TROUBLESHOOTING AND USER HINTS:

Note:

 all passive infra red detectors are more sensitive in cold and dry weather than warm and wet weather.

SPECIFICATIONS:

•  Detection range: Approx. 120° (horizontal), Max. 8 metres.

• Duration time: from 5 sec - 5 mins. (adjustable).

•  Factory preset PIR - no override facility.

• LUX - adjustable.

 

LAMP REPLACEMENT:

PROBLEM

POSSIBLE CAUSE

SUGGESTED REMEDY

Light does not switch on 

when there is movement 

in the detection area.

1. No mains voltage

Check all connections, and MCB Fuses / switches

2. Nearby lighting is too bright

Relocate the unit

3. Wired incorrectly

Check wiring and confirm its wired as per the 

wiring diagram

Light switches on for no 

apparent reason (false 

trigger)

1.  Heat sources such as air-con, vents, heaters, flues, 

other outside lighting, moving cars trees or shrubs 

are activating sensor

Relocate fitting

2. Animals / birds activating sensor

Relocate fitting

3.  Interference from on/off switching of electric fans 

or lights on the same circuit as your fitting. 

(This problem does not always occur but a faulty 

switch may cause the fitting to switch on)

Should the false triggering become, troublesome, 

consider:
(a) Replacing a faulty switch
(b)  Connecting the fitting to a separate circuit (in 

most cases where one or more of the above 

suggestions have been carried out, false 

triggering has been reduced)

4.  Reflection from swimming pool, or reflective 

surface such as smooth white walls 

Relocate fitting

Light remains on

Continuously false triggered

Relocate fitting

Light remains on at 

nighttime

Possible heat source in detection zone

Cover PIR sensor lens with a thick cloth, if the 

light turns off check detection area for heat or 

reflective source, reposition head

When setting the lux 

controls in daylight 

the detection distance 

becomes shorter

Interference by sunlight

Re-test at night

UNDERSTANDING THE CONTROLS:

Please refer to Fig. 5 below.

 

ADJUSTING THE DURATION TIME:

The length of time that the light remains switched on after activation can be adjusted from 5 seconds to 5 

minutes. Rotating the TIME screw (+) to (-) will reduce the time duration. 

Note:

 once the light has been triggered by the PIR sensor any subsequent detection will start the timed 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 (

R

position denotes that the bulkhead light can work at day and night, and the (

) position will only work at night.

You can set to operate the light at the desired level by adjusting the LUX screw.

 

SETTING THE CONTROLS:

Turn the LUX control knob to light (

R

) position, at this stage ensure that the time control screw is set at 

minimum duration time (-) position. The bulkhead light will now switch on and remain on for about 5 seconds.

Direct the sensor toward the desired area to be scanned. 

Adjust time control to required setting.

To set the LUX level at which the lamp will automatically switch “on” at night, turn the LUX control screw from 

daylight to night (

). If the lamp is required to switch on earlier, e. g. dusk, wait for the desired environment 

light level, then slowly turn the LUX control screw towards the daylight (

R

) while someone walks across the 

centre of the area to be detected. When the lamp switches on, stop adjusting.
