LCX Series
Microwave Motion Sensor
Models: LCX-OCC
Safety Precautions
Read all safety precautions and installation instructions carefully
before installing or servicing this motion sensor. Failure to comply
with these instructions could result in potentially fatal electric shock
and/or property damage.
This motion sensor is designed for use in a 110-120VAC, 60Hz fused
circuit.
Make sure that the power source conforms to the requirements of the
sensor (see labels on sensor housing).
It is recommended that a qualified electrician perform all wiring. This
motion sensor must be wired in accordance with all national and local
electrical codes.
Do not handle any energized appliance or attempt to energize any
appliance with wet hands or while standing on a wet or damp surface
or in water.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, and to assure proper operation,
this motion sensor must be adequately grounded. To accomplish
proper grounding, there must be a separate ground wire (yellow) or
bare metal contact (metal conduit) between this motion sensor and
the ground connection of your main power supply panel.
This motion sensor is intended to be used for general indoor lighting
in dry or damp locations.
Assembly Instructions
1. Preparing for installation
A. Disconnect electrical power before installing or servicing any
part of this appliance.
B. Remove all parts and parts bags from carton.
C. Separate motion sensor unit, remove cover (I}, jumper cable (2),
and hardware BX conduit connector (3).
2. Wiring. All wiring must take place inside motion sensor.
Caution: Make sure power is off at fuse or circuit breaker box. Check
power wires for damage or scrapes. If power supply wires are within three
inches of driver use wire suitable for at least 90
°
C (194
°
F).
Note:
Most
dwellings built before 1985 have supply wire rated to 60
°
C. Consult a
qualified electrician before installing.
A. This unit will not operate properly unless connected to a
"
gr
ounded" electrical circuit. Electrical shock, overheating, low
or no light output, and shortened l
amp
life can result if proper
gr
ounding is not done. Refer to step B for proper
gr
ounding if
hardwire. Optional three prong power cable (5) (not provided)
has proper
gr
ounding center contacts.
B. For hardwire installation: Using BX conduit connector (3)
(provided), remove one of two convenient plastic knockouts and
install BX connector firmly to the housing. Feed three solid
conductor wires (l 4-l 8A WG) (not provided) 3inches inside the
unit. Strip back 5/8" to expose bare wire before inserting into
wire connectors. Connect
gr
ound supply wire to unit yellow wire
with orange connector. Connect white ( common) supply wire to
white unit wire with orange connector. Connect black (hot)
supply wire to black unit wire with orange connector.
Do not
mix wires. Pull on each wire lead to make sure connections are
secure. Make certain no bare wires are exposed outside of wire connectors.
C. For power cord installation: Connect power cord (5) (not provided) to INPUT port keyed mated pair connection.
3. Unit mounting
Locate housing inside or above the cabinet then mark and drill 1/16" pilot holes for 2 captive screws (4) (provided) to secure to
cabinet. Note: Motion sensor can be hidden away without sacrificing detection range.
4. Installing cover
Align cover (I) to housing making certain four plastic tabs and slots are engaged before pressing to close.
5. Restore power at fuse or circuit breaker box.

LCX Series
Microwave Motion Sensor
Models: LCX-OCC
Technical Specifications:
Power supply: 100-130VAC
Suggested indoor mounting: wall, ceiling
HF system: 5.8GHz CW radar, ISM band
Distance range: 3-lOOft (radius) , adjustable
Duration: 10sec to 12min
Light sensitivity detection: 2-2000LUX
6. Microwave motion sensor specification.
Power frequency: S0/60Hz
Transmission power: <lOmW
Detection angle: 360
°
Rated load:500W Max. (Incandescent lamps)
300W Max. (LED or CFL lamps)
power consumption: 0.9W approx.
The sensor is an active motion detector, it emits high-frequency electro-magnetic wave (5.8GHz) and receives their echo. The
sensor detects the change in echo from even the slightest movement in its detection zone. A microprocessor then triggers the "
switch light ON'' command. Detection is possible through doors, panes of glass or thin walls.
Important: persons or objects moving towards the sensor are detected best l
NOTE: the high-frequency output of this sensor is <lOMw- that is just one 100th of the transmission power of a mobile
phone or the output of a microwave oven.
< 10mW
approx. 1000 mW
7. ON / OFF power switch
All lightings connected to motion sensor are operated by this rocker switch. The rocker switch has three settings
0, I
and
II
mode by depressing rocker to any desire positions.

OFF
all power to motion sensor and all functionality of the unit will be
disabled. Lights will be off in this setting.
b)

motion sensor (normal setting). Sensitivity adjustments and motion
detection is in full operational mode.
Continue to step 8 for testing
c)

any lightings that are connected to the unit. However, sensitivity
and motion detection will be disabled.
