WATT STOPPER WD-180 (01) PDF SUMMARY:

What should I do if the lights will not turn on and the LED flashes with body motion?

1. Press the Auto/Off button to the auto position.
2. Check all wire connections.
3. For technical support call 1(800)879-8585.

What should I do if the lights will not turn on and the LED does not flash?

1. Make sure the main circuit breaker is on.
2. Check all wire connections.
3. For technical support call 1(800)879-8585.

What should I do if the lights will not turn off?

1. Depending on the time delay setting, there can be up to a 30 minute time delay after the last occupancy motion is detected.
2. To test if unit is operating properly, set time delay to minimum and move out of the sensor’s view. Lights should turn off after 30 seconds.
3. For technical support call 1(800)879-8585.

How can I stop the sensor from sensing motion outside detection areas?

• Opaque adhesive tape is included with the sensor and can be used to limit the detection areas. See “Masking the lens”.

What will happen if the Auto/Off button is pressed in rapid succession?

Rapid successive pressing of the Auto/Off button will cause a delay in proper function.

How do I test and adjust the unit?

1. With a phillips screwdriver, turn time delay trimpot (see diagram) to minimum (all the way counterclockwise).
2. Temporarily secure the switch to the wall box.
3. Turn on power to the switch at circuit breaker and allow a one minute warm-up.
4. Test the unit by pushing the Auto/Off button to the auto position to turn lights on. Leave the room and lights should go off after 30 seconds.
5. Adjust the time delay trimpot to desired setting, between 30 seconds to 30 minutes (clockwise increases time). For most applications, about 10 minutes is recommended.
6. Align wide holes on attached metal bracket with holes in wall box and secure switch with screws provided.
7. Install cover plate to switch assembly with provided screws.
8. Push the Auto/Off button to the auto position to turn lights on.

What precautions should I take when adjusting the time delay or when the switch is unsecured?

Turn off power to the switch at the circuit breaker.

What is the voltage for the WD-170 and WD-180?

• WD-170: 120VAC, 60Hz
• WD-180: 277VAC, 60Hz

What is the load rating for the WD-170 and WD-180?

• @120VAC: 10–500W ballast or incandescent load
• @277VAC: 10–500W ballast load

What should I use with tungsten?

Dims incandescent lamps

What should I use with Ballasts?

Use with Advance® Mark X™ or Philips Ecotron® electronic dimming ballasts (line voltage forward phase-cut dimming ballasts).

What is the dimmer adjustment?

5%–100%

What is the time delay adjustment?

30 sec.–30 min.

What is the unit description for the WD-170 and WD-180?

The Watt Stopper’s WD-170 and WD-180 are dimmable passive infrared wall switches that turn lighting systems on and off based on occupancy in the controlled area. A dimming slider adjusts the light level from minimum to maximum. The switches work with the Advance® Mark X™or Philips Ecotron® electronic dimming ballasts (ballasts that have line voltage forward phase-cut dimming control). The WD-170 also works with incandescent fixtures. The sensors feature a hard vandal resistant lens which allows them to be used in a wide range of applications, including public spaces.

How do the WD-170 and WD-180 sensors operate?

The WD-170 and WD-180 sensors turn lights on when a person enters the controlled area. Lights turn on to the level set with the dimming slider. The dimming slider does not turn the lights off, it allows users to increase or decrease the light level. The lights remain on while the space is occupied. When the space is vacated and the adjustable time delay of 30 seconds to 30 minutes (set during installation) elapses, the lights turn off. The lights can be manually turned off at any time by pressing the Auto/Off button.

What are the coverage patterns for the WD-170 and WD-180?

The WD-170 and WD-180 will cover up to 300 sq ft. The recommended coverage for typical desktop activity is 150 sq ft. The sensor has a two-tiered, multi-cell viewing Fresnel lens with a 180° field of view.

How do I install the WD-170 and WD-180 switches?

The WD-170 and WD-180 switches can be connected to single or multiple loads, up to 500 watts maximum.

1. Make sure that power has been turned off at circuit breaker.
2. Connect leads to sensor with UL listed wire connectors (BLACK to line, GREEN to ground, RED to load).
3. Do not attach switch to wall box at this time. See “Adjustments”.

What will happen if the ground is not tightly secured?

The sensor will not work!

What precautions should I take before wiring switches?

Turn power off at the circuit breaker. Always follow proper precautions when working with or near high voltage.

How do I mask the lens?

Opaque adhesive tape is supplied so that sections of the sensor’s view can be masked. This allows you to eliminate coverage in unwanted areas. Since masking removes bands of coverage, remember to take this into account when trouble-shooting.
