INSTALLATION
SELECT A LOCATION
The sensor is more sensitive to motion across the front
of the sensor than to motion towards the sensor.
The detector senses heat in motion and possibly heat
sources that change temperature quickly. Therefore,
to avoid false triggering, avoid placing the sensor
where it will be aimed at air conditioners, heaters,
and other sources of heat or cold.
Features include:
• 150° motion detection angle
• Selectable on-time from 5 minutes to 30 minutes
(or 30 seconds in TEST mode)
• Adjustable photocell
• Works with electronic and magnetic ballasts
• Works with incandescent, halogen, compact fluo-
rescent (CFL), fluorescent, and LED lighting
• Works with motors up to 1/8 hp
• Slide switch selectable OFF, ON, and AUTO
modes

The 3-way motion sensor wall switch automatically
controls indoor lighting. In AUTO mode, the control
automatically turns the light on when motion is
detected. The motion sensor keeps lights on for a set
period of time after motion is last detected.
Installation is as easy as replacing a wall switch.
Some codes require installation by a quali-
fied electrician.
