30 °. 
The detector is installed at a height of 2.5 m (see figure):

The inner coverage has a Ø of 1 m. The individual
zones of the baffle can be removed using pliers in order to 
adjust to the desired detection area.

Remove zones A+B+C: Detection area has a radius of 
approximately 12 m circular
Remove zones B+C: Detection area is approximately 10 m, 
circular
Remove zone C: Detection area is approximately 4 m, circular
