Operation

Function and application
The "SOLAR" presence sensor detects the presence of people
and measures the intensity of ambient light. The energy supply
for the presence sensor is provided by solar cells or, if daylight
or artificial light is insufficient, by batteries.
The radio control system is primarily used to extend existing
electrical installations without additional cabling.

Function

The values measured by the presence sensor (motion, light
value) are transmitted to the "Switch RC" radio receiver via a ra-
dio signal. The measured light value depends on the incidence
of daylight, the artificial lighting and the properties of the surface
(light/dark).
The presence sensor is only ensured to function in combination
with the radio receiver. All switching functions and parameter
settings of the presence sensor are executed via the radio
receiver.
The following parameters can be set for every presence sensor
programmed for the radio receiver:
• Delay (switch-off delay time if no motion is detected)
• Light value
• Mode
Note:
More information on the parameter settings can be found in the
separate instructions for the „Switch RC" radio receiver.

Energy supply from solar cells/batteries

If daylight or artificial light is sufficient, the sensor is powered
by solar cells.
For immediate operation, the energy storage unit must first be
charged for approx. 5 minutes at a minimum of 50 – 100 lux.
For light value measurement to function properly, the energy
storage unit must be charged for several days at a minimum of
50 – 100 lux.
The "Test" button can be used to check the operational readi-
ness of the presence sensor; see "Testing the operational
readiness".
The presence sensor can optionally be operated with batteries
if, for example, the sensor is located in a room with a very low
light value (< 50 lux).

Construction

The presence sensor is made up of the following components:
• "LRN" button (A) for programming the presence sensor for
the radio receiver
• Taste LRN "Test" button (B) for sending a test signal
• Light sensor (C)

• Motion sensor (D)

LED Test
• "Test" LED (F) for monitoring the operational readiness
• Housing (G) with battery compartment
Note
The presence sensor cannot be used to manually switch
the lighting on and off. Because all switching functions and
parameter settings of the presence sensor are executed via the
"Switch RC" radio receiver, the function of the presence sensor
is only ensured in combination with the radio receiver.
Programming the sensor for the radio
receiver
The presence sensor can be programmed for a radio receiver
and can be deleted again.
Proceed as follows:
 Activate the programming mode of the radio receiver; see
the separate instructions of the "Switch RC" radio receiver.
‚
Press the "LRN" button.
Then proceed as follows if persons were located within the de-
tection area when the presence sensor was being programmed:
 Ensure that all persons leave the detection area of the pres-
ence sensor.
‚ Enter the detection area again after at least 2 minutes
elapse.
Result: The presence sensor sends an ON signal and functions
properly.
