JL-423 Direct Wire-In Digital Photocontrol (Zero cross +FCC)

Product Summary

The photocontrol JL-423 series is applicable to control the passage lighting and doorway lighting automatically in accordance with the ambient lighting level.This product is designed with electronic circuits with MCU incorporated. Its quicker response with time delay of 5 seconds offers easy-to-test feature while avoidingredundancy operation due to spotlight or lightening during night time. Especially, it supports midnight sleeping and reburning before dawn.Optional Z version has zero-cross technology built-in for longer work life, while conforms FCC regulations.Further, JL-423CM provides surge protection feature up to 235J/5000A.

Initial Testing

.     It is normal for the SWITCH to take few seconds to turn off when first installed..     To test “turn on” during daytime, cover its eye with opaque material..     Do not cover with finger because light traveling through fingers may be great enough to keep the switch open..     Test will take approximately 1 minutes.
