TESTING AFTER INSTALLATION
To facilitate coverage testing, the factory setting for Time Delay is 12 seconds, and the Light Level is at Maximum.
If you want to test a sensor for intended detection or operation:
1. Make sure that the time delay is set to 12 seconds and the light level is set to maximum (clockwise to the sun icon. The dials are
located on the bottom of the sensor.)
2. Adjust sensor and lamp holders to the desired position.
3. Ensure that power has been restored to the sensor.
4. Move into the location to be tested; lights should turn on. Stand still. In about 12 seconds the lights should turn off. Move or walk
and the lights should turn on. Repeat this process to test other locations. Make sensor coverage adjustments as needed (see
Sensor Positioning).
NOTE: When power is restored to the sensor, the lights will turn on for approximately one minute. (See Security Override.)
NOTE: If the lights do not turn on with movement in the area after they have turned off in step 4, the level of daylight may be too high and
the sensor’s light level adjustment is keeping the sensor inactive. Wait until daylight levels have reduced before testing again.
5. See Dial Adjustments, for guidelines to adjust the time delay and light level to the desired settings for operation.
DIAL ADJUSTMENTS
Time Delay and Light Level control dials are located on the bottom of the sensor.
1. Adjust Time Delay:
The time delay is the amount of time that elapses before lights turn off since the sensor last detected motion. This can be set from
12 seconds to 16 minutes. For normal operation, the time delay should be set to 1 minute or more.
• In areas where there is mostly walk through movement, the time delay amount can be low.
• In areas where people may stop and remain for periods of time, the time delay should be set to a higher amount, preferably 16 minutes.
2. Adjust Light Level:
Turning the light level adjustment dial raises or lowers a daylight level in the sensor. When the light of the day rises above this
set level, the sensor becomes inactive; this keeps the lights off when there is enough daylight present.
We suggest initially setting the light level adjustment to half way between minimum and maximum. If a different setting is desired after
installation, then follow the Making Changes procedures.

MAKING CHANGES
If you want the lights to turn on/high sooner—turn the light level dial toward the sun icon, as desired; this raises the light level setting.
(Remember, the sensor must detect motion for lights to turn on.)
• The lights turn on sooner in the evening.
• The lights stay on longer in the morning.
If you want the lights to turn on later—turn the light level dial toward the moon icon, as desired; this lowers the light level setting.
(Remember, the sensor must detect motion for lights to turn on.)
• The lights turn on later in the evening.
• The lights turn off sooner in the morning.
