ETC Installation Guide
Paradigm Dual Tech Occupancy Sensor
Overview
The Dual Tech Ceiling-Mount Occupancy Sensor uses passive infrared
(PIR) and acoustic detection to provide reliable occupancy and vacancy
sensing for lighting control. The ceiling-mount sensor offers 360 degree
coverage with optimized lens options to accommodate small spaces,
large spaces, and spaces with high ceilings.
Field-installed lens masks are provided to allow customized occupancy
detection fields for each sensor lens type.
Configuration
The Paradigm Processor (P-ACP) to which this Ceiling-Mount Occupancy
Sensor is connected must learn, or be told, the hardware address (also
known as the neuron ID). You can manually enter this ID (as labeled on
the device) into the configuration using LightDesigner software, or you
can use the "Connect Device" menu on the connected P-ACP to identify
the ID. See the Paradigm Processor Configuration Manual ; specifically the
section on Arch Setup Menu > Station Connections, or reference the
LightDesigner online help system for related information to associate and
connect the device to the Paradigm control system.
Prepare for Installation
Ceiling-mount sensors are intended for installation to a finished ceiling
surface, soft ceiling tile mounted, or attached to a round or octagonal
fixture junction box.

    The Dual Tech Occupancy Sensor connects to the LinkConnect communication bus. LinkConnect is a bi-directional protocol that uses one pair of wires (data+ and data-) for both data and power. ETC recommends using Belden 8471 Class 2 wire (or approved equal – see the ETC cable cross database etcconnect.com/Support/Cable-Cross-Database...
  • Page 4 ETC Installation Guide Ceiling-Mount Occupancy Sensor Junction Box or Surface Installation 1. Pull the Belden 8471 (or equivalent) and one 2.5 mm (14 AWG) ground wire to the mounting location (junction box or finished surface) and strip each wire 11 mm (0.4 in). 2. Temporarily remove the sensor cover to gain access to the configuration switches and mounting access holes.

    LEDs illuminate for one minute for calibration and warm-up. Binding the Sensor After the sensor powers up, it will bind to the Paradigm Processor (P-ACP) if the system was pre-configured. The sensor receives all configuration properties from the connected P-ACP after binding. Alternatively, if the sensor doesn’t automatically bind to the P-ACP, it can be identified by...
