Troubleshooting (continued)
Problem
The lights turn off too
late in the Dusk-to-
Dawn setting.
The lights stay on
continuously.
The lights flash on
and off.
The lights flash once
then stay off in manual
mode.
The wires need to
be removed from the
mounting plate.
Possible Cause
The light fixture may be installed in a
relatively dark location.
□
The motion sensor may be picking up a
heat source, such as an air vent, dryer
vent, or brightly painted, heat-reflective
surface.
□
The motion sensor is in manual mode
(after dark only).
□
The light fixture is wired through a
dimmer or timer.
□
The light fixture is on the same circuit
as a motor, transformer, or fluorescent
bulb.
□
Heat or light from the light panels may
be turning the motion sensor on and
off.
□
Heat is being reflected from other
objects and may be turning the motion
sensor on and off.
□
The motion sensor is in "TEST" mode
and warming up.
The motion sensor is detecting light from
the light panels.
The mounting plate connectors will not
release the wires.
Solution
Relocate the light fixture or use the 5
hour setting.
□
Decrease the "SENS" setting or
reposition the motion sensor.
□
Switch the motion sensor to auto or
wait until sunrise. See Using Manual
Mode on page 10.
□
Do not use a dimmer or timer to
control the light fixture. Replace the
dimmer or timer with a standard on/
off wall switch.
□
Install the light fixture on a circuit
without motors, transformers, or
fluorescent bulbs.
□
Reposition the light panels away
from the motion sensor.
□
Decrease the "SENS" setting or
reposition the motion sensor.
□
While in "TEST" mode, the light only
stays on for 5 seconds. Set the "ON-
TIME" to 5 or 20 minutes.
Reposition the light panels to keep the
area below the motion sensor relatively
dark.
Turn OFF power to the light
fixture. To remove the wires from the
mounting plate connector, twist the wires
back and forth as the wires are being
pulled from the mounting plate.
Push-in terminals not for reuse.
