Antumbra Shielding - Philips Antumbra Installation Manual

Antumbra shielding

False triggering of the proximity sensor may occur if the shield terminal is not connected to
the wall box or metal mounting plate. False triggering of the Proximity Sensor can be
prevented by ensuring the following points are considered during installation:
•
Surrounding cables are at a minimum distance of 25-30 cm away from the panel.
•
The first 30 cm of the cable connected to the panel is fixed. The cable should not
move.
•
The preferable cable exit after connection to the terminal block is towards the
bottom of the panel as it does not have the proximity sensing pad
•
Avoid installing the panel closer than 30 cm from any metal object and other control
panels of the same or different type as it may affect the proximity sensing range and
cause false triggering.
Note: Do not install panels near windows, sources of heat and air-condition ventilation
outlets, also do not expose them to direct sunlight as all these factors may affect
temperature sensing performance.
