5.2 Installation Steps
- Turn Off Power: Before starting any electrical work, ensure the power supply to the installation area is turned off at the circuit breaker.
- Prepare Wiring: Identify the Live (black), Neutral (white), and Ground (green/bare copper) wires from your electrical box.
- Connect Wires: Connect the corresponding wires from the fixture to your household wiring using wire nuts (not included). Ensure a secure connection for each wire:
- Fixture Live (black) to Household Live (black)
- Fixture Neutral (white) to Household Neutral (white)
- Fixture Ground (green) to Household Ground (green/bare copper)
- Mount Fixture: Securely attach the light fixture to the wall or soffit using appropriate mounting hardware. The base is a universal size (112mm*112mm*46mm), suitable for most junction boxes (within 120mm diameter).
- Adjust Light Heads: Adjust the two light heads to your desired illumination angle. The motion sensor can be adjusted up/down.
- Restore Power: Once installation is complete and all connections are secure, restore power at the circuit breaker.

6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Mode Selection
The motion sensor light features three adjustable dials for MODE, TIME, and DISTANCE. These dials are located on the underside of the motion sensor unit.
Image: Close-up of the motion sensor unit showing the 'MODE', 'TIME', and 'DIST' adjustment dials.
- MODE Dial: Selects the operating mode.
- Test Mode: The floodlight turns on for 5 seconds when it detects a person, regardless of day or night. Useful for testing sensor functionality and coverage.
- Auto Mode (Motion Sensor): The light activates to 100% brightness when motion is detected at night. After the set time, it turns off.
- D2D Mode (Dusk to Dawn with PIR): The light stays on at 30% brightness all night. When motion is detected, it brightens to 100% for the set duration, then returns to 30% brightness.
- TIME Dial: Adjusts the duration the light stays on after motion detection (in Auto or D2D mode). Options are 1 minute, 3 minutes, or 10 minutes.
- DIST (Distance) Dial: Adjusts the motion detection range from 19 feet (L) to 72 feet (H).
6.2 Motion Sensor Operation
In Auto Mode, the light will turn on at 100% brightness when it detects motion at night. It will remain on for the duration set by the TIME dial (1, 3, or 10 minutes) and then turn off if no further motion is detected.

6.3 Dusk to Dawn Mode Operation
When the MODE dial is set to D2D, the light will automatically turn off during the day. At dusk, it will turn on at 30% brightness and remain at this level throughout the night. When motion is detected, the light will instantly brighten to 100% for the set duration, then return to 30% brightness.

8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Onforu motion sensor light, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on. | No power; Incorrect wiring; Sensor obstructed; Ambient light too high (in Auto/D2D mode). | Check circuit breaker; Verify wiring connections; Clear obstructions from sensor; Test in darker conditions or use Test Mode. |
| Light stays on continuously. | Continuous motion detected; Wiring error; Sensor malfunction. | Ensure no constant motion in detection area; Recheck wiring; If problem persists, contact support. |
| Light turns on for no apparent reason. | Sensor sensitivity too high; Environmental factors (e.g., moving branches, small animals, car headlights). | Adjust DIST dial to a lower sensitivity; Reposition sensor to avoid false triggers. |
| Light flashes or flickers. | Loose wiring connection; Power fluctuations; Faulty unit. | Check and secure all wiring connections; Consult an electrician for power issues; If problem persists, contact support. |
| Detection range is too short or too long. | DIST dial setting; Sensor mounting height/angle. | Adjust the DIST dial; Ensure sensor is mounted at optimal height and angle (typically 6-10 feet high). |
