lap 9695V - User Manual

This document describes a motion sensor, model 9695V, designed for various applications, including lighting control. The device is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, with an IP44 rating.

Function Description

The LAP 9695V is a motion sensor that detects movement and activates connected devices, typically lighting. It operates based on Passive Infrared (PIR) technology, which is more effective when movement occurs across the sensor's detection zone rather than directly towards it. The sensor has a wide detection angle of approximately 360 degrees, covering a range of up to 4.5 meters, depending on environmental conditions and mounting height.

The device features two adjustable knobs for customization:

• TIME Knob: This knob controls the duration for which the connected light remains on after motion is detected. The adjustable range is approximately 10 seconds to 4 minutes. If new motion is detected while the light is on, the timer resets, and the light stays on for the full duration from the last detected movement.
• LUX Knob: This knob sets the ambient light level at which the sensor becomes active. To set the desired ambient light level, turn the LUX knob to the "sun" position during daylight. Then, as darkness falls, slowly turn the knob clockwise towards the "moon" position until the light activates. At this setting, the device should activate at a similar level of darkness each evening.

The sensor also includes a "warm-up" phase of approximately 50 seconds after power-on, during which the light will illuminate to stabilize the PIR sensor.

A "Manual Override Mode" allows the light to be switched on for extended periods, particularly at night. This mode can be activated by toggling the integrated wall switch/circuit breaker OFF/ON/OFF/ON within 3 seconds. In this mode, the light will remain continuously on until daylight or until the manual override is canceled. To cancel the manual override and return to automatic mode, turn the wall switch/circuit breaker OFF for at least 10 seconds, then turn it back ON. The light will then turn off and revert to automatic motion sensor operation.

Important Technical Specifications

  • Fluorescent: 300W
  • LED: 300W
• Cut-out Diameter: Ø65 mm (recommended to cut slightly smaller and file to fit snugly)
• Minimum Depth for Recessed Unit: ≤3m (this seems to be a typo and likely refers to the maximum detection range, not depth)
• Wiring: Live (Brown or Red), Neutral (Blue or Black).

Usage Features

• Versatile Installation: The device is designed for recessed installation, requiring a Ø65 mm cut-out. It is crucial to ensure that the hole is cut slightly smaller than specified and then filed to achieve a snug fit.
• Environmental Considerations: The PIR sensor's effectiveness is influenced by climatic conditions; colder temperatures generally lead to more effective sensing. Seasonal adjustments to the sensor head's position may be necessary to ensure consistent year-round operation.
• Troubleshooting Guide: The manual provides comprehensive troubleshooting steps for common issues such as:
  • Light not illuminating after installation (check power supply, connections).
  • Light remaining on continuously (may be due to incorrect activation, cover sensor lens to test).
  • Sensor activating without cause or irregularly (adjust sensor head angle, avoid "wind tunnel" effects, ensure warm-up phase is complete).
  • Sensor not functioning at all (check power, wiring, bulb).
  • Sensor not functioning at night (adjust LUX setting).
  • Device activating during the day (adjust LUX setting).
  • Weak or intermittent sensor range (select appropriate installation location away from trees, vents, streetlights, traffic).
• Safety Precautions:
  • Always isolate the power supply before installation or maintenance.
  • Ensure all connections are secure and correctly wired.
  • Do not install the product where it may be covered by other items (e.g., curtains, trees).
  • Avoid installing near heat sources, ventilation ducts, or direct sunlight, which can interfere with sensor operation.
  • Do not overload the circuit beyond the specified maximum wattage.
  • If in doubt about installation or use, consult a qualified electrician.
• Warranty: The product comes with a 3-year guarantee. The warranty covers manufacturing defects but excludes normal wear and tear, misuse, lack of maintenance, accidental damage, cosmetic damage, and non-compliance with installation/maintenance instructions. Proof of purchase is required for warranty claims.

Maintenance Features

• Routine Maintenance: The manual emphasizes the importance of routine maintenance, although specific steps are not detailed. It is implied that regular checks of connections and sensor cleanliness would contribute to optimal performance.
• Cleaning: While not explicitly stated, keeping the sensor lens clean would be essential for accurate motion detection.
• End-of-Life Disposal: The product is marked with a crossed-out wheeled bin symbol, indicating that it should not be disposed of with household waste. It must be recycled at an appropriate local authority civic amenity site or through a retailer participating in a take-back scheme.
