Motion Detector 1.1 m / 2.2 m

Automatic Mode

The motion detector detects heat motion caused by people, animals, or objects.

Operation

Operating Concept

Electrical equipment must only be installed and assembled by a qualified electrician in accordance with the relevant installation standards, regulations, directives, and safety and accident prevention directives of the country. Failure to comply with these installation instructions may result in damage to the device, fire, or other hazards. Due to its detection behaviour, the device is not suitable for use in burglary detection or alarm systems. These instructions are an integral component of the product and must be retained by the end user.

Design and Layout of the Device

Figure 1 illustrates the design and layout of the device, detailing the following components:

• (1) Insert (see "Accessories", not in scope of delivery)
• (2) Frame (not included)
• (3) Cover
• (4) Motion detector design cover
• (5) Module retaining screw (not for Berker R.1/R.3/R.8)
• (6) Interface between insert/application module

Function

Correct Use

Automatic switching of lighting depending on heat motion and ambient brightness. Application module for switch insert, dimmer insert, or motion detector extension unit. Only suitable for use in indoor areas with no drip and no spray water.

Product Characteristics

• Integrated button for selecting operating modes and special functions.

Operation on Switch Insert

The light will be switched on for a fixed delay time of 3 minutes if movements are detected in the detection area and the set brightness threshold is undershot. Each detected movement restarts the delay time. The light will be switched off after 3 minutes if no additional movements are detected.

Operation on Dimmer Insert

The light will be switched on to the switch-on brightness level for a fixed delay time of 3 minutes if movements are detected in the detection area and the set brightness threshold is undershot. Each additional movement in the detection area restarts the delay time. After the delay time elapses, the lighting will be dimmed to 50% of the switch-on brightness level and will remain at this brightness level for 30 seconds (switch-off pre-warning). Any motion detected during the switch-off pre-warning restarts the delay time and restores the switch-on brightness level. The light will be switched off if no motion is detected any longer in the detection area and the set delay time and the switch-off time have elapsed.

Operation on Extension Unit

If motion is detected in the detection area of the extension unit, the extension unit insert sends a pulse to the main unit and then locks for 10 seconds. Recording takes place independently of the brightness on the extension unit. If motion is still detected after 10 seconds, a pulse is sent again. Upon receiving an extension unit pulse, the main unit switches on the light for the delay time, if the set brightness threshold is undershot. Every further extension unit pulse restarts the delay time of the main unit.

Performance after Mains Breakdown/Return of Mains Supply

• Mains breakdown shorter than 0.2 s: The function is not impaired.
• Mains breakdown longer than 0.2 s: There is no function during the mains breakdown. The current configuration is saved in non-volatile memory.
• Return of mains supply: The application module executes an initialization for approx. 15 s, during which the lighting will be switched on. Motion detection starts thereafter. If no motion is detected during the first 5 s, the lighting is switched off. The saved configuration is loaded from memory. During this period, local operation via the button or extension unit can be used.

Operation and Display Elements

Figure 2 shows the operation and display elements:

• (7) Button
• (8) Status LED

Operation is executed by pushing the button (7) on the motion detector:

• A short press of the button switches the operating modes. The operating mode is displayed via the status LED behind the optics cover of the motion detector.
• Keeping the button pressed activates special functions. Selection of the special functions is supported by the LED display (Figure 3).

Selecting the Operating Mode

Briefly press the button repeatedly until the desired operating mode is selected. The status LED indicates the selected operating mode (see Table 1). Switching the operating mode finishes the party function or presence simulation, if these functions were previously active.

Disabling/Enabling Operating Mode Selection via Button

Keep the button pressed for more than 15 seconds, until the status LED is flashing green (Figure 3). Selection of the operating mode via the button is disabled. To re-enable, keep the button pressed for more than 15 seconds until the status LED is flashing green again.

Key Features

• Lockable integrated button.
• Operating mode - automatic mode, permanent ON, permanent OFF can be selected.
• Display operating mode via LED.
• Potentiometer for adjusting response brightness and detection sensitivity.
• Adjustable detection angle for adapting the detection area.
• Additional adjustment of the response brightness via Teach-In function.
• Party function.
• Presence simulation.
• Operation on motion detector extension units.
• Optional extension unit operation via installation button.

Switching on the Lighting via Push-button Extension Unit or Changing Switch-on Brightness Level

Optionally, the lighting can be switched on via a mechanical push-button extension unit. For extension unit operation, the lighting is switched on independently of the set brightness threshold. When using the dimmer inserts, the last set brightness level will be saved as the switch-on brightness level.

Activating/Interrupting Party Function

The party function switches the lighting on for 2 hours. During this time, no extension unit commands are executed. In the case of motion detectors on extensions, activating the party function causes cyclical transmission of the switch-on pulse every 10 s. However, the light is only switched on when the brightness threshold is undershot at the main unit.

Activation: Keep the button pressed for more than 5 seconds, until the status LED is flashing red (Figure 3). The lighting is switched on for 2 hours, indicated by the status LED flashing red. Upon elapse of 2 hours, the motion detector switches to Auto operation mode.

Interruption: Briefly press the button. The party function will be cancelled, the motion detector returns to Auto operation mode.

Activating/Deactivating Presence Simulation

During operation, the motion detector counts the motion detections in one full hour and saves the result. With active presence simulation, at the beginning of the hour with the most detections saved, the light will be switched on for the duration of the delay time, even if no motion is detected. During the presence simulation, presence detection and extension unit commands will continue to be executed normally. The presence simulation cannot be activated via the extension unit.

Activation: Keep the button pressed for more than 20 seconds, until the status LED is slowly flashing red (Figure 3). The presence simulation is active, indicated by the status LED lighting orange. The motion detector switches the lighting on at the saved time.

Deactivation: Briefly press the button. The presence simulation will be disabled, the motion detector returns to Automode.

Special Functions and LED Display

Figure 3 illustrates the selection of special functions and their corresponding LED displays:

• Party function: Hold button > 5 s, LED red.
• Keylock: Hold button > 15 s, LED green.
• Presence simulation: Hold button > 20 s, LED red (slow flash).
• Teach-In function: Hold button > 10 s, LED orange.

Setting Response Brightness via Teach-In Function

The response brightness is the ambient brightness value saved in the motion detector; when this value is undershot, the motion detector switches the connected load if movements are detected. Via the Teach-In function, the current ambient brightness is saved as the response brightness. Teach-In cannot be carried out on the extension unit.

Procedure: The load must be switched off. Keep the button pressed for more than 10 seconds, until the status LED is flashing orange (Figure 3). The motion detector detects the current ambient brightness and saves it as response brightness. Teach-In overwrites the response brightness set on the potentiometer. Setting via the potentiometer again overwrites the Teach-In figure.

Setting the Load

If the switching performance is not satisfactory after commissioning, a load setting must be made. A load setting is required each time the load is changed.

Procedure: Switch off the load. Keep the button pressed for more than 25 seconds, until the status LED is slowly flashing orange. Release the button. The device is in selection mode; the connected load blinks once. If no further actions are performed within the next 10 seconds, the dimmer switches to normal operation.

Table 3b: Setting the Load on a Universal Switch or Dimmer Insert (Up to Version R1.1)

Note on Load Settings: Load switching/dimming phases may occur during automatic settings. For Table 3a, the load blinks once more as confirmation and then goes out. For Table 3b, the load blinks 5 times for confirmation.

Installation and Electrical Connection

Selecting Installation Location

Observe motion orientation: a distinction is made between "direct approach" and "transverse motion". Motions transverse to the motion detector can be detected better than motions toward the motion detector (Figures 4, 6, 7). Select an installation location that is free of vibration. Vibrations can cause undesired switching. Avoid sources of interference in the detection area (Figures 6 and 7). Sources of interference, e.g., heating elements, ventilation systems, air conditioners, and lamps that are cooling down can cause undesired switching (Figure 4). To avoid disturbing influences, the detection angle can be restricted (see Restriction of the detection area).

Assembly of the Device

Information on electrical connection can be found in the operating instructions for the insert. Attach the cover bottom part (3) together with frame (2) to a suitable insert (1) and establish a connection between insert and the application module via the interface (6). As soon as voltage is supplied to the application module, the status LED indicates the compatibility with the insert used.

Status LED Display

• LED blinks green (approx. 5 s until motion detection is active): Compatible
• LED flashes red for 5 s: Not compatible

If available, fix dismantling protection with screw (5). After commissioning, click the design cover (4) into place on the application module (3).

Commissioning

Setting the Detection Performance

Test mode must be used to test the detection performance. In test mode, the motion detector works independent of brightness. Each detection switches the lighting and the status LED on for 3 seconds. The motion detection will then be deactivated for 2 seconds. The motion detector is connected and ready for operation.

Procedure: Set the response brightness potentiometer (Figure 5, 13) to the 'T' position. Leave the detection area and observe the switching behaviour. If the motion detector switches on without motion in the detection field, then sources of interference (see Installation location) are present or the sensitivity is set too high. Reduce the sensitivity if necessary and blank out sources of interference by adjusting the detection angle or removing them. Check the detection area using a detection test and adjust if necessary. If the detection area is too small, it can be extended via motion detector extension units (see accessories).

Setting the Response Brightness

The response brightness is the ambient brightness value saved in the motion detector; when this value is undershot, the motion detector switches the connected load if movements are detected. The response brightness can be set between approx. 5 Lux and 150 Lux (factory setting), or set to daytime operation (☀️). The ☀️ symbol stands for independent of brightness switching. The response brightness can be variably adjusted in the intermediate areas. In order to control the lighting in stairwells in accordance with DIN EN 12464-1, 2003-3, select the 150 Lux potentiometer setting. Turn the response brightness potentiometer (Figure 5, 13) to the desired position. To save the current ambient brightness as response brightness, use the Teach-In function (see Setting the Response Brightness via Teach-In Function). As the brightness evaluation only takes place via the main unit, there is no need to set the response brightness on extension units.

Setting the Sensitivity

Detection is factory-set to maximum sensitivity. If there are frequent incorrect detections, the sensitivity can be reduced. Turn the sensitivity potentiometer (Figure 5, 9) to the desired position.
