6. Operating Instructions
The FANDBO Motion Sensor Outdoor Wall Lantern can be controlled using the included remote. The remote allows you to select various lighting modes and adjust sensor settings.
6.1 Remote Control Functions
The remote control operates up to 23 feet away and provides access to all lighting modes and sensor adjustments.
Figure 6.1: Remote control layout and functions.
- Stay ON/OFF: Manually turns the light on or off, bypassing sensor functions.
- Mode (DTD, PIR, DTD+PIR): Selects the desired operating mode.
- Status in PIR Mode (OFF, 30% Brightness): Sets the light behavior when no motion is detected in PIR or DTD+PIR modes.
- Hold Time (60s, 120s, 180s): Adjusts how long the light stays at 100% brightness after motion is detected.
- Sensitivity (Low, Medium, High): Adjusts the motion sensor's detection sensitivity.
6.2 Lighting Modes
The lantern offers four distinct lighting modes:
Figure 6.2: Overview of the four lighting modes.
- Stay ON/OFF Mode:
Figure 6.3: Stay ON/OFF Mode.
- Manually turn the light ON or OFF.
- Sensor functions are disabled in this mode.
- Dusk to Dawn (DTD) Mode:
Figure 6.4: Dusk to Dawn Mode.
- The light automatically turns off during the day.
- Automatically turns on at 100% brightness at night.
- Motion sensor function is disabled in this mode.
- Dusk to Dawn + Motion Sensor (DTD+PIR) Mode:
Figure 6.5: Dusk to Dawn + Motion Sensor Mode.
- Operates only at night.
- When no motion is detected, the light can be set to either OFF or 30% brightness (adjustable via remote).
- Upon detecting motion, the light illuminates at 100% brightness for the set 'Hold Time'.
- After the 'Hold Time' expires, it returns to the pre-set OFF or 30% brightness state.
- Motion Sensor (PIR) Mode:
Figure 6.6: Motion Sensor Mode.
- Operates both during the day and at night.
- When no motion is detected, the light can be set to either OFF or 30% brightness (adjustable via remote).
- Upon detecting motion, the light illuminates at 100% brightness for the set 'Hold Time'.
- After the 'Hold Time' expires, it returns to the pre-set OFF or 30% brightness state.
6.3 Motion Sensor Settings
Customize the motion sensor's behavior using the remote control:
- Status in PIR Mode: Choose between OFF or 30% brightness when no motion is detected in PIR or DTD+PIR modes.
Figure 6.7: Status in PIR Mode options.
- Hold Time: Select how long the light remains at 100% brightness after motion is detected: 60 seconds, 120 seconds, or 180 seconds.

8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your FANDBO Motion Sensor Outdoor Wall Lantern, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on. | No power, loose wiring, faulty bulb, incorrect mode. | Check circuit breaker. Verify wiring connections. Replace bulb. Ensure correct mode is selected via remote. |
| Motion sensor not detecting or light stays on/off unexpectedly. | Incorrect sensitivity setting, obstruction, ambient light interference, 'Hidden Switch' setting. | Adjust sensitivity (Low, Medium, High) via remote. Ensure sensor is clear of obstructions. For DTD modes, ensure no strong ambient light is affecting the sensor. Important: Some units have a 'Hidden Switch' under the top cap of the light sensor. Remove the top cap and ensure this switch is set to 'High' for proper dusk-to-dawn functionality. If set to 'Low', the 30% accent lighting may not function. |
| Remote control not working. | Dead battery, out of range, obstruction. | Replace remote battery. Ensure you are within 23 feet of the fixture. Remove any obstructions between the remote and the fixture. |
| Light flickers or dims incorrectly. | Incompatible bulb, loose connection. | Ensure you are using a dimmable LED or incandescent bulb. Check all wiring connections. |
