PIR Sensitivity

1. Stand in different areas of the room and wave your hands.
2. If the Red LED does not turn ON, check for any obstructions.
3. Stand still three to four feet away from sensor for five seconds. LED should not turn ON.
4. If Red LED turns ON without motion or is constantly ON adjust PIR sensitivity to 50% by moving DIP Switch 5 up.

Field-of-view outside the space

1. Adjust PIR sensitivity to 50% by moving DIP Switch 5 up.
2. Use non-reflective tape strips to cover the portions of the sensor lens that view outside the space.

Daylight Adjustments

The Daylighting feature prevents the lights from turning ON when the room is adequately illuminated by natural light. 

If there is enough light in the room regardless of occupancy, the sensor will hold the lights OFF. If there is not enough 
light in the room, the sensor will allow the lights to turn ON. The Daylighting feature allows the selection of which relay to 
control via daylighting (dual load models only). The sensor will not allow the Daylighting feature to turn the load OFF until 
the space is vacant if the light level rises above the setpoint and the Time Delay expires. If someone attempts to turn the 
load ON and there is sufficient daylight available the Daylighting feature will hold the lights OFF. 

1. Set the light level when the ambient light is at the level where no artificial light is needed. If this feature is not 

needed, leave the light level at maximum (fully CW). 

2. Set DIP Switches 11 (Relay 1) and/or 12 (Relay 2) for 

daylight control. 

3. With the load(s) ON, put the sensor into Test Mode. To 

place into Test Mode, toggle DIP Switch 12 out of its 
current position, wait 3 seconds and then back in to its 
original position.

4. Set the light level to minimum (fully CCW). 
5. Let the sensor time-out so lights are OFF. Enter the 

space and lights should remain OFF. 

6. Make sure not to block the sensor from the daylight source and adjust the light level potentiometer CW in small 

increments. (Pause 5 seconds between each adjustment) 

7. Lights will not turn ON upon manual activation, when the ambient light level exceeds the daylight threshold setting.

Time Delay Adjustments

 

People who remain very still for long periods of time may 

need a longer time delay than the default setting of 10 minutes. 
As long as the self-adjusting feature is enabled, the switch 
will respond to each pair of false-offs with no normal OFF in 
between, by alternately making slight adjustments to either time 
delay (by 2 minute increments) or sensitivity, so there should be 
no need for manual adjustment. If manual adjustment is desired, 
refer to Time Delay settings in DIP Switch legend. 

Reset sensor Time Delay to factory settings by moving DIP 

Switches 1 and 2 down.  (If DIP Switches 1 and 2 are already 
down, toggle DIP Switch 1 out of its current position, wait 3 seconds, and then back to its original position)  

Override

The Override setting allows the sensor to operate as a service switch in the unlikely event of failure.
1. Move DIP Switch 8 up.
2. The pushbutton can be used to manually turn lights ON or OFF. 

4. Walk outside the room and wait 15 seconds for the lights to turn OFF. (If lights do not turn OFF go to Installer 

Adjustments Section)

5. Re-enter the room and manually activate the sensor. (If lights do not turn ON go to Troubleshooting Section)
6. At this point you can exit the room and let the sensor time-out. When the sensor times-out and is inactive for five 

minutes, the unit will go to a 10 minute Time Delay user mode setting.

 

Note:

  

To place into Test Mode, toggle DIP Switch 12 out of its current position, wait 3 seconds, and then back into its original position.

Possible Causes

Suggestions

Lights

manually

Daylight Feature Enabled

If all lights are required adjust DIP Switches 

11 and 12 and/or daylight potentiometer.

Power interruption

Check incoming voltage and/or wiring.

If lights will still not turn ON, set sensor to override mode and call Technical Services at 1-800-553-3879

Lights  

Will Not  

Turn OFF  

automatically

Override

Make sure sensor is not in Override Mode  

(DIP Switch 8 up).

Self-Adjust

If sensor is in Self-Adjust Mode, it may be possible for the 

unit to have increased the Time Delay to a 30 minute delay.   

If the lights do not turn OFF after 30 minutes follow next step.

30 Minute Delay

Maximum Time Delay is 30 Minutes.  Check DIP Switches  

to verify DIP Switch settings.  If lights do not turn OFF at the 

set Time Delay, check next step.

PIR activated by heat source other than occupant

Move DIP Switch 5 up.

Adjustments should be made with the HVAC system on so that the installer will be able to detect the effect of 

airflow on the operation of the VNW-P-1001-DMV. Use only insulated tools to make adjustments.

Immediately after applying power to the lighting 

circuit, wait approximately two minutes for the switch 
to power up and stabilize.

Self-Adjust 

Sensor is shipped in Self-Adjust Mode. This applies 

to time delay and PIR sensitivity. In preparation for the 
Installer Test, the time delay is set to 15 seconds, after 
the sensor is installed, powered ON and has stabilized, 
the unit will time-out 15 seconds after the last motion 
detected. Coverage and sensitivity can be confirmed by 
watching the Red (PIR) indicator LED on the front of the 
sensor, while moving around the room.

1. Walk around the room and monitor LEDs.
2. Stand in different parts of the room and wave 

your hands. LED should only turn ON for one 
second with each motion. (If LED does not turn 
ON, go to Installer Adjustments –Sensitivity 
Adjustment Section)

3. Stand still three to four feet away from sensor for 

five seconds. LED should not turn ON. (If LED turns ON, go to Installer Adjustments –Sensitivity  
Adjustments section)
