5. Installation Guide

Follow these steps to install your Craftersmark Outdoor Ceiling Light. Ensure power is OFF at the circuit breaker before starting.

6.1. Lighting Modes

• 'I' - Dusk to Dawn Mode:
  The light automatically turns ON at dusk (when ambient light is below 50 lux) and OFF at dawn. This mode provides continuous illumination throughout the night without manual intervention.

• 'II' - Motion Sensor Mode:
  The light remains OFF during daylight hours. At night, it will automatically turn ON when motion is detected within its 360-degree, 20-30 ft detection range. The light will stay ON for 60 seconds after motion ceases, then turn OFF.

• 'O' - Always-on Mode:
  The light functions as a standard fixture, turning ON and OFF via your wall switch. This mode bypasses the motion sensor and dusk-to-dawn features.
