Test Mode
The Test Mode will allow you to test the sensor during the day
regardless of the photocell setting. To enter Test Mode, turn time
setting to 5 sec on the unit. Turn power off for 10 secs then back on.
There is a 30 second warm-up period, then the Test Mode starts.
During the warm-up, the lights stay on continuously and LEDs are
off. During Test Mode the LEDs remain off. The sensor will stay in
Test Mode until the detection zone is vacated for one minute.
During the Test Period, the sensor will keep lights on for 5 seconds
each time it detects movement in its detection zone. Perform the
walk test and make any adjustments needed. Vacate the detection
zone for one minute or more to end Test Mode. Scanning LEDs will
appear when test mode ends. Set back to desired time setting after
testing complete.
Manual Override Mode
The STL360 has a “protected” Manual Override that requires a
double-flip of the light switch so momentary power problems do
not interfere with normal sensor operation.
By flipping the switch that operates the sensor twice
(off-on-off-on)
within 2 seconds you will override the sensor to keep lights on
continuously until dawn.
If you set the Manual Override Mode during daylight, the sensor will
be prepared to turn on at dusk and remain on until dawn. This is a
handy feature if you leave home for the day and you want the lights
on to greet you when you return. When the sensor is in “ Ready for
Manual Override Mode” the middle LED will be on.
To Resume Automatic Mode
Switch OFF the power for at least 10 seconds, then turn it ON
again. Sensor will reset to Automatic Mode after completing the
warm-up period.
Daytime
(24-HOUR)
Operation of Manual Override
If you set Manual Override while set to 24 hour operation, lights
will come on and remain on continuously. Lights will not turn off
at dawn.
WALK TESTING
STL360’s full coverage pattern reduces the need for aiming and
adjustment. The purpose of the Walk Test is to check and adjust the
coverage pattern. The STL360 must be manually set into Test Mode
(explained at left)
.
To enter Test Mode
Turn Time setting to 5 seconds and turn off sensor for 10 seconds.
After a warm up period of 30 seconds the LEDs will be off.
1. Aim the sensor at the traffic pattern you want to detect. Sensor
will detect any movement ACROSS its pattern most effectively.
2. Start outside the pattern and walk across the pattern until the
lights go on. As distance from the sensor increases, it will take
more movement to be detected.
3. Adjust sensor aiming as necessary to improve coverage. Make
sure sensor is level.
4. Sensitivity may be decreased with the SENS knob to detect a
limited area or if the sensor is being activated by wind, foliage,
traffic or animals, or increased to cover a larger area.
(See page 6
to adjust sensor settings.)
The lens mask can also be used to
drastically reduce coverage, or allow undetected movement
from some directions.
5. STL360 is factory set for night only operation. For 24 hour
operation, turn the photocell control completely toward the
SUN/MOON setting. Turn counter clockwise to have the sensor
come on later at dusk, clockwise to have it come on earlier.
6. Repeat steps 1-5 until you are satisfied with coverage. Vacate the
detection zone for 1 minute and then turn the settings back to
desired time delay. Your sensor is now ready for operation.
TECHNICAL TIPS
Lights Do Not Turn Off
1. Make sure that the sensor is not in Manual Override Mode. Turn
sensor OFF for 10 seconds, then back ON. The Sensor will be
go through 30 second warm up period where the lights are on
then will go into Automatic Mode with lights off and ready to
detect movement.
