How do I optimize the motion sensor on my COOPER LIGHTING SOLUTION MST18R17L security light?

[BradleyAnn]

To ensure your COOPER LIGHTING SOLUTION MST18R17L Bronze Round LED Security Light functions optimally, proper adjustment of the motion sensor is key. Here's a guide to help you: First, install the sensor between 8 and 12 feet above the ground; higher placements can reduce sensitivity. Second, position the sensor so that movement crosses its detection zone for the best results. Third, minimize false triggers by keeping the sensor away from heat sources and reflective surfaces such as windows or water. Also, avoid aiming the sensor toward moving objects like trees or busy streets. Next, adjust the sensor head's angle towards your desired detection area, maintaining a 5°–15° downward angle for effective moisture drainage. Finally, test the sensor by walking across the detection zone at the farthest distance you desire detection; adjust the sensor head until you achieve your desired responsiveness. Remember, the lights will turn off approximately 4 seconds after all motion ceases.
