IMPORTANT SAFETY AND INSTALLATION INFORMATION

Before installing security light, read all instructions carefully and keep owner’s manual for future reference.

• WARNING: To prevent electric shock, please ensure that power is disconnected before installation.

• WARNING: Risk of fire. Keep fixture at least 51 mm (2") from combustible materials. Do not aim at objects

1m closer than 1 meter (3 feet).

• CAUTION: Allow fixture to cool before touching. The bulb and the fixture operate at high temperatures.

• CAUTION: Use only T3, 250W (maximum) tungsten halogen 230 VAC lamps.

• CAUTION: Keep the sensor at least 25 mm (1") away from the bulb.

• CAUTION: The sensor must be mounted below the lamp housing for wall installations.

• This fixture must be connected to a 230V-240V ~ 50Hz power source.

• The fixture must be properly grounded.

• This fixture is designed for outdoor installation and should be mounted to a wall or eaves.

• To achieve best results, this fixture should be mounted 2.4 meters (8 feet) above the ground. Note: If fixture is mounted higher than 2.4 meters (8 feet), aiming the sensor down will reduce coverage distance.

• Do not use dimmer switches or timers with this fixture.

• Replace any cracked or broken safety shield.

The sensor on this light fixture detects “motion” by the movement of heat across the coverage area. However, following are examples of objects that also produce heat and can cause the sensor to trigger:

• Pools of Water

• Heating Vents

• Air Conditioners • Dryer Vents

• Automobile Traffic

• Animals

If you suspect that a heat source of this type is triggering the sensor, reduce the sensitivity.

The sensor on this fixture is more sensitive to the movement of heat moving across the coverage area and less sensitive to the movement of heat directly towards it.

INSTALLATION

This light fixture must be installed by a licensed electrician or other person authorized by legislation to work on fixed wiring or other electrical installations.

Canopy Extension

UP

WARNING: Turn power off at circuit breaker or fuse. Place tape over circuit breaker switch and verify power is off at the fixture.

Rubber Gasket

IMPORTANT: Do NOT use with dimmers or timers.

For best performance, mount the fixture about 2.4 meters (8 feet) above the ground. Note: If fixture is mounted higher than 2.4 meters (8 feet), aiming the sensor down will reduce coverage distance.

This fixture comes with a canopy extension. It is pre-assembled on the fixture for shipping.

1. Remove the center mounting bolt connecting the fixture canopy to the canopy extension (see

Figure 1). Note: Be sure rubber gasket is on the canopy extension.

2. Place the canopy extension against the mounting surface and mark the positions for the mounting screws (see Figure 2). Note: When positioning the canopy extension for mounting, do the following:

• Keep the mounting tabs level

• Make sure the canopy extension is turned as shown in Figure 2

• Make sure the house wiring is located behind or below the rubber grommet.

3. Use a power drill to drill into the wall to provide a suitable mounting for the screws.

• Canopy extension mounting screws are not included. Use 4mm dia. (8G) x 30mm screws.

• Care should be taken to avoid drilling or screwing into concealed electrical wiring.

• For solid brick walls, screws and masonry plugs should be used.

4. Make a small hole in the rubber grommet and route the house wire through the hole (see

Figure 3).

5. Attach the canopy extension to the surface.

3. Align the center hole on the fixture canopy with the center hole on the canopy extension and attach using the mounting bolt removed in step 1 of Installation (see Figure 6).

IMPORTANT:

• If wall mounted, make sure the fixture is mounted with the sensor below the bulb holders.

• If eave mounted, mount the fixture with sensor facing away from the house wall (see

Eave Installation Information for important sensor orientation information).

4. Push the rubber plug firmly into place (see

Figure 7).

5. Caulk around top half of canopy extension with silicone weather sealant (see Figure 7).

6. Install bulb. Do not exceed wattage rating on fixture label.

EAVE INSTALLATION

INFORMATION

IMPORTANT: For under eave installation only, the sensor head must be rotated as shown in the next two steps for proper operation and to avoid the risk of electrical shock. For proper under-eave operation, install light shield (included). See

Light Shield Installation for details.

1. Rotate the sensor head towards the clamp screw joint (see Figure 8).

2. Then rotate the sensor head clockwise 180° so the controls face down (see Figure 9).

Note: If the sensor pops out of the ball joint, loosen the clamp screw and push the sensor back into the ball joint. Tighten the clamp screw when done.

Controls

Important: Use a clean glove or cloth when handling the new bulb. Use isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol to clean the bulb if it is touched with your bare hands.

NOTE: The bulb is included, but need to be installed. The bulb is located behind the glass cover of the lamp head.

1. Remove glass cover and remove the old bulb by pushing the bulb towards the right until the left side of the bulb is clear of the left socket.

2. To install the bulb, place one end of the bulb on the contact in the right socket. While pushing the bulb against the right contact, lower the other end of the bulb onto the contact in the left socket.

3. Spin the bulb to verify it is seated properly.

4. Re-install the glass cover.

For proper operation and safety, the light fixture must be above the sensor and the sensor head must be rotated so that the controls are on the bottom.

3. Adjust the lamp head by loosening the lock nut or using a screwdriver. The lamp head must be mounted horizontally (see Figure 11). After positioning lamp head, tighten the lock nut and apply thread sealant to ensure lamp head does not rotate.

WARNING: Risk of fire. Do not aim the bulbs at a combustible surface within 1 meter (3 feet).

4. Loosen the clamp screw in the sensor ball joint and gently rotate the sensor.

5. Walk through the coverage area noting where you are when the lights turn on (also, the LED will flash several times when motion is detected). In

TEST mode, light will stay on for 5 seconds after motion has stopped and then turn off.

Aim Sensor Down for Short Coverage up, down, or sideways to change the coverage

Aim Sensor Higher for Long Coverage area. Keep the sensor at least 2.5 cm (1") away from the bulbs.

6. Adjust the RANGE as needed. RANGE set too high may increase false triggering due to heat sources in the coverage area (see Trouble-

shooting section).

7. Secure the sensor head by tightening the clamp screw. Do not overtighten the screw.

8. Set the amount of ON-TIME you want the light to stay on after motion is detected (1, 5, or 10 minutes). The timer will reset as long as there is motion present. Once motion has stopped, the timer will time-out after the selected amount of time.

RIGHT WRONG

The halogen light must be mounted horizontally (+/- 4°).

LIGHT SHIELD INSTALLATION

If your light does not come on at dusk or turns off unexpectedly, then another light source may be activating the daytime shutoff feature. Possible sources of light interference are street lights, landscape lighting, other security lights or lanterns, or an interior house light shining through a window.

It could also be reflective light, such as from a pool or light colored wall.

To install the light shield, follow these simple steps.

1. Remove protective backing from the bottom of the light shield.

2. Position light shield over the photocell with the opening facing away from the interfering light.

3. Press the adhesive side firmly against the photocell to mount it permanently in place.
