LENS, MASKING AND COVERAGE

PASSIVE INFRARED SENSING IN WAREHOUSES

Warehouses can have ambient temperature variations that may affect sensor detection and coverage areas. High temperatures atthe covered area (above 80°F) reduce the detection zone of thesensor. Consider adding more sensors if the ambient temperature are expected to be high. Additionally, high floor level temperaturemay require larger movement for detection. In some cases,sensorsmounted above 40’ may only detect large heat signatures such as forklift trucks.

INSTALLATION & MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Determine the mounting location appropriate to the features of the sensor and the coverage area.

  2. Avoid placing the sensor where the edge of the fixture, shelving or other obstructions may block the sensor’s line of sight. Mount the sensor below the edge of the fixture and away from the lamps so that the heat from the lamps does not affect the sensor.

  3. If using the hold-off daylighting light level feature, avoidmounting in location where adjacent fixtures contribute to thephotocell measurement.

  4. If using snap-in mounting hardware, select washers toaccommodate fixture wall thicknesses according to the chartbelow.

  5. Assemble any necessary mounting accessories and attach them to the sensor, making sure that the flying leads from the powermodule are accessible.

  6. Connect the line voltage and load wires to the sensor leads as shown in the Wiring Diagram (see Figure 4) .• Do not allow bare wire to show.
    • Make sure all connections are secure.

  7. Restore power from the circuit breaker.

ADJUSTABLE CONTROL PARAMETERS

SETTING TIME DELAY

Trimpot

  1. Adjust the trimpot to the desired time delay (hard stop settings:
    5, 10, 15, 20, 30 minutes; default 15 minutes).

WSREM Remote

  1. Aim the remote at the IR receiver on the sensor
  2. Select “Adjust Time Delay”
  3. Choose from the range of 1 min – 30 mins with 1 minute increments
  4. Select “Send”; remote displays “Settings Received”

SETTING MOTION DETECTION SENSITIVITY

(factory default setting is ideal for most applications)

Trimpot

  1. Hold push button for approx. 3 seconds to enter test mode
  2. Adjust the Time Delay trimpot to the hard stop setting for thedesired sensitivity (options: 5 or 10 min = Low; 15 or 20 min =Med; 30 min = Max; default Max)
  3. Hold push button for approx. 3 seconds to exit test mode
  4. Return Time Delay to desired setting

WSREM Remote

  1. Aim the remote at the IR receiver on the sensor
  2. Select “New Settings” and “Sensitivity”
  3. Choose from the options of Low, Med or Max
  4.  Select “Send”; remote displays “Settings Received”
SETTING LIGHT LEVEL HOLD-OFF

Adjust during daylight hours when ambient light is at the desired level.

Trimpot
Adjust the trimpot on the sensor housing to desired photocell setting (analog wheel with hashmarks: 1-300fc; default 300fc).

WSREM Remote

  1. Aim the remote at the IR receiver on the sensor
  2. Select “Adjust Photocell Setting”
  3. Choose from the range of 1fc – 300fc with 1 footcandleincrements.
  4. Select “Send”; remote displays “Settings Received”The light level values referenced are approximate and reference 4000K CCT. Variations in color temperature may affect the actual levels the sensor sees. It is recommended that light level hold offbe set up in the morning for best results.

Notes: Any adjustments made will override any previous settings whether manually made on the sensor or through the WSREM commission tool. Adjusting Time Delay does not affect Sensitivity and vice versa.

PUSH BUTTON FUNCTIONS

The following functions are available via the Push Button.

Manual Mode: To toggle the unit in or out of Manual Mode,quickly press the Push Button to toggle the load ON or OFF. When the load is turned ON manually, it will remain ON as longas motion is detected and the time delay has not expired. If theload is turned
OFF manually, the sensor holds the load OFF for as long as motion is detected and then for an additional 5 minutes of no motion detection. The next time the sensor detects occupancy, and the ambient light is lower than the established light level, the sensor automatically turns ON the load.

Test Mode: To place the unit in a 10 minute Test Mode, press the Push Button for about 3 seconds, or enable the Test Mode with the WSREM. The LED will flash once confirming you are in Test Mode. To exit Test Mode, press and hold the Push Button for 3 seconds. Walk-test the unit to ensure proper detection.

Service Mode: To toggle the unit in or out of Service Mode, press and hold the Push Button for about 6 seconds. The LED will flash twice confirming you are in or out of Service Mode. In Service Mode, the LED and load will always be ON.

Power Up On Mode: Press and hold the Push Button for about 9 seconds to enable Power Up ON Mode. The LED will flash three times confirming Power Up ON is enabled. In this mode, the sensor will turn the connected loads ON upon restoration of power.

Power Up Off Mode: Press and hold the Push Button for about 12 seconds to enable Power Up OFF Mode. The LED will flash four times confirming Power Up OFF is enabled. In this mode, the sensor will keep the connected loads OFF upon restoration of power. The sensor is set to this mode by default.

Factory Default: To manually return the unit to factory default settings, press and hold the Push Button for about 15 seconds. This will return all settings to factory default with the exception of time delay and light level, which will be set to the current trimpot settings. When using the WSREM remote to return to factory default, all settings will be returned to the original factory settings regardless of current trimpot positions.

The LED will remain solid ON confirming it has been reset to the factory default.

Cancel: To prevent any changes from being made, hold the push button for about 18 seconds. For example, if resetting to factory default (or any other setting) is not desired then keep holding until you reach 18 or more seconds. The LED will turn off after 18 seconds to indicate there were no changes made.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES AVAILABLE ON PIR SENSOR

Use the WSREM handheld configuration tool to disable or enable following modes:

Burn-In Mode: When Burn-In Mode is invoked the output will turn ON for 100 hours continuously. However, the Push Button or remote can be used to turn the load OFF, and the sensor will exit Burn-In Mode. Default setting is Disabled.

Walk-Through Mode: In this mode, the load will turn off after a 3 minute period following an initial occupancy event if there is no motion detected after the first 30 seconds. If occupancy continues beyond the first 30 seconds, the established time delay applies. Default setting is Disabled.

Visual Alert: When enabled, Visual Alert turns the load OFF for 1 second to warn any occupants of impending shutoff 1 minute before the time delay countdown expires. Default setting is Disabled.

Occupancy mode: When Occupancy mode is disabled, the LED will always beon; both motion detection and light level functionality are disabled, and only the Push Button or remote can toggle the load ON and OFF. The default setting for Service mode is Enabled.
