Overview
The Unison Paradigm
®
Occupancy Sensor is a ceiling mounted sensor that
utilizes passive infrared (PIR) technology, providing reliable vacancy and
occupancy detection for lighting control. Paradigm Occupancy Sensors
integrate with Paradigm lighting control systems, providing energy efficient
lighting control solutions.
Each sensor is available in neutral white or black finish. Lens masks are
provided to allow customized occupancy detection fields as required by each
installation.
Wire Specification
The Paradigm Occupancy Sensor utilizes LinkConnect to power the sensor and
to provide data to and from the connected Paradigm control system.
LinkConnect is topology-free and polarity independent. You can install your
data runs in any desired combination of bus, star, loop, and home-run. ETC
recommends using Belden 8471 (or equivalent) wire. The total combined
length of a LinkConnect wire run may not exceed 1,640 feet (500m), with a
maximum distance of 1,312 feet (400m) between any two devices.
All control wiring should be installed and terminated by a qualified installer
and should follow standard wiring installation practices and meet local codes.
Leave approximately 10 inches (254mm) of wiring in the junction box or tied
back in the ceiling to allow for wiring connections and future service needs.
Note:
ETC requires that all sensors be grounded by using a 14 AWG
(2.5mm
2
) ESD drain wire.
The Paradigm Occupancy Sensor provides 360 degree coverage
of the installed location and is available in three models:
