5. Setup u Installazzjoni
5.1 Choosing a Location:
- Mount the sensor at a height of 1.8m to 2.2m for optimal detection.
- Avoid mounting near heat sources (e.g., air vents, direct sunlight) or objects that may cause rapid temperature changes, as this can lead to false triggers.
- Kun żgur li ż-żona ta' skoperta hija ħielsa minn ostakli.

After wiring, close the sensor casing u rrestawra l-enerġija.
6. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
The Maclean MCE385 motion detector features two adjustable knobs on its underside: TIME and LUX.

Figure 8: TIME and LUX adjustment knobs.
6.1 TIME Adjustment:
The TIME knob controls how long the connected light or device remains on after motion is detected and the detection area is clear. Rotate the knob to set the desired delay:
- Minimum setting: Approximately 10 seconds (fully counter-clockwise).
- Maximum setting: Approximately 15 minutes (fully clockwise).

Figure 9: TIME adjustment knob.
6.2 LUX Adjustment:
The LUX knob determines the ambient light level at which the sensor will activate the connected device. Rotate the knob to set the desired light sensitivity:
- Sun symbol (fully clockwise): The sensor will operate both day and night (high LUX sensitivity).
- Moon symbol (fully counter-clockwise): The sensor will only operate in low light conditions (e.g., dusk or night, low LUX sensitivity).

Figure 10: LUX adjustment knob.
6.3 Walk Test:
After installation and initial settings, perform a walk test to verify the detection area and functionality:
- Set the TIME knob to minimum (10s) and the LUX knob to maximum (sun symbol) for daytime testing.
- Walk through the desired detection area. The connected light should turn on.
- Step out of the detection area. The light should turn off after the set time delay.
- Adjust the sensor's angle or location if the detection area is not satisfactory.
- Once satisfied, set the TIME and LUX knobs to your preferred operational settings.
7. Manutenzjoni
- Tindif: Regularly clean the sensor lens with a soft, dry cloth to ensure optimal performance. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Spezzjoni: Periodically check the wiring connections and mounting for any signs of wear or damage.
- Qawwa: Disconnect power before performing any cleaning or maintenance.
