5. Installation
5.1 Mounting Location
The motion detector is designed for ceiling surface mounting. Choose a location that provides the desired detection coverage and is free from obstructions. The optimal installation height is between 4 meters and 10 meters to achieve the specified 20x4m detection area.

5.2 Wiring
WARNING: Ensure the main power supply is switched off before commencing any wiring work.
- Open the housing of the motion detector carefully.
- Connect the power supply wires to the appropriate terminals as shown in the wiring diagram below.
- Connect the load (e.g., light fixture) wires to the designated output terminals.
- Ensure all connections are secure and properly insulated.
- Close the housing, ensuring a tight seal to maintain the IP65 rating.

6. Operation and Settings
After successful installation and power-up, the motion detector will enter a warm-up phase for approximately 30-60 seconds. During this time, it may trigger randomly. Once the warm-up is complete, you can adjust the settings using the two dials:
6.1 TIME Setting (Lighting Duration)
The TIME dial controls how long the connected light remains on after motion is detected and no further motion is sensed. You can adjust it from approximately 10 seconds to 30 minutes.
- Turn the dial clockwise for a longer duration.
- Turn the dial counter-clockwise for a shorter duration.
6.2 LUX Setting (Ambient Brightness)
The LUX dial determines the ambient light level at which the detector will activate the connected light. This setting allows the light to only turn on when it's dark enough. The range is from 3 LUX (darkness) to 2000 LUX (daylight).
- Turn the dial towards the moon symbol (lower LUX value) for activation only in darker conditions.
- Turn the dial towards the sun symbol (higher LUX value) for activation even in brighter conditions (e.g., during the day for testing).
7. Maintenance
The SEBSON motion detector requires minimal maintenance. To ensure optimal performance:
- Regularly clean the sensor lens with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, or spiderwebs that may obstruct detection. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- Periodically check the mounting and wiring connections for any signs of wear or damage.
- Ensure the area around the sensor remains clear of moving objects (e.g., tree branches) that could cause false triggers.
8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on when motion is detected. |
|
|
| Light stays on continuously. |
|
|
| False triggers (light turns on without apparent motion). |
