• Locate sensor away from moving objects such as
trees, large shrubs and street traffic.
• Do not install more than one motion activated
floodlight on one wall switch.
MOUNTING AND WIRING YOUR FIXTURE
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Disconnect
power at fuse or circuit breaker before installing
or servicing.
NOTE:
Fixture can be wall or eave mounted.
NOTE:
Junction box must be at least 1-1/2 inch in
depth for proper installation
(Fig. 2).
1.
Match up screws on the floodlight coverplate (C)
with the junction box screw holes. (If necessary,
lightly tap selected coverplate holes with a hammer
and screwdriver to open them.)
2.
Thread fixture wires through coverplate gasket (C)
(Fig. 3).
3.
Position the gasket (C) on the coverplate and
connect the black wire from the fixture to the black
house supply wire and the white wire from the
fixture to the white supply wire using the wire nuts
(E) provided. Attach the ground wire coming from
your house to the copper ground wire from the
fixture using wire nut (E) provided. If no house
ground wire is available, attach the copper ground
wire from the fixture to the junction box if it is metal
and grounded. If junction box is not metal and no
house ground wire is available, an alternative ground
source must be used for safe operation (Fig. 4).
4.
Attach fixture (A) to the junction box with two of the
screws (D) provided. Either (2) #6 or (2) #8 screws
will work with most standard junction boxes.
5.
Apply silicone caulk around the edges of the
coverplate to provide a watertight seal from rain
and moisture.
6.
Turn on power at mainfuse/breaker box.
OPERATING YOUR FIXTURE
1.
Move slide switch on bottom of the sensor
to “TEST”. Set sensitivity knob to medium
(halfway) (Fig. 5).
2.
Turn on the power to fixture. Allow fixture to warm
up approximately 90 seconds before testing. (Lights
may not come on during warm-up period.)
3.
Aim sensor head toward desired detection area,
maintaining a 15° down angle to allow moisture
to drain.
NOTE:
Maintain air spacing between lamps and
sensor head, at least 1 inch. Make sure sensor
head is positioned with control switches facing
towards the ground.
4.
Walk across the detection zone at the farthest
distance you wish your detector to detect motion.
5.
Adjust sensitivity until you get desired results. Light
will turn off 4 seconds after all motion stops.
NOTE:
For maximum range performance, allow fixture
to operate in any mode (with power to the unit) for at
least 48 hours.
6.
Move slide switch to 4 min. or 12 min. (AUTO
mode). Light may turn on for the selected time, and
then will operate at dusk in the AUTO setting.
NOTE:
Do not position lamp housing within two inches
of house.
REPLACING THE BULBS
NOTE:
Disconnect power and allow fixture to cool
before removing burned-out bulbs.
1.
Remove screws from behind lens frame.
2.
Push old bulb into spring-loaded socket and pull
opposite end out of the other socket.
3.
Using a clean cloth or gloves, remove new bulb
from package and protective wrap.
NOTE:
Never touch bulb with bare hands as oil from
your skin can cause premature failure.
4.
To install bulb, position bulb into spring-loaded
socket and push bulb toward socket until it
depresses. Position other end of bulb into stationary
socket (opposite socket). Be sure each end of bulb
is securely positioned against the socket.

5.
Replace glass lens cover. Insert and tighten the
screws that secure the glass lens cover.
NOTE:
Make sure your lamp housing is not positioned
within two inches of house.
CAUTION: When replacing bulb in fixture, always
replace with the same wattage bulb or a lower
wattage bulb. DO NOT replace with a bulb of
greater wattage than specified on the fixture.
To do so could create a fire hazard and/or shorten
the life of the bulb.

Outdoor Light
Comes On For No
Apparent Reason
At Night
There is motion in the detection zone.
• Make sure the sensor is not picking up moving objects such as
trees, traffic, etc.
TEST FOR YOURSELF.
• Cover the sensor lens with cardboard to prevent sensor from
detecting motion. If the light stays off, something in the detection
zone is triggering the sensor.
• If this is the case, reduce the sensitivity.
• Reposition the sensor.
* If the light stays on with the sensor lens covered, contact
customer service.
Light Stays On At
Night And Does
Not Turn Off
There is motion in the detection zone.
• Make sure the sensor is not picking up moving objects such as
trees, traffic, etc.
• Reduce the sensitivity.
• Reposition the sensor.
Unit is in override mode (if there is no motion).
• Turn the light switch to the OFF position for 90 seconds, and then
turn back to the ON postion. This will send the unit back into the
“Auto” mode.
* If the light stays on with the sensor lens covered, contact
customer service.
