IMPORTANT: Loosen all lock nuts and screws on sensor and lamp holders before
making any adjustments.
NOTE: Always face control knobs on sensor downwards to ensure correct operation
Location of unit
To achieve best results for exterior use, your Movement Activated Floodlight should be securely
mounted to a wall or eaves in close proximity (max 300mm) to an existing bayonet style light fitting.
For ideal operation the sensor head should be located approx 2.5m above the area where movement
is to be sensed. This will provide the best scanning sensitivity and detection area.
• Although this product is weatherproof it is preferable to mount your Floodlight in a sheltered or
semi-sheltered location.
• To avoid damage to unit - do not aim the sensor towards the sun.
• To avoid nuisance triggering, the sensor should be directed away from heat sources such as BBQ's,
air conditioners, other outside lighting, flue vents and moving cars.
Important! Please read these instructions carefully.
