Operating Instructions

Adjusting Light Heads and Sensor

The twin PAR38 bulb holders can be swiveled 180° vertically and 360° horizontally to direct light precisely where needed. The motion sensor can be tilted up and down to adjust its detection area.

Motion Sensor Mode

The integrated PIR motion sensor detects movement within a 180° range and a distance of 19-72 feet. The light will activate when motion is detected and remain on for an adjustable duration (1-10 minutes).

Dusk-to-Dawn Mode

In Dusk-to-Dawn mode, the fixture automatically turns on at dusk/night and turns off at dawn, providing continuous illumination throughout the night without motion activation.

Control Settings

The motion sensor unit features three adjustable dials for customizing operation:

  • LUX (Light Sensitivity): Adjusts the ambient light level at which the motion sensor becomes active. Set to "sun" for day and night operation, or "moon" for night-only operation.
  • TIME (Duration): Sets how long the light remains on after motion is detected, ranging from 1 to 10 minutes.
  • SENS (Sensitivity): Controls the detection distance of the motion sensor, from 19 feet to 72 feet.
  • TEST Mode: A setting that turns the light on for 5 seconds when motion is detected, regardless of day or night, for easy testing of the sensor's range and angle.
  • D2D Mode: Activates the Dusk-to-Dawn function, where the light turns on at dusk and off at dawn.

Troubleshooting

ProblemPossible CauseSolution
Light does not turn on.No power; loose wiring; faulty bulb; LUX setting too low (for motion mode).Check circuit breaker; verify wiring connections; replace bulb; adjust LUX setting.
Light stays on continuously.Motion sensor continuously triggered; TIME setting too long; D2D mode active.Adjust sensor angle/sensitivity to avoid false triggers; reduce TIME setting; ensure D2D mode is off if motion mode is desired.
Light turns on during the day.LUX setting too high (set to "sun"); D2D mode not functioning correctly.Adjust LUX setting to "moon" for night-only operation; check D2D mode settings.
Motion sensor range is poor.Sensor angle incorrect; SENS setting too low; obstructions.Adjust sensor angle (up/down); increase SENS setting; clear any obstructions.
