does this come with directions/schematic, indicating which pin does/needs what? Will this operate a low current relay for lights etc? does it shut off by itself, if so in how long of time?

I found a datasheet for the module here:http://eecs.oregonstate.edu/education/docs/pir/31227sc.pdf and for the BISS0001 chip it uses here: http://www.ladyada.net/media/sensors/BISS0001.pdf (accessed 12Sep2014). The output (of both the chip and this module) is rated 3.3V at only 10mA, which will safely drive a digital input pin, FET gate or small bipolar transistor base. The BISS0001 data sheet example circuit shows how to use the output with an NPN transistor to control a 12V relay. (If the links go stale/disappear, I found them by searching for the chip, BISS0001, or the module, HC-SR501 (or equivalent DSN-FIR800, the one I received).

mine did NOT come with schematic or documentation of any kind. I would NOT expect it to operate a low current relay, the output will only trigger a logic level signal in the very low milliamp range. 0-5vdc

Tested it with LED lights. The only issue is it will not Turn OFF LED lights alone. If I put a 40W inc lamp together with LED lights controlled by the dimmer, it works ok. That suggests that it needs some minimal load to turn off.

Hi Kao, The wiring diagram is on the relay itself. I was looking for a separate wiring diagram but discovered the markings on the relay when I held it up to the light. Each pole has a n/o & n/c position. Hope this answers your questions. It's working great for me.

Well, I am not sure about the part number for the pins, but it looks like a normal one nothing special. Please contact seller for more details. I used a relay that is not from Hella. hope this helps

I have these lights and they are awesome. I haven't had any issues but I did not use the relay. Power source, switch, lights. It has worked like that all summer and I have two of them hooked up to the same switch. I did use a 30 amp toggle switch.

Go ahead... it is OK. the devide energizes a dry relay contact. you can use any kind of fixture with it up to the specified rating... a LED light is far beyond the max drain current.

I read some of the other responses..you don't need a relay with these lights, they only draw about 2 amps total.

No, 12vdc is always required on to power the circuit. There are 2 pins that you wire to a simple push button ( must be momentary, not a switch. Like a doorbell button) once you push the button, the time will start. This closes the relay contacts. You use the relay as a switch to control what you like - this can be whatever you like (limited by the relay rating of up to 10 amps 250vac or 10 amps 30vdc You must supply this voltage independently, unless it's 12vdc, then you can use the same supply voltage to the timer. The timer runs its cycle until the next time you press the button

Answer here...this is a on and of switch with a fuse so you don't mess up your light bar in case of it getting over loaded with power and the relay helps manage power flow

Just pressure switch, you can unscrew the end a little and it will shut off. Light is not all that impressive, if your looking for something bright I would spend a little more on something else, it will be worth it.

Page 24, of the manual explains the different features. I have my light shut off, with the exception of when the door is open or closed, then it shuts off in 3 mins. Never on unless I force it on. Hope this helps. http://www.liftmaster.com/CatalogResourcesV3/en-us/shared/files/tucmanuals/114A4565.pdf

You don't need a relay if your module has a +park light output you can put directly to +park light sw wire

John, when I hooked mine up I simply one of the two AC lines that went to the light bulb. This spring loaded switch is only an 'interrupter'. It performs the same way as if you cut one line to your closet line each time you closed the door and then re-spliced that line when you opened your door. What I'm saying is that it does not matter which of the two AC wires you tap into, this switch just opens and closes the circuit

The output is a bimetallic switch which is a mechanical switch with time delay so it doesn't respond to things like passing cars. The operative word here is mechanical as opposed to solid state. Solid state relays are fussy about what flows through them (incandescent, CFL, LED) . This is basically a regular on/off switch and doesn't care what it switches as long as you don't exceed the maximum current ratings.

Not certain i understand your question fully. its a programmable fixture so why would one buy it if they didnt want that feature? you want to turn the fixture off but you dont want to physically do it nor do you want it programmed to turn off?? you can just push the button used for programming to turn the light off. thats your choice. you either program it to turn off or yes you have to push the button to turn it off.....or unplug it i guess??

Pretty Simple. There is an input VCC and Ground and once that power applies it waits an x amount of time (based on the potentiometer) to actuate the relay. The relay has a COM (not connected to Ground) and a normally open and normally closed switch. Anything specific that you need help with?

The light only pulls 10 amps, so you can get a heavy duty rocker switch and wire it that way and be fine. I used a relay just because I could feed smaller wires through the firewall to the switch and if I wanted to at a later date add more lights controlled by the same switch.
