ABOUT MOTION SENSOR
Congratulations on purchasing the Motion Sensor. This indoor/outdoor motion sensor will turn INSTEON-
controlled lights and devices on and off in response to movement around your home. The sensor also contains a
photocell, allowing you to configure the unit to only turn your devices on at night.
Suggested Applications:
•Turn your driveway or front porch lights on when visitors approach
•Have your fountain always on when you are at home and off when you are away
•Save money by having HVAC and lighting automatically go into energy saving mode when no one is
around
What is INSTEON?
Since its inception in 2005, INSTEON has become a best-selling home-control networking technology, offering
more reliability and flexibility than any other home management system on the market. INSTEON systems are
simple, reliable, and affordable. Simple, because each device takes mere minutes to install. Reliable, because
every INSTEON device works as a network repeater, ensuring your commands will not be lost. Affordable,
because INSTEON can be integrated into any number of products easily and at a very low cost. An INSTEON
home grows in value with every INSTEON device you add, making life more convenient, safe, and fun.
Key Motion Sensor Features
•Automatically turns on up to 30 INSTEON-controlled lights or appliances when motion is detected
•Automatically turns off lights and devices after motion stops (adjustable anywhere between 30 seconds and
2 hours)
•Optional night-only mode keeps lights from turning on during the day
•Adjustable high/low motion sensitivity provides flexible placement
•Adjustable day/night threshold
•Optional dusk/dawn lighting control using a built-in photocell

HOW TO INSTALL MOTION SENSOR
Choosing a Location for Motion Sensor
When selecting a location for Motion Sensor, keep in mind the following:
•Reflective Surfaces – Do not aim the detector at reflective surfaces, such as mirrors or windows, as this
may distort the coverage pattern or reflect sunlight directly onto the detector
•Air Flow – Avoid locations that are subject to direct high air flow, such as near an air duct outlet
•Moisture – Do not locate the detector near sources of steam or oil
•Sunlight – Do not aim the detector so that it will receive direct or reflected, such as from a mirror,
sunlight
•Obstruction – Do not limit the coverage with large objects within the detection area such as plants or
filing cabinets
•Pet Rejection – Do not aim the detector at an area which a pet has access to. Do not place furniture or
objects higher than 3 feet within 6 feet of the detector, in case a pet climbs or jumps up onto the
furniture. r
•Fireplace – Do not locate the detector near a fireplace due to the light and heat
•Snow and Ice – Snow or ice on the Fresnel lens may interfere with Motion Sensor’s ability to detect
motion
•Dirt – Dirt on the Fresnel lens may interfere with Motion Sensor’s ability to detect motion

Motion Sensor Owner’s Manual

Installing Motion Sensor
1) RF-only devices require at least one dual-band INSTEON product for communication. For the best INSTEON
network performance, be sure you have properly installed at least two dual-band INSTEON products.
2) Use a small Phillips screwdriver to remove the screw and
cover from the battery compartment on the back of
Motion Sensor and attach the included 9 Volt battery
3) Wait 5 minutes for the circuit to stabilize
4) Confirm Motion Sensor is working properly by tapping
the Set button a couple times while watching the front of
the unit
A red LED behind the sensor lens should flash each time
the Set button is tapped
If the LED does not flash, Motion Sensor is detecting
motion. Make sure nothing is moving in front of the
unit and try tapping the Set button again.
NOTE: Do not replace the cover on Motion Sensor until you have Linked all of the desired Responders and set up
any desired setup modes.
Mounting Motion Sensor
1) Use the two included screws to secure the swivel mounting bracket at the desired location
2) Slide Motion Sensor onto the swivel mounting bracket (sliding the unit to the right) until you hear a click
3) Aim Motion Sensor towards the area in which you wish to detect motion (detection area)
4) Test by walking through the detection area
The Responder should turn on when motion is sensed and turn off one minute after the last motion is
detected
Important Note about INSTEON Networks; Split Single-Phase vs. 3-Phase Installation
For the best INSTEON network performance, be sure you have properly installed at least dual-band INSTEON
products. INSTEON has only been officially tested in a split single-phase residential environment, but has been
known to work in many 3-phase systems, where three dual-band INSTEON products are used (one on each
phase). However, due to the potential complexity of its troubleshooting, SMART Tech Support is unable to
support INSTEON in 3-phase environments.
HOW TO USE MOTION SENSOR
How Motion Sensor Works
When motion is detected:
The red Motion Sensor red LED should flash
An ON command should be sent to Linked Responders
Motion Sensor should begin its Automatic Off Countdown
Whenever motion is sensed during the countdown, the countdown will be reset to easily allow you to
create “occupied” versus “unoccupied” modes for your home
When the Automatic Off Countdown expires, Motion Sensor should send an OFF command to Linked Responders

Motion Sensor Owner’s Manual

HOW TO SET UP MOTION SENSOR TO REMOTELY CONTROL AN INSTEON
DEVICE
Linking Motion Sensor to Control an INSTEON Device
To use Motion Sensor as an INSTEON Controller, follow these steps to Link Motion Sensor and an INSTEON
Responder (the device you wish to control with Motion Sensor) together. Refer to your INSTEON Responder’s
Owner’s Manual for detailed instructions on how to properly install it and Link it to Motion Sensor.
The following will work for the most common INSTEON devices:
1) Set Motion Sensor to Linking Mode by pressing & holding the Set button for 3 seconds
The red Motion Sensor LED (located behind the sensor lens) should begin blinking
You will have 4 minutes to complete steps 2 and 3 before Linking Mode automatically times out.
2) At the Responder, set it to the state you wish to be activated from Motion Sensor (turn it on if you wish it to
be on or off if you wish it to be off when Motion Sensor detects movement)
•If the Responder is a multi-scene device (e.g., Keypad), tap the Scene button you wish to control until its
LED illuminates
3) Press & hold the Responder's Set button for 3 seconds
The red LED should stop blinking
4) Confirm that Linking was successful by tapping the Set button on Motion Sensor
The red LED should flash each time the Set button is tapped and the Responder should turn on and off
Unlinking a Controlled INSTEON Device from Motion Sensor
If you are no longer going to use an INSTEON device that has previously been Linked to Motion Sensor, it is very
important that you Unlink it. Otherwise, Motion Sensor will retry any commands intended for the unused
INSTEON device, thus slowing down your system.
The following will work on the most common INSTEON devices:
1) Set Motion Sensor to Linking Mode by pressing & holding the Set button for 3 seconds
The red Motion Sensor LED should begin blinking
2) Set Motion Sensor to Unlinking Mode by pressing & holding the Set button for another 3 seconds
The red LED should continue blinking (blink pattern may be different)
You will have 4 minutes to complete the next step before Unlinking Mode automatically times out.
3) Press & hold the Responder’s Set button for 3 seconds
The red LED should stop blinking
4) Confirm that Unlinking was successful by tapping the Set button on Motion Sensor
The Responder should no longer respond

Motion Sensor Owner’s Manual

HOW TO CREATE AN INSTEON SCENE
Creating an INSTEON Scene
INSTEON scenes let you activate dramatic lighting moods with the press of just one button. For example, you
can set all your lights in a scene to dim to 50%, or turn certain lights on while turning others off, all with the tap
of a button on a Controller.
INSTEON scenes are very easy to set up – just Link more than one INSTEON Responder to the same On/Off or
Scene button on an INSTEON Controller. Then, when you press any of the Linked buttons on the Controller, all of
the INSTEON devices Linked in the scene will respond as a group.
To set up an INSTEON scene, you can individually Link each device to your Controller (see your device’s Owner’s
Manual for instructions on how to Link the device to a Controller). Or, save time and create multiple Links.
ADVANCED FEATURES OF MOTION SENSOR
Adjusting Aim and Sensitivity of Motion Sensor
1) Tap the Set button on Motion Sensor until the Responders turn off
2) Within 10 seconds, walk well out of the detection area
3) Wait 20 seconds
4) Walk into and near your detection area
The red Motion Sensor LED should flash upon initial motion, and then once every 8 seconds during motion
•If the LED does not flash while you are moving within the desired detection area, re-aim the
Sensor (usually by pointing Motion Sensor up)
•If the LED flashes while you are moving outside the desired detection area, try:
i. Aiming Motion Sensor to decrease the range (usually by pointing Motion Sensor
down)
ii. Placing Jumper 1 on both pins. See Setting the Jumpers.

Motion Sensor Owner’s Manual
Page 8 of 13
Setting the Jumpers
Jumpers are small plastic “boxes” that act as a switch. When installed on two pins, the switch is “on”. When
installed on one pin, the switch is “off”.
You will need a pair of needle-nose pliers to install or remove pins.
Jumper 1 – Sensitivity
1) To reduce the Motion Sensor detection range by
approximately 33%, carefully remove the left-most jumper
from the single pin it is installed on and reinstall it on both
pins.
2) Tap the Set button on Motion Sensor
3) Wait 10 seconds, and then activate motion to establish the
new setting
Jumper 2 – Disable LED
1) To disable the LED (but will still operate during setup),
install Jumper 2 on both pins
2) Tap the Set button on Motion Sensor
3) Wait 10 seconds, and then activate motion to establish the
new setting
Jumper 3 – Night-Only Mode
1) If you wish to have Motion Sensor operate only when it is dark, install Jumper 3 on both pins
2) Tap the Set button on Motion Sensor
3) Wait 10 seconds, and then activate motion to establish the new setting
NOTE: It takes 3.5 minutes (or seven Set button taps) to detect the difference between night and day. See “Right-
Dial – Day/Night Threshold” in Adjusting the Modes.
Jumper 4 – On-Only Mode
1) If you wish to disable the Automatic Off Countdown (not send OFF commands to Responders), install
Jumper 4 on both pins
2) Tap the Set button on Motion Sensor
3) Wait 10 seconds, and then activate motion to establish the new setting
Jumper 5 – Remote (Software) Management
1) If you wish to manage the Motion Sensor settings via INSTEON software, install Jumper 5 on both pins
2) Press & hold the Set button on Motion Sensor to enter Linking Mode and allow the software to access the
settings

Motion Sensor Owner’s Manual
Page 9 of 13
Adjusting the Modes
You can adjust the amount of time in the Automatic Off Countdown or the light level of the Day/Night Threshold. You
will need a small Phillips screwdriver to adjust the dials.
Left Dial –Automatic Off Countdown
Adjust the dial to the desired time duration of the Automatic Off Countdown. Turning the dial all the way counter-
clockwise sets the countdown to 30 seconds. Turning the dial all the way clockwise sets the countdown to 2 hours.
Turning the dial anywhere in between results in a proportional difference.
By default, the Automatic Off Countdown is set to 1 minute.
Right-Dial – Day/Night Threshold
The Day/Night Threshold corresponds with Jumper 3 (see Setting the Jumpers). Turning the dial will choose the specific
light level which Motion Sensor will use to determine what is night and day. If the dial is turned all the way to the right
(clockwise), Motion Sensor will read “night”, no matter how much sunshine there is. If the dial is turned all the way to
the left (counter-clockwise), Motion Sensor will read “day”, no matter how dark it is. Turning the dial anywhere in
between results in a proportional difference.
To test the Day/Night Threshold:
1) Make sure Jumper 3 is installed on both pins. See Setting the Jumpers.
2) Tap the Set button on Motion Sensor seven times
If Motion Sensor reads the current level as “night”, it should turn on the Responder on the first sensed motion
If Motion Sensor reads the current level as “day”, the LED should flash, but not turn on the Responder
Restoring Power to Motion Sensor
Motion Sensor stores all of its settings, such as Links to other INSTEON devices, On-Levels/Ramp Rates, etc., with non-
volatile memory. Because settings are saved in this non-volatile memory, they will not be lost in the event of a power
failure.
Additionally, in the even of a power loss, Motion Sensor will return the load to its last-known powered state once
power is restored.
Resetting Motion Sensor to its Factory Default Settings
The factory reset procedure can be used to clear the Motion Sensor memory and restore its factory default settings.
This procedure will clear the unit of all INSTEON Links.
1) If you are using Motion Sensor to control any INSTEON devices, Unlink those devices from Motion Sensor. See
Unlinking a Controlled INSTEON Device from Motion Sensor.
2) Remove the battery from Motion Sensor
3) Wait at least 15 seconds
4) While pressing & holding the Set button, reinsert the battery into Motion Sensor (ensure the battery is properly
oriented), making sure not to let up on the Set button
After a few seconds, the red Motion Sensor LED should turn on
5) Once the battery has been reinserted, continue to hold down the Set button for 3 seconds
The red LED should turn off
6) Test that Motion Sensor no longer controls any INSTEON devices by tapping the Set button on Motion Sensor
Factory reset is complete. Motion Sensor is now reset to all the default settings and is ready for fresh programming
and use.
NOTE: Unless, they have been Unlinked, INSTEON devices that have been previously Linked to Motion Sensor will still
respond, even after a factory reset. The reason is that the INSTEON devices themselves have not been Unlinked from
Motion Sensor. See Unlinking a Controlled INSTEON Device from Motion Sensor .

ABOUT INSTEON
Understanding Why an INSTEON Network Is Reliable
INSTEON messages travel throughout the home via power line on the existing house wiring, or wirelessly via RF
(radio frequency) using dual-band INSTEON products. As the messages make their way to the INSTEON devices
being controlled, they are picked up and retransmitted by all other INSTEON devices along the way. This method
of communicating, called a mesh network, is very reliable because each additional INSTEON device helps to
support the overall network.
To further ensure reliability, every INSTEON device confirms that it has received a command. If an INSTEON
Controller does not receive this confirmation, it will automatically retransmit the command up to five times.
Search for dual-band INSTEON products at: www.smartproline.com.
Further Enhancing Reliability
As signals travel via the power line or RF throughout the home, they naturally become weaker the farther they
travel. The best way to overcome signals getting weaker is to increase the coverage of the mesh network by
introducing more INSTEON devices.
It is possible that some audio-video products, computers, power strips or other electrical equipment may
attenuate INSTEON signals on the power line. You can temporarily unplug suspected devices to test whether the
INSTEON signal improves. If it does, then you can plug in filters that will permanently fix the problem.
Using Dual-Band INSTEON Products to Upgrade Your Network
What are phases?
The majority of single-family homes in North America have two phases (or “legs”) of 110 volts coming into their
electricity panels. From the panel, they are distributed throughout the home, providing power to outlets and
wall switches. These phases come together in some parts of the home to provide 220 volts of power to large
appliances, such as an electric oven or pool pump.
Why do I need to bridge these phases?
Single-band power line devices send commands via the home’s electricity, but only on a single phase. If the
command is intended for a device on the opposite phase, there is a good chance the command will go
unnoticed. Installing dual-band INSTEON products, on each phase will allow for devices to communicate
between the two phases via radio frequency (RF).
Dual-band INSTEON products embody the full potential of a true INSTEON mesh network. Taking the power line
band signal and working in conjunction with the RF band signal, its dual-band function plays out in two ways:
•Phase bridger – a receiver of commands, reacting to and translating signals sent from one power phase
to the opposite via RF
•Signal repeater – a participant in an INSTEON network, repeating commands intended for other devices
whether those commands are generated from RF or power line-only devices
While using at least one dual-band INSTEON product is required when using an RF-only device, at least two dual-
band INSTEON products are recommended to ensure reliable communication across two-phase home wiring
systems. For larger applications, it is recommended to install at least one dual-band INSTEON product for every
750 – 1,000 square feet.
