RAPIX Lighting Control System
8. Operation and Configuration
Upon power-up the sensor performs an initialisation which takes approximately 45 seconds. Once the
initialisation is complete, normal operation commences and full sensitivity is reached after a period of
approximately 5 minutes.
When the sensor is powered and functional, green and red LEDs within the sensor head will indicate
mode/operation as defined in the table below.

Normal Operation
Walk Test Mode
Setting time delay and light level threshold
The time delay and light level threshold settings are
easily configured after installation by using the
patented push in-pop out mechanism.
Press gently on the lens until a click is heard then
release to access sensor adjustment sliders.
Press gently on the head until click is heard to return
to normal operating position.
The tables below detail the parameters for the time delay and ambient light level adjustable settings.

In Walk Test Mode the output will activate for 5 seconds only
Note: The eHub can also set timing for the sensor, see the application note on the Diginet Web Site.

* If the ambient light has exceeded the set threshold, the Occupancy Sensor will send an ON signal to the eHub
Note: The lux level threshold values shown above refer to the minimum light level incident on the sensor. Typical
room light levels are considerably larger. Surfaces and materials in the space being controlled will determine the
amount of reflected light onto the sensor head.
