Installation Instructions

Please read all instructions before installing

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

RW3U603 Multi-way Wall Switch Vacancy Sensors are designed to replace

standard single pole and multi-way (3-way, 4-way) switches. They are ideal for

any room with multiple entries such as living and dining rooms, family rooms,

bedrooms, bathrooms, hallways, and any other indoor space where vacancy

sensor-based control with manual ON/OFF capability are desirable.

Like standard switches, you can press the ON/OFF button to turn the light

or fan (controlled load) ON and OFF. Unlike standard switches, the RW3U603

automatically turns OFF the controlled load after the coverage area has been

vacant for a period of time (Time Delay). If motion is detected within 30 seconds

after it automatically turns OFF, the RW3U603 automatically turns the load back

ON.

The RW3U603 can be wired with up to three additional RW3U603s for multi-

way Manual ON/OFF of one or several loads (up to one load connected to each

RW3U603). It can also be wired to up to four TM870STM single pole momentary

wall switches for multi-way Manual-ON/OFF Automatic-OFF control of one load.

Lighted Switch

To help you locate the RW3U603 in a dark room, the green LED illuminates the

ON/OFF button while the controlled load is OFF. When the controlled load is ON,

the LED is OFF.

Time Delay

The RW3U603 keeps the load ON until no motion is detected by any of the related

RW3U603s for the time delay period. The time delay can be selected by the user

during set up. It can be adjusted to any of these ﬁxed values:15 seconds/

5 minutes/15 minutes/30 minutes. We recommend that the time delay be the

same in all sensors related to the same load. This makes it easier to understand

the multi-way control operation as well as trouble shooting. For additional

information on how to adjust it, please read the SENSOR ADJUSTMENT section

of this installation manual.

Coverage Area

The RW3U603 has a maximum coverage

range of 180 degrees and a coverage area

of 600 square feet (56 square meters). The

sensor must have a clear and unobstructed

view of the coverage area. Objects blocking

the sensor’s lens may prevent detection

thereby causing the light to turn OFF even

though someone is in the area.

Windows, glass doors, and other transparent barriers will

obstruct the sensor’s view and prevent detection.

INSTALLATION & WIRING

These instructions describe only the 3-way circuit applications. For information

about other applications, consult technical support.

WARNING

Disconnect power to the wall switch box by turning OFF

the circuit breaker or removing the fuse for the circuit before

installing the RW3U603, replacing lamps, or doing any electrical work.

1. Prepare the switch box.

After the power is turned OFF at the circuit breaker box, remove the existing

wall plate and mounting screws. Pull the old switch out from the wall box.

2. Identify the type of circuit.

You may connect the RW3U603 to a single pole or multi-way circuit. If you are

unable to clearly identify some or all of the wires mentioned in this manual,

you should consult with a qualiﬁed electrician.

In a 3-way circuit (see Fig. 2), two traveler wires connect to both switches.

Another wire provides power from the circuit box to one of the switches. A wire

connects from one switch to the load. A ground wire may also be connected to

a ground terminal on the old switches. A neutral wire should also be present in

both wall boxes.

CAUTION

For your safety: Connecting a proper ground to the sensor

provides protection against electrical shock in the event of certain

fault conditions. If a proper ground is not available, consult with

a qualiﬁed electrician before continuing installation.

3. Prepare the Wires.

Tag the wires currently connected to the existing switch

so that they can be identiﬁed later. Disconnect the wires.

Make sure the insulation is stripped off of the wires to

expose their copper cores to the length indicated by the

“Strip Gage,” in Fig. 3. (approx. 1/2 inch).

4. Wire the sensor.

Twist the existing wires together with the wire leads on the RW3U603 sensor(s)

as indicated in either step 4a or 4b. Cap wires securely using wire nuts.
