Possibility of installation

The detector is supplied with several adapters that allow installation multiple ways. Two masks are supplied for installation in flush-mounted or false-ceiling boxes to be completed with the appropriate plate supplied or the detector can be mounted in the center of the room using the special container also supplied.

Push-in terminals for a quick and safe connection of cables

The Push-in system allows fast and reliable wiring of the detector without the need to use tools. This aspect is particularly useful considering the not always easy positioning of the detector which must possibly take place in the center of the room at a distance of about 2.5-3 meters from the floor. The push-in system accepts both rigid and flexible cables, even with ferrules with a section up to 2.5 mmq.

Simple smartphone programming

Thanks to the use of Bluetooth LE (Low Energy) technology, the setting of the detectors can be done conveniently with an Android or iOS smartphone. After installing 18.51, simply download the free Finder Toolbox App from the official Google and Apple stores, and set all the parameters.

The detectors can be renamed to facilitate traceability within the building. It is possible to adjust the brightness level from 4 lux to 1000 lux, the delay time from 12 seconds to 25 minutes, and the reading sensitivity on three levels.

Each time you connect to a detector, a red LED confirms that the correct pairing has been made and all the set values are shared. The detector responds with two feedback values: the brightness read by the light sensor on board the device and the contact status if closed (ON) or open (OFF).

For security reasons, the detectors can also be locked with a selector and a 4-digit PIN to prevent modification of the parameters by unauthorized users

Limiting eyelid

The supplied limiting membrane allows to contain the controlled area in order to reduce the number of unwanted detections in the installation area.

The eyelid is applied mechanically even after installation.

The detection area thus obtained will be approximately 2 meters in case of installation at a typical height of 2.8 meters.
