RH-250 Multi-way Wall Switch Convertible Occupancy Sensors are designed to replace standard single pole and multi-way (3-way, 4-way)
switches. They are ideal for any room with multiple entries and any other indoor space where vacancy sensor-based controls with manual ON/
OFF capability are desirable.
Like standard switches, you can press the ON/OFF button to turn the light or fan (controlled load) ON and OFF. Unlike standard switches, the
RH-250 automatically turns OFF the controlled load after the coverage area has been vacant for a period of time (Time Delay). If motion is
detected within 30 seconds after it automatically turns OFF, the RH-250 automatically turns the load back ON.
While the sensor is factory preset as a Vacancy Sensor with manual ON operation, it can be adjusted to work as an occupancy sensor that turns
the controlled load ON automatically upon detection of occupancy in the area.
The RH-250 can be wired with up to three additional RH-250s for multi-way Manual/Auto–ON/OFF of one or several loads (up to one load
connected to each RH-250). It can also be wired to up to four RH-253 single pole momentary wall switches for multi-way Manual-ON/OFF
Automatic-OFF control of one load.
Lighted Switch
To help you locate the RH-250 in a dark room, the amber LED illuminates the ON/OFF button while the controlled load is OFF. When the
controlled load is ON, the LED is OFF.

Operating Modes

For multi-way operation of two or more RH-250s, we recommend that the Operating Mode be the same in all sensors related to the same load.
This makes it easier to understand the multi-way control operation as well as trouble shooting. There are two operating modes to select from:
MODE 1 Vacancy sensor (Manual-ON/OFF, Auto-OFF): The user must press the ON/OFF button to turn the load ON. The RH-250 keeps the
load ON until no motion is detected by any of the related RH-250s for the time delay period. There is also a 30 second reset delay after the
automatic shut-off. If motion is detected during this time, the sensor turns the load back ON automatically. After the 30 second reset delay has
elapsed, the ON/OFF button must be pressed to turn ON the load.
MODE 2 Occupancy sensor (Auto-ON/OFF with manual control and reset to auto after 5 minutes of vacancy): The load turns ON and OFF
automatically based on occupancy detection. Once turned ON the RH-250 keeps the load ON until no motion is detected by any of the related
RH-250s for the time delay period. If the load is turned OFF manually, automatic-ON is re-enabled when no motion is detected for 5 minutes.
This prevents the load from being turned ON after it was deliberately turned OFF.
Time Delay
The time delay can be selected by the user during set up. It can be adjusted to any of these fixed values:15 seconds/5 minutes/15 minutes/30
minutes. We recommend that the time delay be the same in all sensors related to the same load. This makes it easier to understand the multi-
way control operation as well as trouble shooting. For additional information on how to adjust it, please read the SENSOR ADJUSTMENT &
PROGRAMMING section of this installation manual.
Light Level
When the operating mode is set for occupancy sensor, Mode 2 (Auto-ON) this feature prevents the sensor from automatically turning the lights
ON if there is already enough light in the area.
In a multi-way application, each sensor monitors the light level at it's location. If any sensor related to the load detects motion AND the measured
light level in that sensor's area is lower than it's Light Level setting, the load turns ON.
To adjust the light level, please read the SENSOR ADJUSTMENT & PROGRAMMING section of this installation manual.
