Model SL-5210

Features

• Turns on lighting when motion is detected.

• Automatically turns lighting off.

• Photocell keeps the lighting off during daylight hours.

Requirements

• The light control requires 120-volts AC.

• If you want to use Manual Override, the control must be wired through a wall switch.

• Some codes require installation by a qualified

electrician.

• Switch Module mounts into a standard 4" x 4" junction box.

The SL-5210 package includes:

• The Sensor Module and Switch Module

• Three wire nuts

• Two sensor module screws

Typical Installation

OPERATION

Mode: On-Time: Works: Day Night

Test Normal Manual

Note: When ﬁrst turned on wait about 11/2 minutes for the

circuitry to calibrate.

Put the ON-TIME switch on the bottom of the sensor in the TEST position.

Put the ON-TIME switch in the 1, 5, or 10 minute position.

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.

off for one minute, then back on. After the calibration time (11/2 min.) the control will be in the AUTO mode.

INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT: TURN OFF THE POWER TO THE LIGHTING CIRCUIT AT THE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE BOX to avoid electrical shock.

❒ Remove the ﬁxture and ﬁxture strap (if present) and dis-

connect the wiring.

❒ Plug the sensor cord into the switch module. The sensor

cord's plug is polarized for proper installation.

❒ Place the Switch Module into the junction box. Before

mounting the ﬁxture cover, make sure that the cord is ﬂat and smoothly placed against the wall so that the cord will not be damaged when the ﬁxture is re-installed. Make sure that the protective sleeve over the sensor cord extends slightly beyond the ﬁxture cover.

❒ Reinstall the ﬁxture.

Turn power off before wiring!

Typical Wiring

• Connect the RED light control wire to the BLACK ﬁxture

wire.

• Connect the BLACK house wire to the BLACK light control

wire.

• Connect the WHITE light control wire to both the WHITE house wire and the WHITE ﬁxture wire.

If used, join the grounding wire from the power source to the ﬁxture grounding wire (usually a bare wire). Secure at the junction box grounding screw. Connect additional lamps

(up to 500 W.) to the white and red control wires.

Mounting Sensor

❒ Attach the sensor module to the wall with the screws

provided. Place the sensor below or to the side of the ﬁxture. It may be necessary to tilt the sensor head up while mounting.

Important Installation Information

When installing the sensor, make sure the wire comes out of the bottom of the bracket and forms a “drip loop” (shown above). This will prevent water from entering the sensor head or junction box.

TEST AND ADJUSTMENT

❒ Turn on the circuit breaker and light switch.

The detector is less sensitive to motion directly towards it and more sensitive to across motion.

NOTE: Sensor has a 1 1/2 minute warm up period before

it will detect motion. When ﬁrst turned on or when switching modes, wait 1 1/2 minutes.

❒ Turn the SENSITIVITY (SENS) control to the mid position

and the ON-TIME control to the TEST position.

ON-TIME

10 5 1 TEST

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

❒ Walk through the coverage area

noting where you are when the lights turn on. Move the sensor head up, down, or sideways to change the coverage area.

❒ Adjust the SENSITIVITY as

needed. Too much sensitivity may increase false triggering.

❒ Set the amount of TIME you want

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

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

SYMPTOM Light will not

come on.

Light comes on in daylight.

Light comes on for no apparent reason.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

1. Light switch is turned off.

2. Flood light is loose or burned out.

3. Fuse is blown or circuit breaker is turned off.

4. Daylight turn-off is in effect (recheck after dark).

5. Incorrect circuit wiring, if this is a new installation.

6. Re-aim the sensor to cover desired area.

1. Light control may be installed in a relatively dark location.

2. Light control is in Test (Set control switch to an ON-TIME position).

1. Light control may be sensing small animals or automobile trafﬁc (re-aim sensor).

2. Sensitivity is set too high (Reduce sensitivity).

SYMPTOM Light stays on

continuously.

Light flashes on and off.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

1. A sensor is positioned too close to the lamp or pointed at nearby objects that cause heat to trig ger the sensor sensor or nearby objects).

2. Light control is pointed toward a heat source like an air vent, dryer vent, or brightly-painted heat-reﬂective surface

1. Heat or light from the lamp may be turning the light control on and off (Reposition the sensor away from the light).

2. Heat being reﬂected from other objects may be affecting the sensor (Reposition sensor).

3. Light control is in the Test mode and warming up

(Flashing is normal under these conditions).

(Reposition the lamp away from the

(Reposition sensor).
