6. Operating Modes
The BesLowe outdoor wall light features three distinct lighting modes, easily switchable with a single button press on the sensor. The sensor is located on the top of the fixture.
6.1. Dual-bright Mode (Ideal for Security)
- Daytime: Light remains off.
- Night (No Motion): Light turns on at 40% brightness (factory default).
- Night (Motion Detected): Brightness increases to 100% when motion is detected.
- After Motion: Returns to 40% brightness after no motion is detected.
Adjusting Brightness (15-50%): Long press the sensor button to cycle through brightness levels (15%, 40%, 50%) for the low-light state. Release the button at your desired level.

8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on. | No power, faulty bulb, incorrect mode setting. | Check circuit breaker. Replace bulb. Verify mode setting (e.g., ensure not in ON/OFF mode during daytime). |
| Motion sensor not detecting movement. | Sensor obstructed, incorrect mode, sensor range issues. | Clean sensor lens. Ensure light is in Dual-bright or ON/OFF mode. Adjust sensor position if possible. |
| Light stays on continuously. | Manual Override mode active, continuous motion, faulty sensor. | Check if Manual Override mode was activated. Ensure no continuous motion in sensor's field of view. If issue persists, contact support. |
| Light flickers or dims unexpectedly. | Loose wiring, incompatible bulb, power fluctuations. | Turn off power and check all wiring connections. Ensure bulb is dimmable if using Dual-bright mode. Consult an electrician if power fluctuations are suspected. |
