FAQs

What is the maximum detection range of the CR-3 MINI?

The motion detection range is up to 9 meters, but this can vary depending on the installation height.

Can this sensor be used with LED lights?

Yes, the GTV CR-3 MINI is compatible with LED lights, as well as incandescent and halogen lighting, provided the total load does not exceed 1000W.

Is the operating time adjustable?

Yes, the operating time can be smoothly adjusted from 7 seconds to 3 minutes.

What is the power consumption of the sensor?

The sensor consumes 0.45W during operation and only 0.1W in standby mode.

What is the detection angle?

The sensor offers a full 360-degree detection angle.

Can I set the sensor to only work at night?

Yes, you can adjust the ambient light sensitivity (`LUX`) to set the threshold at which the sensor activates, allowing it to function only when it's dark.

What certifications does the CR-3 MINI have?

The sensor holds RoHS and CE certifications.

Troubleshooting

Sensor does not activate connected device.

Check the 230V power supply. Verify that the load does not exceed 1000W and is compatible (not fluorescent). Ensure the ambient light setting (`LUX`) allows for activation at the current light level. Confirm that the operating time is not set too low.

Device stays on constantly.

Verify that there is continuous motion detected within the sensor's range. Check the `TIME` adjustment; it might be set to its maximum duration. Ensure the sensor's lens is clean and unobstructed.

Device activates too frequently or randomly.

Adjust the `LUX` sensitivity to prevent daytime activation if not desired. Reduce the detection range by slightly repositioning the sensor if it's picking up unwanted motion. Ensure no heat sources or moving objects are directly in the sensor's path.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Comprehensive 360-degree detection for full room coverage.
  • Adjustable settings for operating time and ambient light sensitivity.
  • Suitable for high-load applications up to 1000W.
  • Energy-efficient with low standby power consumption.
  • Durable design with a wide operating temperature range.

Cons

  • Not compatible with fluorescent lamps.
  • Detection range is dependent on installation height.
  • Requires a 230V power supply, limiting placement options.
  • Manual adjustment may require some initial setup effort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure power is disconnected before installation.
  2. Mount the sensor at the recommended height (refer to installation manual for optimal range).
  3. Wire the sensor according to the diagram provided in the product manual, connecting it to the 230V power supply and the device to be controlled.
  4. Adjust the `TIME` dial for desired operating duration (7 seconds to 3 minutes) and the `LUX` dial for ambient light sensitivity (3-2000 lux).

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with devices requiring a 230V power supply.
  • Maximum load is 1000W. Not compatible with fluorescent lamps.
  • Suitable for LED, incandescent, and halogen lighting.

Care:

  • Keep the sensor lens clean using a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Ensure the sensor is not obstructed by any objects to maintain optimal detection range.
  • Operating temperature range is -20°C to +40°C. Avoid exposing to extreme temperatures outside this range.
