Revision A 3
SECTION 1
Introduction to STE-8000 sensors
This section provides a description of the KMC Controls STE-8001
and STE-8201 wall sensors. It also introduces safety information.
Review this material before installing or operating the sensors.
Models STE-8001 and STE-8201 are wall-mounted, temperature sensor for use
with KMC BAC-8000 series VAV controllers. Key features include the following:
◆Integrated operator interface ready to use with BAC-8000 series VAV
controllers
◆Large LCD display
◆Simple three-button interface
◆Continuously displays temperature and time
◆Separate password protection for user and commissioning functions
◆Use as a service tool to set up BAC-8000 series VAV controllers
◆Optional motion sensor to detect space occupancy
Note
An STE-8000 series sensor will display time if the controller to which it is
attached has been synchronized with system time within the previous 24
hours.

Safety
considerations KMC Controls assumes the responsibility for providing you a safe product and
safety guidelines during its use. Safety means protection to all individuals who
install, operate, and service the equipment as well as protection of the
equipment itself. To promote safety, we use hazard alert labeling in this manual.
Follow the associated guidelines to avoid hazards.
Danger
Danger represents the most severe hazard alert. Bodily harm or death will
occur if danger guidelines are not followed.
Warning
Warning represents hazards that could result in severe injury or death.
Caution
Caution indicates potential personal injury or equipment or property damage
if instructions are not followed.
Note
Notes provide additional information that is important.
Detail
Provides programing tips and shortcuts that may save time.

SECTION 2
Installing STE-8000 sensors
This section provides important instructions and guidelines for
installing the STE-8000 series sensors. Carefully review this
information before installing the controllers.
Installing the sensors includes the following topics that are covered in this
section.
◆Planning for motion sensing on page 7
◆Rough-in preparation on page 8
◆Installing the sensors on page 8
◆Maintenance on page 9
Planning for
motion sensing For STE-8201 only—Mount the STE-8201 sensor on a wall that will have an
unobstructed view of the typical traffic in the coverage area. When choosing a
location, do not install the sensor in the following areas.
◆Behind curtains or other obstructions
◆In locations that will expose it to sunlight or heat sources
◆Near a heating/cooling duct.
For details on the coverage pattern, see Specifications on page 4.
The effective detection range is approximately 10 meters or 33 feet. Factors that
may reduce the range include:
◆The difference between the surface temperature of the object and the
background temperature of the room is too small.
◆Object movement in a direct line toward the sensor.
◆Very slow or very fast object movement.
◆Obstructions as shown in the illustration Typical motion sensing coverage area
on page 7.
Illustration 2-1 Typical motion sensing coverage area

Rough-in preparation

False detections may be triggered by:
◆The temperature inside the detection range suddenly changes because of
the entry of cold or warm air from an air-conditioning or heating unit.
◆The sensor being directly exposed to sunlight, an incandescent light, or
other source of far-infrared rays.
◆Small animal movement.
Rough-in
preparation Complete rough-in wiring at each sensor location prior to sensor installation.
This includes the following.
◆Routing the connecting cable from the sensor to a controller.
◆If required, install the appropriate backplate. See Accessories on page 4 for
model numbers.
Connect the STE-8000 series sensor to a controller with a standard Ethernet cable
with RJ-45 connectors on each end. Maximum cable length is 75 feet (22.9
meters). Plenum-rated preassembled cables are recommended.
Installing the
sensors To install the sensor on a backplate, do the following:
1. Turn the Allen screws in the base of the NetSensor clockwise until they
clear the cover. Swing the sensor away from the mounting base to remove
it.
2. Route the Ethernet cable through the mounting base.
3. Fasten the mounting base directly to a 2 x 4 inch outlet box or a backplate
with the Allen screws toward the floor.

4. Insert the Ethernet cable coming from the base into the sensor.
5. Place the top of the sensor over the top of the mounting base and swing it
down over the Allen screw brackets. Be careful not to pinch any wiring.
6. Back the Allen screws out of the brackets until they engage the sensor cover
and hold it in place.
Maintenance Remove dust as necessary from holes in top and bottom. Clean the display with
soft, damp cloth and mild soap.
