The Motion Sensor Quartz Security Light turns on 150 watts of quartz-halogen lighting when motion is detected and then, after a selectable period of time, automatically turns the lighting off. The built-in photocell keeps the lighting off during daylight hours.

Gasket

4 Screws

3 Wire

Requirements

• The Light Control requires 120-volts AC. Do not con-

nect through a dimmer or other electronic switch.

• If you want to use Manual Mode, the control must be wired through a switch.

• Some codes require installation by a qualiﬁ ed

electrician.

• This product is intended for use with the enclosed gasket and with a junction box marked for use in wet locations.

• The backplate has knockouts so the sensor can be mounted on most junction boxes.

• In some applications a universal adaptor plate may be needed. Adaptors are available at Home Centers and Electrical Supply Stores.

TEST

Put the ON-TIME switch on the bottom of the sensor in the TEST position.

AUTO

Put the ON-TIME switch in the 1, 5, or 10 minute position.

MANUAL MODE

Manual mode only works at night because daylight returns the sensor to AUTO.

Flip the light switch off for one second then back on to toggle between AUTO and MANUAL MODE.

Manual mode works only with the ON-TIME switch in the 1, 5, or 10 position.

INSTALLATION

For easy installation, select an existing light with a wall switch for replacement.

For best performance, locate the ﬁ xture about 8 ft. (2.4 m) above the ground.

CAUTION: The sensor must be mounted below the lamp housing for wall installations.

❒ To insert the new bulb, push the bulb into the right

socket so the bulb ﬁ ts completely into the left socket.

❒ Check that the bulb is seated properly. ❒ Close the glass cover. Replace screw.

WIRE THE LIGHT CONTROL

WARNING: Turn power off at circuit breaker

or fuse.

❒ Drill out the holes if needed

to mount the backplate to the junction box.

CAUTION to avoid ﬁ re or burn hazards:

• Allow ﬁ xture to cool before touching. The bulb and ﬁ xture operate at high temperatures.

• Keep ﬁ xture at least 2" (5 cm) from combustible materials. Do not aim at objects closer than 3 feet (1 m).

• Re-lamp with type T 150W (or less) halogen 120 VAC lamp only.

For under eave installation, the sensor head must be rotated as shown in the next two steps for proper

operation and to avoid the risk of electrical shock.

❒ Rotate the sensor head to-

wards the clamp screw joint.

Controls

❒ Remove the existing light ﬁ xture. ❒ Strip about 5/8" insulation from the existing junction

box wiring.

❒ Route the Light Control’s wires through the large

hole in the gasket.

❒ Twist the junction box wires and ﬁ xture wires together

as shown. Secure with wire connectors.

❒ Then rotate the sensor

head counterclockwise 180° so the controls face down.

Controls

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.

BULB INSTALLATION AND RELAMPING

❒ When relamping, turn power off and let the ﬁ xture

cool.

❒ Remove the screw that holds the glass cover shut.

Remove the old bulb by pushing the bulb towards the right until the left side of the bulb is clear of the left socket.

MOUNT THE LIGHT CONTROL

❒ Align the Light Control cover plate and cover plate

gasket and the junction box. Insert and tighten the mounting screws.

❒ If not installed on a weatherproof box or if an adaptor

plate is used, caulk the wall plate and mounting surface with silicone weather sealant.

RIGHT WRONG

The halogen light must be mounted horizontally (+/- 4°).

TEST AND ADJUSTMENT

❒ Turn on the circuit breaker and light switch.

NOTE: Sensor requires about 1 1/2 minutes to calibrate

before it will detect motion. When ﬁ rst turned on, wait about 1 1/2 minutes.

❒ Turn the SENSITIVITY (SENS) control to the mid

position and the ON-TIME control to the TEST position.

Bottom of Sensor

Avoid aiming the control at:

• Objects that change temperature rapidly, such as

heating vents and air conditioners. These heat sources could cause false triggering.

• Areas where pets or trafﬁ c may trigger the control.

• Nearby large, light-colored objects reﬂ ecting light

may trigger the shut-off feature. Do not point other lights at the sensor.

❒ Loosen the clamp screw in the

sensor ball joint and gently rotate the sensor to aim.

❒ Walk through the coverage

area noting where you are when the lights turn on. Move the sensor head up, down, or sideways to change the coverage area. Keep the sensor at

least 1" (25 mm) away from the lamps.

❒ Set SENSITIVITY as needed.

Too much sensitivity may increase false triggering.

❒ Secure the sensor head into

position by tightening the clamp screw. Do not over-

tighten the screw.

❒ Set the amount of TIME the

lights stay on after motion is detected. It is selectable from 1, 5, or 10 minutes.
