ESYLUX CUSTOMERS ABOUT DEFENSOR:
The DEFENSOR motion detectors can be relied upon in every situation thanks to time-dependent operating modes and intelligent vandalism and tamper protection. Tailored configuration of fields of detection and variants with switch-off delay times based on motion direction detection mean that this device can be controlled even more precisely, while the many mounting options ensure great flexibility.

The DEFENSOR twilight switches reliably and discreetly increase safety around the building. The T variant features time-dependent operating modes that allow for highly customisable configurations. The twilight switches therefore guarantee flexibility and energy efficiency, as well as protecting the relay during the operation of LED lights, for instance, thanks to zero-cross switching.

Example: motion detectors
The internal clock of the DEFENSOR motion detectors allows them to deviate from the standard set operating mode during two time windows within a 24-hour period. The modes available to choose from are: fully automatic, semi-automatic, twilight switch and intentional switch on/switch off of the lighting. The detectors also know the date, which means they can switch automatically between daylight-saving time and standard time.
In fully automatic mode:
The 280°/230° variants offer increased protection, convenience and energy efficiency.
In twilight switch mode:
In this example, the lighting (shown in red) stays switched on during opening hours whenever there is insufficient daylight and when no movement is detected between 9:00 and 19:00.
Example: twilight switch
There are various scenarios in which it may be necessary to deviate from the standard operating mode of a twilight switch. Thanks to an internal clock and parameterisation using the ESY-Pen and ESY-App, it is possible to switch the lighting on or off during two time windows regardless of the amount of daylight with the T variant.
In the standard operating mode:
The T variant switches the lighting on when it gets dark and only switches it off again the next morning once there is sufficient daylight.
Twilight switch mode deactivated:
In this example, the lighting (shown in red) is intentionally deactivated between 22:00 and 06:00 to reduce energy consumption and also reduce night-time light pollution.
Requirements in this area can vary greatly — e.g. depending on whether someone is entering or leaving the premises. The 280° and 230° variants can therefore identify a total of four motion directions with a customised switch-off delay time for each one.
The 280° and 230° motion detectors offer customised switch-off delay times for:
This example shows a 230° motion detector above a door:
(1) When leaving: switch-off delay time of 16 minutes increases safety by illuminating the outdoor area
(2) When entering: switch-off delay time lasts for eight minutes
In some cases it may be necessary to adjust the field of detection in order to prevent a detector from being triggered in error. On the 200° variants, the sensitivity of the entire field of detection and the range can be reduced in multiple stages. With the 280° and 230° variants it is even possible to customise the individual detection zones via the ESY-App: This is done either by moving adjusting visual controls using your finger, or by entering percentage values.
This example shows a 230° motion detector above a door:
In the example, the maximum field of detection would extend to the street and to the neighbouring property, and as such would result in the lighting frequently being switched on unnecessarily. The range in these zones has therefore been reduced accordingly.
A homeowner may wish to switch on the outdoor lighting themselves, regardless of which operating mode is in use, to check that everything is OK when they happen to look out of the window. The integrated push button input offers increased safety and convenience in this scenario. The motion detector will automatically switch off the light again once the switch-off delay time has come to an end. The twilight switches also feature push button input. This feature not only allows spontaneous activation of the lighting but also permanent activation or deactivation of the outdoor light for either 4 or 12 hours.
All of the devices in the DEFENSOR series are delivered with default settings and are ready for immediate use. However, anyone wishing to adjust the parameters to suit their specific conditions or customise the intelligent device functions for their own use can do so with ease using the ESY-Pen and ESY-App. The ESY-App is available free of charge and the ESY-Pen acts as a bridge, transmitting the commands from the mobile end devices to the infrared sensor technology.
The DEFENSOR series offers enhanced protection here too:
To prevent tampering, the housing has been designed with no controls on the outside, and a personal password in the ESY-App keeps the configuration process secure!
