Choosing a Location
The best location is where the sensor can “see” all paths
of movement. The sensor may be wall or soffit mounted.
As distance from the sensor increases, larger movement
will be required for detection. For instance, at 10 feet, a
half step will be enough, while at 50 feet several steps will
be necessary for detection.
How large an area does STL360 protect?
Two powerful detectors combine to give the STL360 180°
x 60’ long forward range plus superb 360° downward
detection below and to all sides.
Mounting Height
Mounting at 6-12’ above the ground allows maximum
range. If the sensor is mounted above 15’ high, the
usable range is reduced.
Location Tips
Difficult Locations
Sensor may be triggered by
unwanted movement or heat source,
such as a swaying tree, road traffic,
dryer vent, swimming pool or hot tub.
To Improve Performance in Difficult Locations:
• Reduce sensitivity by
turning the SENS knob
counterclockwise,
and/or…
• Mask lens in the direction
of the unwanted movement
or heat source using the lens
mask provided or opaque tape
Mounting Stability
• Mount sensor on stable surface.
Do not mount on a tree or pole
that will move in the wind.
• Make sure sensor and lights are
mounted firmly. If they move when
touched, tighten all screws.
Light vs. Sensor Position
• Make sure heat from lights is not
triggering sensor. Sensor must be
located below and as far away
as possible from its lights.
