5.1 Obsah balení

• 1 x Woods 59411WD Photocell Light Control Unit

5.2 Montáž

1. Identify a suitable location for the photocell. It should be exposed to natural daylight and not obstructed by eaves, trees, or other structures. Avoid locations where artificial light sources (e.g., streetlights, porch lights) might shine directly onto the sensor, as this can cause improper operation.
2. The unit features a 1/2" IPS threaded stem. Mount the photocell into a standard 1/2" knock-out hole on a junction box or light fixture. Secure it with the provided nut and gasket to ensure a weatherproof seal.
3. Utilize the swivel mount to adjust the sensor's direction for optimal light detection, ensuring it faces the open sky and away from direct artificial light sources.

5.3 Zapojení

The Woods 59411WD photocell has three color-coded wires for connection:

• Černý drát: Connect to the 120V AC ČÁRA (HORKÉ) wire from your power source.
• Bílý drát: Připojte se k NEUTRÁLNÍ wire from your power source and to the neutral wire of the light fixture.
• Červený drát: Připojte se k LOAD (HOT) wire of the light fixture.

Use appropriate wire connectors (not included) to secure all connections. Ensure all connections are tight and insulated.

5.4 Kontrola po instalaci

1. Once wiring is complete and all connections are secure, restore power at the circuit breaker.
2. The light may turn on initially. Due to the built-in time delay, it may take several minutes for the unit to sense ambient light and turn off if installed during daylight hours.
3. Test the unit at dusk to ensure it activates correctly.

6. Návod k obsluze

The Woods 59411WD Photocell Light Control operates automatically once installed and powered. It requires no manual intervention for daily operation.

• Automatický provoz: The photocell sensor continuously monitors ambient light levels. When the light level drops below a certain threshold (dusk), the unit will activate the connected light fixture. When the light level rises above the threshold (dawn), the unit will deactivate the light fixture.
• Časová prodleva: The integrated time delay prevents nuisance switching due to momentary shadows, car headlights, or other brief light changes. This ensures stable operation.
• Adjusting Light Sensitivity: If your unit includes a light level adjustable slide (typically a small lever or dial), you can fine-tune the sensitivity to adjust when the light turns on/off. Experiment with small adjustments to find the optimal setting for your environment.

7. Údržba

The Woods 59411WD Photocell Light Control is designed for minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks can ensure optimal performance:

• Čištění: Periodically wipe the photocell sensor lens with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt, dust, or debris that may accumulate and obstruct light detection. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
• Kontrola překážek: Ensure no new obstructions (e.g., growing foliage, new structures) are blocking the sensor's view of natural light.
• Kontrola připojení: Annually, or if issues arise, ensure all electrical connections are secure and free from corrosion. Always turn off power at the circuit breaker before inspecting wiring.
