Cooper 6109 - Motion Sensing Wall Switch Manual

INTRODUCTION

The 6109 Motion Sensing Wall Switch dectects motion to turn on lights for an adjustable amount of time. A built-in photo cell can be set to keep lights off when the lights aren't needed. The unit has excellent sensitivity and a wide 180⁰ detection range. It can be used with incandescent lighting as well as rapid start fluorescent lighting. Two LEDs allow for easy mode identification. (Not for use with electronic ballasts)
Installation is as easy as replacing a wall switch. However, some codes require installation by a qualified electrician.

Features include:

• 180⁰ motion detection angle
• Adjustable on-time from 12 sec. to 30 min.
• Adjustable photocell
• Works with incandescent and rapid start fluorescent lighting (Notfor use with electronic ballasts)
• Works with motors up to 1/6 hp.
• Push button selectable ON AND AUTO modes.

Included are:

• The sensor switch
• Cover plate
• 3 wire connectors
• 2 large screws
• 2 small screws.

INSTALLATION

For indoor use only.

SELECT A LOCATION

NEW APPLICATION

Choose a location where the motion sensor has a clear view of the entire area where occupant motion may occur.

RETROFIT APPLICATION

Motion sensing switch will replace existing wall switch. Use only where the existing switch location provides a clear view of the occupied area.

GENERAL APPLICATION INFORMATION

The detector is more sensitive to motion across the front of the sensor than to motion towards the sensor.
The detector senses heat in motion and possible heat sources that change temperature quickly. Therefore, to avoid false triggering, avoid placing the sensor where it will be aimed at air conditioners, heaters, and other sources of heat or cold.

INSTALLING THE DEVICE

Turn power off at the circuit breaker before wiring.

• Remove the decorative coverplate (secured by two decorative screws).
• Remove Control Cover (pinch the Control Cover at the indicated points and pull).
  
• Remove the existing switch (if this is a retrofit application).
• Connect the detector as shown in the diagram. Before installing the detector into the box, make sure there is no wire exposed at the connection.
  
• Do not connect to neutral wire or damage to unit willoccur.

TYPICAL INSTALLATION

• Mount the detector into the wall box with the mounting screws.
• For test purposes, use a small screwdriver to turn the time control fully counter-clockwise and the light control fully clockwise. Turn the power back on at the circuit breaker.
• Press MODE selection push button until the AUTO LED is on. Lamp will be on for 12 seconds. Allow twominutes for the unit to warm up. If motion is detected, the lights will turn on. The lights will turn off 12 seconds after motion is no longer detected.

ADJUSTMENTS

TIME

The length of time that the lights stay on is adjustable from 12 seconds to 30 minutes.

• Use a small screw driver to set the time by using the diagram below as a guide.
  

Note: Adjustment screws found under (off-autoon) face plate.

LIGHT LEVEL

The sensor can be prevented from turning on lights when there is already enough light in the room. Use a small screw driver to set the light level using this diagram as a guide. In the fully clockwise position, the sensor turns on lights even in full daylight. In the fully counter-clockwise poition, the sensor only turns on lights when the surrounding light level is very low.

To adjust the photocell:

• When the light in the room is at the level you want the lights to turn on, set the switch to the AUTO position.
• Put the TIME control to the 12 sec. (fully counter-clockwise) position.
• Put the LIGHT control to the minimum dark (fully counter-clockwise) position.
• Wait for the lights to turn off.
• Turn the LIGHT adjustment clockwise in very small steps and wait 2 seconds before moving your hand in front of the sensor.
  Repeat until the lights controlled by the sensor come on. The light will now come on when the light level is at or below the present level and motion is detected.

Complete Installation

• Replace control panel cover and install the decorative wall plate. In installations where the Cooper motion sensor switch is combined with other switches or outlets on an expanded box, a combination wall plate will need to be purchased. Various combination wall plates are available at Home Centers and Electrical Supply Stores.
• Press the push button a couple of times to make sure it operates freely.

USE

MODE Selection Switch
Pressing the pushbutton selects one of three modes of operation: ON, OFF, AUTO

ON: Lights stay on continuosly. The ON led is lit.
OFF: Lights stay off. The AUTO led and the ON led are not lit.
AUTO: Lights come on for time set when motion is detected and the level is below the set level. The AUTO led is on and the ON led is off.

*When in the OFF mode, the circuit is still alive. Turn off circuit breaker before re-lamping.
