Operating Instructions

The EDISHINE Outdoor Wall Light offers three distinct operating modes, selectable via a switch located on the sensor module. Familiarize yourself with each mode to optimize lighting for your needs.

Lighting Modes Dial

Lighting Modes:

  • 1. Auto+ Mode:

    In this mode, the light will illuminate at 20%-50% brightness during the night. Upon detection of motion, it will switch to 100% brightness. After 20-180 seconds of no motion, it will return to the dim light setting. This mode is ideal for continuous low-level illumination with full brightness on demand.

    Auto+ Mode Operation

  • 2. Auto Mode:

    The light remains off during the daytime. At night, it will automatically turn on to 100% brightness when motion is detected. After 20-180 seconds of no motion, the light will turn off completely. This mode is energy-efficient, providing light only when needed.

  • 3. PC Mode (Photocell / Dusk to Dawn):

    In PC mode, the light remains off during the day and automatically turns on at dusk, staying on until dawn. This mode provides continuous illumination throughout the night, based on ambient light levels.

    PC Mode Operation

Motion Sensor & Photocell Sensor:

The integrated PIR motion sensor detects movement within a range of 10-33 feet and a 140° detection angle. The photocell sensor ensures the light operates only when ambient light conditions require it (e.g., at night for motion modes, or continuously from dusk to dawn in PC mode).

GFCI Outlet Usage:

The two built-in GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlets provide extra protection against electrical shock. They are suitable for two-prong and three-prong plugs and can handle a maximum power of 15A (1800W). Always ensure the GFCI outlet is reset after installation or a power interruption by pressing the "TEST" then "RESET" buttons.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your EDISHINE Outdoor Wall Light. Always turn off the power at the circuit breaker before performing any maintenance.

  • Cleaning: Periodically clean the fixture with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish or glass.
  • Inspection: Annually inspect the wiring and connections for any signs of wear, corrosion, or damage. Ensure all screws and mounting hardware remain tight.
  • GFCI Test: Test the GFCI outlets monthly by pressing the "TEST" button. The "RESET" button should pop out, indicating the circuit has tripped. Press "RESET" to restore power. If the GFCI does not trip or reset, it may be faulty and should be replaced by a qualified electrician.
  • Bulb Replacement: Replace the E26 bulb as needed. Ensure the replacement bulb's wattage does not exceed the fixture's maximum rating (60W MAX).
