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. Also for proper
under eave operation, remove the protective backing
from the light shield and stick on as shown below.

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
CAUTION: Keep the sensor at least 1" (25 mm)
away from the bulbs.
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 1" (25 mm) from combustible materials. Do not aim at objects closer than 3 ft. (1 m).
• Use only T3, 150W (max.) tungsten halogen 120 VAC
bulbs.
For easy installation, select an existing light operated
by a wall switch for replacement.
For best performance, mount the fixture about 8 ft.
(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
For eave mount only:
❒ Swing the sensor head towards the clamp screw
joint.

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.
Bulb Installation and Replacement
NOTE: Bulbs are included, but you will need to install
them
NOTE: When replacing bulbs, turn power off and let
the fixture cool.
❒ Open glass covers. To remove the old bulb push the
bulb towards the right (with fixture as shown) until
the left side of the bulb is clear of the left socket.
❒ To install a bulb, push the bulb into the right socket
so the bulb fits completely into the left socket.
❒ Check that the bulb is seated properly.
❒ Close the glass covers.

Wire the Light Control
WARNING: Turn power off at circuit breaker
or fuse.
❒ Remove the existing light fixture.
❒ Install mounting strap to junction box using screws
appropriate for 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.
❒ Thread all fixture wires through the large holes in
the gasket as shown.
❒ Connect the junction box wires to the light fixture
wires as shown. Twist together and secure with
wire connectors.
Mount the Light Control
❒ Place the mounting bolt through the front of the
junction box cover. Push the small gasket hole over
the mounting screw.
❒ Make sure the wire connectors and wires are inside
the junction box. Align the mounting screw with the
center hole in the mounting strap. Secure the fixture
to the mounting strap.
Push the rubber plug
over the mounting screw.
Keep bulbs at least 1" (25
mm) from the sensor.

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 first turned
on, wait 1 1/2 minutes.
NOTE: Meets the ENERGY STAR® guidelines when
DualBrite® function is off and ON-TIME is 1 or 5 minutes
and when used with 120 W Max bulbs.
❒ Turn the RANGE control to the medium position
(halfway between MIN and MAX), DualBrite® to OFF,
and the ON-TIME control to the TEST position.
NOTE:
If fixture is mounted higher than 8 ft. (2.4 m), aiming
the sensor down will reduce coverage distance.
The detector is less sensitive to motion directly towards it.

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
