INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Disconnect or turn off power before installing or servicing the nPP16 EFP.
The nPP16 EFP includes a factory-installed fuse holder attached to the red wire. For ease of installation, pass the lead with the fuse holder through the KO or lock nut first, then pass the other leads through the KO or lock nut. Care should be taken not to nick the wires while threading through the knockout.
Mount through a ½” knockout in any junction box or luminaire. Secure with supplied lock nut.
Following the applicable wiring diagram below, connect wires to line voltage feed, neutral, and load. Relay and power supply must be connected to the same input circuit.
If applicable, connect low voltage violet and gray dimming wires to 0-10 VDC ballast/driver. Note: Wires have 600V rated insulation.
If green wire is present, connect to earth ground.
Interconnect unit (via RJ-45 ports) with other Light devices in lighting zone using CAT 5e cables.
Test all wiring for shorts prior to powering up the unit from the circuit breaker, and ensure that there are no loose or exposed wires that could short to other wires or components. Once wiring is confirmed, power up the unit from the circuit breaker.
Once power is received via CAT-5e connection, all devices in zone will automatically begin functioning together according to each device’s defaults.

T568B pin/pair assignment is recommended for all CAT-5e cables. For Supply Connections, use 14 AWG or larger wires rated for at least 90º C.

DO NOT REMOVE, BYPASS, OR TAMPER WITH FACTORY-INSTALLED FUSE HOLDER ATTACHED TO RED WIRE.

RJ45 LEDs are showing rapid flash for 1 second, followed by two blinks|

Confirm there is no debris or bent pins within the RJ45 connections on all devices in the daisy-chain, and that all connectors are
properly snapped into the RJ45 port
Use a CAT5 cable tester to confirm all cables are properly terminated
Confirm no CAT5 cables are kinked or held with cable ties that are overtightened

Restore Factory Defaults|

Press button 9 times
During LED flash back (3 individual flashes), press the button twice
LED will flash twice to confirm reset, press and hold button until LED flashed rapidly
Press button 9 times. LED will blink twice to show successful factory reset

Operational settings can be changed via the push-button sequence outlined below and right. Addtional settings can also be configured via Sensor view software.

A-LEVEL PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS

Please read all 3 steps before programming

Enter a specific programming function by pressing button the number of times as the desired function number from the A-Level Detailed Function Tables (e.g., press 23 times for function 23, Occupied Bright Level).
LED will flash back the selected function’s current setting (e.g., 11 times for 100%). To change setting, proceed to step 3 before flash back sequence repeats 3 times. To exit the current function or to change to a different function, wait for sequence to repeat 3 times then return to step 1.
Press button the number of times indicated in the particular function’s detailed table for the NEW desired setting. As confirmation of setting change, LED flashes back the NEW setting 3 times before exiting.

B-LEVEL PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS

Please read all 4 steps before programming

Enter B-Level programming mode by holding down button until LED flashes rapidly, release, hold down until rapid flash again, release, then immediately enter programming function as described in step 2. Enter a programming function by pressing button the number of times as the desired function number from the table labeled B-Level Functions (e.g., 12 times for function 12, Occupancy Tracking Channel).
LED will flash back the selected function’s current setting (e.g., 1 flash for channel 1). To change setting, proceed to step 4 before flash back sequence repeats 3 times. To exit the current function or to change to a different function, wait for sequence to repeat 3 times then return to step 1.
Press button the number of times indicated in the particular function’s detailed table for the NEW desired setting (e.g., press 2 times for channel 2). As confirmation of setting change, LED flashes back the NEW setting 3 times before exiting.

FUNCTION 18 DEFINITIONS

NORMAL
Operating Mode where occupancy sensors are capable of turning lights both on/of

AUTO TO OVERRIDE ON
Special Mode where lights are turned on initially by occupant detection but then left in the Override On state

MANUAL ON TO FULL AUTO
Special Mode that initially requires the occupant to manually turn on the lights, after which the sensor assumes full on/off control

MANUAL ON
Special Mode that always requires the occupant to manually turn the lights on, while having them turn off automatically by a sensor (default on models with SA and SA2 options)

PREDICTIVE OFF
When lights are switched off, this Special Mode determines whether occupants remained or left the room, so as to leave the lights in either the Override Off or Auto On state

MANUAL TO TIMED OVERRIDE ON
Special Mode where lights are initially turned on manually but remain in the Override On state for a pre-determined period (Timed Override Delay)

MANUAL TO NORMAL
Special Mode where lights are initially turned on manually but remain in the Normal State (enabling auto-dimming) for a pre-determined period (Timed Override Delay)
