Recommended Grounding Method
Use a green ground “pigtail” (not provided) and twist
one end together with the bare xture wire and the box
ground wire. Secure with a wire connector. Secure the
other end of the “pigtail” with the GND screw on the
mounting plate.
WIRING THE LIGHT FIXTURE
CAUTION: DO NOT connect the RED wire
unless you want to control other lights from the
motion sensor (see Optional Wiring).
Note: All wiring must be run in accordance with the National Electrical Code through conduit or another acceptable means. Contact a qualied electrician if there is any
question as to the suitability of the system.
WARNING: Turn power o at circuit breaker
or fuse.
Connect the xture wires to the wires in the junction box.
Twist the wires together and secure with wire connectors.

OPTIONAL WIRING
is xture is provided with a sensor rated for 360 Watts. Since the xture is only rated 100 Watts, 260 Watts of additional lighting may be controlled by this sensor.
When determining what a xture is rated for, do not simply look at the rating on the light bulb in the xture. Look at
the marking which species the maximum bulb wattage for which the xture is suitable.
Once you have selected the xtures to be connected and determined their maximum ratings, add these ratings up. For
instance, if you have 3 xtures rated 100 Watts, 150 Watts, and 75 Watts respectively, you have a total load of 325 Watts.
Wiring Diagram 1 – When wiring to control a standard light xture: Strip the motion sensor’s red wire and connect to
the standard light’s black wire. Connect all white wires together. Total xture ratings must not exceed 360 Watts (3.0 A).
Wiring Diagram 2 – When wiring to control another motion sensing light xture (Master / Slave): Strip the red wire in
both light xtures. Connect the red wire of the controlling (master) xture to the red and black wires of the controlled
(slave) xture. Connect all white wires together. Total xture ratings must not exceed 360 Watts (3.0 A).
Wiring Diagram 3 – When wiring so either motion light turns on the both motion lights (Master / Master): Strip the
red wire in both light xtures. Connect the red wire of one xture to the red wire of the second xture. Note: In most
installations, an additional wire (same gauge as existing house wire) will have to be installed in the house to connect the
two xtures as master / master. Connect all white wires together and all black wires together. Total xture ratings must
not exceed 360 Watts (3.0 A).

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• To prolong the original appearance, clean with clear water
and a soft damp cloth only.
• Do not use paints, solvents, or other chemicals on this
light xture. ey could cause a premature deterioration
of the nish. is is not a defect in the nish and will not
be covered by the warranty.
• Do not spray with hose or power washer.
• Optional DualBrite® Control – is optional feature
allows the light xture to turn on at a lower light level
after dusk (sunset) for the amount of time selected. When
motion is detected, the lights will turn on full bright. is
feature can be turned OFF and the motion sensor will
continue to work in AUTO mode.
• Manual Mode – is light can be activated to stay on full
bright after dusk (sunset) for only one night at a time. It
automatically resets to motion sensing at dawn (sunrise).
Manual mode must be re-activated each night. Note: If
power to the light xture is o for more than 5 seconds,
allow the electronic circuitry in the sensor to calibrate
(90 seconds) prior to switching to manual mode.
1. To turn on MANUAL mode, switch the light o at
the wall switch for 1 to 2 seconds and then back on.
2. To return to AUTO mode, switch the light o at the
wall switch for 1 to 2 seconds and then back on.
Note: e sensor will also reset to AUTO mode at
sunrise.
Operating Modes
• Motion Sensor (AUTO) – is light xture is designed
to automatically turn on when the sensor detects a temperature dierence moving across the front of the motion
sensor. e light will turn o automatically after a set
amount of time. e ON-TIME control should be set
to 1, 5, or 10 minute setting and the wall switch should
be left in the ON position at all times.
