Overview

1. Function Description
2. Usage Features
3. Maintenance Features

The Excel Life™ Wall Plate-Mounted Movement Sensor is a device designed to automate lighting and other loads based on detected movement and ambient light levels. It comes in two models: the EM803PIR and the EM803PIRS, offering varying levels of functionality.

Function Description

The primary function of the movement sensor is to detect movement within its range and, in conjunction with ambient light levels, control connected loads.

Auto Mode: In this mode, the load will turn on when movement is detected and will remain on for a set period after the last detected movement. This operation is contingent on the ambient light level being below a user-defined threshold. If the light level is above this threshold, the load will not turn on unnecessarily. The time-out period and the lux threshold are both user-adjustable.

Manual Override Mode (EM803PIRS only): This advanced mode, available only on the EM803PIRS model, allows for manual control of the load. If the push button is pressed while the load is off, the load will turn on. Conversely, if the button is pressed while the load is on, the load will turn off. In either scenario, the movement sensor is temporarily disabled for 5 minutes. After this 5-minute period, the EM803PIRS automatically reverts to Auto Mode. To access this feature, the EM803PIRS model must be installed with an additional push button, either an EM800SLAVE or EM770X.

Usage Features

The movement sensor offers several user-configurable features to tailor its operation to specific needs.

Lux Setting: This feature allows the user to set the ambient light level threshold at which the movement sensor will operate in Auto Mode. This prevents the load from turning on when there is sufficient natural light in the room. The threshold can be adjusted using a small flat-head screwdriver. Turning the knob anticlockwise lowers the threshold, meaning the sensor will operate in brighter conditions. Turning it clockwise raises the threshold, requiring darker conditions for activation. The adjustable range is approximately 1 lux (very dark) to 2000 lux (bright daylight). For continuous operation in normal daylight levels, the knob should be turned fully clockwise.

Time Setting: The time setting determines how long the load remains on after the last detected movement in Auto Mode. This period is also adjustable with a small flat-head screwdriver. Turning the knob anticlockwise shortens the time period, while turning it clockwise lengthens it. The adjustable range for the time-out period is approximately 5 seconds to 30 minutes.

LED Indicator: The device includes an LED indicator that provides visual feedback on its status.

• Upon initial power application, the LED flashes red, blue, and purple for 5 seconds during a warm-up period before normal operation begins.
• The LED turns on when the load is active and off when the load is inactive.
• If the load is already on, the LED will blink momentarily when additional movement is detected, indicating that the timer has been reset.
• During the final 30 seconds before the timer expires, the LED will flash quickly. If the time setting is less than 30 seconds, the LED will start flashing as soon as the load turns on.
• For the EM803PIR model, the LED indicator color is always red.
• For the EM803PIRS model, the default LED color is red, but it can be toggled between red and blue by pressing and holding the push button for 10 seconds.

Movement Sensor Range: The sensor has a detection area of approximately 5 meters, with a 40-degree angle. This diagram applies to both horizontal and vertical planes, indicating a wide coverage area for movement detection.

Model Differences:

• EM803PIR: This is the basic model, offering Auto Mode functionality only.
• EM803PIRS: This is the advanced model, featuring both Auto and Manual Override Modes, as well as a user-selectable LED indicator color. To utilize the additional features of the EM803PIRS, it must be installed in conjunction with an EM800SLAVE or EM770X push button (sold separately).

Maintenance Features

The device is designed for minimal maintenance, with specific guidelines to ensure its longevity and proper functioning.

Cleaning: The product should only be cleaned with a damp cloth. Harsh cleaning agents and solvents should not be used as they may damage the device.
