INTRODUCTION
Models 5312 and 5318
Model 5318 meets the eNerGY STAr® guidelines when DuALBriTe® function is off and ON-TiMe is 1 or 5 minutes and when used with 120 W Max bulbs.
Features
- Turns on lighting when motion is detected.
- Automatically turns lighting off.
- DuALBriTe®
- Timer.
- Photocell keeps the lighting off during daylight hours.

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.
- This product is intended for use with the enclosed gasket and with a junction box marked for use in wet locations.

Mode Switching Summary
if you get confused while switching modes, turn the power off for one minute, then back on. After the calibration time the control will be in the AuTO mode.
DUALBRITE® Timer
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 20 minutes) then returns to dim mode.
INSTALLATION
- For easy installation, select an existing light with a wall switch for replacement.
- For best performance, mount the fixture about 8 ft. (2.4 m) above the ground. NOTE: if fixture is mounted higher than 8 ft. (2.4 m), aiming the sensor down will reduce coverage distance
For eave mount only:
Wire the Light Control
- remove the existing light fixture.
- install the mounting strap as shown using two screws that fit your junction box.
- The plastic hanger can be used to hold the fixture while wiring. The small end of the plastic hanger can be threaded through the hole in the center of the cover plate. The small end then goes into one of the slots on the mounting strap.
- route the light control’s wires through the large gasket holes.
- Twist the junction box wires and fixture wires together as shown. Secure with wire connectors.
Mount the Light Control
- Align the light control cover plate and cover plate gasket. Secure with the mounting bolt.
- For model SL-5318 only, align the three slots in the decorative shell with the bulb holder pins. Push the shell in and then twist clockwise to lock. repeat for another shell.
- Push the rubber plug firmly into place.
- if a wet-location junction box was not used, caulk the wall plate mounting surface with silicone weather sealant.
- Adjust the bulb holders by loosening the lock nuts but do not rotate the bulb holders more than 180° from the factory setting. When screwing in the floodlamps, do not overtighten.
TEST AND ADJUSTMENT
-
NOTe: Model 5318 meets the eNerGY STAr® guidelines when DuALBriTe® function is off and ON-TiMe is 1 or 5 minutes and when used with 120 W Max bulbs.
-
Turn the ranging control to the medium position (halfway between MiN and MAX), DuALBriTe® to OFF, and the ON-TiMe control to the TeST position.
-
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 reflecting light may trigger the shut-off feature. Do not point other lights at the sensor.
-
NOTE: if the fixture is mounted higher than 8 ft. (2.4 m), aiming the sensor down will reduce coverage distance.
-
The detector is less sensitive to motion directly towards it.
-
Loosen the clamp screw in the sensor ball joint and gently rotate the sensor.
-
Walk through the coverage area noting where you are when the lights turn on (also,
the LeD will flash several times when motion is detected). Move the sensor head up, down, or sideways to change the coverage area. Keep the sensor at least 1″ (25 mm) away from the bulbs. -
Adjust the rANGe as needed.rANGe set too high may increase false triggering.
-
Secure the sensor head by tightening the clamp screw. Do not overtighten the screw.
-
Set the amount of TiMe you want the lights to stay on after motion is detected (1, 5, or 20 minutes).
-
Set the DuALBriTe® switch to the amount of time after dusk you want the lights on at low level (Off, 3, 6 Hrs., Dusk-to-Dawn)

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
| SYMPTOM | POSSIBLE CAUSE | SOLUTION |
|---|---|---|
| Lights will not come on. | 1. Light switch is turned off. |
2. Flood lamp is loose or burned out.
3. Fuse is blown or circuit breaker is turned off.
4. Daylight turn-off is in effect.
5. incorrect circuit wiring, if this is a new installation.
6. Light control aimed in wrong direction.
| 1. Turn light switch on.
2. Check flood lamp and replace if burned out.
3. replace fuse or turn circuit breaker on.
4. recheck after dark.
5. Verify wiring is correct.
6. re-aim light control to cover desired area.
Lights come on in day- light.| 1. Light control may be installed in a relatively dark location.
2. Light control is in TeST.
| 1. The fixture is operating normally under these condi- tions.
2. Set control switch to 1, 5, or 10 minutes.
Lights come on for no apparent reason.| 1. Light control may be sensing small animals or auto- mobile traffic.
2. range is set too high.
3. DuALBriTe® timer is on.
| 1. re-aim light control.
2. reduce range.
3. The fixture is operating normally under these condi- tions.
Lights turn off too late in Dusk-to-Dawn setting.| Light control may be
installed in a relatively dark loca- tion.| relocate light control, or use 3
hr. or 6 hr. setting.
Lights stay on continu- ously.| 1. A flood lamp is positioned too
close to the light control or pointed at nearby objects that cause heat to
trigger the light control.
2. The light control may be picking up a heat source like an air vent, dryer vent, or brightly painted, heat- reflective surface.
3. Light control is in manual mode.
| 1. reposition the flood lamp away from the light control or nearby objects.
2. reduce range.
3. Switch light control to AuTO.
Lights flash on and off.| 1. Heat or light from the flood lamps may be turning the light control on and off.
2. Heat being reflected from other objects may be turn- ing the light control on and off.
3. Light control is in the TeST mode and warming up.
4. Light may be leaking through the flood lamp reflec- tors.
| 1. reposition the flood lamp away from the light con- trol.
2. reposition light control.
3. Flashing is normal under these conditions.
4. replace the flood lamps with new high quality PAr 38 lamps. (Make sure the metal lamp protectors are installed).
Lights flash once, then stay off in manual mode.| Light control is detecting its own lights.| reposition flood lamps to keep area below the light control relatively dark.
