• 

All wiring MUST comply with local 
electrical codes and should be installed 
by qualified electrician.

• 

Read entire Installation Manual before 
proceeding.

TURN OFF POWER BY REMOVING 
POWER FUSE OR TURNING OFF CIRCUIT 
BREAKER BEFORE INSTALLATION.

• Total lighting load to Gotcha must not 

exceed: 

500W incandescent @ 120V 

1000W incandescent @ 277V   

500W LED @ 120V with 0.8 pF Driver 

1000W LED @ 277V with 0.8pF Driver 

To switch more wattage, an electrician 
can install an additional relay.

Gotcha! Mounting and Wiring

3

Cautions

• Line Carrier Remote Control Systems 

such as X-10, Leviton or Radio Shack 
are incompatible with sensors and can 
cause false activations.

• Do not install on circuits feeding motor 

loads such as kitchen appliances, HVAC 
equipment, washer/ dryer or garage 
door openers.

• Sensor functions best when movement 

is across its detection pattern, not 
towards the sensor.

• Mount 6’-12’ high for optimum range 

and direction.

Mounting(GT500R)

Gotcha floodlight kits come pre-wired and assembled on the RAB CU4 EZ plate,
allowing for mounting on round, rectangular or octagonal surface or recessed box.

GT500R Surface Junction Box Installation:

1. 

Attach 

Cross Bar

 to 

Surface  Junction Box

 using three bar screws (supplied). 

2. 

Bring sensor wires through the 

Surface Adaptor Plate

3. 

Make connections to the supply wires in the junction box according to the 

“Basic Kit Wiring” diagram on pg 5.

4. 

Push connected wires into the 

Surface Junction box

5. 

Place the 

O-Ring

 over the  

1/4-20 Screw

 and insert into the center of the 

cover plate and tighten.  Use 

Cap 

to cover opening.
