The default settings can be changed by adjusting the DIP Switches on the Motion
Sensor. Please refer to the table on this page and also directly on the Motion Sensor.
Turn over the FPTA Fixture showing the Fin side. Remove the flush rubber inserts
(4) from the Cover Panel. Remove the Screws (4) from the Cover Panel. Lift the
cover from the FPTA Fixture. The Fixture is now open to adjust (if needed) the
Motion Sensor setting. The process is the same for all FPTA Fixtures.
Optional Microwave Motion Sensor

The Integrated Microwave Motion Sensor is a programmable motion detector.
The default factory settings are as follows: Detection Area=100%, Hold Time=5 sec,
Stand-By Period=0 sec, Stand-By Dimming Level=50%, and Daylight (Photo)
Sensor=Disable.
Note: If the Microwave Motion Sensor is not included or adjustment is not needed,
the following steps can be skipped.

Detection Area
Detection area having motion and not enough ambient light will activate the sensor.
The sensor can be set at 100%, 75%, 50%, or 25%.
Hold Time
Hold Time refers to the time period the fixture remains at 100% illumination after
motion is detected. Hold Time can range from 5s to 20 minutes. The fixture will
remain at full illumination until ‘Hold Time’ ends, then reducing to Stand-By dimming
level.
Stand-By Period
The Stand-By period begins when the ‘Hold Time’ ends. The fixture remains at a
Stand-By Dimming Level before it completely switches off while motion is not present.
When set to “+∞” mode, the low led light is held until motion is detected.
Daylight (Photo) Sensor
The Daylight Sensor, measured in LUX can be set to allow the fixture to illuminate
below a surrounding minimum ambient brightness threshold. The sensor can be set
from 5 to 150 LUX. When set to Disable mode, the Daylight Sensor will switch ‘ON’
the fixture when motion is detected regardless of ambient light.
Stand-By Dimming Level
Stand-By Dimming Level is when ‘Hold Time’ has ended, there is no movement in the
area and the light output is reduced. The Stand-By Dimming Level can be set at 50%,
30%, 20%, or 10%.
By selecting the combination on the DIP switches, sensor data can be precisely
set for each specific application as seen below.
PHOTOCELL
SENSOR
Turn over the FPTA Fixture showing the Fin side. All FPTA Fixtures come with
a NEMA Three-Prong Twist Lock receptacle with Short-Cap to be installed. Remove
the Short-Cap by twisting CCW and lifting.
Optional Photocell Sensor
The Photocell Sensor has a Dusk to Dawn functionality. The Photocell Sensor can be easily field installed on all FPTA fixtures as shown below.
Note: If the Photocell Sensor is not included the following steps can be skipped. If the Photocell Sensor is included prior to field installation,
Step 1 can be skipped.

SHORT-CAP
Place the Photocell Sensor on the NEMA receptacle. Push down and twist CW.
The process is the same for all FPTA Fixtures.
