    Reflective surfaces (ie pools of water or white-painted walls) and overhanging branches may cause false activation under extreme conditions. During extreme weather conditions the motion sensor may exhibit unusual behaviour. This does not indicate a fault with the sensor. Once normal weather conditions return, the sensor will resume normal operation. 5. Installation IMPORTANT Switch off the electricity at the fuse box by removing the relevant fuse or switching off the circuit breaker before proceeding with the installation. All fittings should be installed by competent person in accordance with IEE Wiring Regulations (BS7671) Do not attempt to install if you are suffering from nausea or dizzy spells or on medication with similar side effects. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

  • Page 7 7. Setting up Walk Test Procedure TIME – Fully anti-clockwise (Test Mode) DUSK – Fully clockwise The unit will now operate during daytime as well as at night, illuminating the lamp for approx. 5 seconds each time. This allows testing to be carried out to establish whether the sensor is covering the required area. The lamp will immediately illuminate as the unit goes through its “warm-up” period. After approximately 1 minute the lamp will extinguish. Try to remain outside the detection area during the warm-up period.
  • Page 8 The DUSK control determines the level of darkness required for the unit to start operating. The setting is best achieved by the procedure below: Set the DUSK control knob fully anti-clockwise. The unit will now start operating at dusk. If you require the light to activate earlier, wait until the ambient light level reaches the level of darkness at which you wish the lamp to become operative, SLOWLY (a small step at a time) rotate the control in a clockwise direction until a point is reached where the lamp illuminates in response to a hand moving below the unit. Leave the control set at this point. At this position, the unit should become operative at approximately the same level of darkness each evening.
