1. Catalog Number RSEN W12 Total Lighting Control Line voltage Wall Switch Occupancy Sensor DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION The RSEN W 12 is a self contained motion sensing lighting control which replaces a conventional wall switch for energy savings and convenience Lights turn off automatically after a room is vacated Built in sensors produce low intensity inaudible sound and detect changes in sound waves caused by motion such as walking into the room reaching for a telephone turning ina chair The sensor does not respond to audible sound In the Automatic ON mode the lights turn on automatically when a person enters the room In the M anual ON mode lights are turned on by pressing the touchplate on the switch Modes can be changed by flipping the concealed switch under the touchplate In either mode lights will remain on as long as motion is detected in the room When no motion is detected the lights will turn off automatically after the pre set time delay Following this a grace period of approximately ten seconds allows lights to be turned on again by motion At any time lights may be turned off while the room is occupied by pressing the touchplate The RSEN W 12 is fully self resetting lights turned off manually in Automatic ON mode will stay off while the room remains occupied After the room is vacated and the preset time delay and grace period have elapsed the lights will remain off until turned on automatically2. LED goes off and stays off with no motion 6 If the sensor is activated by passers by in the hallway reduce the Entry Range setting 7 Set Time Delay to the desired setting for normal use If lights go out while the room is occupied increase setting slightly until an optimum interval is obtained Recom mended time delay is usually 6 8 minutes approximately 10 o clock People who remain very still for long periods may need a longer time delay 8 If preferred the RSEN W12 may be set to M anual ON for maximum energy savings by moving the M ode switch to the M position In this setting the occupant must push the touchplate to turn on lights upon entering the room Ww N Catalog Number RSEN W 12 Emergency Service or Support 888 852 2778 TROUBLESHOOTING Emergency Manual ON An override jumper is located underneath the touchplate This jumper should remain in place at all times except in the event of unit malfunction Remove the jumper to bypass the sensor and turn the lights on LED Will Not Go On Verify that the lighting circuit has power Verify that the sensor is properly adjusted Press the touchplate to turn on the lights manually If the LED does not light replace the RSEN W 12 Lights Will Not Turn ON If the lights will not turn on automatically after someone enters the room press the touchplate to see if lights will turn on If so the RSEN W 12 could be set to M anual ON mode Check
