DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
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
