Requirements
• The light control requires 120 volts AC
• To comply with California Energy Commission, it is required that the
control is wired through a switch.
• If you want to use the Manual Override mode, the control must
be wired through a switch. Note: Do not use with light dimmer or
timecontroled circuits.
• This product is intended for use with a junction box marked for use in
wet locations.
• Do not install on the same circuit with an electic motor.
• For best performance, mount 6-10ft high.
Motion Sensor
HOW DOES THE MOTION SENSOR WORK?
The Motion Sensor’s infrared sensor “sees” small temperature
changes caused by the motion of objects within its detection zone
and turns on the lights automatically. Large animals or a strong
infraredsourcesuchasvehicleheadlightsorsunlightreectingoff
a surface can also trigger the sensor.
HOW LONG DO THE LIGHTS STAY ON?
Lights remain on as long as there is movement within the detection
zone. Once the zone is vacated, lights can be adjusted to remain
on for approximately 1 to 10 minutes.
WHAT IS THE SIZE OF THE DETECTION ZONE?
Sensors can detect motion up to 70’ away in a 180° detection range.
As the distance from the sensor increases, larger movement will be
required for detection. For example at 10’ a single step across the
detection pattern may be enough to trigger the light, while at 50’
several steps may be necessary for detection.
Sensors function best when the direction of expected movement is
across its detection pattern, not towards the sensor. Mount 6-10 ft
high for optimum range and detection.
Model Number: OMS 1000
CAN THE LIGHTS STILL BE TURNED ON/OFF
WITH A LIGHT SWITCH?
At night lights can be turned on or off manually with a wall switch
or circuit breaker.

    How to fix Lithonia Lighting OMS 1000 Accessories when lights will not come on?
    • R
      Randall CameronAug 1, 2025
      If your Lithonia Lighting Accessories lights won't turn on, there are several potential causes: 1. The light switch might be off; turn it on. 2. A fuse could be blown, or the circuit breaker might be off; replace the fuse or turn the circuit breaker on. 3. The circuit wiring may be incorrect; verify the wiring is correct. 4. If the outdoor temperature is getting warmer, increase the sensitivity. 5. The photocontrol might not be working; slide the TIME/TEST switch to the Test position to see if the photocontrol works. 6. Motion may not be detected; check if the red LED indicator light comes on.

    Why do my Lithonia Lighting Accessories lights stay on continuously?
    • D
      David SullivanAug 6, 2025
      If your Lithonia Lighting Accessories lights are staying on continuously, here are a few possible reasons: 1. The sensor might be in Manual Override mode; follow the manual override instructions to reset it. 2. The coverage area might be too large; adjust the motion sensor downward. 3. The sensor could be picking up a heat source, such as an air vent, dryer vent, or a brightly painted, heat-reflective surface; try reducing the sensitivity.

    What to do if Lithonia Lighting Accessories lights come on for no apparent reason?
    • R
      Robert DelacruzAug 9, 2025
      If your Lithonia Lighting Accessories lights are turning on for no apparent reason, it could be due to the following: 1. The sensor might be detecting small animals or cars; reduce the sensitivity. 2. The sensitivity might be set too high; reduce the sensitivity. 3. The outdoor temperature is getting cooler; reduce the sensitivity.

    Why Lithonia Lighting OMS 1000 Accessories lights will not trigger with motion?
    • T
      taylor00Aug 14, 2025
      If your Lithonia Lighting Accessories lights aren't triggering with motion, consider these possibilities: 1. The sensitivity may be set too low; turn up the sensitivity in small steps. 2. No motion is detected; verify the red LED indicator light is flashing.

    How to stop Lithonia Lighting OMS 1000 Accessories lights from flashing on and off (strobing)?
    • J
      jamesjoshuaAug 18, 2025
      If your Lithonia Lighting Accessories lights are flashing on and off (strobing), the issue might be: 1. Heat or light from the lamps turning the light control on and off; reposition the lamp heads away from the sensor. 2. Heat being reflected from other objects affecting the sensor; reduce sensitivity. 3. The sensor being in Test mode; while in TEST mode, the light only stays on for 5 seconds. 4. Lights controlled by the sensor shining or reflecting into the photocell; reposition the sensor in small increments.

    Why Lithonia Lighting Accessories lights come on in daylight?
    • M
      Melinda BlackAug 22, 2025
      If your Lithonia Lighting Accessories lights are coming on during the day, it could be because: 1. The sensor may be located in a relatively dark location; the fixture is operating normally under these conditions. 2. The sensor is in TEST mode; slide the TIME/TEST switch to the Time position.

    Why Lithonia Lighting OMS 1000 range appears limited?
    • R
      Robert LittleAug 27, 2025
      If the range of your Lithonia Lighting Accessories appears limited, check the following: 1. The sensor is not level; position the sensor exactly level from side to side. 2. The sensor is mounted too high; if mounted above 20 feet, much of the usable range will be lost. Mount at 6 to 10 feet for maximum range. 3. Movement is directly towards the sensor; adjust the sensor, as it will detect movement across the detection pattern more quickly. Adjust the sensor in ¼” increments.
