2. General safety precautions

!
Disconnect the power supply before attempting any work on the unit.
• During installation, the electric power cable being connected must not be
live. Therefore, switch off the power first and use a voltage tester to make
sure the wiring is off-circuit.
• Installing the sensor-switched light involves work on the mains voltage sup-
ply. This work must therefore be carried out professionally in accordance
with national wiring regulations and electrical operating conditions.
• Only use genuine replacement parts.
• Repairs may only be made by specialist workshops.
3. L 830 / L 835 / L 840 / GL 80 LED iHF
Proper use
– Sensor-switched light for mounting on indoor and outdoor walls
(L 830 / L 835 / L 840 LED iHF)
– Sensor-switched light for mounting on floor, indoors and out
(GL 80 LED iHF)
The sensor-switched light features an active motion detector. The integrated
HF sensor emits high-frequency electromagnetic waves (5.8 GHz) and receives
their echo. Any movement by persons in the light's detection zone is noticed
by the sensor as a change in echo. A microprocessor then issues the switch
command "switch light ON". Detection is possible through doors, panes of
glass or thin walls. Analysing the signal, the sensor distinguishes between
moving persons and moving objects, such as bushes or small animals.
