4. Product Features
- IR Remote Control: Easily adjust settings such as sensor mode, hold time, luminance detection, and sensor sensitivity without needing to access the physical unit.
- Motion Sensor Mode (PIR): Activates the light to 100% brightness when motion is detected within a 60ft range.
- Motion Sensor Mode (DIM): Activates the light to 100% brightness upon motion detection, then dims to 20% brightness after motion ceases.
- Dusk to Dawn Mode: Automatically turns the light ON at dusk and OFF at dawn. Motion detection is inactive in this mode.
- Always ON Mode: Allows the light to function as a standard light, controlled manually via the IR remote. Motion detection is inactive in this mode.
- High Brightness & Energy Efficiency: 45W LED provides 5000 lumens of 5000K daylight, equivalent to a 400W incandescent fixture, saving over 80% in energy costs.
- Adjustable Design: Features 3 adjustable heads and a movable sensor to customize illumination and detection areas.
- IP65 Waterproof: Durable construction ensures safety and longevity for outdoor use in various weather conditions.
5. Installation Guide
Follow these steps for a secure and functional installation. It is recommended to watch the installation video for visual guidance.
5.1 Pre-Installation
- Turn off power at the circuit breaker before starting.
- Ensure the mounting surface is stable and can support the fixture's weight.
- Gather necessary tools: screwdriver, wire strippers, electrical tape (optional).
5.2 Mounting the Fixture
- Attach the mounting bracket to your electrical box using the provided screws. Ensure it is securely fastened.
- Connect the wires:
- Connect the white wire from the fixture to the white (neutral) wire from your electrical box using a wire connector.
- Connect the black wire from the fixture to the black (live) wire from your electrical box using a wire connector.
- Connect the green (ground) wire from the fixture to the ground wire from your electrical box.
- Carefully push the connected wires into the electrical box.
- Align the fixture with the mounting bracket and secure it with the mounting bolt. Ensure the gasket and rubber plug are properly seated for weatherproofing.
- Adjust the light heads and motion sensor to your desired angles.

6. Operating Instructions
The NOVOSTELLA NTA22 LED Security Light is controlled using the included IR remote. Aim the remote directly at the motion sensor for optimal response. Ensure no obstacles are between the remote and the sensor. A distance within 16ft is recommended.
6.1 Remote Control Functions
Image: The IR remote control allows for easy adjustment of light settings.
- ON/OFF: Manually turn the light on or off.
- D2D (Dusk to Dawn): Activates Dusk to Dawn mode. The light turns on automatically at dusk and off at dawn. Motion detection is disabled.
- PIR (Motion Sensor - 100% Brightness): Activates motion sensor mode. When motion is detected, the light turns on at 100% brightness.
- DIM (Motion Sensor - 20% Dim): Activates motion sensor mode. When motion is detected, the light turns on at 100% brightness, then dims to 20% brightness after motion ceases.
- HOLD TIME (10s, 1min, 5min, 10min): Sets how long the light remains at full brightness after motion is detected and then ceases.
- LUX (DAY, NIGHT): Adjusts the ambient light level at which the motion sensor becomes active.
- DAY: Motion sensor is active during both day and night.
- NIGHT: Motion sensor is active only when ambient light is low (at night).
- SENS (LOW, HIGH): Adjusts the sensitivity of the motion sensor.
- LOW: Reduced sensitivity, detects motion at closer distances.
- HIGH: Increased sensitivity, detects motion at longer distances (up to 60ft).
6.2 Understanding Modes
Image: Illustration of Dusk to Dawn (Auto ON/OFF) and Manual ON/OFF modes. Motion detection is not active in these modes.

7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your security light.
- 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.
- Inspection: Annually inspect the wiring and mounting for any signs of wear, damage, or loose connections.
- Sensor Area: Keep the area around the motion sensor clear of obstructions (e.g., tree branches, tall plants) that could interfere with its detection capabilities.
8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your NOVOSTELLA NTA22 LED Security Light, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on. | No power, loose wiring, incorrect mode setting, faulty sensor. | Check circuit breaker. Verify all wire connections are secure. Ensure the remote is set to a motion-activated mode (PIR or DIM) or D2D mode at night. Test the sensor sensitivity. |
| Light stays on continuously. | Continuous motion, incorrect mode setting, sensor malfunction. | Ensure no constant motion in the detection area. Check if the light is set to "Always ON" mode. If in motion sensor mode, try adjusting sensor sensitivity (SENS LOW) or hold time. |
| Light flashes or flickers. | Unstable power supply, loose connection, incompatible dimmer (not dimmable via wall switch). | Verify stable power. Check wiring connections. This fixture is not designed for use with external dimmer switches. |
| Motion sensor not detecting. | Obstruction, incorrect sensitivity, LUX setting, sensor angle. | Clear obstructions. Set SENS to HIGH. Ensure LUX is set to DAY or NIGHT as appropriate. Adjust the sensor angle to cover the desired area. |
| Remote control not working. | Battery dead, remote out of range, obstruction. | Replace the CR2 battery in the remote. Ensure you are within 16ft and aiming directly at the sensor without obstructions. |
