    • While the sensor is designed to withstand Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), it is always advisable to touch a grounded metal object before handling the sensor, particularly in an operating fixture.

WARNING
Risk of electrical shock. Disconnect power before service installation, or maintenance of the product
The WMZ10 is part of the Daintree Networked product portfolio, an open networked wireless controls solution to address evolving environmental regulations and transform spaces into intelligent environments for buildings of all sizes. The WMZ10 utilizes the Daintree Networked for dimmable light luminaire control, daylight harvesting, occupancy detection and non-camera based people counting. The WMZ10 is capable of advertising BLE beacons in the iBeacon format for enabling Indoor Positioning Solutions.
Save These Instructions
These instructions do not purport to cover all details or variations in components nor to provide for every possible contingency to be met in connection with installation, operation or maintenance. Should further information be desired or should particular problems arise which are not covered sufficiently for the purchaser’s purpose, the matter should be referred to GE Current, a Daintree company. GE Current, a Daintree company does not claim liability for any installation not performed according to a this guide or not by a qualified electrician.
CONTACT FACTORY for details and limitations when seeking to add this device to a luminaire being used with an emergency system other than Battery Backup.
WARNING
Risk of injury. Wear safety glasses and gloves during installation and servicing.
WARNING
Risk of fire. Follow all relevant IEC or UL instructions and local building codes.

Preparing Electrical Wiring

Electrical Requirements
In case of power supply miswiring, mains can be present on the device. Make sure all electricity is switch off before inspection.
Grounding Instructions
The grounding and bonding of the overall system shall be done in accordance with National Electric Code (NEC) Article 600 and local codes.
ESD Avoidance of Electrostatic Discharge
While the sensor is designed to withstand Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), it is always advisable to touch a grounded metal object before handling the sensor, particularly in an operating fixture.

IMPORTANT
To ensure the product warranty is valid, please ensure all installation instructions and environmental conditions for storage and operation are complied with. Only Current trained contractors can install the product.

FCC/ IC Compliance Statements

This device complies with the part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

  1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
  2. this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operations.

This device contains license-exempt transmitter(s)/receivers(s) that comply with Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada’s license-exempt RSS(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

  1. This device may not cause interference.
  2. This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operations of the device.

To satisfy FCC-ISED RF exposure requirements a separationdistance of 20 cm or more must be maintained between the antenna of this device and persons during operation.
Operation at closer than 20 cm is not permitted.

Installation/Mounting

  • WMZ10 Can be mounted into a 7/8” hole directly in a drywall ceiling, or drop ceiling tile.
  • Ribbed wings hold the sensor in place to the ceiling.
  • Recommended Mounting Height is 9’-11’

GE Current WMZ10 Controls Wireless Controls -Mounting

NOTE:

  • All cables are CMP (Plenum) rated.
  • Identification sticker labels are to be placed on or near luminaire and on a floor plan for mapping

Installation/Coverage

The sensor shall be installed and commissioned by a trained individual.

  • Please note, that the sensor shall be installed with the arrow (on lens) facing North.
  • It is important that the sensors are all oriented in the same direction to ensure optimal performance.
  Mounting Height Max. Coverage (sq. ft.)
9 64 (8 ft. x 8 ft. Square)
10 81 (9 ft. x 9 ft. Square)
11 100 (10 ft. x 10 ft. Square)

Installation/Spacing

In order to effectively count occupants in the room, the sensormust be spaced uniformly in a grid pattern.
If working in a room with drop ceilings, the grid must correspond with the ceiling tiles.
Each sensor has a 4’ max field of view on each side. Distances between sensors and IEEE numbers must be recorded.
GE Current WMZ10 Controls Wireless Controls Spacing

Installation/Orientation

  • Each WMZ10 sensor has an arrow embossed on the sensor’s face. This Arrow must be oriented in a known direction.
  • We recommend the arrow on each sensor in a room be pointed AWAY from the wall with the door or entryway.
