ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1: Mount the Bracket
With power to the electrical box turned off, remove the old fixture. If the old fixture is attached to an electrical box that has more than two wire leads, mark the wires to keep track of the correct ones to use.
1. Trace the supply wires through the large center opening of the mounting bracket (CC). Place the mounting bracket (CC) over the electrical box, making sure that the threaded mounting hole offsets are at the 12 and 6 o'clock position. Using the machine screws (AA or BB) that fit the electrical box, secure the mounting bracket to the electrical box.
Diagram Description: Shows the mounting bracket (CC) being attached to an electrical box using machine screws (AA). The bracket is oriented parallel to the floor.
Step 2: Grounding and Wiring
For safety and proper operation, the fixture must be properly grounded. If unfamiliar with the methods for properly grounding the fixture and mounting bracket, consult a qualified electrician.
If the electrical box is made of metal and is already grounded, secure the bare end of the fixture green/copper ground wire to the mounting bracket using the green grounding screw (EE). If the electrical box is a non-grounded type or made of plastic, connect both the fixture green/copper ground wire AND the green/copper ground wire inside the electrical box to the mounting bracket using the green grounding screw (EE).
Once properly grounded, connect the supply leads from the electrical box to the fixture wire leads using the wire nuts (DD). The black lead from the fixture connects to the black supply lead, and the white fixture lead connects to the white supply lead. Tighten the wire nuts properly to prevent the wires from coming loose. If unsure of the tightness, secure the wire nuts using electrical tape.
Diagram Description: Illustrates the grounding screw (EE) securing the ground wire to the mounting bracket. It also shows wire nuts (DD) connecting the fixture's black wire to the supply's black wire, and the fixture's white wire to the supply's white wire.
Step 3: Attach the Fixture
Position the fixture's wall plate over the mounting bracket. Use the machine screws (AA) to secure the fixture onto the mounting bracket. Tighten the screws properly.
If eave mounting the fixture, position the sensor head with the adjustment controls and drain holes facing downward to prevent water damage. The position of the sensor head should not exceed 45 degrees from horizontal.
Diagram Description: Shows the fixture being attached to the mounting bracket with screws (AA). The diagram also illustrates the sensor head tilted downwards, indicating the recommended 5-15 degree angle and the 45-degree limit from horizontal.
Step 4: Adjust Light Heads
Each light head can be adjusted at the arm and base of the fixture.
Step 5: Restore Power
Restore power to the electrical box at the circuit breaker or fuse panel. Make sure the wall switch that controls the electrical box is still in the "OFF" position until the fixture can be properly checked for operation.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The fixture comes with a 180° motion sensor and a built-in dusk-to-dawn sensor. The dusk-to-dawn sensor disables the motion detector during daylight hours and only allows the motion sensor to activate the light after dark. The security light will not activate during daylight hours regardless of whether it sees motion or not.
Mode 1: Slide Switch Settings
The slide switch on the bottom surface of the motion sensor has four settings: TEST, 1, 5, 10.
- TEST Mode: In the "TEST" position, the motion sensor will turn the lights on for 40 seconds after power is applied to the fixture. To test your fixture, switch the wall switch that controls power to the fixture to the ON position. The lights will come on for 40 seconds regardless of whether there is motion or not, and regardless of whether it is day or night. Leave the slide switch in the "TEST" setting and adjust the sensitivity by crossing in the path of the sensor. The light will come on only if it senses movement. Once movement stops, it will turn off in 5 seconds.
Diagram Description: Shows the slide switch on the motion sensor with settings labeled TEST, 1, 5, 10, and a timer dial.
Mode 2: Sensitivity Adjustment
There is also a rotary knob on the bottom of the motion sensor labeled: SENSITIVITY.
Rotating this knob clockwise raises the sensitivity of the motion sensor for up to 60 ft. of distance. Rotating the knob counterclockwise lowers the sensitivity down to as close as 5 ft. It may be necessary to adjust the “SENSITIVITY” knob several times until you find the proper setting for your particular installation. NOTE: The higher sensitivity level for longer distances (up to 60 ft.) increases the likelihood of false triggering. For maximum range performance, allow the fixture to operate in any mode (with power) for at least 48 hours.
Diagram Description: Shows the rotary knob labeled "SENSITIVITY" on the motion sensor.
Mode 3: Coverage and Aiming
The 180° coverage of the motion sensor is measured side to side. Therefore, the sensor will better detect motion across the field of view (side-to-side), rather than motion coming straight at the sensor (in-and-out). Adjust the motion sensor head so that it sees motion moving across the coverage area. Make sure the sensor head is positioned with the front lens facing slightly downward (5°-15° angle) to prevent water accumulation on the sensor head. Do not aim the motion sensor at a body of water, bushes or plants that may move in the wind, pedestrian traffic, moving cars, etc., as this will trigger the motion sensor.
Diagram Description: Illustrates the 180-degree coverage angle of the motion sensor and the recommended 5-15 degree downward tilt for the sensor head to prevent water accumulation.
Mode 4: Timer Settings
Once the fixture has been tested for proper operation and sensitivity, move the switch to the “1, 5, or 10" position. Each of these positions allows the fixture to go into AUTO motion sensor mode. Each of these settings indicates the time frame that the light will remain on after detecting motion. If set for the “1” setting, the lights will come on for 1 minute after detecting motion, and then will go off and return to the AUTO motion sensor mode. When set for “5”, the lights will remain on for 5 minutes after detecting motion. If set for “10”, the lights will remain on for 10 minutes after detecting motion. If motion is continuously detected during the lights” “ON” cycle, the lights will remain on until the motion ceases.
Diagram Description: Shows the timer settings for 1 Minute, 5 Minutes, and 10 Minutes, each with corresponding labels for sensitivity and timer.
Mode 5: Manual "ON" Mode
To be able to manually turn on the security light from inside your home, toggle the wall light switch OFF and ON within 2 seconds. The security light will turn on and stay on for approximately 8 hours, or until the dusk-to-dawn sensor detects light in the morning. Once the dusk-to-dawn sensor detects light, the manual “ON” mode will automatically go back to its original settings of the AUTO motion sensor mode. At any point while in manual “ON” mode, return to the AUTO motion sensor mode by toggling the wall light switch OFF and ON again within 2 seconds.
Step 6: Apply Caulking
Once you have confirmed that the security light is working properly, apply a small bead of silicone caulking (not included) around the perimeter of the rear housing cover to prevent water seepage into the electrical compartment.
Diagram Description: Shows a bead of silicone caulking being applied around the perimeter of the rear housing cover of the fixture.
Step 7: Install Silicone Caps
Press fit the silicone caps (FF) into the mounting screw openings to prevent water seepage into the housing.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Periodically clean the fixture and diffuser using a mild, non-abrasive glass cleaner and soft cloth. Do NOT use solvents or cleaners containing abrasive agents. When cleaning the fixture, make sure you have the power turned off and do not spray liquid cleaner directly onto any part of the fixture or LEDs.

TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM | POSSIBLE CAUSE | CORRECTIVE ACTION |
---|---|---|
Light does not come on at night when motion is detected. | 1. No power is being delivered to the fixture. 2. Another light source is causing the security light to think it is daylight. 3. Wiring inside electrical came loose. |
1. Check that circuit breaker and/or wall switch power is on. 2. Turn off surrounding lights and/or re-aim the sensor head. 3. AFTER turning power off to the fixture, reconnect any loose wiring. |
Security light comes on during the day. | 1. Dusk-to-dawn sensor is in a shaded area and is fooled into thinking it is nighttime. 2. Dusk-to-dawn sensor is faulty. |
1. Shine a flashlight onto the light sensor. If the security light turns off then the fixture is mounted in an area that does not allow enough light to enter the sensor. Relocate security light. 2. If under warranty, contact Customer Service. |
Security light cycles ON and OFF continuously. | 1. Dusk-to-dawn sensor is sensing reflected light from the security light. | 1. Change position of light head aim light away from the reflecting surfaces. 2. Put a small piece of black electrical tape over the Dusk-to-dawn sensor control. 3. Relocate security light to a different location where it no longer causes reflected light. |
Security light comes on for no apparent reason at night. | 1. Light is sensing motion in the detection zone. | 1. Make sure the sensor is not picking up moving objects such as bushes, trees, traffic, water, etc. 2. Test the motion sensor by covering up the front curved lens with cardboard to block the view. If the light turns off then something in the detection zone is triggering the sensor. Reposition the motion sensor or change the sensitivity (distance) of the sensor. |
