DESCRIPTION
The YT-C2 Series sensor switch is designed to replace a standard light or fan switch. This device
can automatically turn lights or a fan on and off by detecting motion from a heat-emitting source
such as a person entering an area. The lights or fan will stay on until no motion is detected and
the time delay has expired. This product offers optimal coverage for random traffc areas such
as hallways, stairways, or large spaces with multiple entries. Use indoors only.
TOOLS NEEDED
You will need an insulated fathead screwdriver, wire strippers, and a small athead screwdriver
to adjust the sensor dials.

COVERAGE AREA
● The sensor must have a clear and unobstructed view of the area. If an object blocks the
sensor's lens, the sensor may not detect motion and may turn the lights or fan off even if
someone is in the area. Windows, glass doors, and other transparent barriers will
obstruct the sensor's view and prevent motion detection.
● The coverage area data is measured under the best temperature condition (20 to 25˚ C),
and a higher or lower temperature may not leadto an ideal coverage area (see fgures 1 and 2).

BEFORE INSTALLATION
WARNING:
● Before installing the YT-C2 Series sensor switch,disconnect power to the
wall switch box by turning off the circuit breaker or removing the fuse for the
circuit.
● For supply connections use 18AWG or larger wires suitable for at least 75°C
● Tightly secure the ground wire to ensure that thesensor functions properly.
AVERTISSEMENT:
● avant d'installer l'interrupteur du capteur de la série YT-C2, débranchez
l'alimentation du boîtier d'interrupteur mural en éteignant le disjoncteur ou
en retirant le fusible du circuit.
● Pour les connexions d'alimentation,
à au moins 75 ° C

IMPORTANT:
A neutral wire is required for the switch towork properly. If the existing wiring does not match
thedescription for a two-pole circuit, or if you do not have aneutral wire, consult a qualifed
(side view)
electrician.

consultez un électricien qualifé.)
● These instructions describe only the 3-way circuit applications.
● For information about other applications,
● consult technical support.
1. Prepare the switch box
● After the power is turned OFF at the circuit breaker box,remove the existing wall plate and
mounting screws. Pull the old switch out from the wall box.
2. Identify the type of circuit
● You may connect the YT-C2 to a single pole or multi-way circuit. If you are unable to clearly
identify some or all of the wires mentioned in this manual, you should consult with a qualifed
electrician.
● In a 3-way circuit (see Fig. 4), two traveler wires connect to both switches. Another wire provides
power from the circuit box to one of the switches. A wire connects from one switch to the load.
A ground wire may also be connected to a ground terminal on the old switches. A neutral wire
should also be present in both wall boxes.
