1. Installation

CAUTION: Always turn the circuit breaker off when wir-
ing the fixture.

For motion sensing,

put the ON-TIME switch on the bottom of

the sensor in the 1, 5, or 20 minute position. When motion is detected,

the lights will come on the selected time. Note: The photocell keeps

the lights from turning on in daylight.
To keep lights on all night,

flip the light switch off for 1 second

then back on. To return the sensor to the motion sensing mode, flip

the light switch off for 1 second then back on. At dawn, the control

will return to the motion sensing mode and shut off.
For accent lighting,

set the D

switch to the 3, 6, or

Dusk-to-Dawn setting. The lights will turn on dim at sundown for

the set time. When motion is sensed the lights will turn on full bright

for the set ON-TIME period. The lights will return to dim during the

period.

4. Operation

Turn the power back on at the circuit breaker. Turn the light

switch on.
Note:

When first turned on wait about 1

/

2

minutes for the circuitry

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

position. You can now walk in front of the unit and the lights will come

on for about 5 seconds. The TEST mode works both day and night.
Walk through the coverage area and point the sensor to obtain the

desired coverage area. Adjust sensitivity as needed. Use RANGE

BOOST only if required.

The coverage area for the sensor is shown in Figure 2. The sensor

should be aimed so that the motion to be detected is in front of and

across the coverage area. The sensor should be aimed looking out

at a horizontal angle. To reduce false triggering, point the sensor

away from traffic areas, air conditioners, dryer vents, water pools,

or anything which may move or change temperature rapidly.

This light control automatically turns on lights when motion is

detected. On-time is selectable from Off, 1, 5, or 20 minutes. A

photocell keeps the lights off during the day. Patented D

timer provides accent lighting.

CAUTION: Do not mount the sensor above or touching
the lamps. Keep regular PAR-38 lamps at least 1" (25 mm)
from the sensor. Halogen lamps should be kept at least
2" (51 mm) from the sensor. The sensor bottom must be
facing down for best coverage and to avoid water damage
and electrical shock.
Note:

For under-eave installation, rotate the sensor head 180° by

bending the sensor towards the clamp bracket. Rotate the sensor

bottom clockwise away from the bracket.
