How to use

Install the sensor on a vertical wall surface at the recommended height and orientation to cover the target area. Connect the device to the mains wiring following local electrical regulations and ensure the power is switched off during installation. Adjust the alignment and, if applicable, any built-in sensitivity or time settings according to the installation requirements. After wiring and placement are complete, restore power and test detection by walking through the coverage area to confirm reliable switching of the controlled lighting or load.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, mount the sensor where the detection zone is free from obstructions and heat sources such as vents or direct sunlight. Use the sensor with weatherproof junction boxes or protective mounting if installed in exposed locations. Observe local electrical codes during wiring and, if uncertain, consult a qualified electrician for installation and commissioning.
