Hello,
I am trying trying to wire in a 3 wire, 12V pir motion detector.
I have a brown wire to constant 12v source
I have a red wire ( trigger ) going to terminal for sensor #1
And I have the blue ground going to body and to ground terminal right next to terminal #1 as per legend on metal cover .
When I short ground terminal and terminal #1 I get a response but the pir is not working as expected. Have tried other pir devices with no luck.
What is my problem here, has to be something very easy and I just can't get there because I don't know yet how to fine tune time, distance and LUX on the pir.
Picture of wiring at terminal attached .
By the way, check out my project at YouTube video
