MODEL OL-S CAUTION
INSTALLATION GUIDE
1. Turn OFF all power by removing fuse or flipping circuit breaker to OFF position
2. Screw motion sensor arm into the desired hole on junction box's cover plate.
Ensure that the sensor is positioned as shown with the LEDs on top.
3. Connect wires. Connect WHITE wires together using wire nuts provided. Connect BLACK
house wire to BLACK wire from sensor. Connect the RED wire from the sensor to the
BLACK wire(s) from the light fixture(s) using the wire nut provided. Tighten securely.
Carefully push all of the wires into the junction box. (See the diagram on the left)
NEUTRAL = White LIVE = Black RED = Load
DO NOT MOUNT ON THE GROUND. Recommended installation height is 6-1/2ft to 10ft/
This product is intended for use with enclosed gasket and with a junction box marked for
use in wet locations. Before you begin, make sure that your power is turned OFF at your
circuit breaker box. DO NOT rely on the switch power being turned OFF.
1. Install the cross bar to the junction box and secure with the (2) mounting screws. If installing to a wall or building, pre-drill holes and use
appropriate plugs / anchors. Once your holes are drilled, you can install the cross bar to the surface using the two mounting screws
2. On the cross bar locate GND, attach the ground wire with the grounding screw to the cross bar
3. Use a wire nut to connect the ground wire to the house ground wire (typically copper).
For proper connection, place wire nut over wires and twist clockwise until tight
4. Connect supply wires with wire nuts. BLACK supply wire connects to the BLACK power supply wire (Live).
WHITE product wire connects to the WHITE supply wire (Neutral)
5. You may use the optional gasket at this time round
6. Install the light fixture to the cross bar. Use silicon sealant (not included) around the perimeter of the light to seal for moisture
7. Screw in the stainless steel screw to hold fixture in place. Insert plastic screw cover into screw hole
8. Turn ON your electricity after the installation has been completed
9. Turn ON power switch. (if power is NOT ON, the light will NOT cycle ON or OFF)
Adjusting Your Motion Sensor
Your sensor head can be adjusted by turning the individual light head to detection area.
You can also adjust your sensor head up and down to your detection distance.
REMINDER: If fixture is mounted higher
than 8 ft (2.4m), aiming the sensor
down will reduce coverage distance.
The detector is less sensitive to motion
directly towards it.
Rotate joint for
left and right
directions (180°)
Rotate joint for
left and right
direction (180°)
Installation
For easy installation, select tan existing light operated by a wall switch for replacement.
For best performance, mount the fixture about 8 ft (2.4m) above the ground.
If fixture is mounted higher than 8 ft (2.4m), aiming the sensor down will reduce coverage distance.
Setting the Motion Sensor
•Detection Range: 70 ft
•Detection Angle: 240°
CAUTION
KEEP THE SENSOR AT LEAST
2" (51 mm) AWAY FROM
THE LAMPS.

MODEL OL-S
CAUTIONINSTALLATION GUIDE
Sensor Adjustments
** You MUST adjust the motion sensor on the light to the desired area before you can adjust the time and LUX settings.
Time Setting
The TIME setting controls how long the unit remains illuminated following activation and after all motion ceases.
The minimum time (Slide Switch) is approximately 5 seconds, the maximum time (slide switch) is approximately 12 minutes.
Set the slide switch to control to the desired setting between these limits.
LUX Setting
The LUX setting controls when the light will come on; it controls the amount of light needed to turn the light ON. The LUX setting is marked by the
sun and the moon. Use one of the three predetermined settings as illustrated. To adjust the light to come ON when it is darker outside, slide the
switch to "Night". To adjust the light to come on at dust, slide the switch to "Dusk". To adjust the light to come on when it is lighter outside, slide the
switch to the "Day".
SENS Setting
The SENS slide switch knob control:
Set the slide switch knob to the "Min" position. The sensor is low sensitivity setting.
Set the slide switch knob to the "Mid" position. The sensor is generally sensitivity setting.
Set the slide switch knob to the "Max" position. The sensor is high sensitivity setting.
Avoid aiming the control at:
•Objects that change temperature rapidly, such as heating vents and air conditioners. These heat sources could cause false triggering
•Areas where pets or traffic may trigger the control
•Nearby large, light coloured objects reflecting light may trigger the shut-off feature. DO NOT point other lights at the sensor.
REMINDER
Sensor has a 1-1/2 minute warm up period before it will detect motion.
When first turned ON, wait for 1-1/2 minutes.
MAINTENANCE
To clean the surface of the light, use mild soap and water.
DO NOT use scouring pads, powders, steel wool or any other abrasive materials. DO NOT immerse in water.

LED Security Light Sensors
MODEL OL-S
INSTALLATION GUIDE
Lights will not come on:
1. Light switch is turned OFF
2. Light is loose or burned out
3. Fuse is blown or circuit breaker is turned OFF
4. Daylight turnoff is in effect (double-check after dark)
5. Incorrect circuit wiring, if this is a new installation
6. Re-aim the sensor to cover desired area
Lights come on for no apparent reason:
1. Light control may be sensing small animals or
automobile traffic (re-aim the sensor)
2. Range is set too high (reduce range setting)
Lights come on in daylight:
1. Light control may be installed in a relatively dark location
Lights stay ON continuously:
1. A lamp is positioned too close to the sensor or pointed at
nearby objects that cause heat to trigger the sensor
(reposition the lamp away from the sensor or nearby objects)
2. Light control is pointed toward a heat source like an air vent,
dryer vent, or brightly-painted heat reflective surface
(Reposition sensor. Reduce Range)
ORTECH reserves the right to modify at any time, without notice,
any or all of our product's features, designs, components and
specifications to meet market changes.
Lights flash ON and OFF:
1. Heat or light from the lamps may be turning the light
control ON and OFF (Reposition the lamps away from
the sensor)
2. Heat being reflected from other objects may be
affecting the sensor (Reposition sensor)
