MOTION SENSOR OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: Read before using fixture. Retain for future reference.
The motion sensor on this fixture has a built in dusk-to-Dawn sensor that automatically disables
the motion sensor during daylight hours regardless of motion detection.
1.The motion sensor must be tested before setting the Time and sensitivity levels. The TEST
option is located on the TIMER control knob on the underside of the sensor head. To test the
fixture, switch the wall switch that controls power to the fixture to the ON position and turn
the rotary knob to the “TEST” area. During test mode. The lights will come on for 20 seconds,
regardless of motion detection or the time of day. The light will shut off automatically after20
seconds. Leave the rotary knob in the “TEST” area and test the sensitivity by crossing in the
path of the sensor. The light will come on only if it senses movement. Once movement stops, it
will turn off in 5 seconds. The test is now complete.
2.Once the fixture has been tested for proper operation and sensitivity, rotate the TIMER control
knob past the “Auto” setting into the timer settings. The timer settings indicate how long the light
stays on after the PIR senses motion. Rotating this knob clockwise raises the stay on time of the
motion sensor for up to 10minutes .Rotatingthe knob counterclockwise shorten the stay on time
to as close as 10seconds(can’t past Auto position). It may be necessary to adjust the TIMER
knob several times until the desired ON time is achieved.
3.Rotate the TIMER control knob to the “D2D”position, the light turns on at dusk and off at dawn
automatically, regardless of the presence of motion. The “D2D” setting ensures lights are non-
operational in daylight and only function at night.
4.The control knob located on the opposite side is marked SENSITIVITY, which determines the
degree of motion detection. Rotating this knob clockwise raises the sensitivity of the motion
sensor for up to 60 ft. of distance .Rotating the knob counterclockwise lowers the sensitivity
down to as close as 10 ft. It may be necessary to adjust the “SENSITIVITY” knob several times
until the desired setting is achieved.
NOTE:
The higher sensitivity level increases the likelihood of a false activation being triggered.
For maximum range performance, allow the fixture to operate in any setting (with power) for at
least 48 hours.
5.The 180 degree coverage of the motion sensor is measured side to side. Therefore, the sensor
will better detect motion across the field of view (side-to-side), rather than motion coming
straight at the sensor (in-and-out). Adjust the motion sensor head so that it detects motion
moving across the cover age area. The position of the sensor head should not exceed 45
degrees from horizontal.Do not aim the motion sensor at a body of water, bushes or plants that
may move in the wind, pedestrian traffic,moving cars, etc., as this will trigger the motion sensor.
NOTE:
if the Sensor arm becomes loose, it will not hold the sensor head at the joint screw on the
sensor arm.
6. When the TIMER control knob be set at the Timer area (between “Auto” and “10’”) ,to control
the light from inside the home, activate manual override mode by toggling the wall light switch
OFF and ON within 2 seconds. The security light will turn on and stay on for approximately 8
hours, or until the Dusk-to-Dawn sensor detects light in the morning. Once the Dusk-to-Dawn
sensor detects light, the manual override mode will automatically go back to its original settings
of the AUTO motion sensor.
