The TIME setting controls how long the unit remains illuminated following activation and after
all motion ceases.
(See diagram E the time adjustment knob is indicated by the "Clock" symbol).
The minimum time (fully anti-clockwise) is approx. 5 seconds, whilst the maximum time (fully
clockwise) is approx. 18 minutes. Set the control to the desired setting between these limits*.
* When using compact fluorescent lamps set the ON time to a minimum of 10 minutes.
This will increase the lamp life but will not detract from the energy saving from using
this type of lamp.
The DUSK control determines the level of darkness required for the unit to start operating.
The setting is best achieved by the procedure below:
(See diagram E. the Dusk adjustment knob is indicated by the ‘Moon’ and ‘Sun’ symbols).
Set the DUSK control knob fully anti clockwise. Wait until darkness falls.
When the ambient light level reaches the level of darkness at which you wish the lamp to become
operative (i.e. at dusk) SLOWLY rotate the control in a clockwise direction until a point is reached
where the lamp illuminates. Leave the control set at this point.
At this position the unit should become operative at approximately the same level of darkness
each evening. Observe the operation of the unit. If the unit is starting to operate too early
(i.e. when it is quite light) adjust the control slightly anti-clockwise. If the unit starts to operate
too late (i.e. when it is very dark). Adjust the control slightly clockwise.
Continue to adjust until the unit operates as desired.
Masking the Sensor Lens
To restrict the sensor coverage, preventing detection in unwanted areas, mask the sensor lens
using the masking label provided in the accessory pack (see diagram F). For your information,
the top section of the lens covers long range detection, the bottom covers short range. Similarly
the left and right lens sections cover the left and right detection areas respectively.
Manual Override Mode
The light can be switched on for longer time periods by use of the Manual Override Mode.
This can be activated at night by using the internal wall switch or circuit breaker.
Switch the internal wall switch/circuit breaker twice (OFF/ON, OFF/ON) within 2 seconds.
The unit will now illuminate continuously for the user defined time, between 1 – 8 hours, or
until the unit is switched back into auto mode. The ON time can be set by rotating the centre
adjustment knob as required. See diagram E. This time adjustment is factory set to 1 hour
(Fully anti-clockwise is 1 hour, fully clockwise is 8 hours).
Note: If the light is still ON at dawn, before the set time expires, it will automatically switch OFF.
To switch the unit back into Auto Mode, flick the internal wall switch/circuit breaker OFF/ON once
within 1 second. The unit will return to Auto Mode.
