Note: Installation of this light control should be done only by those with experience in 120 Volt household wiring. Install in accordance with local codes. Some local codes may require that a licensed electrician install the light control.

This light control automatically turns on lights when motion is detected. On-time is selectable from Off, 1, 5, or 20 minutes. A photocell keeps the lights off during the day. Patented DUALBRITE® timer provides accent lighting.

1. Installation

CAUTION: Always turn the circuit breaker off when wir- ing the fixture.

1.Remove the existing fixture.

2.After screwing the sensor into the wall plate, connect the junc- tion box wires to the light control wires as shown in Figure 1:

•Black sensor wire to the black (HOT) house wire.

•White sensor wire to all white (NEUTRAL) house and lamp wires.

•Red (SWITCHED HOT) sensor wire to black lamp wires.

3.Mount light fixture according to the instructions that came with your fixture.

2. Aiming

The coverage area for the sensor is shown in Figure 2. The sensor should be aimed so that the motion to be detected is in front of and across the coverage area. The sensor should be aimed looking out at a horizontal angle. To reduce false triggering, point the sensor away from traffic areas, air conditioners, dryer vents, water pools, or anything which may move or change temperature rapidly.

3. Testing

Turn the power back on at the circuit breaker. Turn the light switch on.

Note: When first turned on wait about 1 1/2 minutes for the circuitry to calibrate.

Put the ON-TIME switch on the bottom of the sensor in the TEST position.You can now walk in front of the unit and the lights will come on for about 5 seconds. The TEST mode works both day and night.

Walk through the coverage area and point the sensor to obtain the desired coverage area. Adjust sensitivity as needed. Use RANGE BOOST only if required.

4. Operation

For motion sensing, put the ON-TIME switch on the bottom of the sensor in the 1, 5, or 20 minute position. When motion is detected, the lights will come on the selected time. Note: The photocell keeps the lights from turning on in daylight.

To keep lights on all night, flip the light switch off for 1 second then back on. To return the sensor to the motion sensing mode, flip the light switch off for 1 second then back on. At dawn, the control will return to the motion sensing mode and shut off.

BLACK Junction Box Wire

Optional: Connect additional load across the white and red sensor wires. Total lighting load including lamp- heads on fixture(s) must not exceed 500W (4.2A).

CAUTION: Do not mount the sensor above or touching the lamps. Keep regular PAR-38 lamps at least 1" (25 mm) from the sensor. Halogen lamps should be kept at least 2" (51 mm) from the sensor. The sensor bottom must be facing down for best coverage and to avoid water damage and electrical shock.

Note: For under-eave installation, rotate the sensor head 180° by bending the sensor towards the clamp bracket. Rotate the sensor bottom clockwise away from the bracket.
