The 6109 Motion Sensing Wall Switch dectects motion to turn on
lights for an adjustable amount of time. A built-in photo cell can be
set to keep lights off when the lights aren't needed. The unit has
excellent sensitivity and a wide 1800 detection range. It can be used
with incandescent lighting as well as rapid start fluorescent lighting.

Complete Installation
• Replace control panel cover and install the decorative wall plate. In installations where the Cooper motion
sensor switch is combined with other switches or outlets on an expanded box, a combination wall plate will
need to be purchased. Various combination wall plates are available at Home Centers and Electrical Supply
Stores.

Choose a location where the motion sensor has a clear view of
the entire area where occupant motion may occur.

RETROFIT APPLICATION

• Mount the detector into the wall box with the mounting screws.
Motion sensing switch will replace existing wall switch. Use only
where the existing switch location provides a clear view of the
occupied area.
• For test purposes, use a small screwdriver to turn the time control fully counter-clockwise
and the light control fully clockwise. Turn the power back on at the circuit breaker.
• Press MODE selection push button until the AUTO LED is on. Lamp will be on for 12 seconds. Allow two
minutes for the unit to warm up. If motion is detected, the lights will turn on. The lights will turn off 12 sec-
onds after motion is no longer detected.
0'
Pressing the pushbutton selects one of three modes of operation: ON, OFF, AUTO
Typical Plan View of Coverage
ON: Lights stay on continuously. The ON led is lit.
GENERAL APPLICATION INFORMATION
The detector is more sensitive to motion across the front of the sensor than to motion towards the sensor.
OFF: Lights stay off. The AUTO led and the ON led are not lit.
AUTO: Lights come on for time set when motion is detected and the light level is below the set level.
The AUTO led is on and the ON led is off.
The detector senses heat in motion and possible heat sources that change temperature quickly. Therefore, to
avoid false triggering, avoid placing the sensor where it will be aimed at air conditioners, heaters, and other
sources of heat or cold.
