Installation Steps

Turn off the power at fuse or circuit box

1. Unscrew the two set screws (D), remove the mounting plate unit (A) from the backplate.

2.  Attach the mounting plate unit (A) to the outlet box by using two mounting screws (B).
   Note: Make sure that the two set holes are lined up horizontally to make the fixture level.

3. Take a glass panel and gently slide it into the bottom notch of the frame in place, secure it by pressing the two clips on top side of the frame. Repeat with the other glass panels. (See Fig.1 and Fig.2)

4. Pull out the source wires from the outlet box. Make wire connections using wire connectors (C) as follows:
   • Connect the hot wire (black insulation) from the fixture to the black wire from the power source.
   • Connect the neutral wire (white insulation) from the fixture to the white wire from the power source.
   • Attach the fixture ground wire (bare wire) to the mounting plate unit (A) with the green ground screw.
   Then, depending on local code, connect it to the house ground wire with the wire connector (C).
   Carefully put all of the wires back into the outlet box.

5. Attach the backplate of the fixture to the mounting plate unit (A) by aligning holes, secure the two set screws (D) from the side hole of the backplate into the hole of the mounting plate unit (A).
   Note: With silicone caulk compound, caulk completely around where the backplate meets with the wall surface to prevent water from seeping into the outlet box.

6. Install the bulb (not included). See relamping label at socket area or packaging for maximum wattage allowed.

Function and Operation

MODES OF OPERATION

Choose a mode by sliding the switch on the back of the sensor. When power is first applied, the light will turn on immediately. Wait for 30 seconds to allow the sensor to warm up.

1. TEST MODE (daytime and nighttime operation)
   ● The light will turn to low-level brightness (0%~50% brightness). The light will turn to high-level brightness (100% brightness) when motion is detected, and stay on as long as the motion is continuing. The light will revert to low- level brightness about 5 seconds after motion is no longer detected.

2. 3H MODE (nighttime operation only)
   ● At dusk, the light will turn to high-level brightness (100% brightness). The light will turn to low-level brightness (0% ~50% brightness) automatically after 3 hours. The light will turn to high-level brightness (100% brightness) when motion is detected, and stay on as long as the motion is continuing. When motion is no longer detected, the light will remain on for the predetermined time you set (5~180 seconds), and then revert to low-level brightness you set.
   ● Light will turn off automatically at dawn, and return to 3 H mode at dusk.

3. 6H MODE (nighttime operation only)
   ● At dusk, the light will turn to high-level brightness (100% brightness). The light will turn to low-level brightness (0% ~50% brightness) automatically after 6 hours. The light will turn to high-level brightness (100% brightness) when motion is detected, and stay on as long as the motion is continuing. When motion is no longer detected, the light will remain on for the predetermined time you set (5~180 seconds), and then revert to low-level brightness you set. ● Light will turn off automatically at dawn, and return to 6 H mode at dusk.

4. 0 MODE (nighttime operation only)
   ● The light will turn to low level brightness (0%~50% brightness) at dusk. The light will turn to high-level brightness (100% brightness) when motion is detected, and stay on as long as the motion is continuing. When motion is no longer detected, the light will remain on for the predetermined time you set (5~180 seconds), and then revert to low level brightness you set.
   ● Light will turn off automatically at dawn, and return to 0 H mode at dusk.

5. Manual Override MODE (nighttime operation only; on at dusk, off at dawn)
   ● In 3, 6 or 0 mode, to shift to manual override mode, turn off the wall switch in 3 seconds and then turn it on again, the light will turn to high- level brightness at dusk, and turn off automatically at dawn. To return to the previous settings, turn off the wall switch in 3 seconds and then turn it on again. (See Fig.6 Fig.7)
   ● The lights will turn off automatically at dawn.

CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS

Shut-off Delay
The Shut-off delay is the length of time the light will stay at high-level brightness after motion has ceased to be detected.
This Shut-off delay can be set when operation is in 3, 6 or 0 Mode by using the “TIME” knob located on the left side of the panel at the back of the sensor lens (See Fig.7). To increase the shut-off delay, turn the knob clockwise. To decrease shut off delay, turn the knob counterclockwise. The delay may be adjusted from a minimum of 5 seconds to a maximum of 3 minutes. The light will stay on as long as motion is detected continuously and will automatically turn to low-level brightness when no more motion is detected after the delay time has passed.
Sensitivity of Motion Sensor
The sensitivity of the motion sensor can be adjusted by using the “Sens” knob located on the right side of the panel at the back of sensor lens (See Fig.7). To increase sensitivity, turn the knob clockwise. To decrease sensitivity, turn the knob counterclockwise. The sensitivity may be adjusted from a minimum of 5 feet to a maximum of 40 feet.

NOTE:

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 assure maximum sensitivity.
2. For best performance, install fixture at least 6 feet above the ground. At such a height, the fixture will provide a detection distance of up to 40 feet at 77 degrees fahrenheit. (See Fig.8)
3. The sensor detects across a detection range of 180 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 reflecting object or other light source.

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

Troubleshooting

• The light does not come on at all:
  1. Make sure the wall switch and circuit breaker are on.
  2. Make sure the wiring is correct.
  3. Make sure the bulb is not burned out.
  4. Cover the sensor with your palm to verify that the ambient light level is not too high.

• In Test Mode, the light stays on full brightness after 5 seconds:
  1. If during daytime, make sure the slide switch is at the TEST position.
  2. If motion continues to be detected.

• In 3H or 6H Mode, the light is still on full brightness, even though it has been 3 hours or 6 hours after dusk, respectively:
  1. Make sure no motion could be picked up by the sensor.
  2. Make sure that mode entry is not in manual override.

• After performing 3H or 6H Mode, the light stays on full brightness after 3 minutes:
  1. Make sure there is no movement that could be picked up by the sensor.
  2. Adjust the time knob counterclockwise to reduce the delay shut-off time.

• In 3H or 6H Mode, the light turns off completely, instead of low level brightness, after 3 minutes:
  1. Make sure the bulb you installed is a medium base bulb or LED dimmable bulb.
  2. Make sure the bulb is in working condition.
  3. Make sure the low level is not at the 0% position.

• The light blinks:
  1. Make sure the light is not mounted near a barbecue, air conditioner or other heat source.
  2. Adjust the sensitivity knob counterclockwise to avoid unnecessary triggering like a passing car or reflecting objects.
  3. Make sure the bulb is medium base bulb or LED dimmable bulb.
