Installation
• Mount the unit on a wall in an open position, preferably facing south to
avoid direct sunshine and enhance service life.
• Don't mount unit in dark recesses where the natural change in daylight
does not directly influence the photo electric sensor.
• Don't mount indoors – light through windows may not be the correct
level for the photo electric sensor and the unit may not turn on and off as
intended.
• Don't mount where other lights may shine on the photo electric sensor, as
the unit may not turn on.
• Don't mount where the lights being controlled can shine on the photo
electric sensor, as it may cause the unit to cycle on and off repeatedly.
Important
• When the power is first applied to the unit, the load will turn on
for approximately 30 seconds and then turn off.
• The unit has a time delay circuit so that it is not affected by
sudden or brief changes in light level caused by intermittent
cloud cover, reflections or vehicle lights. This time delay
lasts for up to 3 minutes, both when switching on and when
switching off. When testing the unit, be sure to take this time
delay into account.
