These instructions show the sensor wired to floodlamps. The white sensor wire is neutral. The
black sensor wire is hot. The red wire is the
switched "hot" wire. The lighting load (Up to 500
Watts, 4.2A Maximum) is placed across the white
and red wires.
❒ After screwing the sensor into the wall plate,
connect the junction box wires to the Light
Control wires by twisting together and securing
with wire connectors.
MOUNT THE LIGHT.
❒ Follow the instructions that came with your light
fixture for mounting and adjusting the light fixture.
❒ Keep regular PAR-38 lamps at least 1" (25 mm)
from the sensor. Halogen lamps should be kept
at least 2" (51 mm) from the sensor.
