“
Active sensors
" can be set for each 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 position of the sensors can be recognised by activating the parameter "
Information about
sensor assignment
".
The “T
rigger sensitivity Day/Night”
describes the sensitivity in standby mode (the output is
switched-off, no movement was detected).
The
“Presence sensitivity”
describes the sensitivity in presence mode (the output is switched on,
movement was detected).
To avoid false detections, an
interference/motion filter
can be activated that filters out very short
motions, e.g., due to draughts. If this filter is activated, 2 additional parameters appear: "
Length of
monitoring time slot
" and "
Number of monitoring time slots
".
This means that a longer detection is required for switching on. To switch on the channel at least one
detection must have taken place in each of the set monitoring time slots. For example, with 3
monitoring time slots and a length of 2 seconds for a monitoring time slot, at least one detection
would have to take place in the first 2 seconds, at least one detection in the second 2s and at least
one detection in the third 2 seconds. Thus, it takes at least 6 seconds for the alarm channel to trigger.
If the motion filter is not activated, the detection takes place for only one movement with the
sensitivity set accordingly.
The
follow-up time
describes the time that elapses after the last detection of a movement until the
output is switched off. 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 restarts the follow-up time.
This time can be set differently for Day and Night.
A
lock object or enable object
can be activated to lock or enable the Alarm channel. The lock object
switches the channel off with a 1. The enable object activates the Alarm channel with a 1.
Attention
: An active lock of the channel has no effect on the movement direction detection!
With the parameter "
Fallback of forced guidance/lock" (General settings)
, you can set whether the
channel should react to the configuration for "Fallback forced guidance/lock" in the "General
settings" or not.
With "
Output objects for Day/Night
" you can set whether switching is done via a common object or
separate objects for Day and Night. Using separate objects, for example, a different action can be
carried out for Day than for Night.
With the parameter "
Output object sends
", a send filter can be activated for the output. If the
output is only to send ON commands the setting "only ON" can be used.
Via "
Output object sends cyclically
every…
", it can be set that the output object sends its value
cyclically to the bus at an interval to be defined.
