NSTALLATION
You can install the Motion Monitor assembly in a wall box that is powered at all times
or in a wall box that is controlled by a wall switch, but if it is controlled by a wall
switch, make sure you leave the switch on at all times. Turning the switch off will
completely disable the Motion Monitor.
CAUTION: To prevent severe damage to the unit, do not connect it to a wall box that is
controlled by any kind of dimmer or remote controlled switch.
WARNING: Before making the following connections, be sure to turn off the power
to the junction box that you are installing the Motion Monitor Assembly into. If you
don't, a serious shock hazard will exist!
1. Install the gasket (supplied) onto the junction box, and route the house wiring
through the gasket.
2. Connect the GREEN wire from the mounting plate to the bare ground wire in the
junction box, or ground screw if there is one.
3. Connect the WHITE (Neutral) wire from the Motion Monitor assembly to the house
wiring's WHITE (Neutral) wire, using a wire nut.
4. Connect the BLACK (Live) wire from the Motion Monitor assembly to the house
wiring's BLACK (Live) wire, using a wire nut.
5. Make sure no bare whiskers of wire stick out from the wire nuts (cover with electrical
tape if necessary).
6. Secure the mounting plate to the junction box using the screws provided.
7. Secure the insulating ring in each lamp holder and screw a bulb (max. 150W, not
supplied) into each lamp holder.
Note: The Motion Monitor has a special lens that "looks"
downwards. It must therefore be mounted to face outwards
horizontally, i.e. do not "aim" the sensor downwards.

ONTROLS AND
Adjusting the Motion Monitor Coverage
• Set the DUSK control fully clockwise to LIGHT.
• Set the RANGE control fully clockwise to MAX.
• Set the TIME DELAY to 0.1 minutes (approx. 6 seconds)
using a flathead screwdriver.
• Swivel the sensor head toward the area you want to cover. Be
sure the sensor head remains level from side-to-side and level
with the ground.
• Aim the floodlights at the area you want to light.
• Turn on the power and wait for one minute.
• Walk around the covered area. Whenever the sensor "sees"
you the floodlights turn on and remain on for six seconds after
you stop moving. If necessary, reorient the sensor head so
normal road traffic does not activate the Motion Monitor.
Dusk control
After checking that the unit works during the day with the Dusk
setting turned fully clockwise, you might want to set the unit to only
operate at night. The best setting for the dusk control is indicated by
the index mark. This setting should be tried before making any
further adjustments. The setting of the dusk control is quite sensitive,
so only make small adjustments each time.
• Turn the control toward DARK if the Motion Monitor operates too early in the day.
• Turn the control toward LIGHT if the Motion Monitor operates too late in the day.
• Turn the control all the way to LIGHT for the Motion Monitor to work all the time.
Note: When you change the setting of this control, or when the light level changes, the
new setting does not take effect until 10 minutes after the setting was changed or the
light level changed.
Range control
• Turn towards MAX to increase range.
• Turn towards MIN to avoid traffic, pets or small animals triggering the Motion
Monitor.
Time Delay switch
• Set to desired time for lights to stay on after no further motion has been detected.
