Controlling Lighting for Maxiumum Energy Efficiency
DEFINITIONS
• Pa
ssive Infrared (PIR): A line of sight beam that reacts to heated motion across a field of view. It is
a type of sensor technology.
• Ultrasonic (U/S): A reflective wave form that reacts to disturbances in return wave form. It is a
type of sensor technology.
• Manual-ON: A room where a person is required to turn the lights ON upon entry.
• Auto-ON: A room which automatically turns the lights ON upon entry.
• Auto-OFF: Occupancy sensors automatically turn the lights OFF when the timer expires from the
last detected motion.
• Time Delay: The timer setting on the sensor from the last detected motion until the lights are
turned OFF.
• False-OFF: When the lights turn OFF while the room is still occupied.
• Vacancy Confirmation: If a false-OFF occurs, sensor enters high sensitivity (45 sec) to turn lights
ON with slight motion.
• False-ON: When the lights turn ON without anyone in the room.

FAQ S
Will the lights always work automatically?
•
For a manual-ON and auto-OFF room set-up: No, the lights need to be turned ON manually and will only turn
OFF automatically.
• For an
auto-ON and auto-OFF room set-up: Yes, the lights will turn ON and OFF automatically.
How can I tell which settings my system is on?
•
If the lights do NOT automatically turn ON when you walk two steps into a room, the occupancy sensor is set
up for manual-ON/auto-Off lighting control and you will need to manually turn the lights ON.
•
If the lights automatically turn ON when you walk into a room, the occupancy sensor is set up for auto-ON/
auto-OFF lighting control.
Will the lights ever turn off on me?
•
Occupancy sensors are not always exact and there are many variables to take into account that may cause the
lights to turn OFF inadvertently. This should be an infrequent occurence. We have designed features into the
product in order to reduce this occurence.
Will the lights be on when there is no one in the room?
•
Yes, occupancy sensors are equipped with a time delay feature which will start after the last motion is detected.
There will be a time delay period of 10, 20 or 30 minutes where the lights will remain ON after the last person was
in the room.
