PX

1. With the transformer unplugged, remove the two screws on the side of the transformer and the two screws on the back of the transformer.
2. Remove the two screws on the face of the clear plastic terminal block panel.
3. Lift the plastic panel (steel panel for PX-150) up to keep it out of the way. Important: Remove the red jumper wire located between the #9 & #10 terminal block positions (Figure 2).
4. The photocell comes equipped with three wires: a white common wire, a black hot wire, and a red switch wire. The white wire is installed into the lug labeled "120 V Common White." The black wire is installed into the lug labeled "Photocell Hot Black." The red wire is installed into the lug labeled "Photocell Hot Red" (Figure 3).
5. Loosen each lug with a flathead screwdriver, install the photocell wires into the proper location, and retighten the lugs.
6. Lower and reinstall the clear plastic terminal block panel. Pop out the ½" conduit knockout on the right side of the transformer, push the photocell photo eye out through the knockout, and secure the photocell to the transformer using the rubber washer and the plastic threaded nut.

To test the timer/photocell transformer during daylight hours, you will need to cover the photo eye on the photocell with either the bootie (included) or a piece of black electrical tape in order to simulate darkness.

If functioning properly, it will take up to 2 minutes for the photocell to activate. Do not prematurely assess that the photocell is defective. After waiting a couple of minutes, turn the timer's manual override switch on.
