10. Twist on wire nuts, secure with
electrical tape.
11. Put round gasket between sensor
assembly and mounting plate. Use
keyhole slots to secure sensor assembly
to mounting plate. Use silicone sealant
around all openings if necessary.
12. Aim sensor. Perform Walk Test, see
section, “Aiming and Walk Testing”
on page 9.
13. Put lens cover back on Tuff Dome
using (3) screws.
14. Turn on power.

Vandalproof Installation
Screws:
Tuff Dome sensors are shipped with
stainless steel screws holding the
plastic lens on the front of the sensor.
If desired, you may install vandalproof
screws and tighten with Hex wrench
(screws and wrench supplied).
Plugs:
Tough Dome has three 1/2” plugs in
the die cast housing of the sensor. A
unique feature of these plugs is that
you may insure a vandalproof case
by removing the plugs, turning them
around, and re-installing the plugs from
the back of the Tuff Dome sensor (if you
are not using the holes for
lighting fixtures).
The reversed plugs do not have
screwdriver slots which reduce the
chance of tampering.

Wiring more than one sensor
together is recommended only for
the experienced installer because
it becomes difficult to trobleshoot.
Single sensors that control their
own lights pinpoint movement
more accurately and operate
better.
Sensors should not be installed on
a circuit that also feeds motor
loads such as HVAC equipment,
kitchen appliances, or garage door
openers. If voltage varies signifi-
cantly from 120 volts, sensors
may malfunction.
