Installation
CAUTION: BEFORE STARTING THE INSTALLATION, TURN THE POWER OFF AT THE
CIRCUIT BREAKER.
❒ Loosen the thumb-
screws holding the
sensor head and lamp
holders.
❒ Adjust the various
parts so that the fix-
ture looks similar to
this illustration.
❒ Finger tighten the
thumbscrews at this
time.
Wall Mount
Eave Mount
❒ Loosen the thumb-
screws holding the
sensor head and
lamp holders.
❒ Adjust the various
parts so that the fix-
ture looks similar to
this illustration.
❒ Finger tighten the
thumbscrews at this
time.
If you want to use the Manual Override feature
you will need to install the fixture on a circuit
controlled by a switch.
If controlling more than one fixture with this sen-
sor, refer to page 6.
Screw the JourneyMan
®
replacement motion sen-
sor into a base plate or lighting fixture that will
accommodate the sensor.
If your fixture has a gasket, make sure it is in place
before connecting any wires.
Connect the junction box wires to the sensor and
fixture wires as shown below. Twist together and
secure with wire connectors provided.

❒ When wiring to additional standard fix-
tures: Connect the sensor's red wire to the
standard light's black wires. Connect all white
wires together. Total fixture ratings must not
exceed 1000W (8.3 A).
NOTE: All wiring between fixtures should be run
in accordance with the National Electrical Code
through conduit or another acceptable means.
Contact a qualified electrician if there is any
question as to the suitability of the system.
❒ This sensor has a rating of 1000W. If your fix-
ture is only rated 300W, 700W of additional
load may be controlled by this sensor.
❒ When determining what a fixture is rated for,
do not simply look at the rating on the lamp in
the fixture. Look at the marking which speci-
fies the maximum lamp wattage for which the
fixture is suitable.
❒ Once you have selected the fixtures to be con-
nected and determined their maximum ratings,
add these ratings up. For instance, if you have
3 fixtures rated 100W, 150W, and 75W respec-
tively, you have a total load of 325W.

Finish Mounting
❒ Align the fixture base plate, gasket, and the
junction box holes. Secure with mounting
screws that fit your junction box.
❒ If not installed on a weatherproof box or if an
adaptor plate was used, caulk between the
base plate and mounting surface with sili-
cone weather sealant.
To avoid water damage
and electrical shock, keep
lamp holders aimed below
horizontal.

minutes for the unit to calibrate.
Testing with Range Boost on during day-
light may result in abnormal operation.
Sensor Bottom
Don't aim the control at:
• Objects that change temperature rapidly, such
as heating vents and air conditioners, to help
avoid false triggering.
•Where pets or traffic may trigger the control.
• Nearby large, light-colored objects reflect-
ing light may trigger the shut-off feature. Do
not point other lights at the sensor.
❒ Tu rn on the circuit breaker and light switch.
❒ Open the control access cover (on bottom of
unit) by pulling down on the tab of the rubber
cover.
❒ Turn the sensitivity control to the center of its

Aim Sensor Down
for Short Coverage
❒ Loosen the wing screws, estimate the direction to aim the sensor and tighten
the wing screws just enough to hold the sensor in place.
❒ Walk through the coverage area noting where you are when the lights turn
on. Loosen the wing screws and readjust the sensor as necessary. Tighten
the wing screws (finger tight) when you are satisfied with the coverage
direction. If you have not already tightened the locknut against the base
plate, do so now. Keep the sensor at least 1 inch (25 mm) from lamps
and keep the controls on the bottom.
❒ Adjust SENSITIVITY as needed to increase or decrease the range. Too
much sensitivity may increase false triggering.
❒ Set the amount of TIME (1, 5 or 20 minutes) you want the lights to stay on
after motion is detected at night.
❒ If you need to detect objects more than 70 feet (21 m) away, turn Range
Boost on.
❒ Replace the rubber cover to protect controls.

If the wide angle (270°) coverage is too wide for
your application, you may need to install the lens
shield to reduce the coverage angle.
❒ Decide which side of the lens you want to cover.
❒ Curve the shield as shown. Slide the shield
down, under the two metal ribs of the case.
Make sure the shield slides all the way down
so the entire shield will lay directly against
the lens.
❒ Slip the small protrusion behind the vertical
metal rib to hold the top of the shield in place.

If the sensor is not kept level you may experi-

objects may pass under the detection zone with-
out being detected.

apparent
reason.
SYMPTOM
Lights stay
on continu-
ously.
Lights flash
on and off.
POSSIBLE CAUSE

aim sensor. Turn Boost off).
1. Heat or light from the lamps may be
turning the Light Control on and off.
(Aim lamps away from the sensor.
Turn Boost off)
.
2. Reflected heat from other objects
are triggering the sensor.
(Re-aim
sensor. Turn Boost off)
.
3. Control is warming up.
(Flashing is
normal under these conditions. Wait
1 minute for sensor to warm up)
.
4. Control is in Test.
(Set control switch
to an ON-TIME position)
.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
1. Light switch is turned off.
2. Flood light is loose or burned out.
3. Fuse is blown or circuit breaker is
turned off.
4. Daylight turnoff is in effect.
(Re-
check after dark)
.
5. Incorrect circuit wiring, if this is a
new installation.
6. Re-aim the sensor to cover de-
sired area.
1. Control may be installed in a rela-
tively dark location.
2. Control is in Test.
(Set control
switch to an ON-TIME position)
.
1. Control may be sensing small ani-
mals or automobile traffic.
(Re-
aim sensor or use lens shield)
.
2. Sensitivity is set too high.
