Be sure to visit our website for the most up-to-date information about this product: https://homeseer.com/support-home/OverviewThe HS-FLS100-G2 is a PIR module that’s designed to retrofit existing outdoor floodlights. It features a PIR sensor to detect motion through the movement of heat sources and a LUX sensor for determining the brightness of its surroundings. It is equipped with Z-Wave Plus wireless communication capability that will convert an ordinary motion-activated floodlight into a smart home device.Conventional Floodlight ModeHS-FLS100-G2 can be used as a conventional motion-activated floodlight sensor to power floodlights when motion is sensed during dark hours. Controls are provided for manual adjustment of LUX sensitivity and floodlight ON times.Smart Floodlight ModeWhen added to a smart home system, HS-FLS100-G2 will send Z-Wave commands to the smart hub or home controller when motion is sensed and when the LUX level changes. Likewise, the smart hub or home controller can send Z-Wave commands back to the HS-FLS100-G2 to turn floodlights ON and OFF. This added functionality provides a very high level of flexibility not typically available in conventional motion-activated floodlights.Smart Sensor ModeHS-FLS100-G2 can also be installed and used simply as an outdoor motion, LUX, and temperature sensor. Floodlight functionality is not required. This brings some interesting security and smart home possibilities!S2 SecurityThis product supports the S2 security protocol that uses encrypted Z-Wave Plus messages to communicate to other security-enabled Z-Wave Plus products. A security-enabled Z-Wave Plus controller must be used in order to fully utilize the security features of this product.

Note: Please read this entire instruction manual before you start the installation.
IMPORTANT
Installation must be performed by skilled technicians who are informed about the standards and technical requirements of the appliance and its proper installation.Check your local codes as they apply to your situation. If the house wiring is of aluminum, consult with an electrician about proper wiring methods.Before proceeding with the installation, TURN OFF THE POWER TO THE LIGHTING CIRCUIT AT THE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE BOX TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
SAFETY PRECAUTION
- DO NOT install when it is raining.
- Isolate the power supply before installation.
- Ensure that local Wiring and Building regulations are complied with.
- The unit is supplied with a pre-wired supply cable this must be used and must not be removed.
- Total lighting load to HS-FLS100-G2 not exceed:– 300W incandescent @ AC120V– 100W LED @ AC120V with 0.8 pF Driver
Installation & Wiring instructions
Note: As with any outdoor installation work it is always recommended to start early during the day.WARNING: TURN OFF POWER BY REMOVING THE POWER FUSE OR TURNING OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER BEFORE INSTALLATION.Taking down the existing floodlight
- With the mains supply turned off, if possible, remove the lamps from the bulb holders of the existing floodlight to avoid any damage during the installation.
- Carefully detach the floodlight from the wall by removing its mounting screws. Keep all parts for reuse later, including any rubber rings. Take note of the direction of the rubber gasket as it needs to be reassembled later in the same way.
- Disconnect the mains wire from the floodlight by untwisting the wire nuts.
- When done, place the floodlight on a table to prepare for wiring the HS-FLS100-G2.Removing old motion sensor(Skip this section if the existing floodlight has no motion sensor)
- Locate the wires coming from the old motion sensor, usually colored black, white and red.
- Disconnect the wires of the motion sensor by cutting it if necessary.
- Remove the old motion sensor from the mounting base by twisting its threaded arm counterclockwise.Wiring up HS-FLS100-G2
- Screw the threaded arm of HS-FLS100-G2 into the mounting base. For typical wall installation, HS-FLS100-G2 should be located at the bottom of the mounting base.
- Connect up the wiring as in the diagram below, using wire nuts to join the wires. If replacing an old motion sensor, simply follow the same wiring color as the old motion sensor.
- Route the power leads Hot and Neutral through the rubber gasket to get ready for a wall mount. Ensure the rubber gasket is facing the same direction as it was before.
- When completed, turn the knob of Time-Off on the unit to the “T” mark, and turn the knob of Lux on the unit to the “ ” markAssembling back the floodlight
- Connect back the mains wire as before. Tuck the wire nuts and excess cable neatly inside the junction box.
- Screw the lighting floodlight back into position using its mounting screws. Place the rubber rings back into their positions.
- Insert the lamps removed earlier back into the bulb holders, adjust the lamp direction if necessary.
- Reinstate the power supply to the floodlight and switch on the wall switch, if installed. The floodlight will turn on for around 60 seconds for a warm-up and then turn off. It is now in ‘Test Mode’.
Walk Test
The user can perform a walk test to ensure the PIR detector’s range falls within the desired area of coverage.
- Walk through its PIR Detector coverage area. The floodlight turns on when you move and turns off after approximately 5 seconds. Wait for the floodlight to turn off before the next test.
- When you are satisfied with the coverage area you can now set the desired Time period and Lux level.
Note: The sensitivity of the PIR can be adjusted after the Inclusion to a Z-wave controller, using Parameter 8 configuration (refer to Z-wave configuration settings in the Programming section).
Time and Lux adjustmentYou can set desired Time period and Lux level through;(i) the Z-Wave controller after connecting to a Z-wave network (see next section) or,(ii) manually adjusting the knobs on the unit if not connected to a Z-wave network. The following section describes the steps for manual setting.(1) Time adjustment The time-off knob controls how long the floodlight will stay on after the motion is detected. Turning the knob towards the + mark increases the time (up to about 12 minutes) or towards the T mark decreases it (down to about 8 seconds). The recommended setting is around the midpoint of the scale giving approximately 5 minutes. 
(2) Lux level adjustmentThe LUX knob sets the threshold of ambient brightness level that will activate the motion sensor. The knob can be adjusted between “ ” mark (always trigger regardless of light level) and the moon symbol (trigger only when dark). The adjustable Lux range is about 10 – 900 Lux.
- To set the lux level, turn the Time-off knob to “T” for maximum response.
- Turn the LUX control knob to the “moon” (dusk) position.
- Wait until the ambient light reaches the level of darkness at which you wish the floodlight to activate.
- Slowly rotate the Lux knob anti-clockwise while keeping creating motion during the process until the floodlight turns on. At this position, the light will operate at approximately the same level of darkness each evening.
- Set the Time-off knob back to the desired preset time.
Note: When connected to a Z-wave controller, this manual setting will be overwritten by the settings through the Z-wave controller.
Z-wave Auto Inclusion
The unit supports the Auto Inclusion feature where it will automatically enter Inclusion mode when first powered up after a factory reset.
- Turn off power to the floodlight by turning off the wall switch.
- Try to relocate the Z-wave controller nearer to the floodlight, with at most one wall separation between them.
- Put the Z-Wave Controller into Inclusion mode.
- Turn on the wall switch of the floodlight. The floodlight will then turn on for 5 seconds and the Link LED will start to blink slowly.
- When the Link LED stops blinking the inclusion process is complete.Note: If you are connecting this unit to a Z-wave controller that utilizes the S2 security protocol, you may be asked by your controller to enter a 5-digit Device Specific Key (DSK) that is unique to each unit. This can be found in one of two places:– on the QR code label on the back of the unit– on the insert card inside the packaging.
- Turn on the floodlight using the Z-wave controller to check if the auto inclusion is working properly.If Auto Inclusion fails, refer to the Troubleshooting section regarding Manual Inclusion.
Note: HS-FLS100-G2 also supports Z-wave SmartStart technology which allows the inclusion of devices with controllers through automatic means or through a quick scan of a QR code. The controller must support the Z-wave SmartStart feature for it to work.

Programming
Z-Wave GroupThe unit supports either one of two Z-wave Association Groups:Group 1: Association with 1 Controller node.Group 2: Association with 4 nodes (i.e. end devices such as smart plugs and other lighting controllers). This allows the PIR detector on the unit to transfer commands directly to other Z-wave end devices without the participation of the controller. This has the effect that when its detector triggers, all devices associated with the unit will be operated.Z-Wave Plus Information
