Frequently Asked Questions - VMBPIRO-B-10 Velbus

How do I install the VMBPIRO-B-10 sensor?

Mount the sensor at a height of 2 to 4 meters, with the detection area unobstructed. Connect the 15 ± 3 VDC power supply and the Velbus bus wires according to the manual. Use the Velbuslink software for configuration.

What is the detection range of the motion sensor?

The detection angle is 150°. The maximum lateral distance is 12 m and frontal distance is 5 m under optimal conditions.

Can I use the sensor with Velbuslink software?

Yes, the VMBPIRO-B-10 is fully configurable using Velbuslink (free) and a USB/RS-232 interface module.

How do I adjust the light sensitivity?

Light sensitivity can be programmed from 1 to 100 lux using the Velbuslink software. The sensor has separate channels for dark/light and light-dependent motion outputs.

What is the operating temperature range?

The sensor operates reliably between -25°C and +45°C and has an IP55 protective rating for outdoor use.

How do I reset the sensor to factory settings?

Reset can be performed via the Velbuslink software by restoring default settings. Alternatively, a bus power cycle may reset temporary errors.

Is the VMBPIRO-B-10 compatible with other Velbus modules?

Yes, it works with any Velbus system. It can communicate with up to 250 other electronically addressed modules on the same bus.

How can I change the motion timeout?

The motion output channels have a programmable timeout adjustable via Velbuslink. You can set different durations for the two motion outputs.

What does the built-in astronomical clock do?

The astronomical clock allows the sensor to operate time-dependently, such as enabling motion detection only during certain hours based on sunrise/sunset.

How do I clean and maintain the sensor?

Clean the housing with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the sensor lens remains unobstructed for accurate detection.

USER MANUAL VMBPIRO-B-10 Velbus

Outdoor motion, twilight and temperature sensor - black

The VMBPIRO is much more than an outdoor motion detector. This adapted Theben sensor allows you to simultaneously use motion and light sensitivity as well as temperature measurement. The built-in astronomical clock allows the VMBPIRO to operate time-dependently. The module also simultaneously detects motion for a passage signal or light dependent movement for lighting control.
