Technical Tips:
Lights Turn Off too quickly
1. Check if sensor is being "tricked" by reflected light. If lights controlled by
the sensor shine or reflect into the photocell (located behind the lens) the
unit will go on briefly, see its own light, and turn off "thinking" that it is
daytime:
Problems:
Lights reflect into photocell
Lights shine directly into photocell
Solution:
Adjust SUN/MOON knob
slightly clockwise, to allow
operation at higher ambient
light levels. Alternatively, move
the lights or reflectos or mask

the lens in the direction of the

2. Check if "R" lamps, non-reflector "A" lamps or self-ballasted PL lamps are
being used in non-enclosed lampholder. If so, switch to reflector PAR
floodlight lamps so the sensor is not affected by stray light. If using PAR
floodlights, consider using lower wattage, energy saving lamps.

Technical Tips:
Range Appears Limited
1. Check that the sensor is level
from side to side and pointed
at the area you desire. If unit
is tilted, part of the detection
zone may be high in the air over
people's heads.
Solution: Position sensor
exactly level from side to side.
2. Check that the sensor is not
mounted too high. If mounted
above 20' , much of the usable
range will be lost.
SENS
Solution: Mounting at 6' to 10'
allows maximum range.

3. Check that movement is not
directly towards sensor. Sensor
will see movement across its
pattern more quickly. To fix, move
the sensor.
4. Check that movement far away
and directly towards sensor is not
entirely within one zone.
Problem:Sensor will not detect
until movement crosses zones.
Solution:"Micro Adjust" sensor
by moving sideways 1/4". This
may move the zones to allow
earlier detection.
