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.
DualBrite® Timer
Light comes on half bright for selected time after dusk
(Off, 3 hr., 6 hr., until dawn). Selecting OFF disables
this feature. The motion sensing features will continue
to work as described in this manual. 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.
❒ Twist the junction box wires and fixture wires together
as shown. Secure with wire connectors.

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.

Mount the light Control
❒ Align the light control cover plate and cover plate

❒ 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.
❒ Push the rubber plug firmly 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
or fuse.
❒ Remove the existing light fixture.
❒ Install the mounting strap as shown using two screws
that fit your junction box.
❒ The plastic hanger can be used to hold the fixture
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.
To avoid water damage and electrical shock,
keep lamp holders 30° below horizontal.
Keep lamps at least
1" (2.5 cm) from the

❒ 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
floodlamps, do not overtighten.

❒ 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 first turned
on, wait 1 1/2 minutes.

Bottom of Sensor
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.
