Provided is a detection system for a luminaire fixture including a sensor and a laser meter to allow positioning of a sensor for precise positioning toward a viewing area. The sensor includes a sensor mount to attach the detection system to an existing luminaire, a sensor lens to perceive a viewing area, and a sensor housing to protect the sensor lens. The laser meter includes a laser to project a focused light path for positioning, and a laser housing to protect the laser. The sensor lens is positioned with respect to the laser, causing the sensor lens to move with respect to the laser. Also provided is a method for configuring an adjustable detection system for a luminaire.
