Detection brightness B:
Here you can infinitely set at which ambient brightness
level movements should be detected and a switching
procedure should be triggered:
– Left stop (sun symbol): Day and night operation
(approx. 1000 lux), all movements in the area of
detection will be detected.
– Right stop (moon symbol): Night operation (approx.
5 lux), movements are only detected in the dark.
Sensitivity C:
You can use this to infinitely set the range up to which
the sensor module should be able to detect
movements:
– Left stop: Low sensitivity, movements up to a
distance of approx. 2.5 m will be detected.
– Right stop: Maximum sensitivity, movements up to
a distance of approx. 8 m will be detected.
| Note:Whenever the power supply has failed and
been re-established, the connected load

– Position 1 (On): Load is switched on permanently
(no movement detection).
– Position 0 (Off): Load is switched off permanently
(no movement detection).
What should I do if there is a problem?
The connected load will not be switched on.
Check the possible sources of error:
– Connected load not connected, wrongly
connected or switched off.
– Sensitivity set too low
– Detection brightness set incorrectly
– Heat source not in the area of detection of the
sensor module
– In the case of a sensor module with switch, the
switch is set to 0 (Off).
– Fuse defective (for information on how to change
the fuse, see the manual of the switch insert).

switches for the duration of the selected
switching time.
How to set up the sensor module
In order to ensure optimal functioning of the sensor
module, you must set it after installation.
4 Pull the sensor module with frame forwards from
the switch insert.
5 Set the switching duration to 1 second (Fig. & A,
left stop) and set the detection brightness to day and
night operation (Fig. & B, left stop).
6 Carefully push the sensor module with frame back
onto the switch insert.
7 Activate the load which is to be switched.
8 Approach the area of detection from several
different angles. If necessary, alter the sensitivity

The connected load is switched on permanently.
– It could be that the switching duration is set too
high. The sensor module constantly detects new
movements and restarts the switching duration.
For this reason, you should stay out of the area of
detection for at least 10 minutes.
– In the case of a sensor module with switch, it could
be that the switch is set to 1 (On).

(Fig & C) until the movement detector switches
the load as required.
When everything is working as it should:
9 Set the switching duration and the detection
brightness as desired.
0 Mount the sensor module and frame again.
How to operate the sensor module
with switch
You can set three functions on the sensor module with
switch (Fig. % A). The switch looks different
depending on the design (B or C) but the functionality
is the same.
– Position Auto: The sensor module switches loads
when a movement is detected and when the
switching duration has expired.
