Technical Tips:
Lights Turn On For Unknown Reasons
1. Lights may turn on occassionally
during rain, snow and windstorms
because the sensor is detecting
changes in temperature. If this is a
constant problem, mount the sensor
in a more protected area.
2. Tilt the sensor lower - it may be
seeing distant objects moving.
3.You may not be aware that animals
have triggered sensor. Check sensor
aiming to reduce nuisance triggering
or mask the lower part of the lens
with opaque weatherproof tape.
4. The sensor may turn on
occassionally during voltage surges.
5. A possible source of “mysterious”
sensor activations are strong local
radio signals. Check for nearby CB,
Ham, VHF radio transmitters or
Cellular telephones. The sensor may
be activated, but will not be perma-
nently impaired by these signals.
5. Check other solutions mentioned
on pages 12 &13.
