Caséta Wireless Motion Sensor Advanced Features

Introduction

The Caséta Wireless motion sensor offers several advanced setup features designed to enhance performance and customization. For most installations, the default settings provide optimal functionality, and users may not need to utilize the advanced setup options. The sensor features three adjustable modes: Timeout, Activity, and Auto-On, which can be configured using buttons and LED indicators on the device itself.

1. Timeout

The Timeout feature controls how long the lights remain on after no motion is detected. The sensor will turn off the lights after the specified timeout period expires. Available settings are: 1, 5, 15, and 30 minutes. The default setting is 15 minutes.

2. Activity

The Activity setting adjusts the sensor's sensitivity to motion, allowing customization based on the expected level of activity in the room. There are three sensitivity levels:

• Low Activity: This is the most sensitive setting, recommended for most applications.
• Medium Activity: This setting is slightly less sensitive than Low Activity and is suitable for spaces with normal activity levels.
• High Activity: This is the least sensitive setting, designed for areas where only large motions, such as foot traffic, are expected.

Note: If the sensor is placed near sources of external noise, such as HVAC vents, it might incorrectly trigger lights or keep them on longer than necessary after vacancy. In such cases, adjusting the sensitivity to Medium or High Activity is recommended.

3. Auto-On (PD-OSENS model only)

The Auto-On functionality determines how the lights respond to initial occupancy. Two settings are available:

• Enabled: Lights automatically turn on upon detecting occupancy and turn off after vacancy. This is also known as occupancy mode.
• Disabled: Lights do not turn on automatically upon occupancy but will still turn off after vacancy. A 15-second grace period allows lights to turn back on if motion is detected during this time. This is also known as vacancy mode.

Recommendation: For applications in bedrooms or rooms where pets are present, it is suggested to set Auto-On to Disabled.

4. Off While Occupied

When the load control is manually turned OFF, this feature prevents the sensor from automatically turning the lights back ON while the room is still occupied. Once the room is vacated, the Auto-On feature will resume normal operation after the timeout period expires. This feature is only available when Auto-On is enabled.

5. Advanced Feature Set-Up (Optional)

Advanced feature setup is accessed using the buttons located on the back of the sensor. A specific procedure is outlined for selecting a 1-minute timeout.

Check Setting

Press and release the button beneath the desired mode. A brief LED illumination will indicate the current setting.

Change Setting (Standard Mode)

1. Press and hold the button for the desired mode until the corresponding LED begins flashing rapidly.
2. Press and release the button to cycle through the available settings for that mode.
3. To save the selected setting, press and hold the button until the LED turns solid.

1-Minute Timeout (For areas with brief activity, e.g., hallways, laundry rooms)

1. Press and hold the timeout button for 10 seconds until all three LEDs flash rapidly.
2. Press and hold the timeout button again until all three LEDs turn solid, confirming the 1-minute timeout has been saved.
