What to do if . . .
Is there 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 lights stay off,
something in the detection zone is triggering the sensor.
• If this is the case, reduce the sensitivity.
• Reposition motion sensor.
*If the lights stay on with sensor lens covered,
contact customer service.
Is the unit in the AUTO mode?
• Make sure the unit is not in one of the three Night Time On
modes.
Is there motion in the detection zone?
• Make sure the sensor is not picking up moving objects
such as trees, traffic, etc.
• If this is the case, reduce the sensitivity.
• Reposition motion sensor.
If there is no motion, then the unit may be in the override mode.
• Turn the light switch to the “OFF” position for 90 seconds,
and then back to the “ON” position. This will send the unit
back into the AUTO mode.
*If the lights continue to stay on, contact customer
service.
Is the unit in the AUTO mode?
• Make sure the unit is not in one of the three Night Time
On modes.
The light given off from the unit’s own lamp(s) is affecting the
motion sensor.
• Re-aim lamp(s).
• Reposition motion sensor.
Is the switch on the bottom of the motion sensor in the test
mode?
• Move the switch to the AUTO 4, AUTO 12, or Night Time
On position.
Is the motion detector shadowed?
• Reposition motion sensor.
Is the surrounding external ambient light too bright? (If so, the
unit may think it’s daytime.)
• Re-aim the head.
• Relocate or reposition the unit away from the light.
Are you allowing adequate time to enter the dusk to dawn
mode?
• Turn the light switch to the “OFF” position for 5 seconds,
and then back to the “ON” position.
Is there more than one fixture on an indoor wall switch?
• If so, put them on separate switches.
