UNIT DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

The WA-300 is a pass i ve infra red wall switch that turns lighting ON and OFF

based on occupancy and ambient light levels. SmartSet™ te c h n o logy allows the

sensor to be insta l l ed without any adjustments and auto m a t i ca l ly adjusts it to

the usage patterns in the space. Alte r n a te o perating modes, sele c t ed by DIP

s w i t ch settings, can be combined to cre a t e the ideal custom co n t rol.

The WA-300 co n tains two relays. Dual buttons on the front of the WA-300 allow

the user to co n t rol one or two loads independently. Pre s sing a button to g g l e s

the sta te of the co r responding relay, turning ON the load if it is curre n t l y OFF or

OFF if it is curre n t ly ON. If no motion is dete c ted during the time delay that is in

e f f ect, the load will turn OFF.

The WA-300 also co n tains a light level sensor that, when enabled, affects the

s e c ondary re l a y. If adequate daylight is present, the sensor holds the seco n d a r y

load OFF until light levels drop, even when the co n t r o l l ed area is occ u p i e d .

U s e rs can override this function by pre s sing the Relay 2 ON/OFF button. The

load will then remain ON until the space is unoccupied.

Turning The Load ON

The relays are pro g ram med independently for either Auto ON or Manual ON. In

either mode, the load can be turned ON or OFF using the ON/OFF butto n .

Load turns ON and OFF auto m a t i ca l l y based on occ u p a n c y. If the

load is turned OFF manually, as long as the sensor continues to

d e tect occupancy the load stays OFF. The lights stay OFF for five

m i n u t es after the last occupancy detection, then the sensor reve r t s

to the Auto ON mode. This prevents the load from auto m a t i ca l ly

turning ON after it was delibera t e l y turned OFF. Pre s sing the butto n

to turn the lights ON returns the sensor to the Auto ON mode.

Time Delays

The WA-300 holds the load ON until no motion is dete c ted for the sele c ted time

d e l a y. Select the time delay using DIP switch settings. The sensor auto m a t i ca l l y

sets the time delay when SmartSet is enabled; with the fixed time delay

settings you select a time delay between 5 to 30 minutes.

Both relays use the same delay, unle s s a delayed disconnect is enabled fo r

relay 2 using the “20 +10” delay fe a t u re. This delayed disconnect fe a t u r e is

useful in applications where you want both loads to turn OFF auto m a t i c a l ly, but

want relay 2 to stay ON longer, such as when running an ex h a u st fan after the

lights have shut OFF.

Manual

O c cupants must turn ON the load by pre s sing the ON/OFF butto n .

The sensor keeps the load ON until no motion is dete c ted for the

s e l e c ted time delay. There is a 30 second reset delay. If motion is

d e te c ted during this time, the sensor turns the load back ON

a u t o m a t i ca l ly. After the reset delay time has elapsed, the ON/OFF

b u t t on must be pre s sed to turn ON the lo a d .

Walk-Through

Mode

The WA-300 turns the load OFF three minutes afte r

the area is initially occupied, if no motion is dete c te d

a f t er the first 30 seconds. If motion continues beyo n d

the first 30 seconds, the set time delay applies.

Alerts

The WA-300 can provide audible alerts as a warning befo r e the lights turn OFF.

Sensitivity Adjustment

The WA-300 co n sta n t ly monito rs the co n t ro l l ed environment and auto m a t i ca l l y

a d j u sts to avoid common ambient conditions that can cause false dete c t i o n s ,

w h i l e providing maximum cove rag e.

Fixed Time Delay DIP switch selections provide fixed time delays of 5,

10, 15, 20, 20 + 10, or 30 minute s .

SmartSet™ Time

Delays

R e co rds typical occupancy patterns. Using this histo r y

(which is co n sta n t ly updated), it chooses an optimal

time delay from 7 minutes (if the space is usually

va cant) up to 30 minutes (if the space gets heavy

usage). SmartSet behavior starts immediate l y, and is

refined co n t i n u a l ly as history is co l le c t e d .

To te st the sensor, a short time delay of 5 seconds is

set as the default (SmartSet/Te s t). Te s t Mode ca n ce l s

a u t o m a t i ca l l y after five minutes, or if a fixed time delay

is sele c ted . To re s tart the Te s t Mode, change the time

delay switch setting to any fixed amount and then

return it to the SmartSet/Te s t setting.

Test Mode Time

Delay

R e d u c es sensitivity by approx i m a te l y 50%. Useful in

cases where the sensor is detecting movement outside

of the desired area (also consider masking the le n s )

and where heat sources cause unnecssary activa t i o n .

20 + 10

(Delay Relay 2

Disconnect)

Both relays use the same Time Delay, except when the

delay is set for “20 + 10.” This enables a delaye d

d i s c onnect for relay 2. When the delayed disconnect is

e n a b led, relay 1 has a 20 minute time delay and relay 2

turns OFF 10 minutes after relay 1.

COVERAGE PATTERNS

The WA-300 will cover up to 300 sq. ft. (28m

). The typical re co m m e n d e d

cove rage for desktop activity is 150 sq. ft. (14m

). The sensor has a two - t i e r e d ,

m u l t i - cel l viewing Fresnel lens with 180 degree field of view.

Masking the lens

Opaque adhesive tape is supplied so that sections of the sensor’s view can be

m a s ked . This allows you to eliminate cove rage in unwanted areas. Since

masking re m o ves bands of cove rag e, remember to ta k e this into acco u n t

when tro u b leshooting cove rage pro b l e m s .

ADJUSTMENTS

Sensor Adjustment

The WA-300 is preset to SmartSet mode. It is designed for “Install and Fo r g e t ”

f u n c t i o n a l i t y. If you need to change the settings, fo l low the directions below.

All major adjustments to the WA-300 must be made with the wall plate re m ove d .

To acce s s the DIP switches, re m ove the button cap by squeezing the top sides of

the button ass e m b l y and pull it gently away from the unit.

When the adjustments are co m p l e t ed, re p l a ce the button cap by inserting its

hinges into the LED light bar and then squeeze the top of the button while

p r e ssing it into the unit. Reinstall the cover plate .

Light Level Adjustment

The light level setting only affects Relay 2. The light level can be set with the

overhead lights ON or OFF. To enable light level co n t r ol and set the threshold to

m a tch a particular ambient light level: 1) Put the sensor into TEST mode.

2) Pre s s and hold the Relay 2 b u t ton for 3 seconds, until you hear a beep.

3) Step away from the sensor. After 25 seconds another beep sounds, indica t i n g

that the threshold level is set. This threshold is re t ained, even if power is lo s t ,

until it is re - p r o g rammed in this manner. To disable light level co n t rol, pre s s and

hold the Relay 2 b u t t on for ten seco n d s, until a beep tone sounds.

Reset to Default

P re s s and hold the Relay 1 b u t t o n for ten seconds to reset the WA-300 to fa c t o r y

settings. This resets the sensor occupancy history and disables light level co n t ro l

(the brighte s t ambient light will not hold the light OFF).

Lights do not turn OFF

1 . T h e r e can be up to a 30 minute time delay after the last motion is

d e te c ted. To verify proper operation, set DIP switch 1 to ON, then re s e t

s w i t ches 1, 2, and 3 to OFF to start Te s t Mode. Move out of view of the

s e n s o r. The lights should turn OFF in approx i m a te l y 5 seco n d s .

2 . Verify that the sensor is mounted at le a s t six feet (2 mete rs) away fro m

any heating/ventilating/air conditioning dev i ce that may cause fa l s e

d e tection. Verify that there is no significant heat source (e.g., high watta g e

light bulb) mounted near the sensor.

3 . If the lights still do not turn OFF, call 800.879.8585 for te c h n i c al support.

Sensing motion outside desired areas

1 . S e l ect Sensitivity – Low (DIP switch 8 = ON) if nece s s a r y.

2 . Mask the sensor’s lens, using the opaque tape supplied.

No response to repeated button presses

Rapid pre s sing of the ON/OFF button causes a delay in proper functioning of

the sensor. If the sensor does not respond to pre s sing the ON/OFF button, wait

10-15 seconds, then pre s s the button o n c e a g a i n .
