Locations Near Roads
Cars and passing traffic may activate the sensor if it is aimed at the road.
To Improve Performance in Difficult Locations:
•
Reduce sensitivity by turning the SENS knob counterclockwise,
•
Mask lens in the direction of
the traffic using the lens mask
provided or opaque tape.
(Lens Mask can be broken
along lines to desired size)
•
Make sure that sensor is not aimed
at traffic. The sensor should
be aimed down so that the
maximum range of the sensor
ends at least 20’ from the road.
This will avoid detection of
passing trucks and cars, or the
air currents they create.

SENS
Mount Level
The sensor should be mounted level
from side to side and pointed at the
area where you desire coverage. If
tilted, part of the detection zone
may be high in the air over people’s
heads.
Check that movement is not directly
towards sensor. Sensor will see
movement ACROSS its pattern
move quickly. Check that move-
ment far away and directly towards
sensor is not entirely within one
zone. To fix, change the sensor
angle or location.
If the sensor is located over a
pathway so all movement is directly
toward it, range may appear limited.
“Micro Adjust” sensor by moving
sideways 1/4” or so, which may
reposition the zones enough to
allow earlier detection.
Choose a Protected Location
Mount sensor in protected area.
The more protected the mounting
location, the less chance of lights
turning on occasionally during
rain, snow and windstorms. This
could happen because the sensor
is detecting dramatic changes in
temperature.
