I have a PIR sensor porch light.
It doesn't seem to be functioning well e.g. not coming on when it's supposed to and vice versa.
I was never really bothered about this light until now since I'm setting up CCTV. I inherited this light when I bought the house so I don't have the instructions for the PIR settings.
I have phoned the company who made it and they said they will pop a copy of the instructions in the post but the text is very small as they are struggling to read it!
In the meantime and in case I can't read the instructions, can anyone work out what the settings are and mean? I'm not sure if they're generic, therefore, basically apply to all PIR sensors.
I want the light to come on only when it senses movement when it's dark. As said, the sensor might be faulty so I may have to replace the whole thing, it's at least 7 years old.
Thanks very much and hope you can help.
