Normally a PIR sensor has three cables.

Brown: +

Blue: -

Red: Sensor control

Connect the brown and the blue to your power in.

All lamps must be connected to blue and red.

When the sensor detects movement it "transfers" the ingoing power from the brown wire to the red wire meaning that the lamps for a given period has both + and - = the light up.

Does a PIR sensor work at night?

Yes, a PIR (Passive Infrared) sensor can work at night. It detects heat emitted by living beings and objects, so it can detect motion even in darkness as long as there are temperature differences between the surroundings and the moving object.

Is a PIR input or output?

A PIR (Passive Infrared) sensor is an input device. It detects infrared radiation emitted by objects, typically human bodies, and converts this detection into an electrical signal that can be read by a microcontroller or other processing unit. The output from the microcontroller, based on the PIR sensor's input, can then be used to trigger actions, such as turning on lights or sending alerts.

How do you adjust the timing on a pir light sensor?

To adjust the timing on a PIR (Passive Infrared) light sensor, locate the sensitivity and time delay settings, usually found on the sensor itself. Use a small screwdriver to turn the dial or adjust the settings according to the manufacturer's instructions. Typically, the time delay can be set to various durations, ranging from a few seconds to several minutes, depending on your needs. After adjustments, test the sensor to ensure it activates and deactivates as desired.

Does heat effect PIR detectors?

Yes, heat can affect PIR (passive infrared) detectors by potentially causing false alarms or reducing their sensitivity. Extreme temperature changes or direct exposure to heat sources can impact the accuracy of these detectors. It is essential to install PIR detectors away from direct sunlight or heat sources to ensure optimal performance.
