Refer to the wiring diagrams and install the sensor according to these directions.
For single pole applications, wire the sensor switch according to wiring diagram #1 using the wire
nuts provided.
1. The sensor black wire will connect to the hot wire (black) in the Wall Box.
2. The sensor red wire will connect to the wire which goes to the light fixture.
3. The sensor blue wire is not used and should be capped OFF with a wire nut.
4. The sensor green wire will connect to the ground wire in the Wall Box.
5. Install the sensor loosely using the mounting screws provided.
6. Apply power and wait one minute. Verify that the sensor works by pushing the ON/OFF button
to verify the lights turn ON and OFF. You must wait 2 seconds between button presses. If the
lights do not work, then turn OFF the power and swap the connections on the sensor black
and red wires.
7. Apply power again and verify that the sensor works by pushing the ON/OFF button to verify
the lights turn ON and OFF.
8. Turn power OFF and go to COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION.
For 3-way applications, wire the sensor switch according to wiring diagram #2A or 2B using the
wire nuts provided. The sensor may be placed at either end of the 3-way circuit.
1. Remove the existing switch in the location where the sensor will be installed.
a. The sensor black wire will connect to either one of the black wires in the Wall Box.
b. The sensor red wire will connect to the other black wire in the Wall Box.
c. The sensor blue wire will connect to the red traveler wire in the Wall Box
d. The sensor green wire will connect to the ground wire in the Wall Box.
e. Install the sensor loosely using the mounting screws provided.
2. Remove the existing switch in the other 3-way location.
a. Connect the two black wires together.
b. Connect the bare ground wire in the Wall Box to the common terminal (usually a black
screw or a marking such as COM or COMMON near the terminal) on the 3-way switch.
c. Connect the red wire to either of the other switch terminals.
d. Re-install the 3-way switch and tighten securely.
3. Apply power and wait one minute. Verify that the sensor works by pushing the ON/OFF
button. You must wait 2 seconds between button presses. The lights should turn ON and
OFF. If the lights do not work, then turn the power OFF and swap the connections to the
sensor black and red wires.
4. Apply power again and verify the sensor works by pushing the ON/OFF button to verify the
lights turn ON and OFF.
5. Turn power OFF and go to COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION.
For 2 sensor applications, wire the sensor switches according to wiring diagram #3 using the wire
nuts provided.
1. Remove the existing switch in the 3-way location where the first sensor will be installed.
a. The sensor black wire will connect to the two black wires in the Wall Box.
b. The sensor red wire will connect to the red wire in the Wall Box.
c. The sensor blue wire is not used and should be capped OFF with a wire nut.
d. The sensor green wire will connect to the ground wire in the Wall Box.
e. Install the sensor loosely using the mounting screws provided.

Specifications
Description
This Sensor Wall Switch can replace a standard Wall Switch in any of the following applications:
• Single location – one Single Pole switch.
• Two location – one location is the sensor and the other location is a standard 3-way switch
• Two location – replace both 3-way switches with sensors.
The OSW-P-0801-120 turns ON automatically when a person enters the room.
The VSW-P-0801-120 requires manual activation to turn ON the lights.
Both OSW-P-0801-120 and VSW-P-1001-120 will automatically turn OFF lights after a
selectable Time Delay.
OSW-P-0801-120 includes a light level adjustment for daylight to prevent motion from turning
ON the lights.
Auto ON Sensor – OSW-P-0801-120
OSW-P-0801-120 will turn ON lights automatically when a person enters the room.
Lights will turn OFF automatically when no motion is detected after a selectable Time Delay.
The selectable Time Delays are 5 seconds (Test Mode), 5 minutes (factory default), 10 minutes,
20 minutes and 30 minutes.
Manual ON Sensor – VSW-P-0801-120
The VSW-P-0801-120 must be turned on manually with the ON/OFF button.
Lights will turn OFF automatically when no motion is detected after a selectable Time Delay.
The selectable Time Delays are 5 seconds (Test Mode), 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes and
30 minutes (factory default).
When the lights have turned OFF due to a lack of motion, the lights will turn ON automatically if
motion is detected within 30 seconds.
Installation
Wiring
CAUTION: Before installing or performing any service on a Greengate system, the power
MUST be turned OFF at the branch circuit breaker. According to NEC 240-83(d), if the
branch circuit breaker is used as the main switch for a fluorescent lighting circuit, the
circuit breaker should be marked “SWD”. All installations should be in compliance with
the National Electric Code and all state and local codes.
NOTE REGARDING COMPACT FLUORESCENT LAMPS: The life of some compact fluores-
cent lamps (CFLs) is shortened by frequent automatic or manual switching. Check with CFL
and ballast manufacturer to determine the effects of cycling.
1. Make sure power is turned OFF at the branch circuit breaker.
2. Wire units as shown in wiring diagrams per applicable voltage requirements. (Use twist-ON
wire connectors for all connections) CAP ALL UNUSED WIRE LEADS.
3. Mount unit to wall, ceiling, junction box, or round fixture with raceway.
4. Turn power back ON at the branch circuit breaker and wait 2 minutes for the unit
to stabilize.
5. Make necessary adjustments. (See Checkout and Adjustments section)
