ANGE to alter detection range of PIR controls to the desired positions for AUTO operation 4 2 SETTING THE DURATION OF THE LIGHT The TIME control T Fig 23 should be turned up if the lights are required to switch on for longer e Time is adjustable between approximately 15 seconds to 5 minutes e f a moving heat source is detected the sensor is triggered switching on the light and beginning timing out according to the pre set TIME period If triggered further the light will stay on for the pre set time period from the last trigger e The ideal ON time for general domestic situations is usually 2 3 minutes 4 3 SETTING THE LUX AMBIENT LIGHT LEVEL The LUX setting F Fig 24 adjusts how low the light level needs to go down to level of darkness before the light operates e The LUX control adjusts the light level at which the light and PIR operate At level marked 1 it operates at maximum darkness at level marked 5 it operates in daylight 4 4 SETTING THE RANGE The RANGE sensitivity of the PIR is affected by the range of detection and the amount of infra red radiation heat required to trigger the sensor e The Range sensitivity adjustment R Fig 25 can also be used to compensate for the changes in outside air temperature in winter and summer e To be effective but keep nuisance tripping to a minimum it is advised to turn the RANGE control to the middle position where the ambient air temperature is

STANDARD POWER SUPPLY NO SWITCHED OVERRIDE e Connect the BROWN or RED Live wire to the terminal marked L holding the single BROWN wire in the floodlight unit Fig 13 e Connect the BLUE or BLACK Neutral wire to the terminal marked N holding the TWO BLUE wires in the floodlight unit e Connect the YELLOW GREEN or bare Earth wire to the terminal marked E holding the single YELLOW GREEN wire in the floodlight unit Fig 13 IF CONNECTING A SWITCHED OVERRIDE optional e If using a switch override the switched override wires should enter the connection box via a second cable gland and circuits should operate as shown in Fig 14 e The override switch to the Mightylite should be wired as shown in Fig 14 e When wiring to the Mightylite connect L1 Switch override BROWN or RED Live wire to the terminal marked SL holding both the RED and BROWN wires Note If the wire to the Switch Live terminal is Blue then a Brown sleeve should be slid over the wire to indicate it is Switch Live e Connect the Common C BROWN or RED Live wire to the terminal marked L with the single BROWN wire only Fig 15 After the connections have been secured the floodlight front Connection Box front should be fastened to the Connection Box using the 4 Connection Box Screws provided Fig 16 Once screws are secure the screw covers provided should be fitted Fig 16 If the Mightylite has been attached
6. TROUBLESHOOTING POSSIBLE SOLUTION e Turn on indoor switch or check fuse PROBLEM Lights won t come on POSSIBLE CAUSE e Power not on e Wired incorrectly e Check wiring is the same as wiring diagram e PIR not detecting movement e Adjust the angle and direction of the PIR For best results walk across the beam e Wait until light conditions are darker at dusk or under 40 Lux or turn the LUX control up e Light conditions too bright Lights stay on e TIME set too high e Turn Time knob towards end 15 secs to 5 min adjustable e Wired incorrectly e Check wiring is the same as wiring diagram e Frequent changes in heat are being e Check sensing area for possible heat sources detected e g air vents moving vehicles moving trees and re position the sensor or alter the RANGE control downwards e Switched override ON e Check status of switched override and change if required Lights keep turning e Changes in heat are being detected e Check the sensing area for air vents light fittings or from a fixed heat source fans and either re position the sensor or adjust the aim on and off cycling e Changes in heat are being detected from a moving object e Check the sensing area for moving vehicles animals pedestrians moving trees and alter the aim of the sensor accordingly e Alter aim of the sensor or paint the reflecting surface with a dull finish e Light and heat are being reflected back ont
