twist one end together with the bare fixture wire
and the box ground wire. Secure with a wire con-
nector. Secure the other end of the “pigtail” with
the GND screw on the X-bar.

This fixture is provided with a sensor rated for 360 Watts. Since the fixture is only rated 100 Watts, 260 Watts of
additional lighting may be controlled by this sensor.
When determining what a fixture is rated for, do not simply look at the rating on the lamp in the fixture. Look
at the marking which specifies the maximum lamp wattage for which the fixture is suitable.
Once you have selected the fixtures to be connected and determined their maximum ratings, add these rat-
ings up. For instance, if you have 3 fixtures rated 100 Watts, 150 Watts, and 75 Watts respectively, you have
a total load of 325 Watts.
When wiring to control a standard light fixture: Strip the motion sensor’s red wire and connect to the
standard light’s
black wire. Connect all white wires together. Total fixture ratings must not exceed 360 Watts
(3.0 A).
When wiring to control another motion sensing light fixture: Strip the red wire in both light fixtures. Con-
nect the
red wire of the controlling (master) fixture to the red and black wires of the controlled (slave) fixture.
Connect all white wires together. Total fixture ratings must not exceed 360 Watts (3.0 A).
If you have metal junction box, you may not need the
green “pigtail”. If you are unsure about the grounding
method, consult your local building code.
It is also possible to wire two motion lights so that either fixture will turn on both lights at the same time (dual
master system). It is recommended that only people with plenty of electrical experience attempt this configu-
ration. Please call our customer service number (1-800-858-8501 - English speaking only) before attempting
this wiring.
if the dual master wiring is not done correctly, it can destroy both motion sensing fixtures
and void your warranty.
