- Position for the sensor first - it must see the doorway. Mount to one side of the walking path rather than directly above it.
- Keep it away from heat - heating vents and hot pipework can trigger the sensor.
- Test network coverage - fit one fixture and check it holds a connection before ordering the rest. Basements and detached garages are where signal usually runs out.
- Measure the ceiling void and cut - confirm depth and clearance first.
- Connect the supply - a licensed electrician should make the connection.
- Pair and group - pair each fixture in the app, then put every fixture in one room into a single group.
- Set a night level - a lower brightness overnight and a higher one in the day is the setting people actually use.
- Walk-test it - walk in from the doorway, check it triggers, then wait and check it switches off.
A sensor and an app in the same fixture
Most downlights do one or the other. This one has a motion sensor built into the housing and smart control on top, so it switches itself on when somebody walks in and still lets you set brightness and colour temperature from your phone.
The combination is useful in places you pass through but still want control over. A garage that doubles as a workshop, a hallway that should be dim at night and bright in the morning, a basement office.

Setting it up so it behaves
- Position for the sensor first. It needs to see the doorway. Mount it to one side of the walking path rather than directly over it, since sensors read movement across their field better than movement towards them.
- Keep it off heat. Away from heating vents and hot pipework, which can set it off.
- Set a night level. A low brightness overnight and a higher one in the day is the setting people actually use.
- Group the room. Put every fixture in one space into a single group so they trigger and change together.
Where a sensor is the wrong choice
Anywhere people sit still. In a living room or an office, sit quietly for long enough and the fixture decides the room is empty. Keep sensors for spaces people move through.
Before you buy a full set
Smart fixtures need network coverage at the ceiling, and a basement or a detached garage is often where that runs out. Fit one, check it holds a connection, then order the rest.
Colour temperature
Cooler for a garage or a workshop where you need to see clearly. Warmer for a hallway inside the house, so it does not feel like a car park at two in the morning.
Installation
Hardwired and recessed, fitted by a licensed electrician. Confirm the ceiling void depth before cutting.
