STEALTH-IN-1114
1.
Make sure that the sensor is not in Manual Override Mode. Turn sensor
OFF for 10 seconds, then back ON. The Sensor will be go through 30
second warm up period where the lights are one then will go into
Automatic Mode with lights off and ready to detect movement.
2.
Make sure that the sensor is not in Evening Timer Mode. Turn power OFF
for 10 seconds (see # 1).
3.
Make sure sensor is not aimed at or mounted over something that
would move or change temperature such as waving branches, water, air
conditioners, windows or heating vents even on neighboring property.
You can test for infrared sources in the area by placing a box or bag over
the sensor. Put sensor into test mode. Lights should stay off. Wave your
hand inside bag in front of sensor. Lights should go on and then time out.
If sensor operates
properly when covered, check items # 4-8
.
Problem
: Sensor is triggered by
unwanted movement or heat source.
Solution
:
(1) Aim sensor away from movement, or
(2) Mask lens in the direction of the source
(3) Lower sensitivity control setting
4.
Make sure sensor and lights are mounted
firmly and do not move even slightly when
touched. If they move, tighten all screws.
5.
Make sure sensor is not mounted on an
unstable object such as a tree or pole
that will move in the wind.
Problem:
Movement of tree triggers sensor.
Solution
: Mount on stable surface.
6.
Was sensor wired hot (with power on etc)?
If so, circuitry may have been damaged.
7.
Make sure sensor is not aimed within 20 feet of a road.
Problem
: Passing cars activate sensor.
Solution
: A 20 foot safety zone and lower sensitivity are
recommended to avoid activation from passing cars.
8.
Make sure heat from lights is not
triggering sensor. Make sure the
sensor is below and as far as
possible away from lights.

Walk Testing
STL360’s full coverage pattern reduces the need for aiming and adjustment.
The purpose of the Walk Test is to check and adjust the coverage pattern. The
STL360 must be manually set into Test Mode (see pg 13).
To enter Test Mode:
Turn Time setting to 5 seconds and turn off sensor for 10 seconds. After a
warm up period of 30 seconds the LEDs will be off.
1.
Aim the sensor at the traffic
pattern you want to detect.
Sensor will detect any
movement ACROSS its
pattern most effectively.
2.
Start outside the pattern and
walk across the pattern until
the lights go on. As distance from the sensor increases, it will take more
movement to be detected.
3.
Adjust sensor aiming as necessary to improve coverage. Make sure sen-
sor is level.
4.
Sensitivity may be decreased with the SENS knob to detect a limited area
or if the sensor is being activated by wind, foliage, traffic or animals, or
increased to cover a larger area. [See pg. 11-12 to adjust sensor settings.]
The lens mask can also be used to drastically reduce coverage, or allow
undetected movement from some directions.
5.
STL360 is factory set for night only operation. For 24 hour operation, turn
the photocell control completely toward the SUN/MOON setting. Turn
counter clockwise to have the sensor come on later at dusk, clockwise to
have it come on earlier.
6.
Repeat steps 1-5 until you are satisfied with coverage. Vacate the
detection zone for 1 minute and then turn the settings back to desired
time delay. Your sensor is now ready for operation.
