Installation and Setup
Before beginning installation, ensure the main power supply is disconnected at the circuit breaker.
1. Mounting Location
Choose a suitable indoor location for recessed mounting. Avoid placing the detector near heat sources, air conditioning vents, or areas with direct sunlight, as these can cause false triggers. The optimal mounting height is typically between 2.2m and 4m for effective detection.
2. Prepare the Mounting Hole
Create a circular cutout in the ceiling or wall according to the specified dimensions. Refer to the diagram below for precise measurements.

Figure 1: Kanlux Merge JQ-O Motion Detector Dimensions
This diagram illustrates the physical dimensions of the motion detector, including the required cutout size for recessed installation. The total depth is 73mm. The visible front ring has a diameter of 76mm, with the sensor lens having a diameter of 50mm. The main body for recessing has a diameter of 62mm. The recommended installation hole diameter is 65mm.
- Recessed Cutout Diameter: Ø65mm (as per product description) or Ø62mm (as per diagram for the body). The diagram also shows Ø76mm for the outer ring. Use Ø65mm for the hole.
- Recessed Depth: 73mm.
3. Wiring
Connect the detector to the 220V electrical supply and the load (e.g., light fixture) according to the wiring diagram provided with the product packaging. Ensure all connections are secure and insulated. The terminals are typically marked for Live (L), Neutral (N), and Switched Live (L').
Note: The provided product information does not include a specific wiring diagram. Always refer to the diagram supplied with your physical product for correct wiring.
4. Insert the Detector
Carefully push the detector into the prepared cutout. The spring clips will secure it in place.
5. Restore Power
Once installation is complete, restore power at the circuit breaker.
Operating Instructions and Adjustments
The Kanlux Merge JQ-O motion detector features adjustable settings for optimal performance.
1. Time Delay Adjustment (TIME)
This knob controls how long the connected load remains ON after motion is no longer detected. The adjustable range is from 5 seconds to 6 minutes. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the time delay and counter-clockwise to decrease it.
2. Light Sensitivity Adjustment (LUX)
This knob determines the ambient light level at which the detector will become active.
- Turn towards the "sun" symbol for activation only in bright conditions (e.g., daytime).
- Turn towards the "moon" symbol for activation in low light conditions (e.g., nighttime).
3. Detection Area
The detector has a 360° horizontal and 120° vertical detection angle with a maximum range of 5 meters. Test the detection area after installation to ensure it covers the desired space. Walk through the area to observe when the detector triggers.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the sensor lens with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Inspection: Periodically check for any visible damage or loose connections.
- No User-Serviceable Parts: The device contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to open or repair the unit yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on when motion is detected. |
|
|
| Light stays on continuously or turns on randomly. |
|
