masking the lens with tape in the
direction of the light or reflection
(see section number 4 on Field of

Check the wattage controlled does
not exceed maximum limits.

Look for sources of electrical noise
such as fans or air conditioners
on the same circuit or nearby. If

Check if sensor is “seeing” into
adjacent rooms or hallways. Mask
sensor lens in that direction with
opaque tape.

Check if sensor is “seeing” heaters
or air conditioning vents. Mask
sensor lens if necessary.
