PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SUGGESTED REMEDY
Lamp does not switch
on when there is
movement in the
detection area.
1. no mains voltage
Check all connections, and
Fuses/switches
2. near by lighting is too
bright.
Redirect sensor or relocate
the unit
3. controls set incorrectly
Readjust sensor angle or
control knob
4. sensor positioned in wrong
direction
Redirect sensor and/or adjust
Lamp switches on for
no apparent reason
(false trigger)
1. heat sources such as
air-con, Vents, heater flues,
barbecues, other outside
lighting, moving cars are
activating sensor.
Away from heat sources.
2. animals/birds e.g. possums
or domestic animals.
Redirecting sensor head may
help.
3. interference from on/off
switching of electric fans or
lights on the same circuit as
your security floodlight. (this
problem does not always
occur but a faulty switch or
noisy fluorescent light may
cause the security floodlight
to switch on.)
Should the false triggering
become, troublesome,
consider:
a) replacing a faulty switch.
b) Replacing noisy
fluorescent Tubes and/or
starters.
c) connecting the global lamp
to a separate circuit(in most
cases where one or more of
the above suggestions have
been carried out, false
triggering has been reduced.)
4. reflection from swimming
pool, or reflective surface.
Redirect sensor.
Light remains on.
1. continuously false
triggered
Redirecting sensor head may
help
2. time is set too long.
Reduce time
Light switches on
during daylight hours.
LUX control knob is set to
daylight position.
Turn the LUX control knob to
desired light level setting.
When setting controls
in daylight the
detection distance
becomes shorter.
1.interference by sunlight
Re-test at night.
