Safety markings:
Read this first:
>
This light fitting must be installed in
accordance with the Building Regulations.
These may be obtained from HMSO or viewed
and downloaded from www.odpm.gov.uk
following the link for Building Regulations.
>
If in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
>
Switch off the mains before commencing
installation and remove the appropriate circuit
fuse.
>
Do not use the fitting without the safety shield
fitted.
>
Replace the safety shield if it is cracked or
broken.
>
When replacing the lamp, do not touch with
bare fingers, grip the lamp with a tissue or
clean soft cloth.
>
Do not connect to a circuit which also has
inductive loads connected as spikes generated
switching inductive loads may damage
electronic components within your PIR
detector and may cause false triggering.
>
Suitable for outdoor use.
>
This product is suitable for installation on
surfaces with normal flammability ( indicated
by the "F" in a triangle ) e.g. wood,
plasterboard, masonry. It is not suitable for
use on highly flammable surfaces ( e.g.
polystyrene, textiles ).
>
Before making fixing hole(s), check that there
are no obstructions hidden beneath the
mounting surface such as pipes or cables.
>
The chosen location of your new fitting should
allow for the product to be securely mounted
and safely connected to the mains supply
( lighting circuit ).
>
If the location of your new fitting requires the
provision of a new electrical supply, the supply
must conform with the requirements of the
Building Regulations.
>
This product is designed for permanent
connection to fixed wiring: this should be either
a suitable lighting circuit ( protected with a 5 or
6 Amp MCB or fuse ) or a fused spur ( with a 3
Amp fuse ) via a fused connection unit. We
recommend that the supply incorporates a
switch for ease of operation.
>
Make connections to the electrical supply in
accordance with the following code:
Live - Brown or Red
Neutral - Blue or Black
Earth - Green and Yellow
>
Additional red wires may be present that are
connected to the ring live circuit. Do not
connect your fitting to these wires. If these
wires are not separately terminated, join them
together in a separate terminal block ( not
supplied ), ensure that there are no strands of
wire protruding from the terminals and wrap
well with insulating tape.
>
This product must be connected to Earth.
>
You are advised at every stage of your
installation to double-check any electrical
connections you have made. After you have
completed your installation there are electrical
tests that should be carried out: these tests are
specified in the Wiring Regulations ( BS7671 )
referred to in the Building Regulations. If in
doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Installation:
Choose the location of you new light fitting giving
consideration to the following points:
a) Avoid positioning the unit close to trees o r
shrubs that may cause false triggering during
wet or windy weather.
b) Avoid positioning the unit close to heat
sources such as boiler flues which may cause
false triggering,
c) Avoid positioning the unit close to bright
artificial light sources which will prevent the
unit from operating when the lux control is set
for operation in dark conditions.
d) PIR detectors are most sensitive to
movement across the field of detection.
1) Remove the diffuser from the front of the fitting
by inserting a wide bladed screwdriver into
each of the slots at the side of the diffuser in
turn, and twisting gently to release.
2) Remove the translucent cover in front of the
lampholder by first removing the small screw in
the top left hand corner.
3) Using the fitting as a template, mark the
position of the fixing holes on your mounting
surface, taking into account the position of
IP44
your emerging supply cable and the cable
entry point in the fitting.
4) Pierce the rubber grommet in the cable entry
and thread your supply cable through the
grommet. The grommet should be a tight fit on
the cable to maintain a good water-tight seal.
5) Secure your fitting in place using suitable
fixings ( not supplied ).
6) Replace the translucent cover in front of the
lampholder and secure using the screw
removed earlier.
7) Fit a light bulb observing the maximum wattage
marked on the side of the fitting and listed on
the back of this leaflet.
8) Press the diffuser into place ensuring that all of
the retaining clips have snapped into position
correctly and that the diffuser is secure.
9) Adjust the position of the PIR detector to cover
the desired area.
10) You can check the operation of the PIR
detector by performing a “walk test”, see
below.
11) Restore the power and switch on.
Time on adjustment.
( TIME control )
Turning the time control clockwise reduces the time
that the light stays on after activation. Turning it
anti-clockwise increases the time the light stays on
after activation.
Lux level adjustment
( LUX control )
Turning the lux control anti-clockwise ( towards the
sun symbol ) increases the ambient light level in
which the PIR will operate. Turning it clockwise
( towards the moon symbol ) will decrease the
ambient light level in which the PIR will operate.
Walk test
Turn the Lux adjustment control fuly anti-clockwise
( towards the sun symbol ) and the time control fully
clockwise. The fitting will now operate in full daylight
and stay on for between 5 and 15 seconds after
each detection.
Adjust the position of the PIR detector so that it is
triggered by movement in the desired area. Further
adjustment can be made by blanking out sections of
the PIR window with opaque tape ( not supplied ).
After satisfactory completion of the walk test, the lux
adjustment needs to be set to allow operation of the
light in darkness. At a time when the ambient light is
at the level you want your light to turn on, turn the
lux control clockwise ( towards the moon symbol )
until the light ceases to operate and then back
slightly. Repeat adjustments over following nights
until the operation of the light is as desired.
Adjust the time setting so that the light remains
illuminated for the desired length of time.
