FORWARD LOOKING LENS
Start by aiming the motion detector head downward. The motion
detector can see above the hood line so aim the head lower than you
think you will need. Walk in the area to be tested. When motion is
detected as you walk within the area, the lights will come on. Move to
a different spot in the area to be tested and stop all motion for about

8 seconds. The lights should turn off. Start walking again to see if
your motion is detected in the new spot. Repeat the walk test in other
spots of the desired coverage area to determine the coverage area. If
greater range is desired, raise the motion detector head slightly and
walk test the coverage area again. Your motion detector looks for
motion in 3 different regions pictured in Figures 3 the far region,
mid region, and near region. Be sure to walk through the entire area
to test for coverage in all regions.
LOOK DOWN LENS
The LOOK DOWN LENS mounted on the bottom of the motion head
provides enhanced rear detection. This feature is exceptionally
useful as it provides activation from multiple directions for enhanced
coverage.
CAUTION: Part of the far region looks above the hood line, so do
not aim the head too high. Aiming the head too high can lead to false
activations.
WALK-TESTING THE COVERAGE AREA:
To test the area covered by the motion detector, first switch to TEST
mode by turning the TIME knob to the TEST position. Make sure the
Mode Select knob is pointing to SECURITY. Walk in the area to be
tested. When your motion is detected, the light will come on. Move to
