For easy installation, select an existing light with a wall switch for replacement.

For best performance, mount the fixture about 8 ft. (2.4 m) above the ground.NOTE: If fixture is mounted higher than 8 ft. (2.4 m), aiming the sensor down will reduce coverage distance.

DualBrite® Timer

Light comes on half bright for selected time after dusk (Off, 3 hr., 6 hr., until dawn). Selecting OFF disables this feature. The motion sensing features will continue to work as described in this manual. If motion is sensed, the light turns on full bright for the ON-TIME (1, 5, or 20 minutes) then returns to dim mode.

Lamp Modes

There are three lamp modes (light turn-on effects) avail- able when motion is detected:

•NORMAL - Light instantly comes on.

•SOFT - Light starts dim and gradually increases to full brightness. Light gradually dims to half-bright, pauses, and then continues dimming to off when motion is no longer detected and after selected ON- TIME.

•FLASH - Light flashes on then off twice before turn- ing on full brightness.

Wall Mount

Eave Mount

For under eave installation, the sensor head must be rotated as shown in the next two steps for proper operation and to avoid the risk of electrical shock.

For eave mount only:

❒Swing the sensor head towards the clamp screw joint.
