1. Safety Information
WARNING: To avoid fire, shock, or death, turn off power at the circuit breaker or fuse box and test that power is off before wiring. Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or a person with electrical experience. Read all instructions before installation.
- Do not use with electronic ballasts.
- Ensure the total wattage of connected lights does not exceed the switch's maximum rating.
- For indoor use only.
2. Product Overview
The TOPGREENER TDOS5-KM-I is a Passive Infrared (PIR) motion sensor switch designed to automatically control lighting based on occupancy or vacancy in a room. It features adjustable settings for motion detection sensitivity and time delay, offering flexible control for various applications.
Key Features:
- PIR Motion Detection with 180° field of view.
- Occupancy (Auto ON, Auto OFF) and Vacancy (Manual ON, Auto OFF) modes.
- No neutral wire required.
- Operable without a ground wire connection (ground wire connection is recommended for safety).
- Compatible with dimmable LED light bulbs (minimum 15W load).
- Adjustable time delay (15 sec, 5 min, 10 min, 20 min, 30 min).
- Adjustable motion detection sensitivity (Range).
3. Installation
3.1 Pre-Installation Steps
- Turn Off Power: Locate the circuit breaker or fuse that supplies power to the switch location and turn it OFF. Verify power is off using a voltage tester.
- Remove Old Switch: Carefully remove the existing wall plate and switch from the wall box. Disconnect the wires from the old switch.
3.2 Wiring Instructions
The TDOS5-KM-I features a universal wiring design, allowing for interchangeable hot and load wires, simplifying installation. A neutral wire is not required. While operable without a ground wire, connecting the ground wire is highly recommended for safety.
- Identify Wires: In your wall box, identify the hot (line) wire and the load wire.
- Connect Wires: Connect the hot wire to one of the switch's terminals and the load wire to the other terminal. The switch's design allows these to be interchangeable.
- Ground Wire (Recommended): If a ground wire is present in your wall box, connect it to the green ground screw on the switch.
- Secure Wires: Ensure all wire connections are secure.
3.3 Compatibility and Important Notes
- This switch is ONLY compatible with dimmable LED light bulbs.
- It is INCOMPATIBLE with any lighting that includes electronic ballasts.
- The switch's circuit requires a minimum load of 15W.
3.4 Post-Installation
- Mount Switch: Carefully push the wired switch into the wall box and secure it with screws.
- Attach Wall Plate: Install the decorative wall plate.
- Restore Power: Turn the power back ON at the circuit breaker.
- Warm-Up Time: Allow 1-2 minutes for the device to warm up after installation before testing its functionality.
4. Operation
The TDOS5-KM-I offers two operational modes: Occupancy and Vacancy, along with adjustable settings for motion detection range and time delay.
4.1 Operating Modes
- Occupancy Mode (Auto ON, Auto OFF): In this mode, the lights will automatically turn ON when motion is detected and turn OFF after a set time delay when no motion is detected.
- Vacancy Mode (Manual ON, Auto OFF): In this mode, the lights must be manually turned ON by pressing the switch button. They will then automatically turn OFF after a set time delay when no motion is detected.
4.2 Changing Modes
To switch between Occupancy and Vacancy modes, locate the ON/OFF push button on the face of the device. Press and hold this button for 3 seconds. The mode will toggle between Occupancy and Vacancy.
4.3 Adjustable Settings
The switch features two adjustable dials located under the faceplate for customizing its performance:
- Range: This dial controls the motion detection sensitivity. Adjust it according to the daylight conditions and the size of the room to optimize detection. Settings typically range from 1 (lowest sensitivity) to 4 (highest sensitivity).
- Time: This dial determines how long the light will remain ON after the last detected motion. Available options include: 15 seconds (Test mode), 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes, and 30 minutes.
5. Maintenance
The TOPGREENER TDOS5-KM-I Motion Sensor Switch requires minimal maintenance. To ensure optimal performance and longevity:
- Cleaning: Periodically wipe the surface of the switch and sensor lens with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or excessive moisture, as these can damage the device.
- Obstructions: Ensure the sensor lens is not obstructed by furniture, decorations, or other objects that could block its field of view, affecting motion detection.
6. Troubleshooting
