6. Funcionament
6.1 Engegada inicial
Upon initial power-up, the switch will enter a self-test mode. The indicator LEDs may flash. Allow a few moments for the device to initialize.
6.2 Operating Modes (Motion Sensor)
The motion sensor features two operating modes:
- Occupancy Mode (Default): Provides automatic ON/OFF control for both the light and the fan based on detected motion. When motion is detected, the light and fan turn on. After no motion is detected for the set time delay, they turn off.
- Modalitat de vacant: The light must be turned ON manually. The fan operates automatically based on humidity levels or motion detection. After no motion is detected for the set time delay, the light and fan will turn off automatically.
To switch between Occupancy and Vacancy Mode: Press and hold both the light and fan buttons for 10 seconds. The green LED indicator will illuminate solid, indicating the mode has been toggled.
6.3 Humidity Sensor Operation
The humidity sensor monitors ambient humidity levels. When the humidity exceeds the preset threshold, the fan will automatically turn on. The fan will continue to run for the set minimum time or until the humidity level drops below the threshold.

6.4 Configuracions ajustables
The TDHOS5 allows for adjustment of time delay and humidity sensitivity:
- Temps de retard: 4 settings ranging from 15 seconds to 30 minutes. Refer to the specific instructions provided with the product for programming these settings.
- Nivell d'humitat: 3 adjustable levels (Low, Medium, High) to set the humidity threshold for fan activation. Refer to the specific instructions provided with the product for programming these settings.

8. Solució De Problemes
| Problema | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| Light/Fan does not turn ON. | No power, incorrect wiring, sensor obstructed, incorrect mode. | Check circuit breaker. Verify wiring connections. Ensure sensor is clear. Check operating mode (Occupancy/Vacancy). |
| Light/Fan stays ON too long or turns OFF too quickly. | Incorrect time delay setting. | Adjust the time delay setting as per the operation instructions. |
| Fan does not activate with high humidity. | Incorrect humidity level setting, sensor obstructed. | Adjust the humidity sensitivity setting. Ensure the humidity sensor is not blocked. |
| Motion sensor is too sensitive or not sensitive enough. | Sensor placement, environmental factors. | Ensure the sensor has a clear line of sight. Avoid placing near heat sources or drafts. |
| L'indicador LED no funciona. | Unitat defectuosa. | Contact customer support if all other functions are working correctly. |
