1. Introduction
This manual provides comprehensive instructions for the installation, operation, and maintenance of the Greluma ZL778LUM Ceiling Mount PIR Motion Sensor. This device is designed to detect human movement by sensing infrared radiation, automatically controlling lighting or other connected loads. It features a 360° detection range and adjustable settings for optimal performance in various indoor environments.
2. Safety Information
Please read all safety instructions carefully before installation and use. Failure to follow these instructions may result in electric shock, fire, or other hazards.
- Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical codes and regulations.
- Disconnect power at the circuit breaker before installing or servicing the sensor.
- Do not install the sensor near heat sources, air conditioning vents, or in direct sunlight, as this may affect its performance.
- Ensure the operating voltage (220-240V) matches your electrical supply.
- This product is designed for indoor use only.
3. Product Overview
The Greluma ZL778LUM is a passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor designed for ceiling mounting. It offers a wide detection area and customizable settings to suit various applications.

Figure 3.1: Front view of the Greluma ZL778LUM motion sensor.
Key Features:
- Wide Detection Range: Optimal motion detection with a 360° field of view and a maximum range of 6 meters.
- Adjustable Light Sensor (LUX): Configurable light sensitivity from 10 Lux (moon symbol) to 2000 Lux (sun symbol). This allows the sensor to operate only in darkness, or both day and night.
- Adjustable Time Delay (TIME): Set the duration the connected light remains on after motion detection, from 10 seconds to 7 minutes. The timer resets with continuous motion.
- Adjustable Sensitivity (SENS): Control the detection distance by rotating the knob clockwise to increase sensitivity or counter-clockwise to decrease it.
- Versatile Applications: Suitable for various indoor locations such as garages, corridors, basements, stairwells, kitchens, wardrobes, and attics.

5. Setup and Installation
Before proceeding with installation, ensure the power supply is disconnected at the main circuit breaker.
5.1 Mounting the Sensor
The sensor is designed for ceiling mount installation. Choose a location that provides an unobstructed view of the area to be monitored and is within the recommended installation height of 2 to 4.5 meters.
- Separate the mounting base from the sensor unit.
- Position the mounting base on the ceiling at the desired location. Mark the drilling points.
- Drill holes and insert wall plugs (if necessary for your ceiling material).
- Secure the mounting base to the ceiling using screws.
5.2 Wiring Instructions
Refer to the wiring diagram below for correct electrical connections. Incorrect wiring can damage the sensor or connected devices.

Figure 5.1: Rear view of the sensor with terminal block for electrical connections.

Figure 5.2: Detailed wiring diagram showing input (AC110-240V, N, L) and output (LOAD, A) connections.
- Connect the Neutral (N) wire from your power supply to the 'N' terminal on the sensor.
- Connect the Live (L) wire from your power supply to the 'L' terminal on the sensor.
- Connect the Neutral wire of your load (e.g., light fixture) to the 'N' terminal on the sensor (often shared with input neutral).
- Connect the Live wire of your load to the 'A' (Output) terminal on the sensor.
- After wiring, carefully attach the sensor unit to the mounted base, ensuring it is securely fastened.
Important: Ensure all connections are secure and insulated. Restore power only after the installation is complete and verified.
6. Operating Instructions and Adjustments
The Greluma ZL778LUM sensor features three adjustable knobs for customizing its operation: TIME, SENS, and LUX.

Figure 6.1: Location of the TIME, SENS, and LUX adjustment knobs on the sensor.
6.1 TIME (Time Delay) Adjustment
This knob controls how long the connected light remains on after motion is detected and then stops. The range is approximately 10 seconds to 7 minutes.
- Rotate clockwise (+) to increase the time delay.
- Rotate counter-clockwise (-) to decrease the time delay.
- If motion is detected again before the set time expires, the timer will restart.
6.2 SENS (Sensitivity) Adjustment
This knob adjusts the detection distance of the sensor.
- Rotate clockwise (+) to increase the detection distance (maximum 6 meters).
- Rotate counter-clockwise (-) to decrease the detection distance.
6.3 LUX (Light Sensor) Adjustment
This knob determines the ambient light level at which the sensor will activate. This allows you to choose whether the sensor operates during the day, at night, or both.
- "Sun" Position (Max LUX, ~2000 Lux): The sensor will operate both during the day and at night, regardless of ambient light.
- "Moon" Position (Min LUX, <3 Lux): The sensor will only activate when the ambient light level is below approximately 3 Lux, meaning it will only operate in dark conditions (e.g., at night).
- Adjust the knob to your desired light threshold.
7. Maintenance
The Greluma ZL778LUM motion sensor requires minimal maintenance.
- Ensure the sensor lens is kept clean and free from dust or obstructions. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
- Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the sensor's surface.
- Periodically check electrical connections for any signs of wear or loosening. Disconnect power before inspection.
8. Troubleshooting
If you experience issues with your Greluma ZL778LUM motion sensor, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on when motion is detected. |
|
|
| Light stays on continuously. |
|
|
| Light turns off too quickly or too slowly. |
|
|
| Sensor detects motion inconsistently or too far/close. |
