Operation and testing
Walk Test Procedure
The detector will adjust vertically through 180 degrees
Adjust the detector to point at the desired elevation.
Angling downwards will limit forward looking range.
Set the two adjustment controls on the underside of the
unit (diagram C) to the following positions:
TIME - Fully anti-clockwise
DUSK - Fully clockwise
The unit will now operate during daytime as well as at
night, illuminating the lamp for approx. 5 seconds each
time detection occurs. This allows testing to be carried
out to establish the best position for the sensor. 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.
Walk across the detection area approx 5 metres from
the unit. As you cross a detection "zone" the lamp will
illuminate. Now stand still until the lamp extinguishes
(this should take approx. 5 seconds).
Start moving again. As you cross each "zone" the lamp
will illuminate.
Manual Override Mode
The light can be switched on for longer time periods by
use of the Manual Override Mode. This
can be activated at night by using the internal wall
switch or circuit breaker.
Switch the isolation switch twice (off/on, off/on) within
2 seconds. The unit will now illuminate continuously
until dawn or until it is switched back into Auto Mode.
To switch the unit back into Auto Mode, switch
isolation switch off/on once within 1 second. The unit
will return to Auto Mode.
