Note: Installation of this light control should be done only by

those with experience in 120 Volt household wiring. Some lo-

cal codes may require that a licensed electrician install the light

control.

This light control automatically turns on lights when motion is

detected.
Two lamp holders are provided. The lamp holders are rated at 150

watts max. each.

3. Testing

Turn the power back on at the circuit breaker. Turn the light switch

on.
Note: When first turned on wait about 1

2

minutes for the circuitry

to calibrate.
Put the TIME switch on the bottom of the sensor in the TEST posi-

tion. You can now walk in front of the unit and the lights will come on

for about 5 seconds. The TEST mode works both day and night.
Walk through the coverage area and point the sensor to obtain the

desired coverage area. Adjust sensitivity as needed. Use Range

Boost only if required.

4. Operation

For motion sensing, put the ON-TIME switch on the bottom of the

sensor in the 1, 5 or 20 minute position. When motion is detected,

the lights will come on the selected time. Note: The photocell keeps

the lights from turning on in daylight.
To keep lights on all night, flip the light switch off for 1 second

then back on. Turning the light switch off for 1 second then back

on will return the control to the motion sensing mode. At dawn, the

control will return to the motion sensing mode and shut off.
For Accent Lighting, set the D

switch to the 3, 6, or Dusk

to Dawn setting. The lights will then turn on dim at sundown for the

set time. When motion is sensed the lights will turn on full bright.

1. Installation

Caution: Always turn the circuit breaker off when wiring the

fixture.
1. Remove the existing fixture.
2. The plastic hanger can be used to hold the fixture while wiring.

The small end of the plastic hanger can be threaded through the
hole in the center of the cover plate. The small end then goes into
one of the slots on the mounting strap.

3. Connect the light control as shown in Figure 1:

• Black sensor wire to the black (HOT) house wire.

• White sensor wire to the white (NEUTRAL) house wire.

2. Aiming

The coverage area for the sensor is shown in Figure 2. The sensor

should be aimed so that the motion to be detected is in front of and

across the coverage area. The sensor should be aimed looking out

at a horizontal angle. To reduce false triggering, point the sensor

away from traffic areas, air conditioners, dryer vents, water pools,

or anything which may move or change temperature rapidly.

4. Attach the fixture to the mounting strap with the center mount-

ing bolt. Use a weatherproof sealant to seal the fixture to the

junction box.

5. Install the protective lamp shields on the lamp holders by lining

up the groves on the narrow end of the shields with the dimples

in the lamp holders, push the shields into the lamp holders and

turn clockwise slightly.

6. Install the lamps in the lamp holders. Do not over tighten.

7. Adjustment lamp holders. The lamps should be at least 1 inch

away from the sensor.

CAUTION: Do not mount the sensor above or touching the lamps

(keep 1 inch or more from the lamps). The sensor bottom must

be facing down for best coverage and to avoid water damage

and electrical shock.
Note: For under-eave installation, rotate the sensor head 180° by

bending the sensor towards the clamp bracket. Rotate the sensor

bottom clockwise away from the bracket.
