Ceiling Mounted Passive Infrared (PIR) Occupancy Sensors
360° – SLSCPS1001 and SLSCPS501
Retain for Future Use
INTRODUCTION
Ceiling Mounted Occupancy Sensors are ideal for use in business and office settings to accurately
detect occupancy and automatically control lighting. The ceiling mount design of these low profile
sensors allows the greatest possible motion sensitivity. An adjustment panel is conveniently located on
the front of the sensor, providing ready access to setting controls after the sensor is installed.

This section contains important safety precautions that must be followed before attempting to install or
maintain electrical equipment. Carefully read and follow the safety precautions below.
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH
Apply appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow safe electrical work practices.
See NFPA 70E.
This equipment must be installed and serviced by qualified electrical personnel.
Turn off all electrical power supplying this equipment before working on or inside the equipment.
Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm that power is off.
Replace all devices, doors, and covers before turning on power to this equipment.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH
Do not connect line voltage to the wiring leads of the sensor.
Failure to follow this instruction can result in personal injury or equipment or property
damage.
INSTALLING THE SENSOR
The sensor mounts directly to ceilings or ceiling junction boxes. The sensor can be mounted to a variety
of ceiling surfaces, such as acoustical tile, drywall, plywood, etc. There are three options for mounting
the sensor are described below. Choose the method for your application and follow the steps for
mounting the sensor.
NOTE: Install the sensor at least five feet away from sources of air flow, such as HVAC vents, ceiling
fans, etc.
Mounting with Supplied Mounting Post
KEY:
A. Mounting post
B. Lock nut
C. Washer
D. Ceiling tile
1. Turn off all electrical power supplying this equipment before working on or inside the equipment.
Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm that power is off.
2. Drill a 7/8-in. (22mm) dia. hole at the mounting location.
NOTE: For acoustical tile, you can use the threaded mounting post to drill a mounting hole. Press
the cutter end of the mounting post firmly against the tile, and twist the post back and forth.
3. Feed sensor wiring through the mounting post, then twist and lock the mounting post to the back of
the sensor.
4. Insert the mounting post into the hole drilled in step 2. Secure the sensor assembly from the top of
the ceiling tile using the supplied washer and lock nut.
5. Wire the sensor according to the wiring diagram; follow all applicable national and local electrical
codes.

HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH
Do not connect line voltage to the wiring leads of the sensor.
Failure to follow this instruction can result in personal injury or equipment or property
damage.
Figure 4: Wiring Diagram
OPERATING THE SENSOR
1. Turn on the circuit breaker and any wall switches that may be supplying power to the sensor's
power pack.
2. Whenever motion is detected, the LED(s) on the sensor housing will flash on for approximately 0.5
seconds, and the lights will turn or remain on.
NOTE: When first installed, the sensor may have to warm up for a few minutes before it is fully
operational.
3. Set the Time Delay to the Test setting of 15 seconds.
4. Vacate the room until the lights turn off.
5. Re-enter the room. Lights should turn on immediately. If lights do not turn on immediately, verify
correct sensor wiring.
6. Once the sensor is operational, adjust the settings.

ADJUSTING THE SENSOR
Follow the guidelines and refer to the diagrams below to properly adjust the sensor or switches lenses
for proper operation.
Accessing the Sensitivity Adjustment Compartment
The adjustment panel is located on the front of the sensor housing. To access the adjustment controls,
gently pry off the cover with a small, flathead screwdriver.
Figure 5: Adjustment Panel
KEY:
A. Sensitivity Adjustment
B. Mode Switch
C. Photocell Adjustment
D. DIP switches
Modes and Sensitivity
Mode: Determines when lights are turned on or will remain on.
Table 4: Sensitivity Modes
Mode
Description
A* Automatic mode. Normal, default setting. Lights will turn on or remain on only when the sensor detects motion.
M* Manual override ON mode. Lights are always on.
*A=Automatic/M=Manual
Sensitivity: Determines the amount of movement required to trigger the sensor and the distance from
which movement can be detected.
Rotate the sensitivity dial to enter a value (Clockwise = increase, Counterclockwise = decrease). The
default sensitivity setting is approximately 100%.
PIR: 10% – 100% of max.
Sensitivity is adjustable, from 10% to 100% of maximum sensitivity to increase or decrease the distance
and movement required to trigger the sensor.
Photocell: Sets the level above which ambient light will not trigger the sensor. The ambient light level
can be set from 0.5–250 foot-candles. Turn the dial to the desired setting: from 0.5 foot-candles (fully
counterclockwise) to 250 foot-candles (fully clockwise). The default setting is 250 foot-candles. This
setting also disables the photocell, i.e., ambient light will not inhibit sensor operation.

TIME DELAY SETTINGS
Time Delay: A set of four DIP switches determines how long lights will stay on after motion is no longer
detected. Settings range from 15 seconds to 30 minutes. The default setting is 18 minutes. The
possible settings are shown in the "Time Delay Settings" table.

the time delay to an optimal setting. – = Off
Replace the adjustment access cover by gently snapping it in place.
MASKING THE PIR LENS
To help prevent unwanted detection, such as people moving in adjacent areas, partially mask the
sensor's PIR lens with the supplied self-adhesive masking strips (included). The strips can be applied to
mask unwanted detection areas on the sensor's PIR lens.
