Wall Mounted Eave Mounted
Read notes section on page 4 for additional information about mounting location of fixture.
Light fixture and sensor should be mounted as shown above when installed (depending upon type of installation)
Before installing the light fixture under an eave, the sensor head must be rotated as shown in the next two steps for
proper operation and to avoid the risk of electrical shock.
1. Energy saving LED fixture.
2. Motion sensor: turns light ON automatically when
motion is detected and turns light OFF or remains
Low-level brightness when motion stops.
3. Photocell keeps the light OFF during daylight hours.
4. When in manual override mode, use wall switch
to keep the light ON during the night.

Installation Steps
Turn off the power at fuse or circuit box.
Turn on the power at fuse or circuit box.
1. Install the mounting strap to the outlet box with the stamped word “FRONT” facing away from the outlet box, using
two mounting screws that best fit the outlet box. Back plate should sit flush against wall surface when secured.
(Choose one matching pair of suitable mounting screws from the 3 pairs provided)
2. Pull out the source wires from the outlet box. Make wire connections using wire connectors as follows:
---Connect the black wire from the fixture to the “hot” wire from the power source. (black)
---Connect the white wire from the fixture to the neutral wire from the power source. (white)
---Connect the grounding wire from the fixture to the ground wire from the power source.
(green / yellow insulation)
Carefully tuck the wires back into the outlet box.
3. Attach the backplate of the light to the mounting strap, secure it with the fixture mounting screw.
4. Push the decorative cover firmly into the fixture mounting screw hole on the light.
5. With silicone caulking compound, caulk completely around where the backplate meets the wall surface.
CAUTION: Be sure to caulk completely where the back plate meets the wall surface to prevent water from
seeping into the outlet box.

Adjusting the Sensor Head:
1. Aim sensor head toward desired detection area, maintaining a 5° - 40°
downward angle to allow moisture to drain.
Note: Make sure sensor head is positioned with controls facing toward
the ground.
2. You can move the sensor head up and down to change the coverage area.
(See Fig. 1)
Note: Range set too high may increase false triggering.

● You can adjust the sensitivity of the motion sensor by using the “SENSITIVITY” selector located on the right side
of the bottom surface of the sensor. (See Fig. 4)
● Adjust motion sensor sensitivity to achieve desired performance.
● Approximate range for each setting from 10ft to 70ft.
Adjusting the Light Head:
1. Gently grasp the light heads and move them up or down, left or right to adjust the light coverage area. Keep the light
heads at least 1” (25mm) away from the sensor.(See Fig. 5)
2. Keep the light heads 30˚ below horizontal to avoid water damage and electrical shock.

Functions and Operations
Choose a mode by sliding the switch on the bottom of the sensor of the fixture. (See Fig.4)
Note: When power is first applied, the light will be on and warm up lasts 30 seconds.
1. TEST MODE (daytime and nighttime operation.)
● Rotate Time knob arrow on the left side of the sensor head to 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 reverts back to low-level brightness (2700K) about 5 seconds after motion is no longer detected.
2. OFF MODE (nighttime operation only)
● In "OFF" mode, slide the Time Delay knob to the desired time(30s/1min/3min). At dusk, the light stays off,
the light turns to high-level brightness (5000K) when motion is detected, and stays on as long as motion continues.
When the motion is no longer detected, it remains on for the predetermined shut-off delay time you set
(30s/1min/3min), and then turns off automatically.
● The light turns off automatically at dawn.
3. AUTO MODE (nighttime operation only)
● In "AUTO" mode, rotate "Time" knob to the desired time setting (30s/1min/3min). At dusk, the light turns on
to 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 low-level
brightness (2700K) automatically.
● The light turns off automatically at dawn.
4. PC MODE (nighttime operation only)
● In "PC" mode, the light will turn on at full brightness (5000K) at dusk and remains on until dawn.
5. 3 HOURS (3H) MODE (nighttime operation only)
● In “3H” mode, the light turns to high-level brightness (5000K) at dusk, and stays "ON" for 3 hours, then it turns to
low-level brightness (2700K). It turns to high-level brightness (5000K) when motion is detected, and stays on as
long as motion continues. When motion is no longer detected, it remains on for the predetermined shut-off delay
time you set (30s/1min/3min), then returns to the low-level brightness (2700K) automatically.
● The light turns off automatically at dawn.

6. Manual Override (nighttime operation only)
● To temporarily override the settings in “OFF” or “AUTO”
or “3H” mode for on-demand continuous high-level
brightness at night, turn the wall switch “OFF” then turn it
“ON” twice within 3 seconds, the light remains on all night long.
To shift back to “OFF” or “AUTO” or “3H” mode, turn the wall
switch “OFF” then turn it “ON” twice within 3 seconds again.
(See Fig.6)
● The light turns off automatically at dawn.
Note: To make sure the above functions operate properly,
always keep the wall switch in the “ON” position (including
the daytime).

Customization Options:
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 rotating the Time knob arrow
so it points to the desired time setting
(30s/1min/3min). To increase the shut-off delay, turn the knob
clockwise. To decrease the shut-off delay, turn the knob
counterclockwise.
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.7)
3. The sensor detects movement across a detection range of 180 degrees. (See Fig.8)
4. The sensor will be more sensitive to motion across its detection path than motion directly towards it. (See Fig.9)
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.

Where you install your fixture is important:
Be sure the light is mounted straight on the wall
or eave; otherwise, the detection distance may
be limited.

Troubleshooting
---The light does not work:
1. Make sure the wall switch and circuit breaker are on.
2. Make sure the wiring is correct.
3. Cover the sensor with dark color cloth to verify that the ambient light level is not too high.
---The light comes on for no apparent reason:
1. Re-aim the motion sensor.
2. Decrease the sensitivity setting.
3. Do not use a dimmer or timer to control the light fixture. Replace the dimmer or timer with a standard on/off wall
switch.
---The light flashes on and off:
1. Reposition the light head away from the motion sensor.
2. Reposition the motion sensor.
3. The motion sensor is in “TEST” mode and warm up.
