5. Setup and Installation

Important: Before starting installation, ensure the power supply to the circuit is turned OFF at the circuit breaker or fuse box.

5.1 Pre-Installation

• Choose a suitable mounting location, ideally 8.2 feet (2.5 meters) above the ground for optimal motion detection.
• Ensure the mounting surface is stable and can support the weight of the fixture.

5.2 Dimensions

5.3 Mounting and Wiring

1. Attach the mounting plate to the junction box using the provided screws.
2. Connect the electrical wires: Black to Black (Live), White to White (Neutral), and Green/Bare Copper to Green (Ground) using wire nuts.
3. Carefully tuck the wires into the junction box.
4. Align the fixture with the mounting plate and secure it with the provided screws.
5. Adjust the light heads to the desired angle.
6. Restore power at the circuit breaker.

6. Operating Instructions

The LUTEC LED Security Light features adjustable settings for sensitivity (DISTANCE) and illumination time (TIME), along with four distinct lighting modes.

6.1 Sensitivity (DISTANCE) Adjustment

• L (Low): 0-10 feet detection range.
• M (Medium): 10-20 feet detection range.
• H (High): 20-33 feet detection range.

6.2 Time Adjustment

• 1 MIN: Light stays on for 1 minute after motion stops.
• 3 MIN: Light stays on for 3 minutes after motion stops.
• 10 MIN: Light stays on for 10 minutes after motion stops.

6.3 Lighting Modes

• Test Mode: For initial setup and aiming. The light will turn on for a few seconds when motion is detected, regardless of ambient light.
• Motion (Security) Mode: The light remains off until motion is detected. It then illuminates at 100% brightness for the set duration (1, 3, or 10 minutes) and turns off when motion ceases. This mode is active only at night.
• Dusk to Dawn (D2D) Mode: The light automatically turns on at 20% brightness at dusk and stays on throughout the night. When motion is detected, it brightens to 100% for the set duration, then returns to 20% brightness. It turns off automatically at dawn.
• Manual Override Mode: The light stays on at 100% brightness for 6 hours, regardless of motion or ambient light. To activate, quickly turn the power OFF and ON twice within 2 seconds. The light will then stay on for 6 hours or until dawn. To exit, turn the power OFF and ON once.

Image: Operational scenarios for the LUTEC LED Security Light. This visual guide demonstrates how the light functions in different conditions: automatically turning off at dawn, maintaining 20% brightness throughout the night in Dusk to Dawn mode, and activating to 100% brightness upon motion detection before dimming back to 20%.

6.4 Motion Sensor Coverage

Image: Adjustable sensor range configurations. This image demonstrates the versatility of the motion sensor, showing how its detection angle can be adjusted from a maximum of 240 degrees to a minimum of 120 degrees, or configured with two separate 120-degree detection zones for flexible coverage.

7. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your security light.

• Cleaning: Clean the fixture periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Inspection: Periodically check for any loose wiring or damage to the fixture. Ensure the motion sensor lens is clear of dirt or obstructions.
• Weather Resistance: The IP65 rating ensures protection against dust and water jets.
