5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Time Setting (TIME)
Use the 'TIME' knob to set the duration the light remains on after motion is detected. Settings range from 10 seconds to 30 minutes. You can also set it to permanent ON or OFF.
5.2 Light Sensitivity Setting (LUX)
Use the 'LUX' knob to adjust the ambient brightness threshold at which the motion detector activates the light. Settings range from 3 LUX (darkness) to 2,000 LUX (daylight). This allows the light to only turn on when it's dark enough.

6. Maintenance
- Regularly clean the sensor lens with a soft, dry cloth to ensure optimal detection performance.
- Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the device.
- Periodically check all electrical connections for tightness and signs of wear.
- No user-serviceable parts inside. For repairs, contact qualified personnel.
7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on when motion is detected. | 1. Incorrect LUX setting (too high). 2. No power supply. 3. Faulty bulb. | 1. Adjust LUX setting to a lower value. 2. Check power connections. 3. Replace the bulb. |
| Light stays on continuously. | 1. TIME setting too long or set to permanent ON. 2. Constant motion in detection area. 3. Sensor obstructed or dirty. | 1. Adjust TIME setting. 2. Reposition detector or adjust detection area with cover. 3. Clean sensor lens. |
| Light turns on without apparent motion. | 1. Environmental factors (wind, heat, small animals). 2. Sensor too sensitive. | 1. Reposition detector or adjust detection area with cover. 2. Ensure no objects are causing false triggers. |
