MOUNTING ADVICES
Mountiung hight
The mounting height has a direct influence on the range of the motion detector. The optimum mounting height is 8.9 ft. (2,7 m). All other
dimensions will change the range.
Fixed mounting
The motion detector must be mounted on a solid surface, as any movement of the detector will result in false alarms.
Distance to switched luminaires
In order to avoid unintentional switching on of the luminaire by the motion detector, the luminaire should not be mounted in the detection area of
the motion detector. Also avoid mounting the motion detector above a luminaire. The heat radiation of the luminaire can influence the function of
the motion detector and possibly lead to a false triggering of the detector.
Mounting sideways to the walking direction
For optimum motion detection, the detector must be mounted to the side of the detection area so that the zones are cut as vertically as possible.
Mounting locations where the objects to be detected move directly onto the motion detector result in a significant reduction of the range.
Distance to interference sources
To avoid false alarms, sources of interference such as radiators, lamps, air outlets from air conditioning systems, etc. should be outside the
detection range. Direct sunlight should also be avoided.
Feedback on detected movement
Motion detection by the sensor is signalled by the integrated signal LED (flashing for approx. 2 seconds). Note: The signalling LED is independent
of the set follow-up time of the relay output. During initialisation of the device (voltage reset), the signalling LED and the relay output are switched
on for approx. 45 seconds.
