Field of View Adjustment

If the sensor is “seeing” out

through a doorway into a hallway

or “seeing” undesired areas, simply

cover part of the sensor lens with

opaque white tape or a paper label.

Clear tape may be used, but it limits

detection only partially. Test that the

portion of the lens covered limits

detection as desired and does not

reduce detection in other areas.

Removing the Adjustment

Access Cover:

This cover is tamperproof and can

not be removed if the switch cover

Plate is attached. The cover has two

“ears” that hook under the cover

plate and prevent tampering. To

remove the cover insert a screw-

driver into the latch and pull forward.

Time Delay Adjustment

The time delay adjustment can be

set so the lights turn off from 8

seconds minimum to 15 minutes

maximum after the room is vacated

(approximate).

Walk Test

To test the detection pattern of the

LOS800, make no motion for 30

seconds. Move sideways up to 12”.

The red LED flashes once every 4

seconds when turned on initially

and twice every second to show

detection.

Lights do Not Turn On

1. Check that:

• 

the lamps and fixtures work;

• 

wiring exactly matches the 

wiring diagram;

• 

wiring polarity is correct;

• 

power is on;

• 

sensor has warmed up for 3 

minutes;

• 

off/auto switch is not OFF

2. Make sure sensor’s view of the

room is not blocked

Lights do Not Turn Off

1. Check that the Time delay control

is set to minimum.

2. Stay completely out of the protec-

tion pattern to avoid activation.

3. Make sure sensor is not seeing

movement in an adjacent area

through a doorway or other opening.

4. Make sure unit is not aimed at

something that would move or cause

a temperature change such as hot

water pipes, air conditioners or 

heating vents.

5. Check that the wattage controlled

does not exceed the maximum limits.

Lights Go On and Off Quickly

1. Check that wattage controlled

does not exceed maximum limits.

2. Certain energy saving fluorescent

lamps strobe when turned on within

a minute of being turned off.

Lights Go On for “No Reason”

1. Look for sources of electrical

noise such as fans or air conditioners

on the same circuit or nearby. If 

possible, unplug or move the noise

sources.

2. Check if sensor is “seeing” into

adjacent rooms or hallways. Mask

sensor lens in that direction with

opaque tape.

3. Check if sensor is “seeing”

heaters or air conditioning vents.

Mask sensor lens if necessary.

4. Make sure unit is at room temper-

ature. If it was installed immediately

after being in an extremely hot or

cold environment, wait an hour for it

to adjust.
