All products manufactured by Novitas, Inc. and identified with the Novitas name are warranted to be free from defects in material and workmanship and shall conform to and
perform in accordance with Seller’s written specifications for a period of five (5) years from date of shipment. This warranty will be limited to the repair or replacement, at
Seller’s discretion, of any such goods found to be defective, upon their authorized return to Seller. This limited warranty does not apply if the goods have been damaged by
accident, abuse, misuse, modification or misapplication, by damage during shipment or by improper service. There are no warranties which extend beyond the hereinabove
limited warranty, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY AND THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS.
No employee, agent, dealer or other person is authorized to give any warranties on behalf of the Seller or to assume for the Seller any other liability in connection with any of
its goods except in writing and signed by the Seller.
The Seller makes no representation that the goods comply with any present or future federal, state or local regulation or ordinance. Compliance is the Buyer’s responsibility.
The use of the Seller’s goods should be in accordance with the provision of the National Electrical Code, UL and/or other industry or military standards that are pertinent to
the particular end use. Installation or use not in accordance with these codes and standards could be hazardous.
Once installed, the Sensors must be adjusted
for suitable sensitivity and time delay. These
adjustments can be made only after the entire
system is installed and power is applied to the
Switchpack and to the lighting circuit.
Adjustments should be made with the HVAC
system on.
1. Using a small screwdriver, set the
“Minutes” and “Sensitivity” controls to minimum by turning the adjust-
ment completely counter-clockwise.
2. If override switches were installed, check their operation. Leave in the automatic
position.
3. Stand completely still or leave the room. In approximately 15 seconds, the lights
will go out.
4. Test the area of coverage by watching the red LED on the Sensor. The LED lights
only when the Sensor is detecting motion. Adjust the Sensitivity control upwards
to the lowest position that provides adequate motion detection. Do not set higher
than necessary. Test and set Sensitivity control for each Sensor if more than one
was installed.
5. If the red LED blinks when no motion is being made or does not go off at all, air
motion from the HVAC system may be activating the Sensor. Relocate the
Sensor away from the air turbulence.
6. In smaller rooms, the Sensor may be activated by people moving by the doorway
outside the room. Adjust the Sensitivity control toward minimum to prevent this.
7. Set the time delay Minutes control to the desired time for the lights to remain on
after leaving the area. Minimum time is approximately 15 seconds (for installer
testing); maximum is about 30 minutes. The recommended time delay is usually
six to eight minutes. An eight-minute time delay is approximately 11 o’clock on
the Minutes control. People who remain very still for long periods may need a
longer time delay. If the lights go out while the room is occupied, increase the
time slightly until optimum time delay is reached.

U.S. Letters Patent No. Des. 337, 733
CAUTION: 01-190-BAS is for use with 10-30 VDC only. For other volt-
ages refer to Novitas Tech Sheets. Do not wire to control receptacle
circuits.
If wiring to the Switchpack, confirm supply voltage before wiring the
Switchpack. Switchpack has a 120 VAC hot lead (black) and a 277 VAC
hot lead (orange). The connection of 277 V to the 120 V lead will damage
the Switchpack and any connected Sensors. DO NOT control more than
ten Switchpacks with a single Sensor.
Use twist-on wire connectors for all connections. All installations should
be in compliance with the National Electrical Code and all state and local
codes.
Novitas Sensors are provided with Teflon-insulated pigtails. The compo-
nents are interconnected using 18 AWG Class 2 wiring per NEC 725. Use
UL-recognized Teflon insulated wire approved for plenum areas per NEC
725-2(b) where required.
If connecting the Sensor to a 13-051 Switchpack or BAS System, refer to the
wiring diagram at left. If using a 13-041, 13-061 or 13-071 Switchpack, refer
to the Wiring Diagram on the Tech Sheet for that Switchpack.
WIRING
WIRING DIAGRAM
LED will not turn ON:
• Verify 10-30 VDC across the red and black wires of the Sensor.
• If there is no power at the Sensor, check for 10-30 VDC at the power source.
• If the voltage is OK, recheck all wiring and connections.
• If the LED still doesn’t operate, Sensor is defective; the circuit board should be replaced.
Lights will not turn ON:
• Confirm that no other switches or equipment are interrupting or bypassing power
to the Switchpack or load.
• If using a Switchpack, short the blue and black Switchpack control leads together
to energize the relay.
• If the lights turn on, the Sensor is defective, and the circuit board should be replaced.
• If the lights do not turn on, check wiring on the Switchpack load side and check
Switchpack contacts for continuity. Replace the Switchpack if necessary.
Lights will not turn OFF:
In smaller rooms, the Sensor may be activated by people moving in the hallway out-
side the room. Adjust the Sensitivity control toward minimum to prevent this or relo-
cate the Sensor. If the lights will not turn OFF after the time period set on the
Sensor, and the LED has not lit during the time period:
• Confirm that no other switches or equipment are interrupting or bypassing power
to the Switchpack or load.
• Verify that the override switch on all Sensor circuit boards is in the “auto” position.
• Temporarily unplug the Sensor circuit board(s).
• If the lights turn off, the Sensor is defective, and the circuit board should be replaced.
• If you are using a Switchpack and the lights do not turn off, replace the
Switchpack.
NOTE: If multiple Sensors/Switchpacks are installed, check one at a time.
The 01-190-BAS has a built-in override switch on the printed circuit board designed
to turn the load on in the event of Sensor failure when the Sensor can not be
replaced immediately. The Switchpack must be operative for this switch to work. If
the Switchpack is defective, it must be replaced or bypassed to activate the load.
To operate this switch, remove the cover of the Sensor and move the override switch
from the “auto” position to the “on” position. All Switchpacks connected to the
Sensor will now be energized. If multiple Sensors control the same Switchpack(s),
activating the override switch on any one Sensor will activate all of the Switchpacks.
SENSOR COVER REMOVAL
1. To remove the cover from the Sensor unit, grasp the corners and pull
down gently. Unit will snap open.
2. Locate the manual-on override switch.
3. Use needlenose pliers to remove the JP2 shunt (for computer sweep
applications only). Removal of the shunt enables a three second time
delay which prevents false activation of lighting when power is first
applied to switchpack. In facilities where no computer sweeps are
used, leave the shunt in place (the factory default setting).
4. To replace the cover, position controls to line up with the holes in the
center of the cover. Unit will snap closed.
