How to put the ARGUS into operation
Setting the ARGUS for the function test:
1 Set brightness threshold (Figure >C) to daytime operation (sun
symbol/right stop).
2 Set the switching duration (Figure >D) to 1 s (left stop).
Aligning the ARGUS:
1 Figure *: Align the sensor head with the area to be monitored
(change the direction of rotation when you have turned it as far as the
stop).
2 Step from the edge of the detection area into it (Figure §) to check
whether the ARGUS switches the load and the functional display as
required.
Setting the brightness threshold:
Here (Figure >C) you can infinitely adjust the ambient brightness level
at which movements should be detected and a switching procedure
should be triggered.
1 Set the brightness threshold (Figure ;):
– Right stop (sun symbol): Day and night operation (approx. 1000 lux),
all movements in the area of detection will be detected, independent
of the external brightness.
– Left stop (moon symbol): Night operation (approx. 3 lux), movements
will only be detected in the hours of darkness.
Setting the switching duration:
Here (Figure >D) you can set how long the loads connected to the
ARGUS remain switched on for. When the ARGUS detects a movement,
the load (e.g. ceiling light) is switched on and stays switched on until the
set period has elapsed. Every further movement restarts the switching
duration.
