Product Overview
Preparation
Before assembly, there are important preparations to make.
To prepare for installation:
-
TURN OFF POWER TO YOUR FLOODLIGHT CIRCUIT AT THE FUSEBOX TO ENSURE NO POWER IS BEING SENT. If you
are unsure of which breaker controls the circuit, then turn off the main power switch.
If you do not know where your breaker is or how to turn off the power, consult a licensed electrician. -
Verify that the supply voltage is correct. Connect the fixture to a 100 VAC~240 VAC 50/60 Hz power source.
-
DO NOT connect floodlight to a dimmer switch or timer
-
If you are not replacing a light fixture, you will need to run power cabling to the install location, and purchase a UL-listed junction box for a licensed electrician to install.

Mount the floodlight camera 10 feet (3 meters) high with the motion detector
leveled to the ground for optimal detection of human-sized objects as far as
32 feet (10 meters).
