- Automatically turns light off.
- Dusk Accent lighting.
- Photocell keeps the light off during daylight hours.
This package includes:
- Lantern
- Easy to use Universal Mounting Bracket
- Mounting Hardware
- Wire Connectors
- Some Models Include an Optional Decorative Tail Assembly
Requirements
- The light control requires 120 volts AC.
- If you want to use Manual Mode, the control must be wired through a switch.
- Some codes require installation by a qualified electrician.
OPERATION
Mode: | On-Time | Works: Day Night |
---|---|---|
Test | 5 Seconds | x x |
Auto | 1, 5, or 10 Min | x |
Manual | To Dawn* | x |
Accent | 3, 6 Hr, to Dawn | x |
resets to Auto Mode at dawn.
Note: When first turned on wait about 1 2 minutes for the circuitry to
calibrate.
TEST
AUTO
MANUAL MODE Mode Switching Summary
If you get confused while switching modes, turn the power off for one minute, then back on. Afterthe calibration time the control will be in the AUTO mode.
DUALBRITE Dimmer Control
Light comes on half bright for selected time after dusk (Off, 3 hr., 6 hr.,
until dawn). Selecting OFF disables this feature. The motion sensing features
will continue to work as described in this manual. If motion is sensed, the
light turns on full bright for the ON-TIME (1, 5, or 10 minutes) then returns
to dim mode.
INSTALLATION
For best performance, mount the fixture about 6 feet (1.8 m) above the ground
WARNING: Turn power off at circuit breaker or fuse.
This fixture comes with a universal mounting bracket. It is pre-assembled on
the fixture to fit the majority of junction box applications.
However, if the slots on the mounting plate do not line up with the junction
box screw holes:
- Remove the fixture mounting screws from the mounting plate. Note: Do not remove the ground screw.
- Attach ground wire “pigtail” to ground screw on mounting plate (See Recom- mended Grounding Methodfor additional information).
- Flip the mounting plate over.
- Rotate the mounting plate so the wire path is on the upper right. Note:The wire path on the mounting plate must be located as shown below to allow the wires on the back of the fixture to pass through.
- Reinstall the fixture mounting screws and attach the mounting plate to the junction box as shown.
WIRING
Note: All wiring should be run in accordance with the National Electrical
Code through conduit or another acceptable means.
Contact a qualified electrician if there is any question as to the suitability
of the system.
CAUTION: DO NOT connect the REDD wire unless you want to control other
lights from the motion sensor.
Twist the junction box wires and the fixture wires together as shown below. Secure with wire connectors. If you have a metal junction box, you may not need the green “pigtail”. you are unsure about the grounding method, consult your local building code. Connect the fixture wires to the wires in the junction box. Twist the wires together and secure with wire connectors.
Recommended Grounding Method
Use a green ground “pigtail” (not provided) and twist one end together with
the bare fixture wire and the box ground wire. Secure with a wire connector.
Secure the other end of the “pigtail”| with the GND screw on the mounting
plate.
OPTIONAL WIRING
This fixture is provided with a sensor rated for 360 Watts. Since the fixture
is only rated 100Watts (60 Watts for 4131 model and 180 Watts candelabra), 260
Watts (300 Watts for 4131 model and 180 Watts candelabra) of additional
lighting may be controlled by this sensor.
When determining what a fixture is rated for, do not simply look at the rating
on the light bulb in the fixture. Look at the marking which specifies the
maximum bulb wattage for which the fixture is suitable.
Once you have selected the fixtures to be connected and determined their
maximum ratings, add these ratings up. For instance, if you have 3 fixtures
rated 100 Watts, 150 Watts,
and 75 Watts respectively, you have a total load of 325 Watts.
Wiring Diagram 1- When wiring to control a standard light fixture: Strip
the motion
sensor’s red wire and connect to the standard light’s black wire. Connect all
white wires
together. Total fixture ratings must not exceed 360 Watts (3.0 A).
Wiring Diagram 2- When wiring to control another motion sensing light
fixture (Mas- ter/Slave): Strip the red wire in both light fixtures. Connect
the red wire of the controlling
(master) fixture to the red and black wires of the controlled (slave) fixture.
Connect all white Wires together. Total fixture ratings must not exceed 360
Watts (3.0 A).
Wiring Diagram 3 – When wiring so either motion light turns on both motion lights
(Master/ Master): Strip the red wire in both light fixtures. Connect the red wire of one fixture to the red wire of the second fixture. Note: In most installations, an additional wire (same gauge as existing house wire) will have to be installed in the house to connect the two fixtures as master/ master. Connect all white wires together and all black wires together. Total fixture ratings must not exceed 360 Watts (3.0 A).
COMPLETE THE INSTALLATION
- Stuff the wires into the junction box. Make sure the wires from the fixture go through the wire path, and no wires get pinched.
- Caulk fixture mounting surface with silicone weather sealant. You may want to wait until you have completed the tests and adjustments on page 6.
- Install light bulb. See fixture markings for proper bulb type and wattage.
- If so equipped, install the fixture top. Secure with decorative screws.
- If you will not be installing the optional tail assembly, install the decorative nut onto the bottom of the fixture now.
4182 Top Assembly
Optional Assembly
If so equipped, you may install the decorative tail as shown below.
TESTING
-
Turn on the circuit breaker and light switch.
Note : Sensor has a 1 ‘/2 minute warm up period before it will detect motion.When first turned on, wait 1 “2 minutes.
Note: Meets the ENERGY STAR guidelines when DUALBRITE function is off. -
Switch the on-time to TEST position and DUALBRITE Switch to the OFF position.
Avoid aiming the control at:- Pools of water or objects that change temperature rapidly, such as heating vents and air conditioners. These heat sources could cause false triggering.
- Areas where pets or traffic may trigger the control.
Nearby large, light-colored objects reflect ing daylight may trigger the shut- off feature. Do not point other lights at the sensor.
The detector is less sensitive to motion directly towards it and more sensitive to across motion.
-
Walk through the coverage area noting where you are when the lights turn on. Move the sensor head left or right to change the coverage area.
IMPORTANT: Grasp the sensor only as shown and turn the entire sensor. Any other method may damage the sensor. Do not force the sensor past the stop- ping points -
If you need to change the sensitivity, temporarily remove the fixture and make the adjustment. Too much sensitivity may increase false triggering.
-
Set the amount of TIME you want the light to stay on after motion is detected. (1,5, or 10 minutes).
-
Set the amount of time after dusk you want the lights on accent level.
