1. General Information These instructions should be read carefully and retained for further reference and maintenance. 2. Safety • Before installation or maintenance, ensure the mains supply to the PIR sensor is switched off and the circuit supply fuses are removed or the circuit breaker turned off.
4. Selecting a Location • Careful positioning of the sensor will be required to ensure optimum performance. The mounting height for the sensor should be 2.5m. See diagram A. • The sensor is more sensitive to movement ACROSS its field of vision than to movement directly TOWARDS.
5. Installation 5.1 Ensure the mains supply is switched OFF and the circuit supply fuses are removed or the circuit breaker turned OFF (See image 1). 5.2 An isolating switch should be installed to enable the power to be switched ON and OFF for maintenance purposes and to activate the manual/auto override function.
