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.

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.

Controls

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.

WIRE THE LIGHT CONTROL.

❒ Turn power off at the fuse or circuit breaker. ❒ 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.

❒ Twist the junction box wires and fixture wires together

as shown. Secure with wire connectors.

❒ 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.

To avoid water damage and electrical shock, keep lamp holders 30° below horizontal.

Keep lamps at least 1" (2.5 cm) from the sensor. Do not al-

❒ 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.

TEST AND ADJUSTMENT

❒ 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 on, wait about 1 1/2 minutes.

❒ Turn the RANGE control to the mid position and the

ON-TIME control to the TEST position.

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.

❒ Loosen the clamp screw in

the sensor ball joint and gently rotate the sensor.

❒ Walk through the coverage

area noting where you are when the lights turn on (also, the LED will flash several times when motion is detected). Move the sensor head up, down, or sideways to change the coverage area. Keep the

sensor at least 1" (2.5 cm) away from the lamps.

❒ Adjust the RANGE as

needed. RANGE set too high may increase false triggering.

❒ Secure the sensor head by

tightening the clamp screw.

Do not overtighten the screw.

❒ Set the amount of TIME you

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