Installation Environment
Occupancy/Vacancy Sensors are intended for installation to a finished ceiling
surface, ceiling tile mounted, attached to a round fixture junction box or single-
gang RACO switch box.
The sensor operates in ambient temperatures of -10°C to 70°C, non-
condensing humidity.
ETC recommends paying special attention to the installation environment:
• The sensor must have an unobstructed view of the room. Do not mount
behind or near tall cabinets, shelves, hanging light fixtures, etc.
• Do not install the sensor within eight feet from an HVAC airflow duct/vent.
• Install the sensor where it cannot easily sense movement in areas outside
of the intended space, such as hallways, glass partitions, or adjacent rooms.
If the installation location cannot avoid these conditions, portions of the lens
can be masked to block the sensor view of these undesired areas.

Parts and Supplies
The following parts and supplies are included with the Occupancy/Vacancy
Sensor ordered:
N o t e :
- When using Category5 (or equivalent) cable on the
EchoConnect communication bus, please note the following:
- Cat5 wiring must be terminated using EchoConnect Cat5
Termination Kit and must be installed using a bus topology. Refer
to the installation guide that is provided with the Cat5 Termination
Kit (7186A1207) for information to terminate Cat5 wiring.
- Not all topologies are supported using Cat5; careful planning is
required to ensure the proper termination kits are available and
the wire is pulled appropriately.
• Soft ceiling tile adaptor
• 2 each screws, 6-32 x 3/4”
and 1 3/4”
• EchoConnect & ESD ground
wire pigtails
• 3 lens masks
N o t e :
- Follow all local code requirements for terminating wire.
- Use appropriately sized wire nuts (not provided) to secure each
termination.
N o t e :
The EchoConnect pigtail is only required when the sensor is
installed in series with other stations or sensors. If you are not
continuing the data run, direct termination on the control board is
recommended.
