If the sensor pops out of the ball joint, loosen the
clamp screw and push the sensor back into the
ball joint. Tighten the clamp screw when done.
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.
WIRE THE LIGHT CONTROL.
❒ Turn power off at the fuse or circuit breaker.
❒ Remove the existing light fixture, if present.
Black to Black
Optional: Connect additional load across
the white and red wires. Total lighting
load including lampheads on fixture must
not exceed 500 Watts (4.2A).
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.
