SENSOR ADJUSTMENT
The Light Level and Time Delay adjustment trimpots are located under the lens
assembly. The trimpots are accessed easily after the sensor is mounted in the
fixture. Gently unscrew the lens assembly. Do not remove the thumbscrew
collar; it holds the sensor in place on the fixture. Identify each trimpot.
Set the light level when the controlled light would normally be turned OFF due
to the presence of sufficient daylight or other electric light. [If this feature is not
needed, leave the light level at maximum (fully clockwise)].*
* At the maximum setting, the light level entering the photosensor must exceed
120fc, which only happens in rare applications or when the lens is removed.
Test Occupancy Sensor
1. Set Light Level to maximum (fully clockwise, factory setting) and Time
Delay to minimum (fully counterclockwise). Put the lens assembly back
onto the sensor.
2. Move out of the sensor’s view. Lights turn OFF after 30 seconds.
3. Move into the controlled area. The red LED in the sensor lens should
illuminate and the lights turn ON.
Test and Adjust Light Level Sensor and Time Delay
1. Remove the lens assembly and adjust the light level and the time delay
to minimum. Put the lens assembly back onto the sensor. Leave the
controlled area and let the sensor time out so lights are OFF.
2. Enter the controlled area and lights should remain OFF.
3. Make sure your body does not cast a shadow on the sensor. Turn the light
level trimpot clockwise in small increments. After each adjustment, put the
lens back on the sensor then move about the controlled area. Wait 5‑10
seconds to see if the lights turn ON.
4. Continue this procedure until the lights turn ON. At this setting the lights
will not turn ON with occupancy if the light level is above the current level.
5. Set the time delay to the desired setting. The time delay can be set from
30 seconds (fully counterclockwise) to 30 minutes (fully clockwise).
COVERAGE PATTERN
Density and range of the coverage pattern is determined by the type of lens and mounting height. See the FS‑LxW Lens Module
Coverage Guide for a description of the available coverage patterns.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Lights will not turn ON:
• LED does not flash ‑ Check all wire connections.
• LED does flash:
▸ Check all wire connections.
▸ Check light level setting. Cover the sensor lens to simulate darkness in the room. If the lights come ON, the light level needs to
be adjusted. If set for minimum, more than 10fc of ambient light will cause the lights to be held OFF. See Sensor Adjustment
section for instructions.
• If lights still do not turn ON, call 800.879.8585.
Lights will not turn OFF:
The time delay can be set from a minimum of 30 seconds (fully counter‑clockwise) to a maximum of 30 minutes (fully clockwise). Ensure
that the time delay is set to the desired delay and that there is no movement within the sensor’s view for that time period.
• To quickly test the unit for proper operation, turn the time delay to minimum and move out of the sensor’s view. Lights should turn
OFF after 30 seconds.
• If lights still do not turn OFF, call 800.879.8585 for technical support.
Operation during Power-Up
During the sensor warm‑up period, which can last up to a minute after initial power‑up (or after a lengthy power outage), the load will
remain ON until the selected time delay expires.
