TEST AND ADJUSTMENT
❒
Turn on the circuit breaker and light switch.
❒
Loosen the clamp screw in the
sensor ball joint and gently 
rotate the sensor.
❒
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). Move 
the sensor head up, down, or 
sideways to change the cover-
age area. 
Keep the sensor at
least 1" (2.5 cm) away from 
the lamps.
❒
Adjust the RANGE as needed.
RANGE set too high may 
increase false triggering.
❒
Secure the sensor head by 
tightening the clamp screw. 
Do not overtighten the screw.
❒
Set the amount of TIME you want the lights to stay
on after motion is detected (1, 5, or 10 minutes).

Avoid aiming the control at:
• Objects that change temperature rapidly, such as
heating vents and air conditioners. These heat 
sources could cause false triggering.
• Areas where
pets or traffic may trigger the control.
•
Nearby large, light-colored objects reflecting light 
may trigger the shut-off feature. Do not point other 
lights at the sensor.
