Noticing Items about Construction Work
• Don’t turn over, lead wire must be under side.
• Must be installed the place which avoid the direct
electric light.
• Don’t install in dark place in a day time.
• First, connect the load wire.
• Load wire : RED
• Common wire : WHITE
• Power wire : BLACK
• When use the check cover, it takes 30-60
seconds to light.
• When lighting in a day-time, SELCON will be
hitch.
• When light off in a night, lamp will be broken
PHOTOELECTRIC SWITCH
Installation
• Installing metal, washer and screws as
shown in the right drawing (remarks).
• Be sure to set point A of installing
metal on indication mark.
• B, lighting side of SELCON.
•If the lighting, side of SELCON catched
a strong light, sometimes not be lighted.
•In this case change the angle of
point A 90 degrees right to left.
