Note: When fi rst turned on wait about 1 1/2 minutes for
the circuitry to calibrate.
TEST
Put ON-TIME switch on
the sensor bottom to
TEST and the 2-Level
Lighting switch OFF.
Put the ON-TIME switch in the 1, 5,
or 20 minute position.
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 20
position.

* If you get confused while switching modes, turn the
power off for one minute, then back on. After the calibration time the control will be in the AUTO mode.
2-LEVEL LIGHTING TIMER
Light comes on half bright for selected time after dusk
(Off, 3 hr., 6 hr., until dawn). If motion is sensed,
the light turns on full bright for the ON-TIME (1, 5,
or 20 minutes) then returns to dim mode.
INSTALLATION
For easy installation, select an existing light with a wall
switch for replacement.

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.
For eave mount only:
❒ Swing the sensor head towards the clamp screw
joint.
Clamp Screw
❒ Then rotate the sensor head clockwise 180° so the
controls face down.

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.

MOUNT THE LIGHT CONTROL
❒ Align the Light Control cover plate and cover plate
gasket. Secure with the mounting bolt.
❒ For model SL-5318 only, align the three slots in
the decorative shell with the lamp holder pins. Push
the shell in and then twist clockwise to lock. Repeat
for other shell.
Shell Slot
❒ Push the Rubber Plug fi rmly into place.
❒ If a wet location junction box was not used, caulk
the wall plate mounting surface with silicone
weather sealant.
WIRE THE LIGHT CONTROL
WARNING: Turn power off at circuit breaker.
❒ Remove the existing light fi xture.
❒ Install the mounting strap as shown using two screws
that fi t your junction box.
❒ The plastic hanger can be used to hold the fi xture
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.
❒ Route the Light Control’s wires through the large
gasket holes.
❒ Twist the junction box wires and fi xture wires together
as shown. Secure with wire connectors.
To avoid water damage and electrical shock,
keep lamp holders 30° below horizontal.
Keep lamps at least
1" (2.5 cm) from the
Lock Nut
❒ Adjust the lamp holders by loosening the lock nuts
but do not rotate the lamp holders more than 180°
from the factory setting. When screwing in the

TEST AND ADJUSTMENT
❒ Turn on the circuit breaker and light switch.
NOTE: Sensor has a 1 1/2 minute warm up period
before it will detect motion. When fi rst turned
on, wait 1 1/2 minutes.
❒ Turn the RANGE control to the mid position, 2-Level
Lighting to OFF and the ON-TIME control to the
TEST position.
MAX
MIN
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.
