Overview

The VNLW-P-1001-MV-N uses Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor technology to monitor a room for occupancy and deliver maximum energy savings. In Automatic On Mode, the lights turn ON when a person enters the room. In Manual On Mode, the lights are turned ON by pressing the universally recognized light icon push button. The unit ships in Manual ON Mode. The night light activates when the sensor turns the lights OFF. The sensor includes self-adaptive technology that continuously self-adjusts sensitivity and time delay in real-time, maximizing the potential energy savings that are available in the particular application. PIR sensors are considered line-of-sight sensors, meaning that the sensor must be able to have a direct line-of-sight to the person making the motion.
