preferable to those with slight deviations towards
the east.

Horizontal orientation:
The horizontal orientation of the solar cell depends
on the geographic latitude of the mounting location.
In central Europe, and angle of 30°–40° is ideal.

Drill 4 holes. Mount the solar cell by using

the dowel

21

(ø 6 mm) and screws

14

(ø 3.7 x 28 mm). To do so, use the pre-finished
mounting holes (see Fig. E).

After mounting, check that the solar cell is fitted

securely.

Note: After mounting, orient the solar cell by
tilting it. The solar cell is fitted with a joint which
locks every 18° to permit orientation.

Preparing the product for use

Switching the motion detector

on and off

Slide the AUTO / OFF switch

4

into the AUTO

position to switch on the motion detector

6

.

Slide the AUTO / OFF switch into the OFF posi-

tion to switch off the motion detector.

Setting the lighting duration

Turn the rotary control TIME

10

on the bottom

of the motion detector

6

clockwise to increase

the duration of the illumination. The lighting
duration can be adjusted within a time window
of approx. 10–60 seconds.

Adjusting the sensitivity of

the sensor

Turn the rotary control SENS

9

on the bottom

of the motion detector

6

clockwise to in-

crease the sensitivity of the sensor.

Note: The motion detector responds to heat
radiation. When outdoor temperatures are low,

it is more sensitive to body heat than when out-
door temperatures are warm. Be sure to regu-
late the sensitivity of the sensor over the course
of the year.

Setting the daylight level

Turn the rotary control LUX

8

on the bottom of

the motion detector

6

clockwise to increase

the daylight level. In position , the motion
detector only responds at pitch-black night
(approx. 50 lx). In position , the motion
detector also responds at daylight levels, as
long as about 20,000 lx are not exceeded.

Orientating the motion

detector

Loosen the fastening screws

5

of the motion

detector

6

.

Turn the rotary control LUX

8

to position .

Orient the motion detector into the central
region of the desired coverage area.

Move about through the coverage area until

you are satisfied with the response characteris-
tics of the motion detector. To find the proper
orientation, change the position of the rotary
control SENS

9

or the orientation of the

motion detector.

Re-tighten the fastening screws to fix the adjust-

ment.

Turn the rotary control LUX to the desired posi-

tion. These can be determined during the dawn
or twilight hours during which the spotlight

7

should respond. Slowly turn the rotary control
LUX clockwise until it reacts to movement within
the coverage area.
