For best results

• Locate motion sensor so motion moves across

detection zone (K).

• Locate sensor away from heat producing sources to

prevent false triggering. Also, be very careful not to

include objects such as windows, white walls and water

in the detection zone whenever possible.

• Locate sensor away from moving objects such as street traffic.

Installing your landscape motion sensor transmitter

Step 1: Choose a desired location in your yard for landscape motion sen-

sor that has a clear view of driveway, walkway or area where motion is to

be detected. The landscape motion sensor will transmit up to 100 feet in

most cases, therefore, it must be located within this range from floodlight

receiver (a closer distance will achieve more consistent performance).

Step 2: Contact your local Utility Company to be sure that there are no

buried utilities in the selected installation site before installing spike. Adjust

installation site until a safe location has been found. Do not continue until

this step has been completed!

Step 3: Safety glasses must be worn during this installation step.

Place pointed end of mounting spike (J) on ground in approved

installation location. Using hammer/mallet drive mounting spike

into ground making sure that spike is as close to vertical as pos-

sible. Do not drive spike in ground any further than first horizontal

flange from the pointed end.

Step 4: Slide bottom end of post over top end of spike making

sure that vertical ribs on spike slide in between vertical ribs inside

of post. Holes on post align with holes in spike (L). Post will stop

with bottom of post at the top of largest horizontal rib on spike.

Step 5: Install both post mounting screws through holes in side

of post to secure post to spike.

Step 6: Loosen two screws on top flange of post and

point arrow towards center of desired detection area.

This could require removing the screws and installing

them again if slotted holes will not allow arrow to point

to center of desired detection area (M).

Step 7: Remove battery cover from driveway sensor head (A) by removing

screw from recessed hole in center of back cover. Install (4) "AA" alkaline

batteries in battery compartment making sure that batteries are installed in

the correct orientation as shown on printed diagram in battery area. Allow

60 seconds after batteries are installed before testing (see How to operate

your fixture for correct settings before replacing cover). Replace back cover

by aligning groove around perimeter of back cover with rib around perime-

ter of battery compartment while making sure that recessed screw hole

aligns with screw boss. Replace screw in recessed hole in battery cover

and tighten to secure cover to sensor housing.

Step 8: Install motion sensor head (A) on driveway sensor post (I) by align-

ing slots in flange on bottom of sensor head with protrusions on side of post

top. NOTE: Make sure motion sensor front is in the same orientation as

arrow on post flange. Rotate sensor head clockwise until locked in place.

Lens of sensor head should be pointing toward desired detection area.

Mounting your light fixture (receiver)

Step 1: WARNING: Risk of electric shock.

Disconnect power at fuse or circuit breaker

before installing or servicing.

Step 2: This mounting plate has been

designed to work with a variety of different

junction boxes. Line up the knockout holes

in the mounting plate with the screw loca-

tions in your junction box. Drill out the

matching holes in the mounting plate, using an electric drill and a 1/8" drill

bit or knock out the hole with a punch and hammer.

Step 3: Take the gasket included with this mounting plate and position it

behind the mounting plate. Line up the screws in the mounting plate with

the appropriate hole pattern in the gasket and remove gasket material in

those holes. When wall mounting, locate arrow on back of mounting plate

and mount with arrow pointing up.

Step 4: Connect lampholder wires to supply wires from house (white to

white and black to black) using wire nuts included. No ground wire

required. Attach any ground wire from your house to the junction box.

Step 5: Attach the mounting plate to your junction box using screws includ-

ed, making sure that the gasket is properly aligned and that all screws are

tightly secured. To prevent moisture from entering the junction box, apply a

bead of silicone sealant around the edge of the mounting plate where it

attaches to the junction box.

Step 6: Turn power on at the main fuse/breaker box.

Aiming the light

Loosen the knob on the side of the lamp holder. Tilt lamp holder up or

down to desired position then retighten knob. Tilt lamp holders at least 15°

downward. NOTE: Deviation from the assembly instructions may result in a

risk or electric shock.

How to operate your fixture

Step 1: Make sure motion sensor and remote light are

set to the same house code (fixtures will come from

factory already set to the same code). You may reset

the house code by turning the dial inside the battery

compartment of the driveway sensor head and the bot-

tom of the floodlight to the same number (N). There are

16 different selections

Step 2: Move slide switch inside battery compartment

of driveway sensor head to "TEST". Set sensitivity

knob to medium (halfway).

Your fixture mounts

to the following standard

junction boxes:

Step 3: Turn on power to floodlight receiver.

Step 4: Aim driveway sensor head toward desired detection area.

Step 5: Walk across the detection zone at the farthest distance you wish

your detector to detect motion. Adjust sensitivity until you get desired results.

Step 6: Your sensor is equipped with two lens shutters,

which will allow you to customize your detection area

down to 90 degrees. If the sensor is seeing at too wide

of an angle, or if you wish to block certain areas from

being detected, you can do so by simply locating the

shutters on either side of the lens. Carefully pull the

shutter(s) out using the two tabs on the front of the shutter (O). NOTE: Be

sure to use two fingers and pull the upper and lower tab simultaneously to

insure proper and even sliding. Each shutter will extend approximately 1-

1/2" to help prevent either side of the sensor from detecting motion.

Step 7: Move slide switch inside battery compartment to 4 MIN or 12 MIN

(AUTO mode). At dusk your lights will operate in the AUTO setting.

Step 8: Replace cover after all adjustments are made.
