If you are using NiMH rechargeable batteries then the approximate thresholds
are as follows:
Number of flashes
4
3
2
1
Alignment & Sensitivity Indicator
After the power-up phase, the LED will flash quickly three times and the
sensor will commence normal operation.
The LED will light up whenever motion is detected. This can be used as a
visual aid to help align the sensor so that it is only detecting motion in the
desired trigger zone. When you are using the LED to set-up your sensor, you
might want to leave your camera off to avoid taking unwanted images.
After 5 minutes the LED will be disabled in order to conserve battery power
and avoid drawing attention to the PIR sensor. If you want to reactive the LED
then you will need to turn the sensor off and then on again.
If the LED is illuminating in response to motion but the camera is not firing
then please check the following:
1) Some programs do not fire the camera (for example, several video
programs do not send full-press signals to the camera)
2) If in a "Night" program, then the camera will not fire if the ambient light
level is above the luminosity threshold set by the Luminosity Dial
3) If in a "Day" program, then the camera will not fire if the ambient light
level is below the luminosity threshold set by the Luminosity Dial
4) Some programs include long delays during which the camera will not
fire (for example, in Program 1 to 6, it is possible to set a delay of up to
60 seconds after each burst)
5) Your camera may not be set-up correctly so double-check the settings
in the "Quick Start" guide on Page 18.
