Page 4: Installation Considerations
N F R A R E D E N S O R Installation Considerations The WS100R is a Decora-style module and is designed to use standard Decora-style cover plates and mounting hardware. Decora cover plates (up to 6-gang) with color-matched plate screws are available from your Niles dealer. - Page 5 110 volt devices, provided a “low-voltage partition” is used between the devices. We do not recommend this. The cable connected to the WS100R can act as an “antenna” for elec- trical noise. Locating the WS100R cable too close to a light dimmer or switch may interfere with the WS100R.

(Figure 5) 5. Use the shorter plate screws to fasten the Decora cover plate to the WS100R. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN THE PLATE SCREWS OR YOU MAY DAMAGE THE COVER PLATE. Line up all the screws in the same direction for a finished look. - Page 11 A L L O U N T N F R A R E D E N S O R Figure 5 Installing the Connector NOTE: Certain “old work” or “retro-fit” boxes, such as the Carlon B225R, have a plastic “lip” which interferes with the Decora plate screws.

The led should light solid green when status is detected. - Page 14 A L L Eliminating optical feedback In some installations, two conditions combine to optical feedback loop. Symptoms can include: poor range, intermittent operation or no operation. The conditions which sometimes combine to create a feed- back loop are: 1. Both a sensor and a flasher are located within the same room.
- Page 15 “flickers”, and the WS100R functions normally, there is no cause for concern. If the WS100R does not work, and the LED does not light at all: Test the remote control(s) by operating the A/V equipment directly. Replace the batteries if needed. Double check the cable connections on all WS100R’s Main System...
- Page 16 A L L Move the sensor or the sensor cable away from the EMI source or move the source of the EMI away from the sensor or the cable. 2. Connect the Sensor’s GND terminal to true earth ground (if this isn’t feasible use the main system unit’s GND terminal).
