Troubleshooting
SensorLight without power
SensorLight will not switch ON
SensorLight will not switch OFF
SensorLight switches on without
any identifiable movement
SensorLight does not switch ON
despite movement
Malfunction
House fuse faulty, not switched ON,
break in wiring
Short circuit in mains power supply
lead
Any mains switch OFF
Renew house fuse, switch ON
mains power switch, check wiring
with voltage tester
Connect connections
Switch on mains power switch
Wrong twilight setting selected
Bulb faulty
Mains switch OFF
House fuse faulty
Adjust setting
Change bulb
Switch ON
Renew house fuse,
check connection if necessary
Continuous movement
in the detection zone
Check zone setting
Light mounting surface is subject to
vibration
Movement occurred, but not identi-
fied by the sensor (movement behind
wall, movement of a small object in
immediate lamp vicinity etc.)
Securely mount enclosure
Check zone setting
Rapid movements are being sup-
pressed to minimise malfunctioning
or the detection zone you have set
is too small
Check zone setting
Cause Remedy
The SensorLight can be put into operation as soon as
the enclosure has been fitted and the SensorLight
has been connected to the mains power supply.
Putting the light into operation manually at the light
switch turns it off after 10 secs. for the calibration
phase. Once calibrated, it is activated for the sensor
mode. It is not necessary to operate the light switch a
second time.
Reach setting (sensitivity)
Reach is the term used to describe the
diameter of the more or less circular
detection zone produced on the
ground after mounting the sensor
light at a height of 2.5 m. Turn the
reach control fully anticlockwise to
select minimum reach (approx. 1 m
dia.)*, and fully clockwise to select maximum reach
(approx. 8 m dia.)*. (The light leaves the factory set to
maximum reach.)
Time setting (switch-off delay)
The light can be set to stay ON for
any period of time between approx.
5 sec. (control turned fully anti-
clockwise) and a maximum of 15 min.
(control turned fully clockwise).
(The light leaves the factory set to the
shortest time.) Any movement detect-
ed before this time elapses will re-start the timer. It is
recommended to select the shortest time for adjusting
the detection zone and for performing the walk test.
Note: After the light switches OFF, it takes approx.
1 sec. before it is able to start detecting movement
again. The light will only switch on in response to
movement once this period has elapsed.
Twilight setting (response threshold)
The chosen light response threshold
can be infinitely varied from approx.
2–2000 lux. Turn control fully anti-
clockwise to select dusk-to-dawn
operation at about 2 lux. Turn control
fully clockwise to select daylight
operation at about 2000 lux. (The
light leaves the factory set to daylight operation.) The
control must be turned fully clockwise when adjusting
the detection zone and performing the walk test in
daylight.
