6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Motion Detection and Alerts

Once successfully paired and installed, the PIR motion detector will continuously monitor its environment. When human or animal movement is detected within its 120° angle and 5-8 meter range, it will trigger an event. The Tuya app will then push a warning message or alert notification to your smartphone, keeping you informed of activity at home, even when you are away.

6.2 Smart Scenarios and Automation

Leverage the Tuya Smart Life platform to create intelligent automation routines:

  • Automatic Lighting: Link the PIR sensor with a smart light strip or smart switch. When motion is detected, the lights can automatically turn on, providing convenience in dark areas like hallways or bedrooms at night.
  • PIR sensor and smart light strip for automatic night lighting

7. Maintenance

7.1 Battery Replacement

The sensor is powered by a CR2450 button battery, which typically lasts about 1 year with 10 detections per day. When the battery is low, the app may notify you, or you might notice a decrease in sensor responsiveness. To replace the battery:

  1. Gently twist or pry open the sensor casing.
  2. Remove the old CR2450 battery.
  3. Insert a new CR2450 battery, ensuring the positive (+) side faces up.
  4. Close the sensor casing securely.

7.2 Cleaning

To maintain optimal performance, periodically clean the sensor lens and casing with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the device.

8. Troubleshooting

  • Device not found during pairing / App not finding device:
    • Ensure your Tuya Zigbee Gateway is properly set up, powered on, and connected to your home network.
    • Confirm the sensor has a fresh CR2450 battery installed and is powered on.
    • Make sure the sensor is in pairing mode (blue light flashing) by pressing the reset button for more than 3 seconds.
    • Bring the sensor closer to the Zigbee Gateway during the pairing process.
    • Ensure your mobile phone is connected to the same network as the gateway.
  • No notifications received:
    • Check your smartphone's notification settings for the Tuya Smart/Smart Life app to ensure alerts are enabled.
    • Verify that the sensor is actively detecting motion (check the device's history records in the app).
    • Ensure the Zigbee Gateway is online and communicating with the sensor.
    • Check the sensor's battery level in the app.
  • Does it work with direct Wi-Fi or other hubs (e.g., Philips Hue)?:
    • No, this device operates on the Zigbee 3.0 protocol and specifically requires a Tuya Zigbee Gateway/Hub for connectivity and integration with the Tuya Smart/Smart Life app. It is not compatible with direct Wi-Fi connections or non-Tuya Zigbee hubs like Philips Hue Bridge.
  • Is the device waterproof?:
    • No, this motion detector is designed for indoor use only and is not waterproof. Avoid exposure to moisture.

9. User Tips

  • History Tracking: Utilize the "History Records Tracking" feature in the Tuya app to review past motion detection events, which can be useful for security analysis or understanding activity patterns.
  • Strategic Placement: Due to its "Strong Performance & Ultra-long Standby Time", place the sensor in key areas like entryways, hallways, or rooms where motion detection is critical. Consider the detection angle and distance for optimal coverage.
  • Nighttime Convenience: Pair the sensor with smart lighting to automatically illuminate paths when you get out of bed at night, eliminating the need to search for light switches.
  • Enhanced Security: For comprehensive security, integrate the PIR sensor with a smart camera. When motion is detected, the camera can automatically record, providing visual evidence and enhancing your home monitoring capabilities.

10. Warranty and Support
