Important Considerations; Troubleshooting - Utilitech 6211W-PIR26B User Manual

4. If needed, adjust the motion sensor to change the detection zone.
5. If needed, adjust the lamp heads to change the light coverage area.
6. If you need to change the sensitivity, set the DISTANCE switch to desired position (L, M or H).
DISTANCE set too high may increase false trigger.
7. Finally, change the time setting to the amount of time the fixture should remain on after motion is
detected (1 min., 3 min., or 10 min.).

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

Avoid aiming the sensor at:
1. Objects that might produce heat and may cause false triggers, such as:
●
Pools of water
●
Automobile traffic
2. Objects that may reflect light at the sensor, triggering the shut-off feature. Do not aim the sensor
at other lights, or aim other lights at the sensor.
