Questions & Answers
Frequent activation can be caused by traffic, pedestrians, animals, vegetation, heat movement, reflective surfaces, or excessive sensor sensitivity. Repositioning the sensor or adjusting its detection settings may provide more targeted operation.
The best location depends on the area being monitored and the direction people or vehicles approach. Mounting should provide useful light coverage while allowing the sensor to detect intended movement without unnecessarily monitoring unrelated areas.
Often, provided the existing electrical box, wiring, mounting surface, and control arrangement are suitable. Sensor operation may also depend on how the existing wall switch supplies power to the fixture.
