Specifications
Description
The Passive Infrared (PIR) Single Relay Vacancy Sensing Wall Switch with Night Light is a lighting control and Wall
Switch all-in-one that is used for energy savings and convenience.
PIR Technology
The Passive Infrared (PIR) Single Relay Vacancy Sensing Wall Switch with Night Light uses Passive Infrared (PIR)
sensor technologies to monitor a room for occupancy.
The VNLW-P-1001-MV-N allows the control of one load with one vacancy sensor switch.
The lights are turned ON by pressing the universally recognized light icon Pushbutton. The lights stay ON as long
as the sensor detects motion in the room. When the room is vacated, the lights turn OFF automatically after a preset
Time Delay interval.
A 30 second grace period is added after the lights shut OFF to give the occupant time to move again in case the
lights shut OFF. This prevents the occupant from having to walk-up to press the Pushbutton to reactivate the sensor.
The night light activates when sensor turns lights OFF. This feature can be disabled, see DIP Switch Settings.
The sensor includes self-adaptive technology that continually adjusts to conditions by adjusting sensitivity and
Time Delay in Real-time. By adjusting sensitivity and Time Delay automatically, the sensor is maximizing the potential
energy savings that are available in the particular application.
Location
When installing the VNLW-P-1001-MV-N in a new junction box, choose the switch location carefully to provide
optimum coverage of the occupied area. When replacing an existing Wall Switch, bear in mind that there must be a clear
Line-of-sight between the sensor and the area to be covered. Avoid pointing the VNLW-P-1001-MV-N directly into the
hallway where it may detect passers-by.
Installation
The VNLW-P-1001-MV-N can be installed in any standard single
gang box. It may be installed in the same manner as an ordinary
Wall Switch.
• Wire the VNLW-P-1001-MV-N as described in the wiring section.
• Mount the VNLW-P-1001-MV-N in the junction box.
Wiring
CAUTION: Before installing or performing any service on a Greengate system, the power MUST be turned OFF
at the branch circuit breaker. According to NEC 240-83(d), if the branch circuit breaker is used as the main
switch for a fluorescent lighting circuit, the circuit breaker should be marked “SWD.” All installations should be
in compliance with the National Electric Code and all state and local codes.
NOTE REGARDING COMPACT FLUORESCENT LAMPS: The life of some compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) is
shortened by frequent automatic or manual switching. Check with CFL and ballast manufacturer to determine the
effects of cycling.
1. Make sure power is turned OFF at the branch circuit breaker.
2. Wire units as shown in wiring diagrams per applicable voltage requirements.
3. Mount unit to Wall Box.
4. Turn power back ON at the branch circuit breaker and wait 2 minutes for the unit to stabilize.
5. Make necessary adjustments. (See Checkout and Adjustments section)
6. Install Wall Switch plate.

CAUTION: If a room is wired for two circuits using two separate hot leads, it is very important to connect only one circuit per
relay. Both circuits must be fed from the same phase.
