2 - ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Important: the installation and electrical connections of
devices and equipment must be performed by qualified
personnel in conformity with current standards and
regulations.
WARNING: in case of particularly reactive loads (e.g.
fluorescent or HID or electronic lamps, etc.) or with a cosj
value lower than in-dicated in the technical data, the relay
could suffer damage. It is advisable in such instances to use a
suitably rated external or solenoid switch.
.
The manufacturer does not assume any responsibility
concerning the use of the products, which must conform to
particular environmental and/or installation standards.
CAUTION: the electrical connection to the separate
probe must be made by a twin cable that has a minimum
external diameter of 4 mm, a maximum of 8 mm
and with the section of each conductor 0.75 ÷ 1.5 mm .
2.2 - Installation of the probe
Installation on wall or pole using the fixing bracket provided.
• Fix the bracket to the wall
• Make the electrical connections to the probe
• Insert the body of the probe onto the bracket until it locks (the tooth snaps on the bracket)

CAUTION: once the connection has been completed, the electrical parts will be live: do not open
the protective cover without first disconnecting the 230 V~ supply.

When the light intensity detected by the probe is lower than the value set
on the "lux adjustment" knob, the relay will close the contact after a brief
delay (about 15 sec) called T on.
On the contrary, when the light intensity detected by the probe exceeds
the value set on the "lux adjustment" knob, the relay will open the contact
after a brief delay (about 30 sec) called T off.

2.1 - Electrical connections (
Turn off the mains supply)
•
Connect the 230 V~ supply to the L (line) and N (neutral) terminals.
•
Connect the load as indicated in figure:
- neutral (N) directly to the lamp
- terminal 1 to the line (L)
- terminal 2 to the lamp.
•
Connect the wires coming from the probe to terminals 3 and 4 of the twilight switch.
