Why RAB Sensors are Best for You

Smaller is better! Mini Sensor uses state-of-the-art surface mount

technology (SMT), just like cellular phones and beepers. SMT gives you

more reliability, greater RF immunity, and a compact sensor that can fit

neatly where others cannot.

Wider is better! The wide 180º view detects movement along the

entire side of a building with only one compact sensor. It will detect

people as they exit or enter. It takes several conventional sensors to

get the same coverage.

Molded is better! No leaky gaskets or bug hotels with Mini Sensor.The

hard lens is molded as part of the case.It’s vandalproof, rainproof,

bugproof and absolutely sealed.

Cautions

• All wiring MUST comply with local

electrical codes and should be

installed by a qualified electrician.

• Read entire Installation Manual

before proceeding.

TURN OFF POWER BY REMOVING

POWER FUSE OR TURNING

OFF CIRCUIT BREAKER

BEFORE INSTALLATION.

• Total lighting load must not exceed:

Relay On/Off Model: 5 amps,

500 watts incandescent quartz or

250 watt fluorescent at 120 volts.

To switch more wattage, an electri-

cian can install an additional relay.

Hi/Lo Model: 180 watts quartz

and incandescent only.

• Line Carrier Remote Control

Systems such as X-10, Leviton or

Radio Shack are incompatible with

sensors and cause false activations.

• Do not install on circuits feeding

motor loads such as kitchen appli-

ances, HVAC equipment, washer/

dryer or garage door openers.

• Sensor functions best when

movement is across its detection

pattern, not towards the sensor.

• Mount 6’-10’ high for optimum

range and direction.

Assembly and Wiring

1. Screw the threaded arm of the sen-

sor into the center hole of the mounting

plate.Sensors can be wall or ceiling

mounted.

2. If mounting on the same cover

plate as floodlight(s), screw the

threaded arm(s) of each floodlight

into the mounting plate. Leave the

locknuts and arm screws loose until

ready to aim. Always mount the

sensor below lights.

3. Bring power leads and sensor

leads into box.

4. Attach ground wire(s) to outlet

box grounding screw.

5. Strip 1/2” of insulation from all

leads. Connect as shown in Wiring

Diagram.

6.Twist on wire nuts. Secure with

electrical tape.

7. Align gasket to insure proper seal.

Fasten mounting plate with sensor

with two screws provided. Use sili-

cone sealant around all openings, if

necessary.

8. Screw in light bulbs.Turn on power.

9. Conduct Walk Test to adjust

sensor response.

Basic Wiring Diagram

Wiring more than one sensor

together is recommended only for

the experienced installer because it

becomes difficult to troubleshoot.

Single sensors that control their

own lights pinpoint movement more

accurately and operate better.

Sensors should not be installed on

a circuit that also feeds motor

loads such as HVAC equipment,

kitchen appliances, or garage door

openers. If voltage varies signifi-

cantly from 120 volts, sensors

may malfunction.

How are the Time, Sensitivity and

Photocell adjusted?

• Time Control: Sets the time that

lights will remain on after the Detection

Zone is vacated from approximately

5 seconds to 15 minutes.Use the

adjustment tool provided to turn

clockwise to increase the time.

• Factory Setting: 5-8 minutes.

• Photocell Control: For night only

operation, use the tool provided or a

small screwdriver to turn the Photocell

Control all the way counter-clockwise

(to the moon symbol).For operation in

low level lights, turn the knob all the

way clockwise (to the sun symbol).

Adjust counter-clockwise to have the

sensor come on later at dusk,

clockwise to have it come on earlier.

Hi/Lo Model: Turning photocell

control will show when the sensor

“thinks” the current ambient light

level = night, because the lights will

turn on low at 20% wattage.

Factory setting: Night Only

• Sensitivity: Increases or decreases

the responsiveness and range of the

sensor.

Control Panel:

Turn controls gently using adjust-

ment tool provided. Do not force past

stops.

How Does RAB’s Mini Sensor Work?

Sensitivity Time Control

Photocell

The Mini Sensor infrared sensor

“sees” small temperature changes

caused by the motion of people or

cars within its Detection Zone and

turns on lights automatically. It

welcomes visitors and may deter

intruders.

How long do the lights stay on?

Lights remain on as long as there is

movement within the Detection Zone.

In Hi/Lo Model, lights revert to dim.

Once the zone is vacated, lights can

be adjusted to remain on approxi-

mately 5 seconds up to 15 minutes.

The Hi/Lo Model will keep lights on at

20% wattage from dusk until dawn

and then brightens to full wattage

when movement is detected.

Will the sensor detect animals?

Mini Sensor may detect large animals.

Having animals trigger the sensor

can give property a “lived-in” look.

You can limit animal detection by

placing opaque weatherproof tape

on the lower part of the lens or using

the bottom mask on the Lens Mask

Kit provided.

What does Manual Override do?

Keep lights on by flipping the wall

switch two times within 5 seconds.

Sensor resets to auto mode at

dawn.No extra wiring needed.

Picking A Location

Location Considerations:

• Choose a location from which the

sensor can “see”all the paths of

movement that will be illuminated by

its lights.

• Mini Sensor may be wall or ceiling

mounted.

• Sensor must be below and as far

as possible away from lights.If ceiling

mounted, be sure there are no lights

below sensor.

• Sensor functions best when the

direction of expected movement

is across its detection pattern, not

towards the sensor.

• If wall mounting, locate 6-10’high

for optimum range and detection.

Lower mounting height will reduce

range.

Detection Pattern

• The sensor has a “Double Look

Down” Lens with one “Look Out”

zone and two “Look Down” zones,

for excellent detection both at long

and close range.

• Detection extends out a maximum

of 30 feet and is 180º wide.

• To reduce the Detection Pattern

length, aim the sensor down

• To reduce Detection Pattern width,

mask the sides of the lens with the

Lens Mask Kit provided or opaque

weatherproof tape.

• If sensor is mounted by a doorway

at the top of stairs, be aware that

the elevated mounting height may

extend the sensors range.

• As distance from the sensor

increases, it will take more move-

ment to be detected. For instance,

at 10 feet, a half step will be enough,

while at 30 feet, several steps will

be necessary.

3.To reduce range, use the lens

masks provided or tilt sensor down.

Repeat steps #2 and #3 until you

are satisfied with the coverage.

4.The Time Control is factory set

between 5-8 minutes.This period

starts after the movement in the

Detection Zone ceases.If less time

is desired, turn the time control

counterclockwise. For more time,

turn the control clockwise.

5.The sensor is factory set for night

only operation.To obtain full opera-

tion 24 hours per day, turn the

Photocell Control full clockwise to

the sun symbol. Intermediate set-

tings will allow the sensor to operate

earlier or later at dusk.

6.Your sensor is ready for operation.

See the Technical Tips pages if

additional help is needed.

Turn controls gently using the adjust-

ment tool provided. Do not force past

stops.

Test Period:

The sensor has a 3 minute Test

Period which allows it to be aimed

and walk tested day or night.

• For the first 30 seconds, the lights

will be turned on. During this time,

test that all fixtures and lamps

function properly.

• For the next 3 minutes, the sensor

will keep lights on for 5 seconds

each time it detects movement in its

Detection Zone.The sensor will

change to Automatic Mode after the

3 minute Test Period.

• If another 3 minute Test Period is

desired, turn the power off for at

least 10 seconds and back on again.

Walk Test:

The purpose of the Walk Test is to

check and adjust the coverage

pattern.

1. Aim the sensor approximately to

cover the area you desire.

2. Start outside the Detection Zone

and walk across the zone until the

lights go on. As distance from the

sensor increases, it will take more

movement to be detected. For

instance, at 10 feet, a half step will

be enough. while at 30 feet, several

steps will be necessary.

Technical Tips:

Lights Do Not Turn Off

1. Make sure sensor is not aimed at

something that would move or

change temperature such as waving

branches, water, air conditioners,

windows or heating vents - even on

neighboring property.You can test for

infrared sources in the area by placing

a box or bag over the sensor. Put

sensor into Test Mode. After the initial

30 seconds of the lights being on,

lights should stay off.Wave your hand

inside the bag in front of sensor.

Lights should go on and then time

out. If sensor operates properly when

covered, check items 2-6.

Problem: Sensor is triggered by

unwanted movement or heat source.

Solution: Mask lens in the direction of

the source.Move sensor or source.

2.Make sure sensor is mounted firmly

and does not move even slightly

when touched. If it moves, tighten all

screws.

3. Make sure that Mini Sensor is not

mounted on an unstable object such

as a tree or a pole that will move in

the wind.

4.Was sensor wired hot? If so,

circuitry may have been damaged.

5. Make sure sensor is not aimed

within 30 feet of a road.

Problem:Passing cars activate sensor.

Solution: A 30’safety zone between

the sensor and road is recommended

to avoid activation from passing cars.

You may also mask top of sensor

lens to reduce range or simply rotate

sensor so it is not aimed in the direc-

tion of the street.

6. Make sure heat from lights is not

triggering sensor.Make sure the

sensor is below and as far as possible

away from lights.

7. Hi/Lo Models only:

Remember

that the lights will stay on in low

mode at 20% wattage from dusk to

dawn. This is normal operation. If the

Photocell Control is turned to the

sun symbol, the lights will stay on in

low mode in low level light and night.

If you desire low mode from dusk

until dawn only, turn the Photocell

Control fully counter clockwise to the

moon symbol.

Tips 1-6 above apply only if the

lights are staying on in high full

wattage mode.

sensor

Technical Tips:

Range appears limited

1. Check that the sensor is level from

side to side and pointed at the area

you desire. If unit is tilted, part of the

Detection Zone may be high in the

air over peoples heads.

Solution: Position sensor exactly

level from side to side.

2. Check that the sensor is not

mounted too high. If mounted above

20 feet, much of the usable range

will be lost.

Solution: Mounting at 5’to 8’allows

maximum range.

3. If sensor is painted, make sure

there is no paint on the lens and that

the lens paint mask is removed.

4. Check that movement is not direct-

ly towards sensor. Sensor will see

movement across its pattern more

quickly.To fix, move the sensor.

5. Check that movement far away

and directly towards sensor is not

entirely within one Detection Pattern

finger.

Problem:Sensor will not detect until

movement crosses from one finger

into a second finger.

Solution:“Micro Adjust” sensor by tilt-

ing mounting plate 1/16”.This small

adjustment may move the zones to

allow earlier detection.

20’

Technical Tips:

Lights Do Not Turn On

1. Check that lamps and fixtures

work. Compare wiring to the Wiring

Diagram in this manual.Check that

the power is on.

2. If installing during daylight, remem-

ber that the sensor will provide a 3

minute Test Period after power is

turned on. After 3 minutes, the sensor

will switch to Automatic Mode and will

not work during daylight if the

Photocell Control is turned to or near

the night only position (fully counter

clockwise to the moon symbol).

If you require another 3 minuteTest

Period, turn the power off for at least

10 seconds and back on again.

If you require the sensor to operate

both in low level light and at night,

turn the Photocell Control knob

clockwise to the sun symbol.

3. Check that lights from other

sources, such as adjacent porch

lights, garden lights, streetlights or

lights from inside the house are not in

the sensor’s view. See #1 under

“Lights Turn Off Too Quickly”.

4.Was sensor wired hot? If so,

circuitry may have been damaged.

5. If sensor is painted, make sure

there is no paint on the lens and that

the lens paint mask is removed.

Lights Turn Off

Too Quickly

1. Check if sensor is being “tricked”

by reflected light.If lights shine or

reflect into the photocell, (located

behind the lens), the unit will go on

briefly and turn off thinking it is

daytime.

Problems:

Lights reflect into photocell or

lights shine directly into photocell.

Solution: Adjust Photocell Control

slightly clockwise, toward the sun

symbol.This allows the sensor to

function in brighter ambient light

conditions. Alternatively, move the

lights or mask the lens in the

direction of the lights or reflections.

If the problem persists, it may be

necessary to increase the length

of the sun shield over the sensor

using weatherproof tape or some

other material.

2. Check if “R” lamps, “A” lamps or

self-ballasted PL lamps are being

used in a non-enclosed lampholder

that can be “seen”by the sensor. If

so, switch to reflector PAR floodlight

lamps or Quartz floods so the sen-

sor is not affected by stray light.If

using PAR floodlights, consider using

lower wattage, energy saving lamps.

Self ballasted compact fluorescent

lamps may cause the sensor to

cycle on and off.

Technical Tips:

Lights Turn On and Off Incorrectly

5. Make sure lights are not visible

from or reflecting back into sensor.

Check for white or reflective surfaces

close to the sensor.

Solution: Aim sensor away from

lights and reflective objects or mask

the lens in the direction of the light

or reflection.

6. Heavy rain, snow or high winds

may activate the sensor occassionally.

Solution: Reduce sensitivity control

settings, mount in a more protected

area and/or mask the lens if this is a

constant problem.

7. Make sure sensor is not aimed

within 30’of a road or sidewalk.

Passing cars will activate sensor.

Solution: Mask the top of the lens to

reduce Detection Pattern Length.

8. Self ballasted PL lamps may

cause cycling (on-off).

9. Check solutions 1,2,3,5 & 6 under

“Lights Do Not Turn Off” (Page 10).

1. Make sure the sensor is installed

on its own dedicated circuit free of

motor loads such as HVAC

equipment, kitchen appliances or

garage door openers.

2. It is not recommended to wire

sensors in parallel.More than one

sensor wired together makes them

difficult to troubleshoot.Disconnect

multiple sensors and test separately.

3. Keep all people completely out of

the detection pattern to make sure

the sensor is not detecting them.

4. Make sure sensor is located

below and as far as possible from

its lights.Heat from the lights may

trigger the sensor.

Solution: Move sensor below and

away from the lights.

Technical Tips:

Lights Turn On For Unknown Reasons

1. Lights may turn on occassionally

during rain, snow and windstorms

because the sensor is detecting

changes in temperature.If this is a

constant problem, mount the sensor

in a more protected area.

2.Tilt the sensor lower - it may be

seeing distant objects moving.

3.You may not be aware that animals

have triggered sensor. Check sensor

aiming to reduce nuisance triggering

or mask the lower part of the lens

with opaque weatherproof tape.

4.The sensor may turn on

occassionally during voltage surges.

5. A possible source of “mysterious”

sensor activations are strong local

radio signals.Check for nearby CB,

Ham, VHF radio transmitters or

Cellular telephones.The sensor may

be activated, but will not be perma-

nently impaired by these signals.

5. Check other solutions mentioned

under on pages 12 &13.
