Note: Do not attach transformer (A) to the wall at this
time.
Loosen the terminal screws located on the bottom of the
transformer (A) and insert one of the pre-stripped wires
under the terminal clamping plate and securely tighten
the terminal screw. Repeat this process for the other side
of the wire, inserting it into the second wire terminal.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or
damage to the transformer (A), ensure there
is no wire insulation under the terminal
clamping plate and the screws connecting
the cable to the transformer terminals are
securely tightened.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. After properly installing the transformer (A), turn on the
electrical source. There are two buttons for operation.
By pressing either button, it will turn to another working
mode. Push either button repeatedly to scroll through
different selections.
“O”--ON (lights stay on until manually turned off).
“A” --AUTO (lights turn on at dusk and off at dawn.)
“1” - “9” -- TIMING (lights turn on at dusk and off after
the selected number of hours.)
CAUTION:
If the manual circuit breaker trips, there is a risk of fire. Reset the unit by pressing the reset
button located on the bottom of the transformer after checking the following:
• Cable is correctly inserted in the cable terminals at the bottom of the transformer and no
wire insulation is under the terminal clamping plate.
If you want to test the photo eye during the day, plug the transformer and cover the photo eye so the
photo eye does not receive any light). Press the setting button to “A”, making sure the photo eye is
completely covered, and your light fixtures will turn on. Uncover the photo eye and your lighting
fixtures will shut off automatically.
Note:
There will be a 30-60 second delay between the lights turning on/off once the photo eye is
covered/uncovered.
TROUBLESHOOTING
1. The transformer is not plugged
in and turned on.
2. Low-voltage cables are not
connected to the transformer
properly.
4.
The transformer is overloaded.
2. Ensure the wires are inserted
properly into the cable terminals
and the terminal screws are
securely tightened.
5. The manual circuit breaker has
tripped.
5. Push the reset button on the
bottom of the transformer to reset
the circuit breaker.
3. Fixture connector is not properly
installed on the low-voltage
cable.
3. Make sure the connect pins
pierce wire insulation and make
proper contact with the wire.
1. Plug the transformer into the
outlet and turn the transformer on.

PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE CORRECTIVE ACTION
4. Check the total wattage of all
connected fixtures. Total wattage
must not exceed 200 watts.
Note: If the first light connection does not result in the
light turning on, refer to the troubleshooting section
on page 7. When the transformer (A) is on, an
audible hum may be heard. This is normal and does
not affect the performance of the transformer (A).
6. Plug the transformer into the outlet and turn the
transformer on (refer to operating instructions below).
Connect the light fixtures to the low-voltage cable (not
included) using fixture connectors, and test the system
before finalizing installation. Once testing is completed
and the system is operational, the cable may be covered
with landscape material (mulch, rock, etc.) or buried up to
6 in. deep.
