INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Risk of fire. This fixture is designed
for wall mounting only. DO NOT install on a ceiling
or soffit.
For easy installation, select an existing light operated
by a wall switch for replacement.
For best performance, mount the fixture about 8 feet
(2.4 m) above the ground. NOTE:
higher than 8 ft. (2.4 m), aiming the sensor down will reduce
coverage distance.
If fixture is mounted
❒ Attach the lamp arm to
the backplate arm and
secure with the long
bolt.
WARNING: Turn power off at circuit breaker
or fuse.
❒ Remove the existing light fixture.
❒ The S-hook can be used to hold the fixture while
wiring. The small end of the hook can be inserted
into a hole in the junction box. The large end goes
around the “neck” of the fixture.
❒ Route the light control’s wires through the large
hole in the gasket.
❒ Twist the junction box wires and fixture wires together
as shown. Secure with a wire connector.

sure the wires are not pinched
by the joint.

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.

Bulb Installation and Re-lamping
❒ When re-lamping, turn power off and let the fixture
cool.
CAUTION: To Avoid Fire Or Burn Hazards:
• Allow fixture to cool before touching. The bulb and
the fixture operate at high temperatures.
• Keep fixture at least 2" (51 mm) from combustible materials. Do not aim at objects closer than 3 ft. (1 m).
• Re-lamp with type T halogen, 500 W max., 120 VAC
lamp only.
MOUNT HORIZONTALLY
The halogen light must be
mounted horizontally (+/- 4°).
❒ Remove glass cover and remove the old bulb by
pushing the bulb towards the right until the left side
of the bulb is clear of the left socket.
❒ To insert the new bulb, push the bulb into the right
socket so the bulb fits completely into the left
socket.
❒ Check that the bulb is seated properly.
❒ Re-install the glass cover.
For proper operation and safety, the light fixture must
be above the sensor and the sensor head must be
rotated so that the controls are on the bottom.

❒ Turn on the circuit breaker and light switch.
NOTE: Sensor has about 1 1/2 minutes warm up period
before it will detect motion. When first turned

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 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.
