6. Operating Instructions
Your Slypadan Motion Sensor Outdoor Pendant Light features two smart operating modes: Auto Mode and Manual Override Mode.
6.1. Auto Mode (Motion Detection)
In Auto Mode, the light operates based on motion detection and ambient light levels:
- Daytime: The light remains off to save energy.
- Nighttime (No Motion): The light illuminates at 40% brightness.
- Nighttime (Motion Detected): When motion is detected within its 220° detection range (up to 20 feet), the light switches to 100% full brightness.
- After Motion: After approximately 5 minutes of no detected motion, the light returns to 40% brightness.
6.2. Manual Override Mode
For situations requiring continuous full brightness, such as outdoor gatherings, you can activate Manual Override Mode:
- To activate, quickly turn your wall switch OFF-ON within 0.5 to 2 seconds.
- The light will then stay at 100% brightness for 8 hours.
- After 8 hours, or at dawn, the light will automatically return to Auto Mode.
