Troubleshooting

Sensor not detecting movement

Ensure the sensor is powered on. Check that the detection range and sensitivity are appropriately set. Verify that there are no obstructions in the sensor's field of view.

Lights do not turn off automatically

Adjust the switch-off delay timer to a shorter duration. Check if manual override is engaged. Ensure continuous movement detection is not occurring.

Inconsistent light activation

Recalibrate the ambient light sensor. Adjust the detection angle and range. Ensure the mounting height is within the recommended range (0.8-1.2 meters).

Smart home integration not working

Verify Wi-Fi connection for the hub or device. Ensure the sensor is correctly paired with the smart home system. Check for firmware updates for the sensor and the smart home hub.
