Choose a mode by sliding the switch on the bottom of the sensor. (See Fig.5)
Note: When power is first applied, the light will turn on to 100% brightness.
The sensor will take 30 seconds to warm up.
1. TEST MODE (daytime and nighttime operation.)
● Slide the Time switch the “Test” position.
● The light turns to high-level brightness (5000K) when motion is detected, and stays on as long as the motion
continues.
Then it revert back to 2700K CCT Color and the low-level brightness (0~50%) as per setting about 5 seconds
after motion is no longer detected.
2. AUTO MODE (nighttime operation only)
● To “AUTO” mode, slide the Time switch to the desired time setting
(30s/1min/3min). At dusk, the light turns on to pre-selected low-level
brightness (2700K). When motion is detected, the light turns to high-level
brightness (5000K) and stays on as long as motion continues. When the
motion is no longer detected, the light at high-level brightness (5000K)
remains on for the predetermined time you set (30s/1min/3min), then
switches back to pre-selected low-level brightness (2700K) automatically.
● The light turns off automatically at dawn.
Note: You can adjust the low-level brightness(0~50%) by using the low-level brightness(0~50%) knob on
the backplate (See Fig.6).
3. PC MODE (nighttime operation only)

5. CUSTOM MODE (nighttime operation only):
● In "CUSTOM" mode, the light turn on full brightness (2700K)
at dusk and off at dawn automatically.
● Set motion sensor operation to go on at a specific time.
Turn the wall switch "OFF", and turn it "ON" twice within
3 seconds. The light will go into motion-sensor operation at
the specified time every night. The light turns off automatically
at dawn.
For example, a homeowner wants to have the light stay on
high-level brightness from dusk to 8pm, and would like the light
to go into "AUTO" motion sensor mode. To achieve this, the
light homeowner will turn the wall switch "OFF", and turn it
"ON" twice within 3 seconds. This sets the time the light goes
into "AUTO" mode every day, the light will behave the same way.
To revert back to Default, turn the wall switch "OFF" and then turn it "ON" after 5 seconds.
Note: You can adjust the low-level brightness(0~50%) by using the low-level brightness(0~50%) knob on
the backplate (See Fig.6).
When light units are linked, the Set motion sensor operation to go at a specific time is also linked when
MODE settings are in Custom.
6. RF Linking Network Setup
From all the light units, select one as the main unit and the others as the sub-units;
First to setup all the sub-units by press the Link button twice within 3 seconds, the sub-units will flash once every 1
second meaning it is waiting to receive matching signal from the main light.
Then to setup the main unit by press and hold the Link button for 5 seconds, the main unit will flash slowly
(once every 3 seconds), and when the sub-units have paired with the signal, the sub-units will stop flashing
confirming it have paired with the main unit. (if pairing not successful, the sub-unit will keep flashing).
When all the sub-units have stop flashing, press the Link button on the main unit once to complete the pairing process.
(the main unit will stop flashing)
After complete the pairing process, any light within the Link group range can send or receive the photo sensor or
motion sensor signal from the other light and response accordingly.
Note: Maximum link up to 10 units per link group, each light can link within 120ft apart.
RF Linking
a. Photo Sensor Linking
When the Photo Sensor detect that the ambient brightness is less than the LUX set value.
● In "Auto" mode, the light turns on to Low-Level brightness (2700K) and send out a comprehensive signal.
1) Linking other lamps set in "Auto" mode to enter Low-Level brightness
2) Linking other lamps set in "3H", "PC", or "Custom" mode to enter High-Level brightness.
● In "PC", "3H", or "Custom" mode, the light turns on to High level brightness and send out a comprehensive signal.
1) Linking other lamps set in "Auto" mode to enter Low-Level brightness (2700K).
2) Linking other lamps set in "PC", or "3H" mode to enter High-Level brightness (5000K).
3) Linking other lamps set in "Custom" mode to enter High-Level brightness (2700K).

Shut-off Delay
● The shut-off delay is the length of time the light will stay at
brightness after motion is detected.
● You can set the shut-off delay by push the switch
so it points to the desired time setting (30s/1min/3min).
Notes:
1. The sensitivity of the motion sensor will increase as the
environmental temperature gets cooler. For best performance,
gently clean the lens with a soft cloth every 1 or 2 months to
ensure maximum sensitivity.
2. For best performance, install fixture at least 8 feet above the
ground. At such a height, the fixture will provide a detection
distance of up to 70 feet at 77 degrees Fahrenheit. (See Fig.8)
3. The sensor detects movement across a detection range of 240
degrees. (See Fig.9)
4. The sensor will be more sensitive to motion across its detection path than motion directly towards it. (See Fig.10)
5. To reduce possible nuisances, do not mount the fixture near a heat source like an air conditioner, vent or furnace
exhaust, or in a direction facing any reflective object or other nearby light source.
