OVERVIEW

The BDS-700 is a low voltage dual-tech wall switch sensor in 
the IR-TEC’s WALLSENZR family designed to fit in a NEMA 
standard wall box. This state-of-the-art wall switch sensor 
combines digital Passive Infrared (PIR) and High Frequency 
Doppler (HFD) sensing technologies into an aesthetically 
pleasing housing to provide superior occupancy/vacancy 
sensing control for various applications. HFD is an advanced 
sensing technology which utilizes super high frequency radio 
waves to detect the object movement, similar to ultrasonic but 
without grid openings on the front.

   
The sensor output will be activated to turn ON the load as 
programmed via the connected power pack or BMS when it 
detects the presence of an occupant, and will turn OFF 
automatically if no motion is detected before the delay time 
elapses. To meet compliance of specific energy code, such as 
CA Title 24, the BDS-700 series can be programmed as a 
Vacancy Sensor. In vacancy sensing mode, the sensor output 
will only be activated by pressing the push-button manually 
and will turn OFF the load automatically per the sensor delay 
time. The BDS-700 allows for the push-button operation to be 
programmed with different manual control modes.  

The sensor comes with an ambient light sensor (ALS) to 
inhibit the lighting if ambient light level is higher than required. 
The Accu-Set digital potentiometers make delay time (TIME) 
and ambient light level (LUX) settings fast, easy and accurate. 
Isolated dry contact output allows the BDS-700 series to 
control the load with IR-TEC Power Packs or integrate with 
BMS/BAS.

INDOOR USE ONLY
Utilisation a L'interieur Uniquement

The PIR sensor is more sensitive to the movements 
“crossing” the detection zones than “toward” or “away” 
it. To obtain better sensitivity, ensure the sensor to have 
clear field of view for the occupant’s motion within the 
desired detection coverage. 

In general, the HFD sensor has better sensitivity to the 
minor motions than the PIR sensor. The HFD sensor 
could possibly detect the movements out of sight 
through non-metallic partition or enclosure. If so, 
reduce the HFD sensitivity to prevent unwanted 
triggering.    

The sensor should be mounted within the specified 
mounting height to achieve optimal performance. 

Do NOT mount the sensor directly above or nearby a 
heat source, or where unintended motion (e.g. hallway 
traffic) will be “seen” by the sensor.
