WIRING TO GROUND (NO NEUTRAL)
WIRING TO NEUTRAL
•
Small motion (e.g. hand movements) detection up to 20 ft (6.10 m), ~625 ft

•
Large motion (e.g. walking) detection greater than 36 ft (10.97 m), ~2025 ft

•
Wall-to-wall PIR coverage
•
Units with -PDT (Passive Dual Technology) option
(also called Microphonics) provide overlapping
detection of human activity over the complete
PIR coverage area. Advanced filtering is utilized
to prevent non-occupant noises from keeping
the lights on.
