Installation and Use
1. Installation Method
The sensor can be installed using three methods:
(1) Ceiling Mounting
This method involves inserting the sensor into a ceiling. The diagram shows the sensor unit with a ceiling insert clip, a ventilation hole, and a lux sensor on its surface. The installation involves fitting the base shell into the ceiling, potentially requiring an 86 junction box (purchased separately). The diagram illustrates the sensor's placement within a ceiling structure.

(2) Mounting with Clip
This method uses a clip to attach the sensor. The diagram shows the sensor unit and the clip mechanism. The installation involves securing the base shell, potentially to an 86 junction box, before attaching the device. The diagram illustrates the sensor's placement and orientation.

(3) Wall-hanging Mounting
This method involves mounting the sensor on a wall. The diagram shows the sensor unit and its wall-mounting bracket. The installation involves fixing the base shell, possibly to an 86 junction box, before mounting the device. The diagram illustrates the sensor's placement on a wall.

2. Wiring Diagram
The wiring diagram illustrates the connections for AC power input and output. It shows:
- Input: Live Wire (L) and Neutral Wire (N)
- Output: Live Wire (L1) and Neutral Wire (N1)
- Connections: Red wire connects to the live line (L), Blue wire connects to the neutral wire (N). The output terminals are labeled L1 and N1.
Diagram shows a simplified electrical schematic with input power terminals (L, N) and output terminals (L1, N1), indicating wire color conventions (Red for Live, Blue for Neutral).
3. Notes
(1) Installation Environment Requirements
To ensure optimal detection effectiveness, avoid the following conditions:
- Sensing area with continuously moving non-human objects (e.g., pets, swinging curtains, plants near air vents).
- Sensing area with large areas of strong reflective materials, which can cause interference.
- When wall-mounted, consider external interference factors like air conditioners or ceiling fans. Ensure the sensor is mounted at least 1.5 meters above the ground.
(2) Installation Precautions
- Ensure the radar is directly facing the detection area with clear, unobstructed surroundings.
- The sensor's installation position must be secure and stable, as any movement of the radar itself can affect detection.
- Avoid placing moving or vibrating objects behind the radar, as radar waves can penetrate and detect them.

3. Add Devices
3-1. Add ZigBee Gateway
First, add a Tuya ZigBee gateway to the app. Follow the specific instructions provided with the gateway (distinguishing between wired and wireless gateways).
3-2. Add Sub-devices (Human Presence Sensor)
Ensure the sensor is in pairing state before adding. If not, press and hold the reset button for 6 seconds.
- Bluetooth Pairing (Recommended):
- Method 1: Turn on Bluetooth on your phone and add devices in Bluetooth mode.
- Method 2: Open the app's main interface with Bluetooth enabled; the device should be found automatically. Click 'Add'.
- Smart Wi-Fi Pairing: Press the reset button until the LED flashes quickly, then follow the app's instructions.
- AP Compatible Mode Pairing: Press the reset key until the device flashes slowly (pairing mode) and add according to app tips.
Screenshots show the 'Smart Life' app interface for adding devices, including options for Bluetooth pairing and Wi-Fi pairing.
Functions and Settings
1. App Main Interface
The main interface displays the current presence status (e.g., 'None', 'Presence detected').
Screenshot shows the main dashboard of the 'Smart Life' app with a section for the presence sensor, indicating its current status.
2. History
View historical detection data and events within the app.
Screenshot shows a history log or event list for the sensor.
3. Parameters Setting
Customize sensor behavior through various parameters:
- Presence Hold Time: Duration the device remains active after detecting a person (3s to 10s).
- Motion Detection Maximum Distance: Sets the maximum detection range (150 cm to 600 cm).
- Motion Detection Sensitivity: Adjusts sensitivity for moving objects (0 is most sensitive, 7 is least sensitive).
- Motionless Detection Sensitivity: Adjusts sensitivity for stationary objects (0 is most sensitive, 7 is least sensitive).
- Light Value: Sets a threshold for ambient light (10 lux, 20 lux, 50 lux, or 24h). The output switch activates when the light level is at or below this value.
- Output Duration: Sets the time the output switch remains open after activation (10s to 1800s).
- Status Indicator: Option to turn the LED indicator light on or off.
- Output Mode:
- Manual Mode: The output switch is controlled via the main interface button.
- Automatic Mode: The device automatically controls the output switch based on presence detection. The main interface button disappears in this mode.
Screenshots display various setting screens within the 'Smart Life' app, showing sliders and options for adjusting parameters like presence hold time, detection distance, sensitivity, light value, and output duration.
4. Other Functions
- Create Scene: Link the sensor's detection events to trigger other smart devices (e.g., turn on lights when human presence is detected).
- Push Notifications: Configure whether to receive pop-up notifications for device events. Device push settings affect only this device, while all app notifications affect all devices.
- Share Device: Share device control with other users.
- Clear Record: Delete historical data by removing and re-adding the device.

FAQ
Q: How to deal with the false alarm problem of the human presence sensor?
A: False alarms may be caused by environmental factors such as animals or wind movement. Adjusting the sensor's sensitivity or changing its installation location can help reduce false alarms.
Q: Is the human presence sensor easily affected by light sources?
A: Yes, intense lighting (e.g., direct sunlight or bright lamps) can interfere with the sensor. It is recommended to avoid installing the sensor near strong light sources.
Q: What obstacles should be avoided during use?
A: Avoid obstacles like pets, constantly swinging curtains, or plants positioned directly in front of air vents to ensure optimal detection performance. Obstacles can impact the sensor's detection range and sensitivity.
