DAYLiGHt sensor pLAceMent
The Daylight sensor must be placed to see only daylight with no contribution from artificial light sources. The sensor typically mounts on the
ceiling between the window and the row of fixtures closest to the window. For skylight applications, the sensor mounts in the lightwell. The
sensor is aimed toward the daylight. A light meter is required for light level measurements at the task areas (see Figure 3).
