Mounting the Photocell
To mount directly to a wall surface use the included screws (AA) as
shown, suitable for mounting within 12 in. to 48 in. (0.3 m to 1.2 m)
of the ground. When installing the screws, the spacing between the
screw centers is 3.35 in. (85 mm). See the template (D) for correct
spacing. Hang the transformer (A) onto the screws (AA).
Mount the photocell (B) bracket on a wall or other solid surface with
the screws (BB)
provided. Snap the sensor into the bracket. Route or
coil the excess wire to protect it from lawn mowers, trimmers, etc.
Avoid pointing the sensor at nighttime light sources such as
windows, porch lights, and street lights.
Placing the sensor in areas receiving less sunlight at dusk (east side
of house, behind trees and bushes, under a deck) will have the
transformer come on earlier in the evening. Mounting the photocell in
brighter locations will have the transformer come on when it has
become darker out. The location, position and orientation of the
photocell can be adjusted until the transformer turns on at the
desired light level.
If the wires to the photocell are cut or broken, the photocell can
be replaced. Unscrew the photocell connector cover from the
transformer and pull the bi-pin connector out of the mating socket.
The replacement part is inserted into the socket and the cap is
screwed back onto the socket to provide a water tight connection.
Note that the bi-pin connector is polarized and can be inserted into
the socket only one way. The photo eye operation can be tested by
turning the transformer mode to TEST.
Replacement photocell is available in the store.
Cover the connection hole with the dust cap when no photocell
control wire is connected.
Once all fixtures are in place and you are satisfied with their
locations, the cable may be covered with mulch or buried up to
6 in. (15 cm) deep. Leave about 12 in. (30 cm) of cable after the
last fixture.
