INSTALLATION CONSIdERATIONS
The WS120 is a Decora-style module and is designed to use standard Decora-style cover plates
and mounting hardware. Decora cover plates (up to 6-gang) with color-matched plate screws are
available from your Niles dealer.
TOOLS REQUIREd
• 1/8” Standard Slotted Screwdriver
• 1/4” Standard Slotted Screwdriver
• Wire Stripper
TypE OF CABLE
The WS120 connects to the Niles infrared main systems unit or IRH610 sensor expansion hub
with an individual home run of CAT-5 cable. When running wires inside walls, most states and
municipalities in the U.S. specify that you must use a special type of wire. Usually, the requirement
is that the wire has a specific “CL” fire rating, such as “CL-2” or “CL-3”. Consult your Niles dealer,
building contractor, or local building and inspection department if unsure about which type of wire is
best for your application.
WS120 MOUNTING LOCATION
Locating the WS120 in the center of a room usually results in the most even IR receiving coverage,
especially if the room is square shaped. Rooms that are L-shaped or long and narrow require
more careful consideration. With these types of rooms, installing the WS120 closest to the primary
location of the user will ensure the best performance.
