BASIC OPERATION
The MDS10-ID uses passive infrared (PIR) detec-
tion technology to monitor a room for occupancy
through a segmented Fresnel lens. This special-
ized lens divides the field-of-view into sensor
zones. When a person passes into or out of a
sensor zone, the sensor detects motion and
switches the lights ON. The lights will remain ON
as long as there is an occupant moving through
the sensor zones.
LEV-LOK TECHNOLOGY
Lev-Lok’s innovative design streamlines instal-
lation and reduces costs. In just two easy steps,
the wiring device is securely attached to the
wiring module. Place the wiring module over the
device’s connection pins and twist clockwise
to lock. Replacement is just as easy—just turn
counter-clockwise to unlock and remove. The
module is keyed so that it cannot be installed
incorrectly. This not only saves time during the
initial installation, but makes maintenance appli-
cations quicker, safer and easier as well.
APPLICATIONS
Leviton’s Cat. No. MDS10-ID Decora Wall Switch
Passive Infrared (PIR) Occupancy Sensor is used
to provide automatic lighting control for energy
savings and convenience in a variety of commer-
cial applications, including:
• Small offices
• Conference rooms
• Lounges
• Classrooms
The MDS10-ID can be used for automatic switch-
ing of incandescent lamps and fluorescent and
low-voltage lighting with electronic or magnetic
ballasts. The unit also features a manual over-
ride switch that can be used to keep lights OFF
while an area is occupied, which may be desired
in conference rooms and other areas during slide
or film presentations. The unit installs in place of
a single-pole wall switch and fits in a standard
wall box. The unit requires a ground connection.
