Guidance on Power Supply Connection for Motion Sensor Functionality

Question

Hello I've already lost my patience. Despite the various patterns on the net, I don't know where to turn on the power supply. How to connect to make the motion sensor work? [/ Img]

Hello,
I have the same with one Chinese sensor. Do not ask why, because I do not know, but when I give the voltage and it is bright, the sensor will flash and will not work even if it gets dark. However, if I connect it when it is dark, everything is ok.
It looks like you connected everything ok ...
Here you still have some info about damage in this type of PIR detectors link

In mine it is like this:
- 2 X blue plus one from the power supply -> 230V "N"
- 2 x brown -> 230 "L" power supply
- red plus the other from the power supply.
Check the motion sensor thoroughly before connecting it to the power supply.
greetings

Is that it? Lights up for a split second and goes out. Connected directly under N and L lights up. Turning the knobs on the dusk and motion sensor does nothing.

Tomeksup · Answer

Set from lidl. LED quickly fell. Maybe I have something wrong? Added after 14 [minutes]: Maybe the power supply is not here?

lukaszd82 · Answer

Check if the phase is correct on the brown wire and neutral on the blue wire.

Tomeksup · Answer

At the input from the plug with 230V? Added after 5 [minutes]: Until the led lights up, there is no current flow. I can't measure. At 230V the meter does not measure me, it is probably pounded.

burur · Answer

First check whether the power supply is in good working order.

Tomeksup · Answer

The power supply is ok. Shortly after switching on to 230V it works normally. New LED - shines without a problem.

burur · Answer

After applying power, you need to wait some time for the motion sensor to adapt.

Tomeksup · Answer

How much ? How long ?

burur · Answer

Sometimes it can take up to two minutes.

lukaszd82 · Answer

Set the test to turn on the sensor in the darkest places, sensitivity to the minimum and time to half the scale (because you probably have the detector sensitivity control, lighting time and "brightness"). Connect the whole thing and wait for an hour. Check back later.
The time depends on the setting on the potentiometer. At least in 3 pieces I have. In addition, these potentiometers are not very precise and I have a maximum burning time of about 30 minutes.

Do you have (L) phase on brown? Do you have a tube? So check it . Instead of a transformer, plug in a light bulb or it will glow (in the socket, make sure you remember the rules, use cubes or other connectors / insulation)

Tomeksup · Answer

Gentlemen, as I remember, buying and connecting worked immediately. Then it stopped working. The led failed and did not shine. Led replaced. If I give 230V directly to the driver, it shines without a problem.

Hmmm, if I find a sampler, I'll check it out.

Added after 3 [minutes]:

Verify the connections again according to the photo above.

Added after 6 [minutes]:

After touching the probe, everything shines, i.e., brown, blue, red.

I have no idea what's going on.

lukaszd82 · Answer

Read the topic of control electronics diagnostics to which I gave a link earlier. There is a diagram and it was probably mentioned that in these detectors a capacitor may fall and then the electronics go crazy. Measure the capacitance of this capacitor. Details can be found in the topic indicated.

Tomeksup · Answer

I think the link got out, please again.

He is in 4th post.

Thanks, I'll start reading. I wonder how much I can understand that.
