TheRK-PIR is a presence Sensor for use with the Rako wireless system. It is supplied with an RK-BP battery pack. Features include: Threemodes Always(nottime-based) Timerangemode Sunlight mode Webpageprogrammable Absencedetection Theintroduction of programming through the HUB via the webpages using ‘Hub managed mode’, enables time-dependent automatic Scene selection, allowing for different Scenes at different times of the day.

2Installation Ensure that the RK-PIR has been added to Rasoft Pro and configured in the RK-HUB before installing. Usinganappropriate hole saw, make a Step 1 48mmcutoutintheceiling. EnsuretheRK-PIRissecurely fastened Step 2 to the RK-BP via the two-pin connector. Raisethefixings on the RK-PIR and Step 3 insert them into the ceiling cutout. Ensurethereis adequate clearance and nothing is obstructing the springs. 3AddingtheRK-PIRtoRasoftPro - Confirmthatthere is a project open, the Rooms have been added to the system, andthere is a tick box in the communication devices, this can be found at the bottom right-hand side of Rasoft Pro. - Place the bottom side of the RAMPI on the domed section of the RK-PIR, the green LEDontheRAMPIwillilluminate. Keep the RAMPI on the RK-PIR. RK-PIR Manual Version 1.0.0

5AddingaController TheController defines when the Sensor turns on lights and when it doesn't; this can be conditional to the time of day, keypad inputs, or the status of other Sensors. - To get to the Controller, press ‘Back’ on the Sensor commissioning page. - Select ‘Configure Controllers’. - Select ‘Add’ at the top right to create a new Controller. - Select the Room and Channel the Sensor will control. - Select the Sensor which the Controller will manage. - Select a template, the following options are available: Standard TheSensor is operational all day and night, on movement, the Controller will switch to scene 1, and on timeout, the Controller will switch Scene Off. Day/Night TheSensor is operational on different Scenes at different times of the day; between Dawn andDuskScene1istheOnCommand,andbetweenDuskandDawnScene4istheOn command.DawnandDusktimeschangethroughouttheyearautomatically.

Controller Description Give the Controller an accurate description to make the programming clear and easy to understand. 2. Room TheRoomoftheController, the Sensors in the section below will affect the Room selected. RK-PIR Manual Version 1.0.0

3. Channel TheChannelwithin the Room, with “Whole Room” set, the Controller will switch the whole Room;withasingle Channel set, the Controller will switch a single Channel. 4. Sensors Sensors assigned to the Controller will be shown in this section. Multiple Sensors can be added to a single Controller allowing a Room to be controlled from by multiple Sensors. 5. AddSensors Commissioned Sensors will appear in a list when “Add Sensors” is selected. 6. Time Range Configuration Overview Adjust the parameters of the Controllers “On Command” and “Off Command”. 7TimeRangeConfiguration Thetimerangeconfiguration determines when the PIR will activate on movement and when it will time out, once this occurs, the ‘Off Command’ will trigger if it is enabled. RK-PIR Manual Version 1.0.0

1. Always TheSensor will always activate the "Set On Command” on movement detection. 2. Time Range TheSensor will activate between specific times as set by the 24-hour clock. 3. Sunlight Mode TheSensor will activate based on the Dawn/Dusk or Sunrise/Sunset conditions. 4. Exit Delay When‘Off’ is pressed for the Room, the Sensor will not activate the lights on movement for 30seconds. This option prevents unintentional activation if the user is detected while switching the lights off via the switch. 5. Absence Mode Ensure ‘On command’ is disabled in Absence Mode Switch the lights off after a specified period if no movement has been detected. This is commonlyusedtopreventlights from being left on unintentionally. Keypads no longer override the PIR Controller. 6. Timeout Thecountdowntimercanbesetbyhours,minutesandseconds.Whenmovementis detected, the countdown begins, upon further movement detection, the countdown timer resets, once the timer countdown has finished, the ‘Off Command’ is activated. 7. Set On Command WhentheSensorhasdetectedmovement,the‘OnCommand’willbeactivatedbythe Controller, provided that the conditions are met, such as ‘After Dusk’ or ‘After 13:00’. 8. Set Off Command WhentheController has timed out, the ‘Off Command’ will be activated. The ‘Off Command’canbeanySceneincluding‘Off’. RK-PIR Manual Version 1.0.0

Appendix 1: Sensor Commands and Controller State Sensor Commands TheRK-PIR can send one of three commands to the Controller every 30 seconds. Start Motion Whenmovementisfirstdetected,theSensorwill send a Start Motion command to the Controller. The Controller logic will determine whether or not to send the ‘On Command’ based on the time conditions and keypad override state. Continue Motion OncetheSensorhassent‘Start Motion’, when further motion is detected, a ‘Continue Motion’ is transmitted within 30 seconds from the Sensor.

EndMotion WhenmovementisnolongerbeingdetectedbytheSensor,an‘EndMotion’commandwill betriggered by the Sensor to the Controller. This will start the Controller timeout, once this reaches the end, the ‘Off Command’ will be triggered on the Controller. Live Status Live status shows the current state of the Controller. Trigger Motion Forces the Controller to send the ‘On command’ as if movement has been detected on a Sensor. Trigger Timeout Forces the Controller to begin the timeout; once the timeout has been reached, the Controller will send the ‘Off Command’. RK-PIR Manual Version 1.0.0

Disable Controller Disables the Controller indefinitely; this will not remove the Controller, to delete the Controller, select ‘Delete’ at the bottom of the Controller menu. Enabled If the Controller has been disabled, this will show as 'Disabled'; the default setting is ‘Enabled’. Last Event Thelast time a Sensor detected movement, and updated the Controller. State Thecurrent state of the Controller, there are four states: OnOverride WhenaSceneorLevelof1%orhigherissentfromtheRoomoftheControllerwhichisnot from a Sensor, the Controller will enter an override state. When an ‘Off’ or Level 0% is sent from the Room, the Controller will no longer be On Override. On MovementhasbeendetectedbytheSensor,andtheController‘OnCommand’hasbeen triggered. Timeout TheSensor is no longer detecting movement; the Controller Timeout has started. Off OncetheController Timeout reaches the end and no movement has been detected during the timeout period, the ‘Off Command’ will be triggered. RK-PIR Manual Version 1.0.0

Appendix 2 PIR Performance Data: Technical Specifications: Detection area (2.5m): Wehighlyrecommendthattesting at the intended location is conducted before installation to ensure that the expected results are achieved. If the application requires sensitive operation with a coverage of (8m+) we highly recommend that multiple RK-PIR Sensors are installed as required. RK-PIR Manual Version 1.0.0

Appendix 3 Installation Considerations PIR Sensors only provide binary on/off information back to the Rako system. In context, this meanstheydonotprovideinformation about the location of the object in view or what the object is, which means consideration of the environmental factors which could trigger the Sensor are of paramount importance in successfully implementing a PIR Sensor to the customer's requirements. Thefunction of PIR Sensors gives rise to certain limitations about their operation: PIRSensorscannotdetect stationary objects. PIRSensorsaresensitive to environmental conditions which can cause false triggering and other undesirable effects: Avoidlocating the RK-PIR in areas intermittently affected by direct sunlight. DONOTlocateaPIRinanareawithforcedairventilation, either in the Roomorceiling void above the location of the RK-PIR. Sensingareas are non-uniformly distributed, causing areas of higher and lower sensitivity, requiring larger motions to trigger the Sensor in some areas than others. PIRSensorsaremoresensitive to tangential motion than radial motion at the periphery of the sensing area. Isometric view of the RK-PIRs field of view: Thesensitivity at the extremities of the field of view shown above will have reduced sensitivity comparedtothecentre. Expect reduced performance at the extremities of the field of view of the Sensor. RK-PIR Manual Version 1.0.0
