LED Porch Light
Instructions
These instructions are for the Déluce Lighting LED Porch Lights :
DLPLLED7BLK, DLPLP, DLPLS,
DLPLLED7WH, DLPP, DLPS
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INFORMATION
•
Installation should be carried out in accordance with the latest edition
of the IEE Wiring Regulations (BS7671) and taking into consideration the
latest Building Regulations. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
•
Before commencing any installation or maintenance work,
ensure electricity is switched off at the mains.
•
Please take note of the maximum rated voltage for your Porch Light.
•
Please take note of the IP (Ingress Protection) rating of your Porch Light
when deciding location.
•
Always allow sufficient slack in the supply cable in order to remove the
Porch Light from its position for any future maintenance.
•
Please take note of the nearest illuminated surface as shown on the label.
GENERAL INSTALLATION - SAFETY
•
Please make sure you are safe when working at height.
•
Employ the latest safety regulations and procedures to ensure the safe
installation of this Porch Light.
•
When positioning your Porch Light out of doors please take note
that outdoor electrical installations should be installed by a qualified
Electrician. Correct circuit protection for all exterior electrical services
should include a residual current device (RCD), also known as an earth
leakage circuit breaker (ELCB). This simple device ensures that the power
is cut off immediately; it detects a leakage of current to earth, indicating
an electrical fault which is potentially threatening to life. Observe these
few simple rules and keep your outdoor electrical installation safe.
INTRODUCTION
This Porch Light incorporates either a Standard (no sensor), Dusk to Dawn
photocell or PIR (Passive Infrared).
Dusk to Dawn Version
The Dusk to Dawn photocell version turns on when it starts to go dark in the
evening and switches off when it gets lighter in the morning. It will not detect
movement but will continually illuminate pathways, steps, patios, porches etc.,
or wherever constant security illumination is required. The basic installation
procedure is exactly the same for both the standard & Dusk to Dawn versions as
the PIR version but the PIR has some sitting rules to be observed.
PIR Version
The PIR version continuously scans a pre-set operating zone or area and
immediately switches the lamp on automatically when movement is detected,
when no movement is detected the lamp switches off. If movement is constant
within the range of the PIR the lamp will stay on. The PIR option makes it ideal
for pathways, steps, patios, porches etc. where security or convenient lighting
is required.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
To achieve the best results from your Porch Light we suggest you take
into account the following points before you fit the unit.
•
Dot not fix to a surface where vibration is possible or may occur.
•
Ideally the Porch Light should be mounted 1.8 to 2.5 metres (6 to 8 feet)
above the area to be scanned (see Fig 1).
•
To avoid nuisance triggering of the PIR, the sensor should be directed
away from heat sources, such as barbecues, air-conditioners, other
outside lighting, moving cars and flue vents. Also keep away from strong
electromagnetic disturbances.
•
Do not aim the PIR towards reflective surfaces, such as, smooth white
walls, swimming pools etc. The PIR sensor scanning specifications
(approximately 12 metres at approximately 110° - Horizontal, see Fig 2)
may vary slightly, depending on the mounting height and location. The
detection rang of the unit may also alter with temperature changes.
Before selecting a place to install your PIR Porch Light, you should note
that movement across the scan area is more effective than movement
directly towards or away from the PIR sensor (see Fig 3). If movement
is made walking directly towards or away from the PIR sensor and not
across, the PIR detection range will be substantially reduced (see Fig 4).
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Switch off the Mains supply at the main fuse/distribution box, ensuring
there is no power to the Porch Light.
2.
Refer to Figs 6, 7 and 8 for installation details.
3.
Remove the Porch Light Diffuser/Cover by using a flat head screwdriver in
the slots shown in Fig 6. Gently twist the screwdriver in all 4 slots in turn
until the cover is completely released from the locking mechanism.
4.
Unscrew the screw marked
A
(Fig 7) and remove the transparent plate
(Fig 8) to uncover the terminal block and cable gasket.
5.
Mark the mounting holes positions (x 2) onto the wall/surface. Drill and
plug the wall at the marked positions. Screw the Porch Light body to the
wall/surface with suitable mounting screws (supplied), making sure the
cable is fed through the rubber cable gasket.
6.
Then make the electrical connections to the terminal block as follows:
LIVE
- (Red or Brown) to a terminal marked
L
NEUTRAL
- (Black or Blue) to a terminal marked
N
7. Ensure that there are no exposed conductors, loose or trapped cable
strands.
8.
Please note this Porch Light is not dimmable.
9.
Re-fix the transparent plate by the screw marked
A
(Fig 7).
10. Re-fit the Porch Light Diffuser/Cover by hand.
11. After finishing the mounting, the PIR and Dusk to Dawn Sensors are fixed.
12. Switch on the power supply for testing and adjustment.
Please Note:
This Porch Light should be wired to its own light switch. Do
not interconnect with other lights on the same switch.
UNDERSTANDING THE CONTROLS (PIR)
(refer to Fig 5)
Adjusting the Duration Time:
The length of time the Porch Light remains on
once activated can be adjusted from 5 Seconds to 5 Minutes. Rotating the TIME
control from + to - will alter the duration time.
Note: Once the light has been triggered by the PIR sensor any subsequent
detection will start the time period again from the beginning
Adjusting the Lux Control Level:
The Lux control module has a built-in sensing
device (photocell) that detects daylight and darkness. The position denotes
that the Porch Light can work during the day and at night the position
means it will only work at night. You can set to operate the unit at the desired
level by adjusting the LUX control.
SETTING THE CONTROLS
1.
Turn the LUX control to the daylight position, turn the Porch Light
on and wait half a minute for the control circuit to stabilize. At this
stage ensure that the TIME control is set at the minimum duration
time - position. The Porch Light will now switch on and remain on for
approximately 30 seconds (within 60 seconds).
2.
Direct the sensor toward the desired area to be scanned by adjusting the
PIR sensor.
3.
Have another person move across the center of the area to be scanned
and slowly adjust the PIR sensor until the unit detects the presence of the
of the moving person, causing the light to switch on (see Fig 3).
4.
Adjust the time control to the required setting.
5.
To set the LUX level at which the light will automatically switch ‘ON’ at
night, please turn the LUX control from the daylight position to night. If
the light is required to switch on earlier, e.g. Dusk, wait for the desired
environmental light level, then slowly turn the LUX control towards the
daylight position while someone walks across the center of the area to be
detected. When the light switches on, release the LUX control. You may
need to make further adjustments for your ideal light level setting.
