Setup and Installation
1. Battery Installation
- Locate the battery compartment on the back or bottom of the floodlight unit.
- Open the compartment cover.
- Insert the required batteries (typically 4x D-cell, refer to product packaging for exact type) ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
- Securely close the battery compartment cover to maintain water resistance.
2. Mounting the Floodlight
The floodlight is designed for flush mount installation on a wall or other flat surface.
- Choose a suitable mounting location that provides the desired coverage and is within the motion sensor's range. Ensure the surface is stable.
- Use the mounting bracket (if separate) or the base of the unit as a template to mark the drill holes on the wall.
- Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. Insert wall anchors if mounting into drywall or masonry.
- Align the floodlight with the holes and secure it using the provided screws. Do not overtighten.

3. Adjusting Light Heads and Sensor
Once mounted, adjust the light heads and sensor for optimal performance.
- Light Heads: Manually pivot each light head up, down, and sideways to direct the light beam to your desired area.
- Motion Sensor: The motion sensor is typically located at the bottom of the unit. It can often be tilted or rotated to adjust its detection angle.
- Settings Dials: Look for small dials on the sensor unit. These typically control:
- TIME: Adjusts how long the light stays on after motion is detected (e.g., 3 seconds to 7 minutes).
- LUX/DAYLIGHT: Adjusts the ambient light level at which the sensor becomes active. Set to a lower LUX for activation only in darker conditions, or higher for activation in brighter conditions.
- SENSITIVITY/RANGE: Adjusts the detection range of the motion sensor (up to 40 feet).

Operating Instructions
The Link2Home EM-BL268B floodlight operates automatically based on its sensor settings.
- Automatic Activation: Once batteries are installed and settings are configured, the floodlight will automatically turn on when motion is detected within its range, provided the ambient light level is below the set LUX threshold.
- Duration: The light will remain on for the duration set by the TIME dial. If motion is continuously detected, the light will reset its timer and stay on until no motion is detected for the set period.
- Photocell Function: The integrated photocell prevents the light from activating during daylight hours, conserving battery power. The light will only become active when the surrounding light level drops sufficiently (as determined by the LUX setting).

Maintenance
- Battery Replacement: When the light output becomes dim or the unit stops activating, it is time to replace the batteries. Follow the battery installation steps in the Setup section. Always replace all batteries at once with new ones of the same type.
- Cleaning: Periodically wipe the light fixture and sensor lens with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt, dust, or debris. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the sensor lens is clear for optimal detection.
- Inspection: Regularly check the mounting screws and the fixture for any signs of wear or damage.
