Coverage Patterns

Small Motion 360° (Model # nCM 9/nCM PDT 9)

• Ideal for small motion (e.g., hand movements).
• 360° conical pattern.
• Provides 12 ft (3.66 m) radial coverage (~500 ft²) at 9 ft (2.74 m) ceiling height.
• 8 to 15 ft (2.44 to 4.57 m) mounting heights provide 10 to 20 ft (3.05 to 6.10 m) radial coverage.
• Tested to NEMA WD 7-2011.

Diagrams showing side and top views of the coverage pattern are provided.

Large Motion 360° (Model # nCM 10/nCM PDT 10)

• Ideal for large motion (e.g., walking).
• 360° conical pattern.
• Provides ~24 ft (7.32 m) radial coverage (~2000 ft²) at 9 ft (2.74 m) ceiling height.
• 7 to 15 ft (2.13 to 4.57 m) mounting heights provide 16 to 36 ft (4.88 to 10.97 m) radial coverage.
• Detection range improves when walking across beams compared to into beams.
• Tested to NEMA WD 7-2011.

Diagrams showing side and top views of the coverage pattern are provided.

High Mount 360° (Model # nCM 6)

• Ideal for 15 to 45 ft (4.57 to 13.72 m) mounting heights.
• 15 to 20 ft (4.57 to 6.10 m) radial coverage overlaps areas lit by typical high bay fixtures.
• Excellent detection of large motion (e.g., walking) up to 35 ft (10.76 m).
• Excellent detection of extra large motion (e.g., forklifts) up to 45 ft (13.72 m).
• Tested to NEMA WD 7-2011.

Diagrams showing low and high views of the coverage pattern are provided.

Typical Applications Wiring

Typical Applications Mounting Instructions

These instructions are for mounting the sensor directly to a ceiling tile or sheetrock surface. The sensor's mounting holes align with standard round fixture or single gang handy boxes (screws not provided).

1. Using the included template, mark spots on the ceiling tile/sheetrock for the cable hole and mounting anchors/screws.
2. Drill a 1/2" hole through the ceiling surface at the template's indicated location.
3. Insert provided anchors into the ceiling surface at the template's indicated locations.
4. Remove the RJ-45 splitter from the sensor's attached CAT5e cable and thread the cable (and low voltage wires if -AR option is included) through the hole from underneath.
5. Mount the sensor to the anchors using two provided screws.
6. Attach the provided RJ45 splitter device (model CAT5 Y) above the ceiling to the cable from the sensor.
7. Interconnect CAT-5e cables to/from the rest of the nLight zone to the RJ45 splitter.
8. Once power is received via the CAT-5e connection, all devices in the zone will automatically begin functioning according to their defaults.
9. Install the decorative sensor lid by rotating it clockwise.
10. Refer to the included instruction card for default settings and directions on push-button programming.

Note: Recommended mounting is 4' or more away from HVAC vents. T568B pin/pair assignment is recommended for all CAT-5e cables. Sensor power is provided via a CAT-5e connection to an nLight power pack/supply, nLight enabled digital luminaire, or nLight Bridge.
