ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

T0729

WARNING: Turn off the main power at circuit breaker before installing fixture.

NOTE: 1. Before installing, consult local electrical codes for wiring and grounding requirements. 2. Read and save these instructions.

Important to Know

1. Read all instructions carefully before installation and operation.
2. If you are not familiar with state and local electrical codes, it is recommended that you consult with a qualified electrician.
3. Before installation, shut off power at the main fuse or circuit breaker box. Be aware that simply turning off the wall switch is not sufficient to prevent an electrical shock.
4. This fixture requires a 120V AC, 60 Hz power source.
5. Do not attempt to take the lantern apart; there are no serviceable parts inside.
6. To avoid sensor damage by lightning or electrical surge, make sure the ground wire is securely connected.
7. For general safety and to avoid any possible damage to the sensor, be sure the power is switched "off" before replacing the bulb.
8. Compatible with most LED dimmable bulbs.

Maximum Wattage: 60W Bulb

Working Temperature: -22°F\~113°F

Features

1. Energy saving fixture.
2. When in manual override mode, use wall switch to keep the light ON till dawn.

Installation Steps

Turn off the power at fuse or circuit box

1. Unscrew the two set screws (D), remove the two rubber pads (E) and the mounting plate unit (A) from the backplate.
2. Attach the mounting plate unit (A) to the outlet box by using two mounting screws (B).

3. Pull out the source wires from the outlet box. Make wire connections using wire connectors (C) as follows:

4. Connect the hot wire (black insulation) from the fixture to the black wire from the power source.

5. Connect the neutral wire (white insulation) from the fixture to the white wire from the power source.
6. Attach the fixture ground wire (bare wire) to the mounting plate unit (A) with the green ground screw, then depending on local code, connect it to the house ground wire with the wire connector (C).

Carefully put all of the wires back into the outlet box.

1. Attach the backplate of the fixture to the mounting plate unit (A) by aligning holes, then secure it with two rubber pads (E) and two set screws (D).
   Note: With silicone caulk compound, caulk completely around where the backplate meets with the wall surface to prevent water from seeping into the outlet box.
2. Attach the glass shade to the socket and secure it with socket ring.
3. Install the bulb (not included). Check relamping label at socket area or packaging for maximum wattage allowed.

Turn on the power at fuse or circuit box.

Step 1: Rotate the sensor clockwise or counter-clockwise at maximum 90 degree to access the adjustable knobs. (See Fig.1)

Step 2: Adjust time and sensitivity, choose the mode you want by turning the knob. (See Fig.2 and Fig.A).

Step 3: Restore the sensor to original position by rotating to the opposite direction. (See Fig.3)

Function and Operation

MODES OF OPERATION

Choose a mode by turning the rotary knob. The light will turn on immediately when power is applied. Wait for 30 seconds to allow the sensor to warm up.

1. Test MODE (daytime and nighttime operation)

- The light will turn on when motion is detected, and stay on as long as the motion continues. The light will turn to low-level brightness (30%) after 5 seconds when motion is no longer detected.

2. Off MODE (nighttime operation only)

- At dusk, the light stays off and will turn to high-level brightness (full brightness) when motion is detected, and stay on as long as the motion continues. When the motion stops, the light will stay on for the predetermined time set (5\~180 seconds), then the light will turn off.

3. Auto MODE (nighttime operation only)

• At dusk, the light will turn on when motion is detected, and stay on as long as the motion continues. When the motion stops, the light will remain on for the predetermined time set (5\~180 seconds) and then turn to low-level brightness (30%).
• The light will turn off automatically at dawn.

4. PC MODE (nighttime operation only)

- The light will turn on automatically at dusk and turn off at dawn.

5. Manual Override MODE (nighttime operation only)

- To shift to the manual override mode, set the switch to "Auto" or "Off" mode. Turn the wall switch "OFF" and "ON" within 3 seconds. The light will remain on until dawn. To restore to the "Auto" or "Off" mode, turn the wall switch "OFF" and "ON" within 3 seconds. (See Fig.4)

- The light will last for one night only and turn off automatically at dawn.

Note: 1. Always keep the wall switch in the "ON" position (including daytime).

1. Please notice the warm up time is 30 seconds, any operations are invalid during this time.

Customization Options Shut-off Delay

1. The Shut-off delay is the length of time that the light will stay on after motion stops.
2. The Shut-off delay can be adjusted by using the "Time" knob when the knob is set in "Off" or "Auto" mode. (See Fig.5)
3. The range of shut-off delay is 5 seconds to 3 minutes.
4. Rotate the knob clockwise for increasing the shut-off delay.
5. Rotate the knob counterclockwise for decreasing the shut-off delay.

Sensitivity of Motion Sensor

1. The sensitivity can be adjusted from 5 to 30 feet by using the "Sens" knob. (See Fig.5).
2. Turn the knob clockwise for increased sensitivity.
3. Turn the knob counterclockwise for decreased sensitivity.

NOTE:

1. The sensitivity of the motion sensor will increase as the environmental temperature gets colder. For best performance, gently clean the lens with a soft cloth every 1 or 2 months to ensure maximum sensitivity.
2. When installed at a height of 6.5 feet, at 77 degrees Fahrenheit, the light will provide a maximum detection distance of 30 feet and detection range of 150 degrees. (See Fig.6, Fig.7)
3. The sensor will be more sensitive to motion across its detection path than motion directly towards it. (See Fig.8)
4. To reduce possible nuisances, do not mount the fixture near a heat source like an air conditioner, vent or furnace exhaust, or in a direction facing any reflecting object or other light source.

Where you install your light is important: Be sure the light is mounted straight on the wall; otherwise, the detection distance may be limited.
