TESTING AFTER INSTALLATION
To facilitate coverage testing, the factory setting for Time Delay is 12 seconds, and the Light
Level is at Maximum.
If you want to test a sensor for intended detection or operation:
1. Make sure that the time delay is set to 12 seconds and the light level is set to maximum
(clockwise to the sun
icon). The dials are located on the bottom of the sensor.
2. Adjust sensor to the desired position.
3. Ensure that power has been restored to the sensor.
4. Move into the location to be tested; lights should turn on (or switch to high if connected to
a DM-105 or DM-115-WP HID Bi-Level control module). Stand still. In about 12 seconds
the lights should turn off (or switch to low if connected to a DM-105 or DM-115-WP
HID Bi-Level control module). Move or walk and the lights should turn on/high. Repeat
this process to test other locations. Make sensor coverage adjustments as needed (see
Coverage adjustment and Masking, page 2).
Note:
When power is restored to the sensor, the lights will turn on/high for approximately
one minute. (See Security Override, page 9.)
Note:
If the lights do not turn on/high with movement in the area after they have
turned off/low in step 4, the level of daylight may be too high and the sensor’s light level
adjustment is keeping the sensor inactive. Wait until daylight levels have reduced before
testing again.
5. See Dial Adjustments, below, for guidelines to adjust the time delay and light level to the
desired settings for operation.
DIAL ADJUSTMENTS
Time Delay and Light Level control dials are located on the bottom of the
sensor.
1 . Adjust Time Delay:
The time delay is the amount of time that elapses before lights turn
off since the sensor last detected motion. This can be set from
12 seconds to 16 minutes. Typically, the time delay should be set to
1 minute or more.
•
In areas where there is mostly walk through movement, the time
delay amount can be low.
•
In areas where people may stop and remain for periods of time,
the time delay should be set to a higher amount, preferably
16 minutes.
2 . Adjust Light Level:
Turning the light level adjustment dial raises or lowers a light level
detector in the sensor. When the light rises above this set level, the
sensor becomes inactive; this keeps the lights off when there is
enough light present.
We suggest initially setting the light level adjustment to
half way
between
minimum and maximum. If a different setting is desired after installation,
then follow the Making Changes procedures, next page.
