Active sensors
The active sensors can be set for each light channel. This allows the detection range of the channel to
be limited. For example, if only one area in a corridor is to be detected, only one sensor can be
activated. The alignment of the sensors becomes recognisable by activating the parameter
"Information about sensor assignment".
Sensitivity
If a channel is set to “
basic setting (General settings)
”, the sensitivity always refers to the settings,
made in the “General settings” menu. If set to “
individual
”,
the parameters for trigger sensitivity and
presence sensitivity appear and can be made individually for the corresponding light channel.
Note
: From database V4.4 onwards and from device HW R2.5 onwards, it is also possible to set the
sensitivity to level 0 (lowest level).
Brightness
With "
Basic setting or object "Dark switch" active
", brightness refers to the settings in "General
setting". However, this can become brightness-independent via the "Dark switch" object with a 1 and
thus switches at any brightness.
No threshold applies via the "
independent of brightness
" setting and the channel always switches.
Fully automatic
If the presence detector is set as fully automatic, every detected presence causes the output to
switch on and is switched off again after the follow-up time has elapsed.
Half automatic (manual switching)
In half-automatic mode, the output is switched on via the object "External push-button short" and
automatically switched off again after the follow-up time has elapsed.
The
follow-up time
describes the time that elapses after the last detection of a movement until the
output is switched off. The follow-up time can be set differently for Day/Night. For example, with a
follow-up time of 3 minutes, the light would be switched on for at least 3 minutes if movement was
detected. Each new detection leads to a retriggering and thus a restart of the follow-up time.
In addition, a "
reduction of the follow-up time
" can be activated. In this case, two additional
parameters are displayed:
Maximum duration for short-time presence
: Indicates the duration between the first and the last
movement detection to activate the short-time presence.
Follow-up time for short-time presence
: Indicates the duration of the follow-up time when the
short-time presence was activated.
If the first and last movement was detected within the set duration for short-time presence when
short- time presence was activated, the output is not switched on for the regular follow-up time, but
only for the follow-up time of the short-time presence.
