ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Important to Know

1. This fixture requires a 120 VAC, 60 Hz power source.
2. For general safety and to avoid any possible damage to the sensor, be sure the power is switched off before adjustment.
3. Motion sensor: turns light ON automatically when motion is detected and turns light OFF automatically when motion stops.
4. Photocell keeps the light OFF during daylight hours.

Note: Fixture can be wall mounted or eave mounted.

Light fixture and sensor should be mounted as shown above when installed (depending upon the type of installation)

Before installing the light fixture under an eave, 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-mounted only:

• Swing the sensor head towards the mounting bracket.
• Rotate the sensor head clockwise 180° so the controls face down.

Installation Steps

Turn off the power at the fuse or circuit box.

1. The fixture mounting bracket(A) is pre-assembled on the light fixture(B). Unscrew both the decorative cover(DD) and the fixture mounting screw(EE) in order to remove the mounting bracket(A).
2. Install the mounting strap(CC) to the outlet box with the stamped word “FRONT” facing away from the outlet box, using two mounting screws(AA) that best fit the outlet box. Mounting bracket(A) should sit flush against the wall surface when secured. (Choose one matching pair of suitable mounting screws(AA) from the 3 pairs provided.)
3. Pull out the source wires from the outlet box. Connect the black wire from the outlet box to the “L” interface of the terminal station on the mounting bracket(A). Connect the white wire from the outlet box to the “N” interface of the terminal station on the mounting bracket(A). Carefully tuck the wires back into the outlet box.
4. Place the mounting bracket(A) against the outlet box, insert the mounting bracket screw(BB) through the mounting bracket hole, and thread the mounting bracket screw(BB) into the center hole of the strap(CC). Tighten the mounting bracket screw(BB) securely. When mounting to a wall, the UP arrow must point upward. When mounting to an eave, the UP arrow must point toward the building.
5. Attach the back plate(B) of the light 5 fixture to the mounting bracket(A), and secure it with the fixture mounting screw(EE). Then push the decorative cover(DD) firmly into the fixture mounting screw(EE) hole on the light fixture.
6. With silicone caulking compound, caulk completely around where the mounting bracket meets the wall surface.

CAUTION: Be sure to caulk completely where the mounting bracket meets the wall surface to prevent water from seeping into the outlet box.

Adjusting the Sensor Head:

1. Aim the sensor head toward the desired detection area, maintaining a 5° – 40° downward angle to allow moisture to drain. Note: Make sure the sensor head is positioned with the control knob facing towards the ground. You can rotate the sensor head up and down to change the coverage area. Walk through the detection zone at the farthest distance you wish to detect motion.
2. A range set too high may increase false triggering.

Adjusting the Light Head:

1. Gently grasp the fight heads(C) and tilt them up or down, left or right to adjust the light coverage area. Keep the light heads at least 1″ (25mm)away from the sensor.
2. Keep the light heads 30° below horizontal to avoid water damage and electrical shock.

FUNCTION AND OPERATION

Sensitivity of Motion Sensor:

1. You can adjust the sensitivity of the motion sensor by using the “SENSITIVITY” selector located on the right side of the bottom surface of the sensor.
2. Adjust motion sensor sensitivity to HIGH (H), MEDIUM (M), or LOW (L) to achieve the desired performance.
3. Approximate range for each setting: 25 ft. (L), 45 ft. (M), 70 ft. (H).

Choose a mode by sliding the switch on the bottom of the sensor.

Note: When power is first applied, the light will turn on to 100% brightness. The sensor will take 30 seconds to warm up.

• Test mode (daytime or nighttime operation )

1. Slide the switch on the left side of the sensor to the “TEST” position.
2. With the power on, the light turns to low-level brightness automatically.
3. The light turns to high-level brightness when motion is detected, and stays on as long as the motion continues. Then it reverts back to low-level brightness about 5 seconds after motion is no longer detected.

Note: You can adjust the low-level (0~50%) and high-level (50~100%) brightness by using the brightness switch on the back plate.

• AUTO MODE (nighttime operation only)

1. To shift to “AUTO” mode, slide the Time Delay switch to the desired time setting (between 5 seconds and 5 minutes). At dusk, the light turns on to a pre-selected low-level brightness. When motion is detected, the light turns to pre-selected high-level brightness and stays on as long as motion continues. When the motion is no longer detected, the light at high-level brightness remains on for the predetermined time you set (5S/1M/3M/5M), and then switches back to low level automatically.
2. The light turns off automatically at dawn.

Note: You can adjust the low-level (0~50%) and high-level (50~100%) brightness by using the brightness switch on the back plate.

• CUSTOM SETTINGS MODE (nighttime operation only)

1. At dusk, the light will turn on to a pre-selected high-level brightness. And the light will turn off automatically at dawn.
2. To switch to the “AUTO” mode at the specified time, turn the wall switch “OFF” then turn it “ON” within 3 seconds at your specified time. And the light will switch to “AUTO” mode automatically at the specified time every night. The light turns off automatically at dawn. To revert to “CUSTOM SETTINGS” mode, turn the wall switch “OFF” then turn it “ON” within 5 seconds again.

Note: You can adjust the low-level (0~50%) and high-level (50~100%) brightness by using the brightness switch on the back plate.

Notes:

1. The sensitivity of the motion sensor will increase as the environmental temperature gets cooler. You may wish to make adjustments when the season changes. For best performance, gently clean the lens with a soft cloth every 1 or 2 months to assure maximum sensitivity.
2. For best performance, install the fixture at least 8 feet above the ground. At such a height, the fixture will provide a detection distance of up to 70 feet at 77 degrees Fahrenheit.
3. The sensor detects movement across a detection range of 240 degrees.
4. The sensor will be more sensitive to motion across its detection path than motion directly towards it.
5. To reduce possible nuisances, do not mount the fixture near a heat source like an air conditioner, vent, or furnace exhaust, or in a direction facing any reflecting object or other light source.
