Loosen the two thumb screws. Estimate the direction to aim the sensor and tighten the thumbscrews just enough to hold the sensor in place.

NOTE: The top screw allows the sensor to rotate side to side. The bot- tom screw allows the sensor to rotate up and down.

Walk through the coverage area noting where you are when the lights turn on (also, the LED will flash several times when motion is detected). Loosen the thumbscrews and readjust the sensor as necessary. Tighten the thumbscrews (finger tight) when you are satisfied with the coverage direction. Keep the sensor at least 1 inch (25 mm) from lamps and keep the controls facing downward.

Adjust RANGE as needed to increase or decrease the range. Too much sensitivity may cause false triggering in some environments.

For maximum range, the sensor must be aiming straight out.

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

Release the tab on metal door to allow door to close.

One of the standout features of the HD-9260 is its dual-brightness technology. This capability allows for two levels of brightness, with the light automatically adjusting to the ambient light conditions, thus ensuring optimal illumination based on the time of day and the level of activity. In darkness, the light will activate at its full brightness when motion is detected and then dim after a specified time if no further motion occurs. This feature not only enhances security but also helps conserve energy, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

The HD-9260 is equipped with a robust motion sensor that boasts a range of up to 70 feet along with a detection zone of 180 degrees. This broad coverage ensures that any movement in the vicinity of the light will trigger the illumination, providing peace of mind whether you’re at home or away. The adjustable sensitivity settings allow the user to customize the sensor's responsiveness, making it adaptable for various environments, such as busy streets or more secluded areas.

Another notable characteristic of the HD-9260 is its weatherproof design. Built to withstand the elements, it is rated for outdoor use and can endure rain, snow, and varying temperatures, providing reliable performance year-round. The durable housing also helps protect the internal components, ensuring longevity and reducing the need for frequent replacements.

In addition to its practical features, the Heath Zenith HD-9260 offers ease of installation. It comes with clear instructions and all necessary mounting hardware, allowing homeowners to set it up quickly without professional assistance. This user-friendly design encourages more individuals to take control of their home security measures.

Overall, the Heath Zenith HD-9260 is a highly functional motion sensor light that addresses security concerns while being mindful of energy efficiency and ease of use. With its advanced technologies and durable construction, it stands out as a top choice for those looking to bolster outdoor safety and convenience.
