Intermatic IOS-CMP-U Installation And Configuration Instructions Download Page 1

DESCRIPTION:

The IOS-CMP-U 360° Passive Infrared (PIR) Line  Voltage Occupancy Sensors control lighting systems 

based on occupancy and ambient light levels. When movement is detected, the sensor turns the lights 

ON. If no movement is detected for a user-specified time, the lights are turned OFF.  The occupancy 

sensor provides a 360° coverage pattern, up to 1200 square feet.

MOUNTING THE SENSOR

NOTE: A junction box and Phillips screwdriver are needed to complete this procedure. 
1.  Make sure power is turned off at the main disconnect.

2.  Remove the screws on the occupancy sensor cover and remove the cover from the sensor. 

3.  Observe these guidelines when mounting the sensor:

•  The occupancy coverage area may be more or less than the sensing distances shown in Figure 1 

  due to potential coverage area obstacles, such as furniture or partitions.

•  Place the sensor 4 to 6 feet away from air supply ducts to prevent false activations. 

•  If you mount the sensor outside of 8 to 10 feet from the floor, it affects the coverage pattern.

•  Decreasing the mounting height decreases the sensor range and increases the sensitivity to 

  smaller motions. Mounting the sensor at heights more than 12 to 14 feet reduces sensitivity

•  Each occupant should be able to clearly view the sensor to guarantee no obstruction in the area

•  Avoid placing the sensor directly in line with an open door through which it has a clear view out. 

  This may cause the sensor to detect people walking by the door. 

•  To obtain complete coverage in large areas, install multiple sensors to create an overlap with each

   adjacent sensor’s coverage area.

4. Connect high voltage wires to the appropriate terminals on the sensor. See the table below and 

  Figure 4.

5. Loosen the mounting screws attached to the junction box. 

6. Align the sensor the mounting screws in the box over the keyholes on the sensor’s rear housing.  

7. Push the sensor into the junction box and align the mounting screws on the junction box with the 

  keyhole slots on the sensor so that the screws are seated in the keyhole slots. Tighten mounting 

 screws.

8. Re-install the front cover on the sensor and secure with the screws previously removed.

 

ADJUST THE LIGHT LEVEL

The Light Level feature enables the user to adjust the level of light needed to be detected before 

the sensor turns lighting ON. Remove the cover from the sensor and adjust the lighting from

the light level dial on the sensor (see Figure 5). You can set the dial anywhere b or – to

obtain the optimal brightness configuration for the room (see Figure 3). 

SENSOR ADJUSTMENT

Follow this procedure to verify the sensor coverage and customize the settings.

1.  Remove the screws on the front cover and remove the cover.

2.  Make sure all the furniture in the sensing area is installed, the lighting circuits are turned on and 

  the HVAC systems are in the Override position.

3.  If there is a VAV (Variable Air Volume) system, set it to the highest airflow.
