Light comes on half bright for selected time
after dusk (3 hr., 6 hr., until dawn). If motion
is sensed, the light turns on full bright for the
ON-TIME (1, 5, or 10 minutes) then returns
to dim mode.

❒ Twist the junction box wires and the

fixture wires together as shown below.
Secure with wire connectors. If you have
a metal junction box, you may not need
the green “pigtail”. If you are unsure about
the grounding method, consult your local
building code.

CAUTION: DO NOT connect the RED
wire unless you want to control other
lights from the motion sensor.

Recommended Grounding Method

Use a green ground “pigtail” (not provided) and
twist one end together with the bare fixture wire
and the box ground wire. Secure with a wire
connector. Secure the other end of the “pigtail”
with the GND screw on the X-bar.

Due to the size and weight of the fixture, you
may find it helpful to have an assistant hold the
fixture in place while connecting the wires.

OPTIONAL WIRING

❒ When wiring to additional standard

fixture only: Strip the motion sensor’s
red wire and connect to the standard

light’s black wire. Connect all white wires
together. Total fixture ratings must not
exceed 360 Watts (3.0 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 fixture is provided with a sensor rated

for 360 Watts. Since the fixture is only rated
100 Watts (180 Watts candelabra), 260
Watts (180 Watts candelabra) 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 specifies the maximum lamp watt­age for which the fixture is suitable.

❒ Once you have selected the fixtures to be

connected and determined their maximum
ratings, add these ratings up. For instance,
if you have 3 fixtures rated 100 Watts, 150
Watts, and 75 Watts respectively, you have
a total load of 325 Watts.

It is also possible to wire two motion sensing coach lights so that either unit will turn on
both lights at the same time (dual master system). It is recommended that only people with
plenty of electrical experience attempt this configuration. Please call our customer service
number (1-800-858-8501 - English Speaking Only) before attempting this wiring. If the dual

master wiring is not done correctly, it can destroy both motion sensing fixtures and
void your warranty.

TESTING

❒ Turn on the circuit breaker and light

switch.

Note: Sensor has a 1 1/2 minute warm up pe-

riod before it will detect motion. When
first turned on, wait 1 1/2 minutes.

❒ Switch the on-time to TEST position and

DualBrite® switch to the OFF position.

TEST 1 5 10 MIN

ON-TIME

OFF 3 6 DUSK TO

HOUR DAWN

❒ Walk through the coverage area noting

where you are when the lights turn on.

❒ If you need to change the sensitivity,

temporarily remove the fixture and make
the adjustment. Too much sensitivity may
increase false triggering.

❒ Set the amount of TIME you want the light

to stay on after motion is detected. (1, 5,
or 10 minutes).

❒ Set the amount of time after dusk you want

the lights on accent level.

Avoid aiming the control at:

• Objects that change temperature rapidly,

such as heating vents and air condition-
ers. These heat sources could cause false
triggering.

• Areas where pets or traffic may trigger

the control.

• Nearby large, light-colored objects

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