INTRODUCTION
Your EVERSPRING MOTION SENSOR 500W
FLOODLIGHT is a unique lighting system for your home
or business. At night, the built-in passive infrared (PIR)
motion sensor turns on the floodlight when it detects
motion in its coverage area. During the day, the built-in
photocell sensor saves electricity by deactivating the
floodlight. Time and Lite adjustment functions let you
select how long and when the light will stay on after
activation. Two operation options let you choose:
Automatic Operation or Manual Override.
Note: Read this entire manual before you start to install the system.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
l
Do not install when it is raining.
l
Be sure to switch off power source before installing.
l
Make sure that the power wiring comes from circuit
with an external 16A miniature circuit breaker for the
short circuit protection or a suitable fuse.
l
Keep minimum 1m away from the lighted objects.
l
The unit can be installed only horizontally (FIGURE
1a), not vertically (FIGURE 1b).

IMPORTANT
Some local building codes may require installation of
this product by a qualified electrician.
Check your local codes as they apply to your situation.
If the house wiring is of aluminum, consult with an
electrician about proper wiring methods.
Maintenance or repairing work such as replacing
current fuse shall be done by a qualified electrician or
technician.
Before proceeding with the installation, TURN OFF THE
POWER TO THE LIGHTING CIRCUIT AT THE CIRCUIT
BREAKER OR FUSE BOX TO AVOID ELECTRICAL
SHOCK.
CHOOSING A MOUNTING LOCATION
l
For the best results, fix your sensors on a solid
surface, 1.8~2.5M above the ground.
l
For outdoor installation, a location under eaves is
preferable.
l
Avoid aiming the motion sensor at pools, heating
vents, air conditioners or objects that may change
temperature rapidly.
l
Do not allow sunlight to fall directly on the front of
unit.
l
Try to avoid pointing the unit at trees or shrubs or
where the motion of pets may be detected.
l
Prior to mounting, keep in mind that the motion
sensor is more sensitive to the motion, which is
across the detection field and less sensitive to the
motion, which moves directly towards the detector
(FIGURE 2).

BULB INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Always handle halogen bulbs with a soft cloth.
Do not touch the bulb with your bare hand as
it will shorten the life of the bulb.
(1) Do not touch the floodlight while it is in use or still
hot. Allow it to cool (about 5 minutes) before
touching it.
(2) Do not use halogen bulb rated higher than 500
watts.
(3) Disconnect the power cord or wall switch. Unscrew
retaining screw on the front of the floodlight. This will
release front surround (FIGURE 3).
FIGURE 3
(4) Raise front surround. Lift off retaining lugs (FIGURE
4).
FIGURE 4
(5) Unwrap halogen bulb, taking care that the fingers do
not touch the bulb. Push one end into either of the
spring loaded sockets. Locate the other end into the
other socket (FIGURE 5).

(6) Carefully replace front surround making sure that
the seal is correctly positioned. Screw up tightly
(FIGURE 6).
