Instruccions de funcionament

The GYQ27-W motion sensor offers several adjustable settings to customize its operation.

Ajust de la configuració

  • Configuració de l'hora: The sensor allows you to set the duration the light remains on after motion is detected. Common settings are 1, 3, or 10 minutes. Refer to the sensor's physical controls for specific adjustment methods (e.g., dial, switch).
  • Mode de prova: A 5-second test mode is available for initial setup and aiming. In this mode, the light will turn on for approximately 5 seconds each time motion is detected, regardless of the set time.
  • Funció de la posta de sol a l'alba: The integrated photocell automatically prevents the light from activating during daylight hours, conserving energy. The sensor will only activate the light when ambient light levels fall below a certain threshold.
  • Ajust de sensibilitat: Some models may include a sensitivity dial to adjust the range or sensitivity of motion detection. Adjust this to prevent false triggers from small animals or distant objects.

Anulació manual

To keep the light on continuously for a period, you can typically activate the manual override function. This is often done by quickly turning the light switch OFF and then ON within a few seconds. The light will then stay on until the override period expires or the switch is cycled again. Consult the specific instructions that came with your sensor for precise manual override steps.
