Expected Coverage - Desa JourneyMan Serie Manuel

Adjustments Continued . . .
❒
Loosen the thumbscrews, estimate the direction to aim the sensor and tighten
the thumbscrews just enough to hold the sensor in place.
❒
Walk through the coverage area noting where you are when the lights turn
on. Loosen the thumbscrews and readjust the sensor as necessary. Tighten
the thumbscrews (finger tight) when you are satisfied with the coverage di-
rection. Keep the sensor at least 1 inch (25 mm) from lamps and keep the
controls on the bottom.
❒
Adjust SENSITIVITY as needed to increase or decrease the range. Too much
sensitivity may cause false triggering.
❒
Set the amount of TIME (1, 5, or 20 minutes) you want the lights to stay on
after motion is detected at night.
❒
If you need to detect objects more than 70 feet (21 m) away, turn Range
Boost on. For maximum range, the sensor must be aiming straight out.
❒
Replace the rubber cover to protect controls.
The sensor is less sensitive to motion directly
towards it, most sensitive to motion across its
field of view.

When mounted 8 feet (2.4 m) from the ground, you
may expect the range shown below. If mounted much
higher the sensor may miss objects near the ground.
If mounted much lower the sensor range may be
reduced.
