Heath Zenith PF-4160-AB - Manual (Page 4)

OPTIONAL WIRING
This fixture is provided with a sensor rated for 500 Watts. Since the fixture is only rated 100
Watts, 400 Watts of additional lighting may be controlled by this sensor.
When determining what a fixture is rated for, do not simply look at the rating on the lamp in
the fixture. Look at the marking which specifies the maximum lamp wattage for which the
fixture is suitable.
Once you have selected the fixtures to be connected and determined their maximum ratings,
add these ratings up. For instance, if you have 3 fixtures rated 100 Watts, 150 Watts, and
75 Watts respectively, you have a total load of 325 Watts.
Wiring Diagram 1 – When wiring to control a standard light fixture: Strip the motion sensor’s
red wire and connect to the standard light’s black wire. Connect all white wires together.
Total fixture ratings must not exceed 500 Watts (4.1 A).
Wiring Diagram 2 – When wiring to control another motion sensing light fixture (Master /
Slave): Strip the red wire in both light fixtures. Connect the red wire of the controlling (master)
fixture to the red and black wires of the controlled (slave) fixture. Connect all white wires
together. Total fixture ratings must not exceed 500 Watts (4.1 A).

It is also possible to wire two motion lights so that either fixture will turn on both lights at the
same time (dual master system). It is recommended that only people with plenty of electrical
experience attempt this configuration. Please call our customer service number (1-800-858-
8501 - English speaking only) before attempting this wiring.
If the dual master wiring is not
done correctly, it can destroy both motion sensing fixtures and void your warranty.
