Pre-Installation (continued)
SELECTING A LOCATION
Be aware of the motion sensor‟s maximum
range of 30 ft. and 200º detection angle.
Be aware of the motion sensor‟s 15º
detection down-angle (from horizontal).
Mounting the fixture too high or in front of a
sloped surface, such as an uphill walkway
or driveway, may affect the motion
sensor‟s effectiveness.
Select locations away from heat sources,
such as heating vents, air conditioners,
and heated swimming pools.
Be aware that the motion sensor is more
sensitive to movement across its coverage
area and less sensitive to movement
toward or away from the motion sensor.
Select locations away from nighttime light
sources, such as street lamps or other light
fixtures. They may shine light onto the
fixture‟s photocell sensor (located at the
bottom of the back plate, between the two
switches). This light might cause the circuit
to “think” that it is daytime and not allow
the fixture‟s functions to operate.
Be aware that shade from a porch or an
eave may not allow enough daylight to
shine onto the photocell sensor and may
cause the circuit to “think” that it is
nighttime, and subsequently cause the
light to come on during the daytime.
Be aware that motorized equipment, such
as power tools, on the same electrical
circuit may cause oscillations on the
electrical line which might cause the fixture
to malfunction.

1Mounting the hardware
Thread the fixture mounting screws (EE)
into the provided holes of the mounting

over the outlet box and onto the fixture
mounting screws (EE).
Adjust the fixture mounting screws (EE)
until they protrude out from the back plate
1/4 in.
Remove the fixture body (A) and secure
the position of the fixture mounting screws
(EE) by tightening the hex nuts (BB)
against the mounting bracket (FF).
2Connecting the wires
Connect the black supply wire to the black
fixture wire using a wire nut (CC).
Connect the white supply wire to the white
fixture wire using a wire nut (CC).

Operation
GETTING STARTED
Slide the “TIMER” switch to “TEST”.
Turn on power at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
Turn the light switch on to activate the fixture.
The light will turn on and remain on for approximately 45 seconds and then flash 3 times before
turning off. In TEST mode, the motion sensor will turn on the light when it senses movement. Four to
five seconds after movement has stopped, the light will turn off.
SETTING THE SENSITIVITY IN TEST MODE
In TEST mode, slide the “SENSITIVITY” switch to a desired level: “L” for low, “M” for medium, or
“H” for high.
Test the sensitivity by walking towards the fixture from various angles, especially high traffic
paths such as driveways and walkways.
If necessary, select a different “SENSITIVITY” switch position to increase or decrease the
sensitivity or range.
Continue to adjust the sensitivity until optimum results are attained.

Six Hour
Timer
The light will turn on and remain on for 5 to 6 hours at dusk.
At dusk, the light will turn off and the motion sensor will activate
(motion sensing mode).
Any movement within the coverage area will cause the light to turn
on and remain on for 10 minutes.
At 10 minutes, the light will turn off.
The motion sensor will remain active throughout the night.
At dawn, the motion sensor will deactivate.
NOTE: Always keep the wall switch in the “ON”
position, including the daytime, to make sure the
motion sensor functions properly.
MANUAL OVERRIDE
Flip the wall switch OFF-ON-OFF-ON
within a 3 second span. The light will
remain on until the override is deactivated.
To turn off the light and deactivate the
manual override, flip the wall switch OFF-
ON-OFF-ON again. This will return the
circuit back to motion sensing mode.
If you do not deactivate the manual
override, the light will remain for 8 hours
or until dawn, whichever comes first, at
which time the light will turn off
automatically.
Toggle the switch in this manner as many
times as you need to alternate between
the two modes, manual override mode
(light on) and motion sensing mode (light
off).
