Solution
Cover PIR lens with a thick cloth. If the
light turns out, check detection area for
heat or reflective source.
If the light stays on, check wiring. See
Section 3.
Turn the unit off at the isolation switch.
Turn back on after 30 seconds. Leave for
approximately 18 minutes. If light
activates, check area for false activation
from heat, wind or reflective source.
Check that the power is switched ON at the
isolation switch.
Turn OFF the power to the unit and check
the wiring connections.
Check the lamp. If the lamp has failed,
replace. Ensure that the lamp is seated
correctly in the lampholder. Please note
that the unit will not detect through glass.
(e.g. in a glazed porch).
The level of ambient light in the area may
be too bright to allow operation at the
current DUSK setting. During the hours
of darkness, adjust the DUSK control
slowly clockwise until the lamp illuminates.
Refer to previous section for more details.
Adjust the setting anti-clockwise to lower
the level of ambient light required for
activation.
Unit may be poorly located. See previous
section - ‘Selecting A Location’ and
re-locate the unit.
