Low Level
0% 50%
1. TEST MODE (daytime and nighttime operation.)
●
Slide the Time switch to “Test” position.
● The light turns to high-level brightness (5000K) when motion is detected, and stays on as long as the motion continues.
Then it reverts back to low-level brightness (0~50%) and CCT (Correlated Color Temperature) color
(2200K~5000K) as per setting about 5 seconds after motion is no longer detected.
2. AUTO MODE (nighttime operation only)
●
In "AUTO" mode,
slide the Time switch to the desired time setting
(30s/1min/3min). At dusk, the light turns on to pre-selected low-level
brightness and CCT color. When motion is detected, the light turns
to full brightness (5000K) and stays on as long as motion continues.
When the motion is no longer detected, the light at full brightness (5000K),
remains on for predetermined time you set (30s/1min/3min), and then
switches back to the pre-selected low-level brightness and CCT color
automatically.
● The light turns off automatically at dawn.
Note: You can adjust the low-level brightness (0~50%) and CCT color (2200K~5000K) by using the
low-level brightness (0~50%) knob and CCT color (2200K~5000K) knob on the backplate (See Fig.6)
3. PC MODE (nighttime operation only)
● In "PC" mode, the light turns on at full brightness at dusk and remains on until dawn.
Note: You can adjust the CCT color (2200K~5000K) by using the CCT color (2200K ~5000K) knob on the
backplate. (See Fig.6)
4. 3 HOURS (3H) MODE (nighttime operation only)
● In “3H” mode, the light turns to high-level brightness (100%) and pre-selected CCT (2200K~5000K) at dusk, and
stays "ON" for 3 hours, then after 3 hours it turns to Auto Mode. It then turns to high-level brightness (100%)
when motion is detected, and stays on as long as motion continues. When motion is no longer detected, it
remains on for the predetermined shut-off delay time you set (30s/1min/3min), then returns to the predetermined
low level brightness and CCT color automatically.
● The light turns off automatically at dawn.
Note: You can adjust the low-level brightness (0~50%) and CCT color (2200K~5000K) by using the
low-level brightness (0~50%) knob and CCT color (2200K~5000K) knob on the backplate (See Fig.6)
5. CUSTOM MODE (nighttime operation only):
●
In "CUSTOM" mode, the light turns on at dusk and off at dawn automatically.
Note: You can adjust the CCT color (2200K~5000K) by using the CCT color (2200K~5000K) knob
on the backplate (See Fig.6)
● Set motion sensor operation to go on at a specific time. Turn the wall switch “OFF”, and turn it “ON” twice
within 3 seconds. The light will go into motion-sensor operation at the specified time every night. The light
turns off automatically at dawn.
For example, a homeowner wants to have the light stay on high-level brightness from dusk to 8pm, and would like
the light to go into "AUTO motion sensor mode. To achieve this, the homeowner will turn the wall switch “OFF”,
and turn it “ON” twice within 3 seconds. This sets the time the light goes into "AUTO" mode every day, the light
will behave the same way.
To revert back to Default, turn the wall switch “OFF” and then turn it “ON” after 5 seconds.
Note: You can adjust the low-level brightness (0~50%) and CCT color (2200K~5000K) by using the low-level
brightness (0~50%) knob and CCT color (2200K~5000K) knob on the backplate (See Fig.6)
Choose a mode by rotating the switch on the bottom of the sensor of the fixture. (See Fig.5)
Note: When power is first applied, the light will be on and warm up lasts 30 seconds.

Shut-off Delay
● The shut-off delay is the length of time the light will stay at
brightness after motion is detected.
●
Notes:
1. The sensitivity of the motion sensor will increase as the
environmental temperature gets cooler. For best performance,
gently clean the lens with a soft cloth every 1 or 2 months to
ensure maximum sensitivity.
2. For best performance, install fixture at least 8 feet above the
ground. At such a height, the fixture will provide a detection
distance of up to 70 feet at 77 degrees Fahrenheit. (See Fig.8)
3. The sensor detects movement across a detection range of
240 degrees. (See Fig.9)
4. The sensor will be more sensitive to motion across its detection path than motion directly towards it. (See Fig.10)
5. To reduce possible nuisances, do not mount the fixture near a heat source like an air conditioner, vent or furnace
exhaust, or in a direction facing any reflective object or other nearby light source.

Where you install your fixture is important:
Be sure the light is mounted straight on the wall
or eave; otherwise, the detection distance may
be limited.
