Outside Light Level Sensor
Installation
1. Choose an accessible location for the sensor which is a good representation of the light conditions in the area
to be monitored. Avoid locating the sensor where it will be subject to direct sunlight, strong artificial lighting or
o o
dark shadowed locations. Temperature must not exceed -25 C to +70 C or humidity 0% RH to 95% RH.
2. Fix the housing to a wall using 2 x 4mm (galvanised steel or brass) using the mounting holes (85mm centre to
centre) on the enclosure. Make sure the cable entry gland is pointing towards the ground.
3. Remove the lid by turning it in an anti clockwise direction being careful not to pull the lid too far from the main
body due to the attached red sensor cable. Raise the internal circuit board slightly to disconnect the red sensor
cable from the circuit board.
4. Remove the orange terminals from the circuit board to ease cable connection.
5. Insert cable through the gland and connect as per diagram below.
6. Replace orange terminals and reconnect red sensor cable to the circuit board.
7. Replace the lid turning in a clockwise direction.
