Walk through the coverage area noting where you are when the lights turn on. Loosen the 3 clamp screws slightly and turn the sensor head left or right to change the coverage area.

When you have the desired coverage angle make a pencil mark on the sensor and post to mark the sensor position.

If you need to change the sensitivity, temporarily lift the fixture and sensor to make the adjustment. It may be neces- sary to have a friend hold the fixture while adjusting the sensitivity. Too much sensitivity may increase false triggering.

Set the amount of ON TIME you want the light to stay on after motion is detected. (1, 5, or 20 minutes).
