MAGNUM FIRST M9-ML2 Motion Lux Sensor

Description
The Magnum Innovations Motion and Lux sensor (Mx-ML2) is a wireless, self powered, passive infrared sensor that ensures reliable detection of occupant presence. The Mx-ML2 is ideally suited for occupancy based lighting control and also provides for indoor daylight harvesting functionality, with a light range of 0-1020lx. When paired with a relay (Mx-USR-L1) and a wireless rocker switch (Mx-ESRP), the sensor creates an out of the box, cost effective, lighting control system. When combined with an Magnum gateway (Mx-EBOX), the Mx-ML2 can be integrated into an existing BACnet-compatible building automation system.

Operation
Built in solar cells draw and store energy from available ambient light to power the device and keep it operational during periods of darkness. The device must be placed at the location where sensing is required and this location is dependent on individual application (refer to Sensor Placement Tips below). An optional battery back up is available for locations with low or no ambient light. The Mx-ML2 must be paired with a receiver (refer to Compatible Devices section). The device can be paired manually to compatible devices by pressing the LRN button while following the pairing instructions for the receiver. For more sophisticated configuration, please refer to the MES AirConfig tool available at https://www.dropbox.com/s/mor2z812401nhti/airConfig_Setup.exe?dl=0 The sensor can be mounted using screws or simply placed in selected location with double stick tape. It is recommended that the pairing of this device be done prior to installing the ceiling sensor.

User Instructions

UPON RECEIVING ML2 FOLLOW STEPS BELOW..

Insert provided battery into the ML2
To ensure proper operation of the device, press and release the learn button and you should see the LED flash once
Repeat Step 2 twice for a total of 3 times
If the LED does not flash, remove the battery and wait 5 seconds. Then reinstall the battery and repeat Step 2
The device is now ready for pairing if so desired

FOR BATTERY FREE OPERATION, place the device under bright light for 8 hours to attain a full charge before operating

PAIRING:

NOTE: It is recommended that pairing of device be done prior to installing the ceiling sensor
NOTE: Use a nonmetallic pin when pressing the Learn Button

Sensor Placement Tips:

Do not mount sensor near obstacles that could potentially block sensor’s line of sight.
Keep sensors 10-15ft away from heating vents and radiators. If a sensor detects a rapid change in heat, it could inaccurately detect occupancy.
If mounting on a wall or in a corner (anywhere other than ceiling) aim sensor towards the likely entry point.
If sensor is to be used to control lights based on occupancy and perform daylighting controls, and there is a question related to appropriate placement, please refer to the guidance herein or call tech support at 330.656.9365.

NOTE: remember this device is charged and operates using the light in the room, if there are several mounting location choices, choose the brightest option.

Troubleshooting

Verify the LED flashes when the LRN button is pressed and released
If the LED light does not blink, check to see if the device is equipped with a back up battery
If the device has no back up battery, place the sensor under light, allowing it to charge
If the LED still does not flash after the LRN button is pressed and released, the sensor could be defective.
If the device includes a back up battery, then the battery might need to be replaced.
